By the time the famous black vel
vet curtains had fallen on the first
act of the most brilliast musical suc
cess of the season 1 was as miser
able, bored and disgusted as a woman j
could be.
Now and then, for fear people j
would notice how out of it I was \
1 made some comment to Phoebe or
Mr. West. A brief answer and then !
they returned to their interest :n
the stage and each other. No one
spoke to me unaddressed. 1 felt
as if every one in the theater must;
be noticing, and, noticing, must be ,
saving to every one else
"What a dull, stupid, unattractive i
woman that one in gray chiffon
... „ . „ >w. THr. rtannla I*. h.r i
seems to be. The people in her |
party don't notice her if they can 1
help it. They must be bored to ■
death by her."
My mouth seemed to twist of its i
own accord into the queerest grim
aces. and I kept struggling to quirk •
| it up at the corners so it wouldn't ,
look as if I were unhappy to the I
\erge of tears.
When the curtain fell it was no
better. I buried myself in my pro- j
gram and turned the leaves over;
and over again with absorbed at
tention. but what I was reading I !
couldn't have told.
Suddenly Evvy's voice which had |
been keyed low. rippling along with
throaty little gurgles meant only j
for Jim's ear. rang out in husky
challenge:
"Bored. Donna Anna." It's a shame |
that your cavalier is so late. It isn't ■
like Tommy, either, where a woman
—like you is concerned."
Every one chuckled at the elab- I
orate point Evvy made of hesitating !
when she had seemed almost to sug- i
gest that Tom was gallant to all j
women, and then swung her barb j
into a sort of compliment to me. !
My face burned, but before I could!
reply Evvy went on:
"Oh, here's Sir Thomas now. What !
will you give me, cousin mine, for j
the privilege of hiding away cozily
here in the back of the box with
your—Donna Anna?"
"Hello, every one—every one
hello!" spoke up Tom Mason gen- j

. ially. "My, we are cozy! But 1 say,
Jim, don't you want the choice place |
up in front for the last act? They j
say there's a wonderful dance."
"Jimmie wouldn't reprive his i
wife—or a guest—of a chance to !
see that dance to the best possible j
advantage for the world," gushed j
j Evvy in her strangely husky voice. |
Again everyone laughed. There,
was such a knowing note in
! Phoebe's mirth that 1 just ached, j
: remembering the dear little girl j
i Neal had loved, only a few weeks
; before.
i "Well, I'll swap everything you j
or the stage have to offer for one |
I friendly smile from our hostess," j
1 said Tom easily as he took his place |
\ in the nitherto empty chair just back !
lof me. "Glad to see me, little lilac j
i lady?" j
I Jim's name for me—the name I j
'scarcely ever heard now! Yet it:
j seemed to me that 1 was glad to
! hear it now from any lips, although
j I am ■ sure that I would have
j thought it sacrilege for Tom Mason
1 to use it so Snort a while as an hour
j before.
! "Glad to see me, little lilac lady?" I
!he asked again bending closer, j
| Then suddenly I noticed a woman |
j in the audience looking at me with
i interest—as if I were a person to be
iieckoned with. A minute or two
I befor e in sending her eyes across
j her box they had ignored me —the I
I seeming "fifth wheel on the wagon." |
' Masculine admiration has a way of j
I winning for a woman the recogni- ]
j tion belonging to a "somebody." To
b e undesired is to seem undesirable ]
i—a nobody.
I had never dreamed I would do j
it, but now I flashed a glance that j
was almost grateful around at Tom >
' Mason.
j "I am glad to see you." 1 sajd in
! amazement that this could be true j
j The rest of the evening was like :
ia new cook's first griddle cake—j
raw and doughy on one side, almost j
j burned on the other.
Tom Mason's warm devotion
i saved me from being what my sen-1
! sitiveness—or jealousy—feared, an j
object of pity to all observers. But ;
! nothing could make it really "pal- I
: atable" to me. When, at our after- j
I theater supper. Evvy languished!

■ through the waltzes with Jim —
| whose ankle generally protected
him from being ranked as a danc
ing man. I tried to comfort myself
with twinkly little fox-trots with
Tom. It didn't work. But I no
longer felt an actual aversion for
the men—even in the blue robe was
■ forgotten until he recalled it at part
ing.
■ "We've had a happy evening, !
haven't we. Donna Anna? Much I
I better than - last night. You're
j looking even sweeter than you did
I then."
I "Well, for an interior decorator,
j you're easily fooled!" I laughed,
j "I'm wearing the selfsame dress I
j wore last night."
"I know." he said seriously, "but
I it's suitable tonight. Last night
you should have worn the blue robe.
| Aren t you ever going to—make me
! happy by letting me see how lovely
| you are in that?"
We were at Evvy's door, Phoebe
was in another taxi with Dick West,
i Jim gone to see Evvy safely inside
I her house. For the moment Tom
, and I were utterly alone. He seized
; my hand ant', carried it to his lips,
I and as they burned against my palm
1 the old distrust revived.
"I'll never wear that blue robe
| Won't you take it back. So won't
, Won't you take it back?" 1 begged.
I'T'll never take it back. So won't
you wear it?" he asked.
There was a serious note under all j

for myself sitting there ignored by
my Jim, while he bade good night
to Evvy.
Suddenly, X was also a little sorry
I for Tom Mason.

