WHEN JENNY LIND CAME.

One of the most dramatic and most
pleasing incidents that ever occurred in
the city of Washington was the night
back in the forties-when the golden
voiced Jenny Lind gave her first concert.
Never before had so large and dIstin-
guished an audience assembled at the ma
tional capital to hear a singer. The
building in which the Swedish Nightn-
gale" made her appearance was located
on the present site of the National Thea
tire on Pennsylvania Avenue. Present at
this concert were the President of the
United States, and his wife, members of
the Cabinet, foreign Ambassadors, Sena-
tors, congressman, and society in gen.
eral.
Seated in the front row were two men
who have won permanent place in
American history. One was John How
ard Payne, author of "Home, Sweet
Home" and the other was the great
Daniel Webster.
When called back for an encore after
her first song, Miss Lind smilingly walked
to the edge OF the stage and, looking di-
rectly at Payne, sang his great compost
ton, "Home, Sweet Home" The de-
monstration made by the delighted au-
dience lasted for many minutes. Payne
was visibly embarrassed as a result of at
tracing so much attention. His friend,
Daniel Webster, however, was right in
his element. AT exactly the right mo
ment he arose and made profound bow
to the sweet singer and then bowed to
Payne. This graceful acknowledgements
on the part of the popular Daniel natural
ly resulted in a renewal of the applause.
Jenny Lind was born in Sweden in 1921
one hundred and one years ago-and
died in London in 1887. At seventeen she
appeared on the operatic stage of her
home city. She was brought to this
country under the management of the
late Snowman, P. T. Barnum. She gave
% concerts throughout this country to
immense audiences. The box office re-
cepts we're S7l2,000, her share being
S176. O00
In 1851 she was married in Boston to
Otto Goldschmidt, pianist and COM
poser. Shortly thereafter she went to
Europe, where she appeared only oc-
casionaly in concerts and oratorios. Dur
ing the latter years of her life she lived
practically in retirement.

Rev. and Mrs. George S. Mills who has
been teaching and doing administrative
work in Robert College, Constantinople,
since his graduation from Dartmouth in
the class of 'l9, is coming home the COM
ing summer, the last of August or early
in September Mr.. Mills was appointed
registrar of the college at the beginning
of this year and made secretary of the
faculty. He has been successful in his
position, and it has been offered him per-
manently, but he has decided he wishes
to do his work in this country. He is
planning to spend the summer in travel,
going across Europe via the Balkans. His
itinerary will take him from CoDstan-
tinople by boat to Varna, which is in Bull
garia, on the Black sea, and from there to
Sofia and then to Belgrade. From Bel
grade he takes Danube steamer to Bu-
dapest, and train from there to Vienna.
Thence to Munich and Ober ammergsu

leisurely with some days in each place.
He expects to spend little time in Ger
many, especially. III tne Nhlho ceioh, anu
plans also to 60 to Holland and Belgium.
Mr.. Mills has had an unusual opportunity
for seeing countries and places in the
three years abroad, having given all his
summer vacations to travel. The first
summer he spent mainly in Egypt, Pales-
tine, and Greece. Last year he visited
the Italian cities, and was some time In
Switzerland, and also for several weeks
in Paris and London, getting as far north
as the lake country of England and Scot
land and Edinburg. One novel experience
was flying by airplane from London to
Paris. At Oberammergau through the
introduction of friend to Frau Lang he
has been able tolsecure entertainment in
the home of Anton Lang, who is playing

OLD BUILDINGS
RETAIN VALUE
Wrecking Company Saves
Much Old Material From
Junk Pile,

Not so many years ago an old house
or building to be torn down was
nothing but junk. but today all that is
different, according to p. A. Phsterer,
president Of the Western Wrecking
Company 1882 w. Washington st.
Economic conditions have changed
in recent years, or at least, there is a
far greater appreciation of those con
ditions," he said 1T is now realized
that there is a tremendous economic
waste in the sheer destruction of an
old building which probably contains
many parts that still are capable of
use.
I'm fact the salvage from build
ings frequently is a great surprise to
persons not familiar with the busi-
ness. We have been in business ten
years and our activities have Gov
cred a wide range. We buy and wreck
buildings OF all kinds and are fully
prepared to handle this work in the
most effective way.
we also have buHt up n big bust
ness in lumber, lath, doors, Ibeams,
brick. the pipe. fittings, bath fix
lures and general building material.
Persons who have construction work
to do would do we'll to remember that
there is a great amount OF material
from old buildings which is just as
we'll suited to the nee0s OF new work
as brand-new material. A great saw
ing can be effected by making use Of
material of this character carefully
selected by experts who know what TO
take and what to discard.
We are in position to give adj
vice on subjects Of this kind and
gladly will do SO The wrecking bust
ness has assumed large proportions
in the past few years, and from a hap
hazard. aimless sort Of affair. it has
grown to a point where Il takes its
place as a recognized activity in in
dustrial life OF a city"

upon to do"
President Foley has had wide ex
perience in the business field and thir-
teen years of his early life was spent
In building and repairing railroads. In
those days railroad work was one of
the biggest activities in America. for
