At present the line is electrified be- tween Wilmington, Del, and Trenton, N.

RATHER unl lnd enter- nuni pro- A vided nl(ht M the en- tic Music Committee of hall of this well known club, whme walls were filled with paintings by Australian artists, which one eyed greedily when the lights were flashed on to see just what Australian paint- ing is, or has been, or might be, there was presented “a 'travelogue ;:_21“ the ;dxuw Committee through ce an of Dr. cmrléflumey For the doubtful let lt be stated at once that Dr. as the father of Fanny Burney o( "Evelinl" fame, and that therefore 'his foot- steps in and about these two coun- tries must necessarily have been in- teresting. The surprise was, in fact, that in those days, when traveling any distance meant gv!n' most of a lifetime to it, Dr. Burney should have been able to get so far. No city of culture seems to have es- caped him, and, as lllu Sady Sty- ron from a lamp-lit rostrum ex- plained, he was & man whose inter- est in music was something way out of the ordinary run of such things. Only when the doctor came upon Puccini and Gluck did one begin to ‘wonder if perhaps he hadn’t traveled & bit overtime. ‘When this spectator rul:hed the crowded hall Dr. Burney had skip- ped from France to Italy and was basking in the land of sunshine and the music of such maestros as Nardini, Samartini and Tartini— with a dash of Mozart, whom he had evidently met in Rome, thrown in. Miss Styron and the lantern slides paused in their travels long flu-ee of the most lightful of the above mentioned In these, the Gored a0 fteckively tnih My, Kaspar %0 vely was forced to vhy it mlnx‘m he did ue.vczn more eff phrasing and which is so necessary in a work in which continual repetitions méans many p.gn turned back, and_fol- 1ot Katherine Lee Jones sang some plualng songs.

PLANTS CAN MISS SUN NEW YORK, March 13 (#).—Sun baths are fine for men and monkeys, but || plants can get along without them. ‘The Museum of Science and Industry says the ultra-violet rays in sunshine, begeficial to mankind and animals, have no determinable effect on the plant world.
