It is planned to hold the oratorla in June in connection with the centennial pro gram. DENVER'S SUCCESS GIVEN AS EXAMPLE. The underlying idea of the concert courses is to educate the general public in music and to stimulate a general In terest in musical offerings of a classical nature. This plan has proved effective in many other cities in the country, especially in Denver. Col., where con cert programs have developed on a large scale. It has now become possible In Denver to hold a series of ten concerts, in which such artists as John McCormack, Galll-Curci and Tettrazinl appear, fer a total charge of $2.59 for the entire series. School children from the seventh grade through the high schools will take part !n the course. Instruction is now being tarried on in the musical department with i view of familiarizing students with the music to be offered before they attend the concerts. A memory contest Is to be held near the close of the program which will be open to the public. Those taking part in the contest wil-l be furnished with writing material and asked to write the names of pieces and composers after hearing the musical rendition of various numbers on phonographs. It is planned to award prizes -to those recognizing the greatest aumber of musical offerings. . The program was compiled by James H. Lowry, superintendent of the park board, and Clarence E. Crippcn, presi dent, of the school board, and has been approved by both boards. Edward Birge will direct the Instruction of school children dnring the course and will also direct the high school hand studies. Only thirty high school students will take part in the general memory con test. They will be selected after a preliminary contest in the schdoU, the ten reaching the .highest percentage in each of the three high schools being selected. VALENTINE BABY FUTURE CLOUDED Woman, Said to Have Con spired for Infant, Changes Mind . Who wants a wee baby girl with blue eyes, a few auburn hairs and perfect health and who has learned to coo In gurgly fashion at the tender age of 10 days? Sereral prospective parents have vol unteered but the precious prize has not been awarded. It is the “Valentine baby” who needs a home. She Is the daughter of,a 17-year old school girl of a small Illinois town and was left on the doorstep of the W. E. Draper home 3715 East Michigan street, Thursday night. Since then It has been learned that Mrs. Draper conspired with the mother of the child to have it left at the door. Mr. Draper, who is many years his wife's senior, says they can not assume the responsibility of raising the little one. Mr. Draper has been married before and has two grown children. Mrs. Draper Is in her early twenties. “Baby Valentine” has demonstrated her ability to subsist on artificial baby food and Is in a flourishing condition, nurses at the Indianapolis Orphans' Horae say. Officers of the juvenile court are puzzled over certain legal aspects of the baby’s presence at the Orphans’ Horae. Since the mother is not a resident of Indiana it is not legal to care for it with Marion coun ty funds. On the other hand to send it and the mother back to their Illinois home would prove embarraslng to the mother and, perhaps, in aftet years to the child. Common .charity demands that some pro vision be made to care for the little one here. The mother Is living at the home of friends, Mr. and Mrs. W. D. Jinnett, 2032 East New York street. She was found there by Miss Elizabeth Whiteman and Miss Irene Byers, policewomen, who traced her through a birth certificate filed at the City hall Valentine day. The mother Ts a high school girl and her appearance and conversation give evidence of refinement. She has always lived with her mother, who is separated from her father. Mrs. Jinnett told the policewomen that the child was advertised for adoption last Tuesday. Nine letters came in answer to the advertisement. Mrs. Draper wrote that she had been longing for a baby and had wished one might be left at her door step. Later she called at the Jinnett home and it was arranged that the baby would be left at her home on Thursday night. Mrs. Draper hoped her husband would consent to an adoption under such circumstances. ‘‘Baby A’alentine” is enjoying a normal growth, It was said at the Orphans’ home and seems not displeased with the attention lavished or it by nurses. The unconventional nature of her vaga bondaf ; will never reflect injury on the little lady If she only finds the sort of home a comely and healthy Infant is en titled to. Stringer’s Slayers Begin Prison Term Abe Spaulding and Earl McCoy, col ored, who were sentenced to life impris onment for the murder of Detective Lee Stringer on Oct. 30, 1919, yesterday began the serving of their sentence at Michigan City prison.

