BELLE OF BARCELONA
MAKES A HIT

Colored folk who like tuneful and
unsuggestive music, people who ap-
preciate seeing and hearing our own
give their interpretations Of cantatas,
plays and operettas, who were not
present at this presentation, missed a
rare and unusual treat.
Members of the Phyllis Wheatley
glee club deserve much credit for their
untiring efforts in presenting for the
public this operetta.
Especial praise and commentator
should be extended to Mrs. Blanche
Mason for directress, for her excellent
work in welding together such per-
feet group of delightful, pleasant
players and singers. Yes, the folks
who missed the Belle of Barcelona,
missed something.

Special Dispatch 10 The star.
NEW YORK. May 4.-Greater
strength and q more uniform price
movement than has been exhibited re-
Gently featured the days bond mar
ket. Both domestic and foreign is.
sues were higher and some of them
at the best of the year.
The decline ia the renewal rate for
money to 4 per cent. with the promise
of easy conditions during the rest OF
the month, was the main reason for
the days Improvement, However.
some of the speculative bonds took
their cue from the recovery in the
stock market and the disposition TO
ignore factors that had lately been
regarded as unfavorable.
AS a group the foreign list was
most conspicuous for strength. In
this the French government, munich
pal and railroad bonds stood out
prominently.
French Issues Rise,
The non-callable French 7i2s sold at,
new high record prices. while the
French cities and rails We're 34s

these bonds have been sluggish

strengthened her internal position.
Belgians symparhized with French
descriptions.
japanese government and public
utility bonds today were nearly back
TO the prices at which they sold prior
to the banking crisis in Japan. Poland
IS touched par, a new high record.
One explanation of the firmness in
foreign bonds was that, as a result
of Thomas w. Lamonts warning.
there might be fewer new foreign
issues to compete with those out
standing. This would obviously bene-