GERMAN REBELS
SLAY SOLDIERS
[C'ontiniiPtl front First Page.]
| berg, suburb to the east of the city.
The Spartacans are reported to have
[ large depots of weapons and am
munition in Liehtenberg. Govern
ment troops sent to Liichtenberg
Sunday to protect the post office and
police stations were annihilated by
the Spartacans.
Spartacans Murder
All the soldiers and i>olice offi
cials who were not killed during the
lighting for the post office and po
lice station or who did not escape
from the buildings were murdered
by the Spartacans. Many were tor
tured and killed in the streets. At
least one woman was among the
victims of the Spartacans. The po
lice archives in Lichtenberg were
burned and 80,000 marks were
stolen from the post office. It is be
lieved more than 130 persons have
been killed in the present uprising.
Summary Executions Regan
Fresh reports of Spartacan atroci
ties have resulted in an order from
Heir Noske, minister of defense,
that all found opposing the govern
ment troops with weapons would lie
shot immediately. Many Spartacans
were captured during the morning
and summary executions began at
once, the order of Herr Noske be
ing welcomed by the embittered
government forces.
Armed civilians stopped a Red
Cross ambulance to-day and killed
and wounded all the persons in it.
Another band of Spartacans clubbed
two soldiers to death and killed a
householder who attempted to in
terfere.
The government military com
manders anticipate it will take at
least two days of steady lighting
to break the Spartacan resistance in
the eastern part of Berlin —to cap
ture Lichtenberg and the suburbs
of Kopenick. Weissensee and Rum
melsburg. The communists, with
help from the criminal and hooligan
elements, continue to offer stout op
position and the government troops
naturally are making slow progress
in the street fighting. They are tak
ing no prisoners.
MEMORIAL BRIDGE TO
BE WORLD'S GREATEST
[Continued from First Rage.]
'Now we have something very good,
but couldn't you do a little bit better
for a little more money,' and again
the surprised architect and designer,
unused to that kind of talk, agreed
they could and the bridge as you
see it in model at the Capitol and in
drawing on the waals of this room
is the result."
"These men." said General Sny
der, "have expressed to the board (
that no place in the world is there
a bridge that can be compared with
this, and here he expressed the sen
timent of his fellows on the board
that the State can afford, and will
afford, to erect here the finest strue
ure of its kind anywhere."
Mr. Grciner Speaks
Mr. Greiner said he was not en
gaged to design the bridge but to
look after the engineering and—the
unseen parts of construction that if
they were not right would leave the
structure weak and unstable. He
agreed with Mr. Snyder in saying
that the viaduct will be the finest in j
the world.
"There v are others more elaborate
and more ornate," said he, "but
there will be none to surpass this in
inherient beauty of line and design.
It is our purpose to get a full dol
lar's worth for every dollar ex
pended in beautiful substance in the
erection of this structure."
Mr. Brunner's Adderss
Mr. Brunner, one of the noted ar
chitects of the world, addressed the
meeting at length, going fully into
the plans for the park, the office
buildings and the bridge as outlined,
using a series of drawings to illus
trate his remarks. He Said the
bridge is the result of collaboration
between himself and Mr. Greiner
working harmoniously to the same
end.
Mr. Brunner went fully into the.
details of the great development, as
recently pictured by the Telegraph
and decsribed by his at length and
said that it is his thought and the
thought of the members of the Board
of Public Works thatthe improved
park shall not only provide a fitting
setting for the Capitol, with addi
tional office building sto be erected
to meet the needs of the State, but
to beautify Harrlsburg and provide
in the center of the city a great rest
spot and playground for the people,'
together with a plaza for public I
demonstrations, inaugurations and |
other State functions.
He complimented Harrisburg on
what it has done in the way of
parks, and said that the Capitol i
Park will be a ctty park in the city,)
Just as our country parks are suited'
to their surroundings. He expressed'
his gratification over the good feel-i
Ings that exist between the city and !
the State and said that the Board!
of Public Buildings and Grounds bad'
said to him: "Mr. Brunner, in de
signing the x>ark extension do not
thnk of the State alone, but make a
beauty spot for Harrlsburg as well."
f That being the case, he continued, it
Mis up to Harrisburg to do its part In
1 the widening of streets, the regula
tion of building, the changing of
f street lines and the zoning of the
territory about the Capitol to pre
vent the erection of structures that
would mar the beauty of the de
velopment.
He pointed out that the proposed i
| | bridge is the first soldiers' and sailors' I
memorial worth talking about in the
United States that has got beyond the !
talking stage and is nearing construc
tion. He said that the bridge with its
; memorial pylons containing the names
of the soldier dead, would be unique to
Harrisburg, because the conditions here
. i are peculiar in that they permit of a
[ | great public park being connected up
. j with a most beautiful bridge. He out
| lined the eare with which the ap
proaches have been designed, one from
. Cameron street and another from Royal
> terrace, for the benefit of Hill people.
. and said he felt sure the city would do
s its full share.
i Mr. Brunner said he had never known
■ a situation like that here, where the
t city and state authorities are in such
! perfect harmony, and he was pleased
to announce that he had been author
j ized to go ahead with the park develop
! ment plans and those for at least one
[ oflice building. He predicte(%*ltat in a
short time Harrisburg people would he
gin to see the ideas embodied in the
sketches he presented begin to mate
j rialize and take form.
The meeting was followed by a con
' ferenee of state and city officials at 4
. o'clock this afternoon in the office of
i the Governor.
T. B. Donaldson to Head
State Insurance Office
Thomas Blaine Donaldson, of
Philadelphia, long active in alumni
affairs of the University of Penn
sylvania, will probably be appointed
insurance commissioner of Pennsyl
vania late to-day.
Mr. Donaldson has been connected
with the Insurance Department ever
since the Tenor administration.
| When the code of insurance laws
was enacted in 1911 Mr. Donaldson
i was named as special deputy com-
I misstoner in charge of winding up
j of companies and assoeiations which
had been doing a shady business or
become insolvent and* uncovered a
i ! chain of concerns which were put
out of busiess by the courts.
| The commissioner-to-be is a close j
I personal friend of the Governor and 1
nn authority on insurance laws. He j
| graduated from the university in .
j 1 899 and was for years active as an
' officer of the general alumni so
ciety.
Mr. Donaldson is a relative of Wil-
I liam M. Donaldson, the banker of '
this city, and well known to many;
Harrisburg people.
Legacy Cheats Poorhouse;
Beneficiary Was on Way
Scrantoii, Pa., March 11. —While!
on his way to the electric railway j
station to take a car for Clark's;
I Summit and the Hillside Home yes- .
terday, Harry t'ongdon, 32 years old, l
dropped into the post office and call- I
ed for mail. He was given a letter:
fiom an aunt in Syracuse, which ap- |
prised him that he had come into j
about $l,OOO willed by a relative
who died recently.
When Congdon received the unex
pected fortune he had 12 cents in
his pocket and a one-way ticket to
the poorhouse. The same letter
which notified him of his good luck
also contained an invitation to go
to Syracuse and make his home with
his aunt.
I -
i Washing Won't Rid
Head of Dandruff j
The only sure way to get rid of
dandruff is to dissolve it, then you
destroy it entirely. 1o do this, get i
about four ounces of ordinary liquid
arvon: apply it at night when retir
ing: use enough to moisten the scalp
and rub it in gently with the finger
tips.
Do this tonight, and by morning
most, if not all, of your dandruff will
be gone, and three or four more ap
plications will completely dissolve
j and entirely destroy every single
sign or trace of it; no matter how
much dandruff you may have.
You will tind, too. that all itching
and digging of the scalp will stop at
once, and your hair will be fluffy,
lustrous, glossy, silky and soft, and
look and feel a hundred times better.
You can get liquid arvon at any'
drug store. It is inexpensive and I
never fails to do the work.

