WARBLERS SING ON
 STREETS OF PARIS
Women "Fauvettes" Make Melody on Street Corners-PeddIe Sheet
 Music

PARIS, March 9.-"The Warblers" are beginning their twenty-second year of singing in Paris.
 These warblers are not song birds, but song-women and yong girls who prefer the airs of Dupont and Beranger to Mon Homme" and "Jeen ali Marre," as sung by Mistinguett.
 In 1904 there were about 120 of these songsters in the capital. Ten years later, in 1914, there were more than 400 Even during war days, under the menace of Gothas and Big Berthas, the "Fauvettes" kept on sing ing with hearts not always gay.
 Working women, most of them, with natural French feeling for what is beautiful and in good taste, they are not only sensitive to melody but to fine verses. They are particularly fond of Lamartone and the old tunes of long ago.
 Sentimental songs are the favor ites," says Mme Raymond Barbaud, the directrice. "The women natural ly do not care much for patriotic airs"
 For those who wish to learn Paris latest tunes there are always the free lessons on the street corners at lunch con hour. Crowds gather around two or three musicians and singer who starts the air and urges the public to join in. One of them passes about a pile of copies, sold at franc apiece The butchers boy stops his peddling and buys a copy. The old market-wo- man puts her basket down long enough to sing a verse, and the little mindin cites have time to learn the whole song before o'clock sends them back humming to their workrooms in the Rue de la PaiX.

HAS WILLIAMS ROMANCE COME
 TO AN END?

DOORN, March 9-The honeymoon of William and Hermine has at last come to an end, in the opinion of the inhabitants of Doorn. The pleasant walks arm in arm along the solitary roads of the village, under the pro- tection of a captain of the Dutch gen. darmerie, ended abruptly several days ago. The disappearance of the couple from the village streets gave rise to numerous rumors to the effect that the former emperor was seriously ill, or that an attempt had been made upon his life, but investigation has failed to show any authority for either statement.
 For about three weeks it has been reported that deep discord existed be- signed was that William bore with diff ficulty the dictatorial tone of his wife who insisted that at the Castle every one, not excluding her husband, should act and conduct himself according to her ideas. Hence Hermine has been in constant hot water, for her attitude was resented. Nevertheless both Her mine and her daughter were present at dinner given on the occasion of Williams anniversary.
 This fact, however, seems to be es tablished. Since his marriage Will jam has become thinner and appears much older. All who have seen him during the past few days remark how ill he is looking and how feebly he walks.

REBELLION LARGELY DUE
 TO QUEST FOR ADVENTURE
 AND LACK OF EMPLOYMENT

Executions, carried out by the Government, have dampened the spirit of many adventursome youths, however. An American owner of a huge Irish estate states that upon his own lands there have dwelt for the last six months a band of Irreg- ulars who are known to him. For the most part they are boys who have grown up on surrounding farms.
 Boys Throw Rifles Away
 They have greeted the owner of the estate with respect and amiabil- ity, though they have known that he is apprised of their being Irregu- lars living upon his lands without authority. These youths, however, the American land owner states, have shown a complete change of heart of late.
 Reports of executions have reached them and as a result in the bottom of the estates lake there are no less than twenty rifles rusting. These rifles were thrown there by Irregu- lars, who deemed this the best way to rid themselves of any possibility Of execution on the grounds of un- lawfully bearing arms. Yet, these youths have not gone back to their farm homes. Instead, they continue to rove about the country, eking out an existence when and where they may. They have given up militarism for the life of the road, and they are doing this simply because they see no more attractive mode of life open to them.
 When Ireland rids itself of unem- ployment, when life on the farm be- comes more attractive and when life in the city becomes easier then will the Irregular movement die out. Po- litical agitators have fertile fields among men who are hungering be- cause they have no work, and they also have fertile fields among youths who love adventure and who have tired of the life of peasants.
 This problem of the Irregulars is more economic than political
The Cordova daily times., 1923-03-09
By DAVID M. CHURCH

DUBLIN, March 9.-Irelands prob lem of rebellion is an much prob lem in economics as it is a problem in military tactics.
 lem of unemployment and until Irish agriculture and industry become the paramount interests of the nation there are bound to be Irregulars and bandits.
 The Irregulars of Ireland are for the most part youths-boys who have left the farm. They do not want to return to the farm. They have tasted city life, they have tasted adventure and they have felt the joys of having money in their poe kets. They have no inclination now to return to their fathers farms to work for such pittances as their par ents may choose to give them. If they seek the cities and industrial employment they find difficulty in getting work and they are forced into idlesness, which soon leads them back to their life of wild adventure as Irregulars.
 Easiest Way to Make Living
 Irregulars are irregulars, not so much because of deep-seated politi- cal convictions, but because this opens the easiest and most agreeable manner of Livelihood
The Cordova daily times., 1923-03-09

