STARTED LIFE ANEW AT 95; DIES POOR Once Wealthy Lumberman Saw Second Fortune Swept Away Ten Years Ago. By the Associated P MANISTEE, Mich April 2. Richard G. Peters, pioneer lumber man, who set about at the age of 95 to build his third fortune, died here vesterday with his dream unfulfilled. Peters was once considered the wealthiest . lumberman in Michigans but died practically penniless. Start- ing at Manistee in 1867 with $5,000 he saved while he was foreman of mills at Au Sable and Ludington, Mich., Peters in 10 years built up a fortune of more than $5,000,000. His ventures in other flelds grew beyond his management, however, and in 1897 he was forced to assign all his holdings. Then in six years he paid off more than $2,250,000 in debts and started again. His second fortune was swept away about 10 years ago. His widow and several nephews and nieces survive, He was the oldest member of the Knights of Pythias in Michigan.

INDEPENDENTS FACE LOSS OF LEADER Norris’ Intention to Resign, if Car- ried Out, Would Remove Unofficial Head. By the Associated Press. If Senator Norris, Republican, Ne- braska, carries out his intention of re- tiring from the Senate at the close of his term in 1931, the independent group in the Senate will be compelled to find another leader, as he has been regard- ed as the successor of the late Senator La Follette of Wisconsin. Although the group does not offi- clally recognize any leader and its members are listed formally as either Republicans or Democrats, Senator Norris has been regarded as the guid- ing hand in its policies. The group’s membership is principally from West- ern States. When the Nebraska Senator steps out, the group may turn to the present Senator La Follette, son of the late fighting Wisconsian, who for years held the helm of the independents. It is pointed out, however, that since it will be several years before Senator Norris would retire, no serious con- sideration will be given immediately to filling his position. R LAYMEN TO MEET.

A Woman ALWAYS Finds What She Wants at Ney’s And Buys It on the Budget Plan 77 TRV ALTITLUTRRL RN Tz A O AN M LA, » SATURDAY, MUSIC SONG COMPOSER FEATURED. Lucy D. Marx, a Washington so- prano, was featured in the double role of singer and composer in the weekly program yesterday given be- fore the members of the Friday Morn- ing Music Club. In spite of the ex- ceedingly inclement weather, a size- able audience listened and seemed much Interested in the concert. Mrs. Marx, whose voice retains a few traces of a severe cold which she suf- fered recently, opened the program with a group of three songs for chil- dren dedicated to her own three small girls. The true spirit of childhood ideas and attitudes on life and play 18 admirably presented in hoth the verses and melody of the songs. “The Little Sportsman” and “Mothers” es- pecially have this quality of seeming from the child’s own point of view. They should make excellent numbers on a children’s program. The other group of Mrs, M songs included numbers of a more pretentious nature. There was a lovely lullaby, a song “after the Rubaiyat,” called “Delight s Garden,” and an original song ad- mirably suited to her own voice, “The Wind.” Mrs. Paul Bleyden was, as usual, a fine accompanist. The other singers on the program was a young mezzo-contralto, Mary Apple, who has a rich quality of voice, and great possibilities for fur- ther development. Her first member was “Serenade” by Liebe, with violin sbligato by Mrs. Dickey, wellknown tocal violinist. It was in Lalo's beauti- ful “L’Esclave” and the two Indian nembers, especially Smbers” by sohr, that Miss Apple seemed to find more her type of song with melody 50 handled that it particularly suited the timbre of her voice. “Her Blan- ket,” a Navajo Indian song with set- ing by Lieurance, was very interest- ing in the melancholy of its theme ind the native music motive. One caught traces of the “Water of Minne- tonka,” by the same composer, all through the accompaniment, however, wnd it was peculiar in its complete lack of legato as sung. The Indians, hemselves, do sing in a choppy fash- ion, to a considerable extent and it is probable that this was suggested in the spaced phrasing of each phrase in this song, Christopher Tenley was a very good accompanist. The plano numbers were contributed oy the young artist, Caroline Bender. 3he, too, featured works that would be loved by children in the ‘Children’s Corner Suite,” by Debussy, in which he tinkling effects of the “Serenade or a Doll” and the gay, insolence of the “Golliwog's (Za.ke“'u‘k" were un- 1sually pleasing. The Schumann “Papillons,” quite as lyric and lengthy as Schumang usually is, was given fine interpretation. The brilliant Dohnanyi “Capriceio in B Minor” was 1 little heard and excellently played work. Miss Bender’s technique is clean-cut, her tonal quality has indi- viduality, and her interpretation is colorful and intelligent H. D. O, A VIOLIN RECITAL. Herman C. Rakemann, well known local teacher of stringed instruments, vresented his pupils in a violin recital last night at the Gunston Hall School. A pleasing and varied program was offered, including two stringed quartet numbers and a violin and viola duet. One of the most promising of Mr. Rakemann’s pupils appeared to be voung Herbert Diamond, whose num- bers were the ‘“Serenade,” by bert-Elman, “In the Cane Brake,” Gardner, and “Etude Melodique,” Nolk. His playing won the hearts his audience. Virginia Crocker gave 2 finished performance of the entire group in her rendition of the “Dirge of the North,” by Balogh-Kreisler, and “The Bee,” by Schubert. Every note was firm and clear, and she seemed sure of herself throughout her per- formance. Another young girl who deserves special credit is Bella Dodek, who presented Chopin’s ' “Nocturne, Opus 9, No. 2.” Her rufis in this selection were unusually good. She was accompanied on the piano by Fanny Dodek. Other pupils on the program were Betty Basim, in “Para- dise,” by Kraukauer-Krelsler; “Ga- votte in F Major,” by Beethoven- Kramer; Catherine Birch, in “Prel. ude,” by Spaulding, and “La Foli by Corelli-Spaulding; Julia Wasser, in 'Valse Caprice,” by Sauret, and Fritz Hauer, in “Sicilienne et by Francoer-Kreisler, and * Refrain,” by Kreisler. . A string quartet, composed of Messrs. Silber, Bechtold, Nickolaus and Manoly, played “Andante,” by Dit- tersdorf-Pochom, and Mozart's “‘String Quartet in A Major, No. 29,” consist. ing of three movements, andante, menuette and rondo. A duet for vio- lin and viola, by Kalliwoda, was of- fered by Rose Maxwell Dickey and Mr. Rakemann. Karl Holer, local Esacher and Cl;m‘x)nder of the Young omposers’ Club, was acco; for the artists. e m HIGHEST QUALITY ROOF PAINT $1.75 Per Gal. FRIES, BEALL & SHARP' 734 10th N.!

