brilliant affairs of the Winter sea-

successful series of 60 concerts

T ATTN AMERICAN music is be-
coming an intrinsic feature in
Washington entertainments. In
fact, the music of the Southern
American countries Is receiving
universally more general and &C
curate recognition than has been
the case heretofore. Frequently,
in the past, it is under a Euro
pean disguise that Latin Ameri-
can music or artists have ap-
peared. Gradually, however, the
credit is going where credit is due.
To take two quite popular and
fairly recent instances: The song.
Three O'Clock in the Morning"
widely heralded few seasons ago
as one of the leading song hits
written by Broadway song
writer, is traceable in its entirety
to the melodiouS chimes Of the
bells of BuenoS Aires, Argentina;
also the even more recently popu-
lar song, GAY, Ay, Ay," often men
toned as Creole folk song, is, III
reality, folk song of Chile. There
still are many other similar cases.
Among the artists, the most
sensational dancer of the present
day-La Argentina-who has been
acclaimed internationally for her
skill and originality in interpre-
tations of the different typical
dances of Spain. is South Ameri-
can by birth. although she is her
aided as "the famous Spanish
dancer" La Argentina, as her
very name would imply, was born
in Argentina, South America.
Turing the season just closed
~ three programs of Latin
American music were given. At
the first, September 8, the feature
was the guest conductor-Prof.
Alberto Galimany of Panama,
leader of the national band OF
that country. Prof. Galimany not
only was thoroughly enjoyed as
an authentic interpreter OF the
compositions employing unusual
rhythmS, peculiar to Latin Amerl-
can works, but he also proved a
conductor of fine interpretatlve
powers. He gave the local service
band leaders invaluable aid in the
Interpretation of numbers eSpe-
cially which had the "paSillo"
rhythm. Raquel Nieto, Mexican
soprano, and Milo Menendez,
Cuban pianist, were other guest
SoloiStS.

NOME REINDEER WILL BE HERDED TO BARREN
 LANDS OF CANADA

Major D. L. McKeand, assist ant director of the Northwest Territories and the Yukon branch, Department of the Interior at Ottawa, Canada, recently made an announcement that an appro- priation of $50,000 is being made and necessary equipment provided for the purpose of moving several herds of reindeer from Nome, to the Barren Lands between the Great Bear Lake and the Hud son Bay. The movement will be commenced this year and the journey will extend over several years as experience has shown that reindeer must be removed in a leisurely manner.
 The PorSild brothers, who are Danish subjects from Greenland, will be in charge of this move ment. These men are the same as those employed by the Danish government for the past two years as shown in report dated August l, 1928, entitled Reindeer in the Northwest Territories. "
 With the thorough investigation made by these men it is expected that this venture will have bet ter chance of success than a cou- ole of other attempts to establish reindeer in the north country, and staple food supply for the Indian and Eskimo as we'll as meat for export, will be the subjects sought.
 The foregoing information was communicated to the Alaska de- Dartment of the Bureau of Ed- ucation by the American Wee { Consul at Edmonton, Canada, and the employees of the depart
 ment in Alaska through which
 these reindeer will pass have
 been asked to cooperate Wltn
 the expedition in every way pos
 sible.

That the mild weather condit- ions prevailing this winter are by no means confined to the Portland Canal district is indi- cated by reports from various sections of southern Alaska, showing unusually high tenn peratures over a large part of the Territory south of the Alaska range.
 Alaska recently reported that there had been practically no skating there this winter. Sev- eral efforts to flood the ball park for skating failed as not enough ice would form to per init skating.

London, July 30.-(AP)-London
police threw = guard today about the
home Of Coroner Doctor Jackson Of
Croydon after the coroner and his
wife received letters threatening
them for his investigation Of the
death Of Vera Sidney, one Of three
of . prominent Croydon family to
die by poison.
While some Of the police conceded
the letters might be the work Of
some insane individual they were
determined to take no chances in
what is regarded now as the most
mysterious major crime in England
in recent years.
While it was the verdict Of the
coroner's jury yesterday that Vera
Sidney had been murdered wilfully
by administration Of poison, prob
ably in her soup, inquests over the
40-year-old spinster's mother, Mrs.
Violet Amelia Sidney, who died two
months later, April S, and Edmond
Creighton Duff, son-in-law q Mrs.
Sidney, must be carried to their
finish.
The evidence has shown Mrs. Sid
ney died Of poison administered in
. medicine which she alone Of the
family took. Duff, who died year
preceding Vera Sidney, was given
potion in Z glass Of beer. He was the
only member Of the family who
drank beer.
The murder mystery suddenly has
come to the forefront Of English
public notice, the prominence Of the
family, it, wealth, and the mystery
and apparent lack Of motive for the
triple killing giving it unusual in
terest.