Article Two (Today)-The Irish Irregular" problem has it's source as much in economic as in political causes. Adventurous farm boys, who have gloried in the wild liberty of militant Republican ranks, are loath to return to agricultural pursuits, al- though recent executions changed the minds of some. Unemployment is fostering the rebellion probably more than any deep-seated patriotic convictions.

THE PLAY.

bNh ~
West should nave allowed his part
ner to play clubs and east would have
easily secured a small slam, but west
had great confidence in his own ability
and the results apparently justified
him. North, of course, threw the
game away at trick ten by failing to
put up the queen of diamonds.
This play would have resulted in a
loss for east and west on the deal.
North. of course. thought he was go
ing to take all the remaining tricks
for the reason that there was no dia-
mond in dummy and therefore his nine
should hold the trick. The reasoning
of north from the beginning Of the deal
should have been as follows:
At trick two when the declarer failed
to follow suit in clubs. north should
have marked three measley clubs re-
manning in his partners hand.
AS south never had an opportunity
to discard at any stage of the game
those clubs were still in the south
hand when north played the nine OF
diamonds at trick ten.
Thirteen spades had been played up
to that time, and there were no hearts
remaining except those which north
held In his own hand: therefore the
one other card in the south hand must
be a diamond, probably the Jack or
ten as the declarer would have been
unlikely to lead the little diamond had
he held both honors.

WATROUS NAMED
BASEBALL COACH
AT MINNESOTA

Major L II. Watrous, stationed at
the University Of Minnesota as as In
structor in military subjects, has also
been appointed baseball coach for tho
present season, President L ID. Cof-
man has announced.
Baseball was brought back as a
major sport at Minnesota last spring
and this season an effort will DO made
to increase the student interest that
followed resumption a year ago.
Immediately following Major Wat
rous appointment as coach, George
Myrum Of Worthington was elected

ter men from asst years squad who
voted were the captain elect, Harold
Severinson, Lester Fried. Bob Sam
son. and Selmer Anderson.

NEW GOLF CLUB
SOLVES PROBLEM
OF CADDIE HIRE

Henry ]. Brandon. president of the
New Coldstream Golf club, claims a
perfect solution of the caddie problem.
Several ears ago Mr.. Brandon was a
member of a golf club in Haiti. where
the caddies were natives and hired for
20 cents a day. 1t was a good ching
for the caddies, inasmuch as they
contracted with other natives 20 do the
work for 5 cents a day, leaving them
a financial profit OF is cents.
Mr.. Brandon's idea for the Cold
stream club is that the club charter a
boat, sail for Haiti. and come back
with a boatload of 20 sen caddles. To
date the only difficulty would seem to
be catching the caddies and putting
shoes on their feet.
According to present market quota
tons a 20 cent caddie would sell on
the hoof for $50 a year. "Own your
own caddie" may be tho slogan OF the
new club.

LOUISVILLE BOY RIDES
WINNERS AT HAVANA

Another Louisville boy promises to
make his mark as a pigskin artist,
He is Herman Kaiser. the elongated
son of Mr.. and Mrs, Conrad II. Kaiser
of Southern Heights. Although only
16 a of age, the lad has been riding
with unusual success during the win
ter acc meeting at Oriental Park in
Havana.
He is under contract to William X
Knebelkamp, owner and president of
the Louisville baseball club. Contract
on the boys services was purchased
last fall by William F~fnnegan. trainer
for Mr.. Knebe k'tmp, from George
Land. who handles The horses of Carl
Weidemann. web known turfman of
Covington, Ky.
In Kaiser, Finnegan thinks he has
one of the best young riders who has
come up in the last few seasons. and
expects him to win many races for tae
Knebelkamp stable and others during
the spring and summer meetings on
kentucky tracks.
Young Kaiser had his first mount
at Latonia last summer when ne was
astride Cap Rock. The first victory
of his career was scored early in the
season at Havana when he brought
Memphis down in front for the Kneb-
elkamp interests.
Memphis paid liberal odds as few OF
the patrons of the track thought the
youngster capable OF landing a win
ner. Since that time he has won a
dozen or more races and has finished
inside the money quite frequently.