Women Engineers
Form Trade Union
l.ondon, March 11.—Women en
gineers, one of the discoveries of the
war, have banded together in the
Woman's Engineering Society, a
I trade union, which was decided upon
j what the women term a "forward"
I movement.
| The women, who are doing tech
j nical work in government and con-
I trolled factories, as well as in pri
vately owned institutions, want
among other things:
Admission to the Amalgamated
Society of Engineers, to become
members of institutes of civil en
gineers, naval architects, iron and
steel and other bodies now closed
to women, to serve on the boards
of universities, and to become eligi
ble for technical branches of the
higher civil service.
"Women have no desire io take
men's places," is the way they put
their position. "But there will be
need for engineering products
throughout the world, and there will
be work for women as well as for
men."

Further investigations into the
cause of the Heaton freight smash
up last week, are being conducted on
the scene of the accident this after

p Meat: Russia and the Allies jjl
Russia crumbled away and failed the y|[
Allies largely through lack of food, accord- I
ing to an American eyewitness. |
With plentiful reserves and resources
virtually untouched, her people starred at 1
| home and at the front because there I
was no adequate organization to place
food where it was needed. If
Animals on the hoof were shipped thou- $
sands of miles to the various fronts, wasting
llt transportation facilities required for other ' I
purposes. They arrived shrunken and ema- J j
ciated, to be killed and dressed amidst filth a
and confusion behind the lines. Half of those II
brought from Siberia, it is said, perished on .
the way; many more were unfit for food. / ||
On the other hand, the American packers turned •| 1
live stock into meat in large sanitary plants located in
the producing sections, and shipped the product under
refrigeration so that it reached the trenches in France ,
in perfect condition, without waste. j/
Says Our Authority:
"Had such facilities for cold storage transportation
been available to the Russian supply committee as
were placed at the disposal of the quartermaster of
the United States by Swift & Company, there might
have been a different story concerning Russia's part
in the final drama of the war."
A large-scale packing industry would be an asset
to Russia, in war or in peace, as it has proved to be to
the United States.
The cost of this large scale industry in the form of
profits is only a fraction of a cent per pound of meat fit
