HAS MORAL WAY
 OF SINGING SAL0kIE
Was Salomoe wicked vamp Or just simple country gel Who was So sweet and wore guimpe Just like or own lil darling Nell;

/; NEW YORK. March 8. Jeritza, 1 new star of the Metropolitan Grand Opera Company and the sensation of the opera season, has entered the , controversy raging in operatic cir cles over the moral status of Sa- lome.
 Jeritza threw something of bomb by announcing she didn't think Sa- 1 lone immoral either as lady or an opera.
 AS pictured by Jeritza, speaking via her husband, Baron Pepper, of Vienna, poor Sal was merely mis- misunderstanding more than a simple small town girl who had nev- CT been told and was sweetly uncon- scious of committing an act ol nor" al turpitude when she vamped f{erod into staying John the Baptist and danced around with the apostle g bloody head on platter, Anyway Herod's court was sink of sin with bad influence on any young girl. JOUR OPERA TALL WRONG" AS for the dictum of the Metropoli- tan directors that "Salome," being q "rottenly immoral" opera, shall ne'er again darken their oprea house doors, Jeritza, who would have sung the title role had it been produced had nothing to say. Ghe way the opera has been produced in this country is all wrong in Jeritza's opinion, so her husband. the Baron, said.
 "There had been abuses here of the opera-so many abuses" said the Baron.
 "As Jeritza sang Salome in Vienna it was not immoral-no. AS pro- duced in this country it is immoral yes The conception of the opera here is not proper"
 i NO REFLECTION ON MARY But no reflection cast on Mary Garden-understand Mary and her Chicago company recently produced the opera here and Mary danced the dance of the seven wells and jazzed about with Johns head as it dripped with blood and everything.
 About Miss Gardens production Jeritza wishes to express no opinion, " | said the Baron Pepper.
 "Jeritza's conception of Salome is moral. No, she does not see Salome a wicked vampire. She sees Salome not conscious of her acts and ignor. ant like a simple child"
 Jeritza, according to the Baron Pepper, dances with Johns head covered and does not during the per formance of the opera touch the apostle
 "1f her performance had not been proper the church would have stopped the Viennese performance" he said
 But the Baron Pepper wants it understood Jeditza expresses no crit. icism of either the Metropolitan directors or Mary Garden-no.

Greathed by a criminal is the newest
aid to the French police in identify
ing malefactors. They scientifically
examine the air in which he oper-
ated, then examine the man, and
reach a definite answer to the ques-
! ton whether he breathed in that
room at a particular time. If by
chance the man eXpectorated while
at work, he can be traced as surely
as If he had left his calling card.

recent visit to Paris. 1t is based on
science applied to the detection and
Identification Of criminals. If the
Paris police wish to show that a
man was at a given place at given
hour. they do not spend days trying
to find witnesses. They prove it by
the air he breathed; by the clothes
! he wore, and by several other scien-
tiflc records which they say cannot
be denied. There is no room for
