Paul ALTHOUSE
GRE DTS WOMAN 6
CLUBS IN MUSIC
Tenor Declares That Wom-
ans Organizations Have
Done Great Work for
American Music.

Paul Althouse. the famous tenor
who appears here February % at
the High school. recently expressed
some of his views on the present
state of music in America in an
important article that appeared in
Musical America" Part of this
article follows;
you hear It said often enough
that the attitude toward music
throughout this country is chang
ing from day to day. You hear it
said so often that l suppose it
sounds like buncombe. But it isn't.
I've seen q very decided change
for the better in the years I've
been concertizing. and not the least
evidence Of this I find in the new
cordially of the business men. An
artist with n Galli-Curci or Caruso
or Mccormick reputation can, of
course, pack any house anywhere
at any time; other artists, especial
ly Americana, must depend on the
favor of the particular community
in which they are to appear. The
women's clubs have done the big
gest work of any single force in this
country for the populari2ation Of
music, and one should give them
heartiest praise. But they are no
longer what they were a few years
since, in more than one city. the
only force for better music.
Music, once admitted to n typi-
cal American city, weaves itself in
to the popular life inextricably.
While one is often asked for oper-
attic arias-I've had q request for
the Tiebestod,' yes, and for instru-
mental compositions too!-the gem
eral American public Is not like
that element in the big centers
which supports the opera. Ameri-
can operate ENTERPRISES would be
fine; granted. But we simply
haven't got any. as yet. The hope
for the present generation Of sing
ers in this country is the concert
field. There they come into closest
touch with their countrymen. In
stead of parasitic opera houses,
high school auditoriums are gem
orally the scene of recitals. beyond
the extreme east. These auditori-
ums seat from 500 to 1900. Special
rates are offered to the school chill
dren, and then in Texas and Okla
homa one finds artist-courses Of
fered in the private schools and
colleges as part of the regular cur
riculum. For SO the students may
hear eight or ten really first class
concerts"
The tickets for the Althouse re-
cital can be reserved at the Apollo
Music Shop.

EAST LAS VEGAS HAS A TOTAL
OF 1S7,32S.79 SQUARE YARDS
OF PAVING, SURVEY REVEALS
ESPECIAL CORRESPONDENTS TO MORNING SovRNAID

succeeded in getting sufficient
bids from the most reputable
contractors to insure the best Of
work at the lowest possible price.
In the business district, where
the concrete base was used, the
cost was s2.55 square yard for
paving, and rs cents a lineal
foot for curb and gutter. This
work was done in 1918. The 1919,
1920 and 1921 paving programs
an extremely advantageous price
was secured, as the figure was
agreed on before the after-war
rise in prices. A raise in freight
rates from SIS to $45 car on
rock from the quarries eight miles
away was responsible for an in
creased price of paving in the
residential sections. The first
residence streets contract was
1927 square yard for paving,
and SO cents lineal foot for
curb and gutter. The second was
$2.47 q square yard for paving
and s1,O5 a lineal foot for curb
and gutter.
Following are some interesting
figures on paving in East Las
Vegas, prepared by the city en-
gineer.
Number square yards paving,
137,329.79; lineal feet of curb and
gutter, 56,71s.S0; lineal feet alley

property, $40,752,72; assessment
against private property, 1884,

ing city property $432,694.53.
Petitions now are before the

ing Of 23 city blocks of streets in
the southern part of the city in

Bridge street and the streets
surrounding the plaza in the town

Greater Las Vegas an additional
mile of improved streets. There
are 90 blocks of paving in the
two towns. The East Las Vegas
paving was done by the New
Mexico Construction Company.