TRADED HIS GUN TO OBTAIN GAS Borrows Generals Car to Get Supply for Tank , WASHINGTON, Feb. 24.—1 the ordnance department's accounts show (among other things) a deficit of one army automatic pistol (which hey do), it is because Lieut. Hillesley was bad ly In need of gas to drive the Ameri can “heavy" tank into the already dented Hindenburg line in the summer of 1918. Lieut. Hillesley begged the chauffeur of an Australian commanding general's beautifully upholstered limousine for the loan of his car for thirty minutes—the general being temporarily absent. The chauffeur consented, after pocketing the American's big “45” automatic and Hillesley returned with the car full of brimming gasoline and oil cans. The general was mad, but Hillesley made his nick in the Hindenburg line, and no court-martial followed. WAGNER AGAIN DELIGHTS ROME Joy Is Tempered by Rude Con duct of New Rich. ROME. Feb. 24.—After four years' exile German opera has made its first peace-bow to a Roman audience at the’ Costanzl. The work chosen for this art istic revival was Wagner's “Valkyrie, ' and the occasion was universally hailed by music lovers as the greatest operatic event of the present season, and one that insures the musical season’s suc cess. Prof. Vitale, who knows more about Wagner than any other man in Italy, led the orchestra exceedingly well. Sara Cesar made a good Brunhilde in the in terpretation of Latin mentality, but Var carl s Siegfried was as typically German as If he were sing'ng on the banks of the Rhine. Wntan was sung by Nazzareae De Angelis and pleased the house greatly. New faces filled the fashionable part of the auditorium. Many Americans who have been constant subscribers to the grand tier of boxes were missing: most of them have returned home, others are in Paris and Monte Carlo. Their places have been taken by the local war profiteers or “sharks,” ns they are called here, who noisily entered late, after keep ing the leader waiting for them more than an hour, and made up for it by leaving very early with still more noise. The remainder of the audience, who had come to enjoy Wagner, protested .i dost Holding up the performance be cause "sharks" lingered over dinner. Vitale excuses himself by saying, with a very expressive shrug: “What could I do V The whole grand tier was empty and so were the stalls Their occupants are our most profitable subscribers; I had to wait for them.” They showed gratitude by keeping up a constant come and go and a noisy one at that the whole evening. The peanut gallery held the greatest number of real music lovers, who, furious at the “sharks,” shouted: “Rough brutes, will you be quiet?" But the Roman newly rirh only attend opera because it is sup posed to be a fashionable imusement, and behave as if they were expecting a jolly evening at a vaudeville show. SOVIETS RULE NORTH RUSSIA LONDON, Feb. 24.—A1l of northern Russia is now in the hands of the soviet forces, said a Reuter dispatch from Co penhagen yesterday afternoon- The foregoing cablegram, if true, means that all the territory won by the British and American troops, and by the Russians who established local govern ments under protection of the allies, in the Archangel and Murmansk areas, is now held by the bolshevik army.

NEW YORK, Feb. 24.—The Scandl navian-Aroerlean liner Oscar 11, cele brated as the peace ship of Henry Ford and the vehicle of Dr, Cook’s trimuphal homecoming from the North Pole, while coming In through Ambrose channel from the open recently, bucking a hard northwesterly gale, grounded in the silt and sand on the east side of the fairway at low water. Capt. Axel Schmidt was ot) the bridge and a Sandy Hook pilot was directing the course. Neither felt himself responsible for the grounding, which occurred with so little shock tuat none of the 356 passengers was aware that anything out of the usual had Hap pened. A phenomenally low tide, jlue to the fierce northwester, had made the fair way within the proper channel marks unsafe for navigation. .Tust at the mo ment when the pilot was about, to turn out Into deeper water the steering gen became deranged and the nose of 'he Oscar IT snuggled into the shoal of the east side of the channel near the turn that leads Into the narrows. The pilot sent swift signals to the engineer and the propellers were re versed full apeed. But the tide was still falling and the gale bowling at a sixty-five mile rate, and all that the skip per and pilot, could do was to send a wireless call for tugs and wait for the i rising of the tide. The tugs came and the ship, without a scratch, was released and proceeded to Quarantine under her own steam. Capt. Schmidt said he regretted that hts first visit to New Y'ork as a com mander of the Scandinavian-American line had led him to berth nearly four hours off the Hook, but that he had no means of managing the weather here about.
