Famous Composers
BY E DOUGLASS
Domenico CimdroSd.

NNE OF the most prominent COM
posers OF tbs Italian dramatic
school was Domenico Gina,
rosa. He was born at Aversa. near
Naples. on December II. l74s. the
son OF poor parents. Orphaned early
IN life. he was sent 70 the charity
school OF the Minorities. his first
music teacher being the organist OF
the monastery. His talent was so
great that he obtained q free schol-
arship IN the CONSERVATORY di S.
Mario di Loreto. where he was
taught singing. counterpart and
composition. Here Cimarosa re-
NAMED for eleven years.
At the age OF twenty-three. Gina
rosa wrote his first opera corniQue
called lie Stravaganza del Conte"
which was first performed In Naples
in l772.
This composition was followed in
the same year by another comic
opera. Both OF these proving sue
cessful. the young composer was in
vited to Rome in 1874 to write an
opera. Here he produced a third
comic opera "L'Italiana de Londra-"
During the next thirteen years.
Cimarosa's life was rather unevent-
full. He wrote a number OF operas
and travelled extensively through
Italy. From 1884 10 1887 he lived
in Florence, where he wrote exclu-
sively for the theatre OF that city.
On the return OF Paisello from St.
Petersburg. Cimarosa was invited by
Catherine II to take his place. His
journey to Russia was something In
the way OF a triumphal tour. During
his stay in Russia. he produced three
operas and wrote an enormous mum.
Der OF pieces d'occasion. Every e.
fort was made to induce Cimarosa TO
remain In Russia. but not being able
70 stand the rigors Of the climate. he
left Russia In the latter part OF 1872

parliamentary usage and he limited that
he had addressed Mr. Baldwin as a
member of the House of Commons
rather than as prime minister
Something of what might happen at
such a conference was shown by Wis
count Cecil of Chelwood. He said in
public address that he favored "math-
ematical equality between the navies of
Britain and the United States, both in
tons and guns"
French, Italian and Japanese officials
undoubtedly have followed this Anglo
American idea exchange with close at
tention, but evidently have been too pre-
occupied with other problems to give it
public notice.
Italy Faces Problem.
Italy's official eyes are turned across
the Adriatic, where the western prov
inceS Of JugoslaVia have pursued their
opposition to the Belgrade government,
breaking into open disorder or ignoring
indifferently the December l celebra-
tons of the union of the Serbs, CroatS
and SloveneS into one kingdom.
Another focus point for italian vision
is Albania. where King Zogu has found
it eXpedient to postpone his coronation
for the third time and to announce that
he had broken his troth to the daughter
of an Albanian chieftain in order to
make room on his throne for a consort
of royal blood. The action probably
has added another blood feud' to the
more than fourScore such vendettas
that have been proclaimed against
zogu.
Japanese Emperor EnthrOned.
Japan's Emperor finished his ritual
iStic enforcement ceremonies. in
which the regilious element predomi-
mated and the claims of the Japanese
royal family to divine origin were re-
asserted.
China's international situation is
none too comfortable. Japan and Great
Britain evidently have found much of
common interest there, and France has
joined with them in warning that the
recent changes in the salt tax admins
tration have not been accepted. Rumors
of the revival of the old British-Japa-
ness alliance have been denied, but
some British comment has been made
that by signing an unannounced sepa-
rate treaty with Marking, the United
States failed to live up to the Wash
ington agreement, whereby nine powers
pledged themselves not to make in
dividual action in China.

OUTSTANDING WORLD EVENTS
OF PAST WEEK BRIEFLY TOLD

BY the Associated Press.
Naval disarmament, which supposed
ly has been Slumbering subject, awoke
from what was only a doZe last week
and probably will get continuing at
tention from Anglo American interna-
tional thought in the near future. Back
of this was an idea which has been
gaining ground in the big English
speaking nations. a feeling that face
to-face consultation will accomplish re-
suits more surely and with far greater
speed than traditional negotiations
through diplomatic channels.
Herbert Hoover voiced this in his
initial addresses to Central American
peoples when he emphasized that con-
tact was one of the principal objects
of his journey. "above all by the men
elected to responsibility in their govern
ments."
Baldwin Outlines Views.
A few days before that Stanley Bald
win, prime minister of Great Britain,
had said that much of the misunder-
standing regarding the British and
American viewpoints on navies might
have been avoided had the statesmen
of the two countries been able to talk
things over instead of relying upon
communication across 5000 miles of
ocean.
Then Lord Lee of Fareham, whose ac-
tivities have had wide range. took up
the strain. He was discussing the
death of the Franco British naval &C
cord when he remarked that SO far
as the United States and Great Britain
were concerned, an understanding could
be reached best if the whole problem
were submitted to the joint judgment of
men like Hoover and Baldwin or Hughes
and Balfour.
On the heels of this came cable
message to Baldwin from Fred A.
Britten. chairman of the naval affairs
committee of the House of Representa-
tiveS. He suggested that select COM
mittee from the British Parliament meet
the Britten committee in Canada next
March.
British Comment on Proposal.
The idea gained sympathy in many
British quarters. Some of these pointed
out that Mr.. Britten had shattered pre-
cedents in international communica-
lions, but at the same time declared
the proposal was too valuable to be
thwarted by technicality.
Mr.. Britten answered by saying that
his method was in accord with inter-
