THE MISSES 8H0NT8.
Very late London advice* state that
a good many parties ar* being given
for Mies Marguerite and Mlu Theodora
Shonta, the daughters of Theodore Per
ry Bhonte, of Panama canal tame. Un
leu there la something out of the com.
mon about debutantes they get no at
tention whatever. These two girls are
rather unique In their way. eo they nl
ready commund notice. They have a
certain simplicity and frankness, which
of late has not characterised the
American debutante, who le too much
given to assuming the "venl, vidL vlcl'
air. Perhaps It Is becauu ths Mluea
Hhonts have passed the greater part of
their lives In their parents' plantation
home, Daphne, Ala., that they are so
characteristically unaffected. They
sing coon songs which have never be
fore been heard In England, and accom
pany them with the banjo. The king
recently heard them sing at Conauelo,
duchess or Manchester's, and requested
their mother to come with them to tea
nt Buckingham palace that the queen
might hear them sing. Next day the
king sent one of the royal motors for
the girls and their mother, and Queen
Alexandra was regaled all the after
noon with plantation eonga, accompa
nied by the banjo. The Misses’ Shonta
have been studying In Parte for the
lut two years, und have devoted much
of thetr time to music. Their mother
has been made moat Indignant by of
fers of colossal sums which have been
made to these clever amateurs by a
mualo hall manager. The glrla them-
Ivea. who are lull of fun, liave been
very keen on accepting an “engage-
mint" and told her majesty so
The queen remarked Immediately that
"even for fun,’’ young glrle who had
homes of their own ana rich parents
should not go on the stage, as In ao
doing, they might be taking employ
ment from others.
This visit of Mrs. Shonts and her
daughters to Buckingham palace has
caused a great, amount of Jealousy, as
the fact of the queen haring received
utmost complete strangers In this In
formal way Is a unique compliment—
one which te not accorded by h«e once
In years.

le aafe to say that many of the moet
enthusiastic can not read a note of
music. They know that the work of
a master le to be performed, and
Is but natural for every mind to seek
the beet that Is offered for lu own de
velopment. There Is no difference li
this respect between good music and
good books.
“So, when we consider this dsslra
on the part of the public for the high
est music, their eagerness to grasp the
opportunity afforded for hearing It,
compared to the persuasion that was
required to Induce the general public
to attend a concert a comparatively
few years ago, ws are bound to con
cede that classic music Is popular.
"Llgbt opera and characteristic
pieces are usually mere musical orna
ments of the hour, but with the right
Jingle have a large following. Tsiey
are a part of a musical education from
a concert-goer’s standpoint, and should
be encouraged by program builders.
It Is necessary to Introduce the masses
to the heavier compositions by degrees.
The relaxation white enjoying a fa
vorite light number arouses two-fold
Interest In that which le to follow. The
tendency toward the higher In music
on the part of the public la exceed
Ingly gratifying. 80 far as my own
alms are concerned, T Intend that my
band shall play selection* of all degrees
and character. So that each listener
may ha Ye the Individual taste gratl
fled.
"In a word, I maintain that a ‘pop
ular program’ has come to mean both
frivolous and serious selections, with
the good, solid' material- predominating.
Thus you fret arouse and amuse your
heprera and then tempt them Into fol
lowing you Into the domain of the clas

