MeCullom of 2006 Spruce street. Miss Parkinson, who is in her 22nd year, and is of remarkable beauty, took the music loving Par- isians completely by storm, accord- ing to advices from the French capi- tal- Paris is ringing with the praise of the American girl who thrilled a dis- tinguished assemblage with her mar- velous richness, The French musical critics are a unit in declaring that Miss Parkinson gives promise of de- veloping into an operatic star of the first magnitude. The news of her erand niece's success was conveyed to Mrs. MeCullom through the me- dium of a special cablegram sent by Mme. Marehesi, ths famous prima donna under whom Miss Parkinson studied. Mrs. McCullom is identified promi- nently with the Coxial set in this city and is a devotee to music, When questioned in her home yesterday she stated that she was gratified at Miss Parkinson's triumph. “Lam very much pleased,” she said, “at Elizabeth's success, Four Years ago U predicted that she would make her mark in the musieal world | and she has more than justified this prediction.” When Miss Parkinson returns to An bably in the spring, she} will visit Phila tin as the guest | of Mrs. MeCullom The opera in| Which Miss Parkinson made her debut was “Lakme At the end off the first act the young singer was| recall: ral timesandat the close of th wpmance the curtain was raised three times in response to the applause, It Mrs. MeCullom’s financial assistance that Miss Park- inson has been able to study in Paris. was due to A New Trial for Howard.

The John Crerar library, of Chi- | cago, has bought the most tart ante reference ‘library on the social and labor movement in the country. Four | thousand volumes dealing with trade | unionism and social problems and 4,000 pamphlets treating on the same subjects have been purchased from Prof, Richard ‘T. Ely, of the Univer- sity of Wisconsin. The purchase marks an innovation in the reference department of li- braries, as the labor movement has now reached such proportions that there is a large demand for labor Mt erature. The Crerar library is the first institution in the west to re- spond, and the first public library in the country, Prof. Ely parts reluctantly with his collection, so that it may be centrally located and of greater usefulness to students than is afforded at Madison, The price paid will not be made pub- lic, although Librarian Clement W. Andrews snid that to buy this collee- tion the directors had been com- pelled to double their annual appro- priation for the purchase of books, “For years,” said) Librarian An- drews, “Prof, Ely has been « eting the library, He is the one pr sor who in the beginning took the point of view of the Inbor men, and prob- ably no other literary man could have assembled the collection.” NO MORE “SERVANTS.” National Housewives’ Association at Chicage Decides to Dignify Them with High Sounding Title, Hereafter in Chicago there no such person asa “s ervat National Housewives’ a de d to elevat dignity of dishwashi or e|M house profession loetress of or stre even work” for attendants school of logy th is to found, will, however, 1 proper terms with whieh t housemaids, It was Mrs, Toward 8.

Although such pro- visions was plainly amenable to a point of order, not a member oneith- er side of the house raised dn objec- tion. Both sides wheeled into line, and all agreed some such action was advisable. Some of the republicans, however, raised an objection to the looseness of the language of the amendment and Hepburn-of -lowa offered as a substitute for it the lan- guage of the bill he introduced on the opening day of the session to ap- propriate $500,000 for the enforce- ment of the Jaw. This was further strengthened to make the appropria- tion immediately available and as an amendment to the substitute was agreed to without division. Theleg- islative bill passed practically as it came from the committee, except for amendment. 1 Will Test a Missouri Law.

The offer came about when a loan was asked for to carry on improve- ments, such as the erection of public buildings and the execution of im- portant public works.
