New York City.—Night club*

York where the conservative may
be certain of having real music

Thi* is at the Waldorf-Astoria
Hotel where Joseph Knecht has
played Victor Herbert, Chopin

teen years, unheeding passing
music fads.
Ragtime, blues and jazz have

gone unsung by Mr. Knecht. He
doesn't see why anybody makes a
fuss about them. They all die,
don't they, as soon as their little
day is done? Meantime, here is
Schubert always waiting, and
Tchaikowsky.
The only concession Mr. Knecht
will make to the mode of the mo
ment is the inclusion in his pro
gram ofi- piece* like "The
night Waltz," which he «ays ha*
the magnificent rhythm* and real
melody of the standard favorite*.
Music will always be, but we
haven't had much of it written
lately around New York, Mr.
Knecht comments mildly.

Okeechobee, PI«.,—Seminole In
dians, who once ruled the vast
F lorida Everglades have dwindled
so rapidly that today their total
number represents but a frail rem
nant of one of the most powerful
. tribes that ever entered Florida.
According to the U. S. Govern
ment, but 700 are alive, many of
, v horn are being hired as laborers.
About 1780, they were one of the
wealthiest tribes of Indians on the
North American continent, having
huge herds ol cattle, horses and
large bodies of negroes who work
ed for them. They are today, the
only free roving Indians in the
United States and are given full
liberty to travel to any place they
choose within the borders of the
state. Many of them live as they
lived 200 years ago, packing all
their belongings in primitive dug
outs and traveling in nomad fash
ion through the almost impene
trable fastnesses of the 'Glades.
(They are accounted to be the fin
est specimens of Indiana in the
United States, clean in body, pure
'in morals and brave as lions. The
old chiefs, to test their endurance,
have been known to take a red
hot eoal from the camp fire, place
It on the wrist and without emo
tion let It bam through the skin
until the heat was exhausted.
Although civilization is fast en
croaching upon their virgin terri
torry, they still cling to a tribal
code established more than two
hundred years ago and are divided

Over 4,000,000 acres in the Flor

for agricultural purposes. Huge
canals, some 26 miles long and
large enough to float a river

Okeechobee in the heart of the
state to the Atlantic Ocean to
drain the surplus waters from the

When'the three Naval Seaplanes

early this month they will each be
well equipped with both transmitting
and receiving apparatus. Considerable
confidence is being placed on this radio
equipment, as the (liers will depend
upon it for guidance throughout the
2,400 mile flight over the Pacific. This
radio will also furnish the communica
tion between the planes, as well as to
shore and ship stations. In case of
disaster it may be the means of s,av-|
