GEORGE MAY
RETURNS AFTER
SUMMER ABROAD

George May, head Of the music
department of Hardin College, who
arrived in Mexico Wednesday after
spending three months abroad, was
one of the forty Americans, chosen
by the French Government to study
in Paris this summer at its expense.
1t was a honor 10 receive mi Of these
scholarships as the matter Of select
ing those who should go was left to
great artists in various parts Of the
country. Mr. May was chosen by
Rudolph GAM. Besides the forty
given scholarships, forty other AM
orleans studied there this summer.
paying their own expenses.
The instructors were the greatest
artists Of France and Europe, who
are members of the faculty of the
Paris Conservatory. Mr.. May was
given lessons by Isadore Phillip at
his home and also byAIbert Wolff at
the opera at Paris.
During his time abroad Mr.. May
made short trips to Italy, England,
Switzerland and Germany where he
found conditions almost unbelievable
bad. Many persons, who before the
war lived comfortably, and some of
them in luxury, are now in poverty.
This is especially true of artists and
musicians, as the people have neither
the money to pay to hear concerts or
to take lessons. The majority Of the
students in Berlin now are Amer
leans.
Mr.. May met and talked with many
of the eminent European musicians
this summer and is arranging to give
Mexico tehpnest Artists Course that
the city has ever had. Although ar
rangements have not been completed
by Mr.. May, pending his return to
Mexico and ascertaining the situation
here, it is practically certain that
there will be five concerts which will
include two concerts by the st. Louis
Symphony Orchestra, a piano recital
by Rudolph CAM and a concert by
Miss Margaret Namara, who has
been singing with the Chicago Grand
Opera Company and also with the
Paris Opera. Mr.. May has interview
ed Madame Schumann-Heink the
worlds greatest contralto, and finds
that it will be possible to get her to
sing in Mexico if the people are in
terested enough in the project. A
concert by a great violinist, either
Elman, Thibaud or Francis Mcmillan
will complete the we'll rounded course
Mr.. May found that 1t would be i'm
possible to get either Kreisler or John
Mccormack. Kreisler will be in the
United States for only two months
and will go from st. Louis directly to
Denver. Mccormack declares that il
is doubtful if he will give concerts
this year on account Of trouble with
his throat and if he does, will no
sing oftener than once a week.

ROYALISTS PLOTTING
ASSAULT ON BERLIN!

Harden was one OF the bitterest
foes of the monarchists in Germany.
In his newspaper ''Die Zukunft" he
has recently launched bitter attacks
against the attempts OF monarchists
to return TO power.
Die ZulSunft was suppressed In
1911. after the editor had charged
the kaiser with responsibility for tho
world war. Up until that time he
had bitterly arraigned imperiaiists.
Consistent assaults on the kaiser and
against submarine warfare made
Harden well known in America.
Articles eulogizing President WILL
son and his peace proposals were
printed broadcast in America. Har-

comes from Semitic parents. He was

Heavy Loss Due to Fourth
Celebration

With an average Of one bIaxe
every IL minutes. from midnight

loss bids fair TO mount 20 monu-

Fifty-one fire alarms, most Of
them resulting from firccraekers.
skyrockets and the like. were
turned In between midnight and
1890 a. M, and after that they
started coming faster. as the
crescendo Of patriotic noise rose
higher and higher.
While most Of the fires were ex
tinguIshed In short order by the city
apparatus. the total loss at noon was
high in the four figures and was
steadily increasing.
The rest OF the city was out a'pic
nicling-but the firemen celebrated
the holiday with double work. to
the tune OF loud imprecations against
small boys and the lack Of law
pyrotechnic displays.
The fact that many residences
and in some cases whole blocks
were vacant for the day added to the
fire peril
Fires that otherwise might cas-
ily have been extinguished by
the householders Themselves
when a roof. for instance, was ig'
nited by sparks from Roman
candle--spread so before they
were discovered that II was nee

the roof.
Most OF the roof cres. however.

as the Independence day parade was

was quickly extinguished.
