. RASPUTIN'S SLAYER
Among the latest documents of his
torfcal interest, relating to the life
.’nl‘ld {leath of the last emperor and
his, family, to be made public by the
Sbflet government is the correspond
e'n_cp yvhicll passed between Empress
Alexandra and Prince Felix Yousoup
oft' regarding the murder of the Monk
‘Refuputin.
“Replying to Alendra’s demand for
taff ‘egplanation of the circumstances
of ?Ruspuun's assassination, Prince
Ybusupofr, who now lives in Paris,
tried at first to convince the Empress
g}}g_t he was innocent of contributing
to the monk’s death.
““Later, however, when it Lecame
clear that he was ove of the partici
pggljta; in the murder, he wrote a let
te'it"o his ‘mother-inJaw, the Grand
| pigcfié;a, Xenia Alexandria, a sister
of : Bmperor Nicholas, admitting the
deed and saying that he was “an in
gtrument of ‘Providence for exterm -
nating the evil spirit of Rasputin
which was the shame of Russia in
tlie’ eyes of the whole world.”
"“mmpress Alexandra’s only respons:
to Yousupoff was a brief note written
in pencil and unaddressed:
“Nobody is entitled to commit as
sassinations. I know that the lack
ipg;! of ‘conscience trouble many peo
-nf‘e." Since not only Demetrius Pav
fq;‘ltch is implicated in thiz, I am
a@i'o’tlluhed at your application to me.”
',"k;'ftor;"hp had been bantshed from
Fe&rymd for his part in Rasputins

motherdn-law the following letter
from his place of exile, in which he
agmitted his gulit: ,

ENCOURAGING ARTISTS |
l When three American girls recent- |
'ly made their debuts with the Melro-!
’politan Opera Company, the publlc‘
zave them enthusiastic receptions. l
These were well and good and en
couraging to the young singers ass
they started their careers on thefl
same stage where many of the world‘s;l
greatest, opera stars have appeared. ’
But hefore then and later con t,h:.!l
same occasions of public m-claim,l
they received another kind of wel
come-—just as important—from older
members of the company.
This consisted of assistance during
relrearsals, words of cheer prior to
the girls made their first cm.mnccl
before the audience, consideration dur
ing the progress of ihis operas and
commendation after the curtain had
fallen on the final acts.
“Every one in lh_e company has
been perfectly lovely to me,” zaid
Marion Talley. “Just before I went
on in Rigoletto, several of the artists,
including Gigli, Ma(larfie Peralto and
Grace Anthony, came by my dressing
room and said the little things that
mean $0 much when a test has to be
met.
“Gatta-Casazza, Serafin, Lauri-Vol
pi and De 'Luca—in fact every one
there has heen most considerate and
helpful.”
Mary Lewis, who came to opera
from the ranks of the chorus girls,
said the spirit with which she had
been received within the company
surpassed all other similar experience
while abroad. ?
“They have done all any one
could expect or ask,” she said. “They
still are helping us. The welcome has
come not only from the artists them
selves, but from every one backstage,
including the stage'i\ands."
Dorothea Flexer made her appear
ance as the aged Madelon in “Andre
Chenier” without having pfeviously
rehearsed with the company. Her
time on the stage was brief, but she
‘said that even then she could feel the
‘sympathetic interest of the other mem
bers. :
Rosa Ponselle, another American in
the compgny, was duye in another city
the day Miss Talley made her debut,
but. she remained to hecar the new
singer,
I confess myself dolighted,” Anton
io Scotti said in roferring to Miss
Talley's periormance. Lovely and
true to the pitch is her voice. With
greater maturity she will improve.”
When Schumann-Heink returned to
the company after an absence of nine
years, she did so with a plea that the
critics not be too severe in judging
the girl's voice.
- “Wait until Marion has met her
Prince Charming, has had the expor
dences of married life and has known
the joys and sorrow of motherhcod,”
she said. “Then provided she con
‘ tinues studying and learning, she will
!be ready for judgement.’
; Lucrezia Bori, whose slim finger be
lies the fact that she is a prima don
na, expressed the attitude of numer
ous foreign members of the company
when she said: -
“1 am glad to see the entrance of
Americans into the company not only
on acéount of the personal reward it
may mean for them, but for the en
couragement it will give other Ameri
can singers and the development of
music in this country.”
INDIA’S RELIGIOUS WAR ‘
I'rom the Philadelpha Record: |
Martial law, enforced by strong
military patrols armed with ma
chine guns, has finally quelled the
savage rioting between Hindus and
Mosglems which had prevailed for
three days and nights in the native
quarters of Calcutta. But the imme
morial hatreds which caused the dis
orders have only been intensified.
The incident is of world interest
because it reveals anew the baffling
complexity of the problem of India’s
political destiny. For many years,
but especially since the great war,
when the doctrine of self-determina--
tion of the Asiatic peoples, India bhas
been the scene of intermittent cam
paigns for self-government. Incited
by various leaders and prophets pro
claiming their right to freedom, th 2
masseg have remained unsatisfied by
Great Britain's concessions in the
forms of legislative councils and
alted their ideal of Swaaraj, orl
home rule. Some extremists have!
even preached a crusade in behalf off
independence and the overthrow of!
all British authority.
But always the most formidable ob
stacle to the movement has been the
division of the vast population intol
irreconciliable racial and religious|
groups, separated by historic enmi-l
ties and insuperable traditions of
caste. Morevover, widest chasm has’
been that Hetween the two largcst|
clements, the Hindus and the Mos
lems. The former are numerically in
a majority of three to one, but the
followers of Mohamet are thc Mor?
fanatical and aggressive, o that fl"""i
two forces ave constantly f‘nfltl"»‘il('d.l
The chief cause of strife lics rfl
course, in the differences of rveiio--
jon, which produce perpetual fl'ir::.ia.n!
wherever the two races live t",:.;‘;.'.lcr}
in congested areas. The Moslem prac
tice of sacrificing cows is a hideous
form of sacrilege to the Hindu mind
which holds that animal in sancity,
while the Mohamedans are infuriat
ed by th pagan processions and the
images of the Hindu system of wor
ship. Zealots on each side keep alive
the *hostility by violent agitation,
with the result that from time to
time mosques and temples are raided
and defiled by hostile mobs until the
attacks and reprisals produce evrita
ble battles.
Mahatma Ghandi, the mystic lead:
er of the Swarap movement, reach--
ed the pinnacle of his eareer when
in 1920 he brought the warring races
into seeming accord. For a time it
appeared as though the strife of cen
turies had ended. Militant Hindus
were invited to preach in mosques
Moslem priests to officiate. in [tem
ples, and followers of both faiths pex'l
formed their roligious' aboultions to
gether in the Ganges to emphasize
their unity on the policy of “non
co-operation’” with the Bg’tish.
But rivalry for political offices
caused constant irritation, and the
peace was utterly shattered when a
Hindu monk converted several thous
ands natives whose ancestors genera
tions ago had been forced to become
Moslems. Since the ancient war has
“been- proseemtted with increasing fe-

