brought to his capital of New Troy and
chained as porters at the door of his
new palace, which was where the Lon
don Guildhall now stands.
The two giant figures in the Guild
hall, however, are not the originals
which used to figure in city reioiclngs
in Queen Elizabeth's time. These were
burned and replaced by the present ef-
figies some two centuries ago.
Two other famous images OF Cog and
Magog, which have adorned a clock

years, recently were bought by Henry
Ford for transportation to America,
where they are to be erected in mu-
scum, the contents of which illustrate

IN COMEDIANS ROLE
Initiates Lady of Fashion Doing
Her Hair During Private
Party in London.

LONDON (N.AN.A.).-Two great
foreign artists have recently been de-
lighting London ADMINISTRATION

diseuse.
Chahapin chose the enormous Albert
Hall as his center of operations and by
the magic of his art made every one in
his audience of 5000 think he
was singing to that one person alone
He was in rather somber mood, perhaps
because of his sore throat, and sang
some OF the most gloomy songs in his
repertoire.
1t was not till nearly the end of the
concert that he said, Now I will sing
you leetle song about lof," and the
inevitable Song Of the Flea" did not
come until he had had many encores.
Earlier In the week, however, when
M. Chaliapin was at private party in
London, he proved himself a brilliant
comedian. He would not sing on this
occasion, but in dumb show gave an

nineties. She is plump now, and glove
less, and wears picture gown of black
lace, adorned with pink roses. And in
stead OF singing naughty topicalities, she
gives program of soldier songs from
the thirteenth century to the late war
with an occasional religious song, a few
delicious glimpses of different types of
women. and perhaps, at the end, one
naughty trifie. -e
She remains a supreme artist. and is
as popular with the younger genera
ton as with their elders. She has been
supported at her performances bv

harp has won great praise.