Agnes Ayres, who with Rodolph
Valentino, is featured in the new
Paramount picture, THE Sheik,"
says emphatically, mo" 1.-THE
Sheik" will be shown at the "B"
theater for three days, beginning
today.
tits worn out idea started by
someone who wanted to be
unique says Miss Ayres. I don't
believe a woman could ever learn
to love man who had been brutal
in the beginning. To me, at least.
1t seems that always, no matter
what happened. would remember
the past and that I could not real
ly care for such q man.
What right has a man to be
brutal or even dictatorial to his
wife or to the one girl he expects
to marry? Why should she endure
it? 1t would need tremendously
strong love to over come the feel
ing of repulsion, 1t seems to me-"
Edith M. Hull wrote 1.-THE
Sheik," which Monte Katterjohn
adapted to the screen. Her psy-
chology, according to the reports
received by the producers of the
picture, has awakened much con-
troversy among women particular
ly--some taking Miss Ayres' view
point, others differing in opinion,
and the photoplay is being awaited
with keen interest by the thou
sands who have read the novel.

Las Vegas, N. NJ, Feb. 90
The city of East Las Vegas has
total of 137,329.79 square yards
OF paving, all laid during the past
four years. The surface covered
is equivalent to TN miles Of
roadway, 16 feet In width.
The bitulithic type of paving
was used throughout the entire
improved area, and is proving to
be highly satisfactory. In the
business section, the base is Of
concrete, and in the residence
sections a crushed rock bound
base" was utilized. This latter
type of paving was adopted after
a study of paving in Ell Paso.
Some of II has been in use nearly
three years. and is giving good
service. The variety of rock
found hereabouts is pronounced
by City Engineer v. X. Jones as
being exactly what is required
for the "rock bound base" paving.
1t Is granite of the correct de-
gree of hardness to permit Of
long wear, yet 1t can be broken
easily into the required sizes for
the most satisfactory mixture,
Other cities having granite in
abundance are shipping in Las
Vegas granite because of its Pc
culiar adaptability to paving uses.
Because rock for base and sand
and gravel for cement curbing
and guttering are so easily and
cheaply obtained in Las Vegas,
this city has been able to pave
its streets at less cost, the city
engineer says, than other cities
in the country using a standard
paving. Mayor r. o. Blood and
the city council gave the paving
question the most careful consid-

Elaborate Mansion In Pittsburg Up
 For Sale
Edifice Built by Carnegie's Protege Which Outrivaled All Others May Be Convert
 ed Into an Apartment House

PITTSBURG, Pa, Jan. 10. The Peacock mansion-the most elaborate show-place castle ever built by Pitts burg millionaire is dragging it's feathers in the dust. Abandoped by it's family, which has gone to New York, and denuded of it's strange and splendid collection of furniture, tapes tries and art objects, speculation is rife here as to what will become or the house that was built to outrival all other millionaires' homes by the man who got into the good graces Of Andrew Carnegie in his heydey by selling him historic plaids.
 It was when Alexander R, Peacock cashed his Carnegie steel stock, which the canny ironmaster-in generous mood-had bestowed upon him. Corey and schwab prior to the formation of the U. s. Steel Corporation, that Pea cock found himself with $2O,OO0.O00.
 The accepted manner in those days for a new Pittsburg millionaire - there were some forty of them - to show his standing in the community was by building house. Peacock out did custom. He set house-mansion- castle building record. He bought couple of city blocks and upon one of them proceeded to erect house that had all the vagaries of architectice from the classical Doric to the Queen Anne and comprised all building ma terials from Carrara marble to Amer ican brick.
 Pittsburg marveled A hundred horses were kept. Everything was conducted on an elaborate scale.
 Peacock, the man who in selling historic Scotch plaids to Carnegie, made such an impression that Car negie put him to work selling steel did not lack for ideas. He adopted the peacock-one going forth grandly with a strutting tail-'on field vert as his coat-of-arms. The Pittsburg made coat-of-arms stares forth from every part of the house-it is set in mosaic, carved on the furniture that but recently was auctioned off, paint ed in windows and set off in balus- trades.
 The mansion is now for sale. It is said price of less than fifth of it's original cost would take the outfit peacocks and all. A public auction bereft the house of most of it's furn- ishings. And most of the trinkets- costly to their original owner-went for song.
 One local report says the mansion may be converted into an apartment house.
 At any rate-gone is the glory of the Peacock palace, the pride of Pitts burg during her pristine growth of millionaires!