Ratcliffe Holmes, English explorer, last evening, at the Washington Audi- torium, took the National Geographic Society members on a motion picture expedition into Tanganyika territory. The speaker started at the East African coast towns, where nimbl natives ‘“chased the coy cocoanut tc its lair,” where wells used lifts of : type thousands of years old (except for the substitution of an oil can for a goat-skin waterbag), and where the Tanga traction system was operated by two-man power. Penetrating a little way back o the coast, he came upon a native chie ith 100,000 subjects and 200 wives 0se new ambition is for a populd: type of American car. He shower how a native carriers’ train is organ ized and paid tribute to these native bearers, who, he said, had aided e: ploration more than 'they have ha credit for. He pointed out that inte rior travel must be pedestrian, be cause during the war more than 60,00 horses were introduced into this Brit ish domain, but all of them died fron the tsetse fly. Praise for Vulture. Votable pictures of wild animal lifc vere shown, none of them ‘posed,’ the speaker noted, and none was taker with a long distance lens. He did not use “blinds,” but sought conceal ment in the natural environment of the animals’ congregating places. From the fact that many types of animals did not recognize the camera lens when comparatively close to it he sald that animal eyesight appar- ently is not as keen as the human eye, at least for detailed observation. It is the vulture, acting as e sani tary engineer, that makes * human visitation to this region possible, he sald, and to this bird he awarded th: palm for keen eyesight. When on: Vvulture is discerned, he said, it is like 1y thas many more are out of the ob server's sight. These birds, contrar: to popular beliet, do not depend upw their sense of smell, but on their keex vision. Giraffes Hard to Film. The most amazing picture shown was that of an array of flamingoes stretching along a lake for nearly a mile, to a depth of half that distance, and when these birds took wing they figfifidha rexlll-mdrkglble few feet of film e called the * - “D;I ol icture of a mil M. Holmes said the giraffe, t) four-legged animal perlscspe." is 2:: of the hardest of the animals to come upon for photographic purposes. The rhino he described as “two or three tons of bad temper.” He even caught a beetle, rolling home a food ball 20 times as big as itself. He photographed leopards, gnus and monkeys of a type recently brought to the Washington Zoo by Dr. Mann. The journey’s next stage was in the - | Great Rift Valley and into the great crater country. Cobras were the ex- pedition’s sleeping companions at times, but that snake is not to be so much feared as the mumba. Herds of eelphants were shown and also an unusual picture of a baboon tribe which carries its young, jockey- like on the back. Kilmanjaro, Mr. Holmes said, is one of the most beautiful mountains in the world, and one of the most serv- iceable to its territory, for the melt- ing snows from its great cap make possible the irrigation of fertile areas in its vicinity. .
