"And, perhaps, it would be of interest to know how I formed this orchestra of Washington players," he added. "It was possible because a group of professional business men, a rem nant of the old Washington Sym phony Orchestra, have kept up their work through these years, when no professional orchestra existed in Washington, by semi-monthly meet ings at the homes of some of their number under the direction of Dr. Taylor and Mr. Rakemann."

Other Cltfes To Follow. "The success of PagliaccI' standard grand opera by had. It offers opportunity in numbers for magnificence in ensemble and pageantry that cannot bo considered by the commercial producer. "Take, for example, Aida' with :u wonderful choral marches. What can compare with the scene of the meet ing of the forty tribes at the gates of Thebes? Each tribe is accompanied by Its band, which In the finest com; merclal productions, owing to expenso and lack of space, is confined to a couple of trumpets and a trombone or two. "In a stadium production in summer time, the combined choruses of the city of Washington, or any other city perhaps a thousand voices could be utilized, together with a large orches tra. Each tribe could b accompanied by a full brass choir, and the results obtained, in the final ensemble, would present a glorified magnificence in pageantry and music that would doubtless surpass the dreams of the immortal Verdi. "These are possibilities In com munity opera. Of course all localities could not furnish local Carusos. But the choruses, instrumentalists, and main body of participants could be locally trained, and the soloists im ported, as is often done in music fes tivals." Has Had Long Experience. Mr. Bond has experience for thus "seeing the mammoth production," for he has directed the well-known Shriners' Band of New York city for five years. It has a membership of 110 men. At Madison Square Garden and also at the Atlanta and the Buf falo expositions he has led with massed bands up to 1,000 men. Also he brought the New Orleans French Grand Opera Company to Washing ton in 1010. and he has composed four light operas, one of which toured for five seasons. The orchestra of the Community Opera of Washington is one of the bulwarks of our future opera growth. If art impulse is permanent, then the constant development apparent in this purely volunteer music work of the city that the added population of war workers has so enlarged may be the foundation upon which the national opera of the United States Is to be built, with a national opera house in Washington.

The priest came and administered the last rites ot me church and the doctors told him that his chance to live was slight. Half conscious, a smile played on his lips, and he mumbled to tho policeman who stood guard over him: "Gave cm a beaut oi a cnase a beaut of a chase." The boy he is not yet seventeen was snot yesteraay aimmuuii ujr Policeman Conrad Walters in the basement of an apartment house on West Eightieth street after a hunt that led through houses, upstairs, over roof tops and through Eightieth street. Jimmy's Haul Interrupted. Jimmy had packed away $1,500 worth of silverware in a suitcase and a tin BOX wnen no was ourynocu uj Miss Laura Gamble In her apartment on the first floor of 175 West Seventy ninth street late yesterday afternoon. She noticed that the door of her apartment had been jimmied and cautiously entering found the burglar preparing to leave. At sight of her he jumped through the window to the rear court, hopped over a fence and into the home of Mrs. Selma Chalbrick on the corner of Amsterdam avenue. He threatened her to keep her quiet and ran up the stairs to the roof of the apartment bouse. Meanwhile Detectives Donahune and Devanay, of the West Sixty eighth street station, who answered Miss Gamble's alarm, took up the stairs. Near the top flight, the burg lar turned and threw the tin box at his pursuers. Then he ran along the roof, darting behind chimneys, and when the police reached the top he had disappeared. Then waited, and in a few minutes heard the slam of a roof-door. Rushing for it, they found the youth running down the stairs into the corner apartment house. He reached the street before them and ran easterly for a hun dred yards before they caught up to him. Detectives Halted In Chase. In front of 165 West Eightieth street he wheeled again and tripped tho detectives with the valise of loot he carried. Th crowd that joined In the pursuit cut off his escape up Eightieth street and so he darted into an apartment house and ran through to the rear, out, and over the fence into the basement of the janitress, Mrs. George Morris, in the apart ment house next door. The police thought he had made for the room and took up the hunt in that direc tion. John A. Leitch, a postofflce Inspec tor, with Policeman Walters, joirfed the chase later and tried the Morris aoartment. The janitress was out. A noise under the bed attracted Walters and he called upon the burglar to come out. There was no answer. He called again. This time the whole bed was lifted off the floor and flung upon the policeman and Leitch,") and Buckley ran Into the kitcnen. He flung a soda bottle at Walters and jumped to the window. The policeman leveled his revolver and fired. Buckley screamed and fell limp over the windowsill. NEW YORK, May 15. Col. William Hayward, commander of the old Fif teenth Infantry, N. G. N. Y., was as signed by Judge Rosalsky, in general sessions yesterday, to defend John Tracy, twenty-five, charged with the murder of James Savage on April 14. "Are you satisfied with your coun sel?" Judge Rosalsky asked. "Yes," said Tracy. "Do you know who Colonel Hay- ward is?" was the next question. "No," replied the prisoner. "Then you ought to get the electric chair," smiled Judge Rosalsky. "Colonel Hayward Is not only a mighty good lawyer, but one of the greatest horocs of thc world war." Savage was killed when Tracy, fool ing with an old pistol, told friends standing near to watch him "scare this guy." The "unloaded weapon" ran true to form. No date for the trial has been set. NOT CONSIDERED "DEAD." American soldiers reported as missing In action hereafter will not be presumed to be dead by the War Department after the expiration of six montns. a. caDiegram rrom General Pershing received by the de partment yesterday stated that sys tematic search and checking of rec ords was dally reducing the list of missing and that therefore- It was- nt deemed advisable to presume deatk too soon.

Mrs. Vic toria McKenzie, a widow, seventy ftve years old. the complaining wit ness against Richard H. Lane, lawyer, who is being tried in the criminal branch of the Supreme Court on a charge of obtaining SS.oOO from hor on false representations, was ac cused yesterday by the defendant's wife, Mrs. Ann Lane, of having of fered her $20,000 to divorce Lane. She said Mrs. McKenzie"s display of af fection for Lane during the summer of 1016 had caused her to live apart from her husband until February of the following year.