rocity on both sides. “Today” writes
a noted Hindu leader in Current
History, ‘a spirit of rivalry, hatred.
revenge and mistrust is splitting
apart those who only yesterday were
marching arm in arm under the ban

struggle, he says, rather than any
foreign oppression, which is ‘“de

| There is no reason why cake-making ™ ¢S
should be less successful than any
other cooking operation—when the
cook can _depend upon her stove. T /@ |
THAT is the statement of six
famous cooks who have just com
pleted a practical cooking test of the
Perfection Stove. All six agreed in
praising the Perfection highly for its
baking ability, as well as for its
general performance.
“Speaking of cakes, half the making
is in the baking,” said Miss Rosa
Michaelis, New Orleans, domestic
science specialist.
Delicate Angel Food
“An even temperature must be main
tained while an angel food and other
cakes are baking,” added Miss Mar
garet A. Hall, nutrition expert of the
Battle Creek College of Home Econo
mics. “When I baked cakes in the
Perfection oven I used a standard,
portable oven thermometer as a check.
The flame did not creep or crawl. You
can depend on the Perfection flame to
remain as you set it.”
“My orange cakes and devil’s foods
* were delicious,” commented Mrs. Kate
B. Vaughn, Los Angeles, household
economics director. “The air circu
lation in the Perfection oven seems
. perfect. All excess moisture was
carried away.” .

“It’s the ‘live heat’ of the Perfection
Oven which brings such good re
sults,” said Mrs. Rorer, famous Phila
delphia cook.
“The Perfection oven is so roomy that
there is room for several cakes at a
time,” said Mrs. Belle DeGraf, San
Francisco. “And, through the glass
door of the oven you can see just how
they are baking. No need to open the
door and lose any heat.”
Miss Lucy G. Allen, of the Boston
School of Cookery, commented on the
visible oil supply. “You can see,” she
remarked, “whether you have enough
for your cooking. If not, it’s easy to
refill the Perfection reservoir without
soiling your hands.” o »
High Praise
These are just a few of Perfection’s
good baking points which the six ex
pert cooks praised highly. You will
find many others when you bake on a
Perfection. It’s the stove which proves
cake-baking is no¢ difficult,