Personal Mention

THE POPE'8 VIEW8 OF WOMAN,
The pope's views on the destiny of
woman are published In the form of an
Interview with the pontiff granted to
Madame Camille Thelmer, the well-
known Viennese novelist, who la active
In the cause of feminism.
Contrary to the opinion generally
held, the pope did not declare against
the emancipation of woman, "which,
he raid, "can only ennoble her aoul by
developing In her the deelre for study
and work. The rhurch approves the
woman who by her labor does her ut
most to become the true associate of
man, to contribute to the well being of
the home, while remaining her hus
band's helpmeet, a vigilant and tender
mother ana an Indulgent consoler."
"Does your holiness approve," aaked
Mme. Thehner, "the admission of wom
en to the liberal professions?”
“All that tends to raise the moral and
Intellectual level of humanity," replied
the pope, ’’Is worthy of our encourage
ment, always provided that It does not
violate Christian laws It Is well that
women are freeing themselves from the
heavy yoke that society has Imposed on
them for centuries. It le well that they
are able to master their own means of
sxlstence.
"For my part, I see nothing to pre
vent them from being lawyers or doc
tors; doctors especially, eo that they
can give proper care to their children,
which In all times has been their natu
ral avocation. Education le also one of
the professions which suit them beet.
Are they not the first teachers of their
children, and thua of all humanity?"
"Doea the rhuivh authorise us to en
gage In politics?"
with an expressive gesture of his
hand the pope exclaimed: "Never
that!"
"Women,” he continued with a quiet
smile ot Irony, “ought not In any case
to mix themselves In public affairs.
They will be neither electors nor elect
ed. Indeed, men have enough trouble
already In agreeing among themselves;
they do enough to bring disorder into
parliaments."
WHAT IS A POPULAR CONCERT?
In writing of popular cuncerts, Wil
liam Well, the great bandmaster, says;
"It la difficult to define a *poputar
concert program.' Whetum a program
le popular or not depends entirely upon
the Individual listener. It has been
raid that selection* of a classical na
ture are not popular. This may have
been true, but It Is not so today, it Is
noticeable that the largest audiences
attend concerts that are called classi
cal, especially Wagner concert*, and
those who attend are not all musi
cians and do not follow the score as
the performance progresses. Indeed, It

rious Fourth of July will be ushered
In by Young America on Wednesday
morning.
Forecaster Marbury of the weather
bureau predict* occasional showers for
Atlanta throughout the holiday, but
that Is not worrying the pleasure-
seekers, for It frequently happens that
even the weather man is mistaken In
hiv forecasting. So plans have been
going merrily on for the sports and
outings of the day, and unless a verit
able downpour of rain shall come
nothing should happened to mar the
enjoyment of the day.
No matter what a person's disposi
tion may be, he le sura to find some
thing on the day’s program to amuse
him. Thera will be picnics galore,
both private and public, and many will
,epend the day quietly In this way.

a good exhlblton of the national game
satisfied, for there will be • game In

artist against Nashville for Atlanta in
the morning cpnteet, and “Doc" Childs
will suetaln the honor of the team In
the afternoon. Hundreds of excur
sionists are coming to Atlanta Just to
see the great and only Atlanta ball
team play and especially to see Childs
In tha box, for he Is a Georgia boy
with hosts of friends.
Tennis and 8Hooting.

uous games, golf, tennis and gun
shoota have been arranged. There
will be no formal contests In golf, but
the visitors and citizens of Atlanta
will be given their first opportunity of
seeing a lawn tennis tournament. This
tournament started on the East Lake
grounds Tuesday afternoon and will
reach Its height on Wednesday. Sev
eral of the most famous players In the
South are In the city to, either play or

Interest In the outcome. The contests

and In the afternoon at 3 o'clock. Vis
itors should take the South Decatur
cars to East Lake.
Both the Atlanta Gun Club and the

but no formal program has been an
nounced by either club. Interesting
contests will be arranged, however,
any lovers of that sport will see some
rare shooting. ,

hour—10 o'clock In the morning—and
at the same place, the state capital.
The Populists will meet In the senate
chamber and the Socialists In the
house.
Populist Convention.
The Populist convention promise* to
be warm enough for even the Fourth
of July, for there I* a wide difference
of opinion os to whether or not a tick-
at should be put In the field for the fall
elections. At ths last meeting of the
state body It was voted to put a ticket
In the field, but the opposition was so
strenuous that many believe that an
other vote will result differently. Del
egates from Fulton county to the state
meeting at 10 o'clock will be chosen at
a session to be held at the same place
at 9 o'clock. The Socialist convention
promises to be oulet nnd the prospects
are for a small attendance, although a

tlon In Atlanta at 9 o’clock In the

hall, on Forsyth street, has been se
cured for the gathering, and with the
