Batavia, Java.—Madame Nordica Is
Bead. Pneumonia, contracted from
the shock and exposure of a ship-
wreck on Thursday Island in the An-
tipodes, ended the career of one of
the world’s most famous singers, Just
as she had started upon what she had
planned would be her farewell tour
of the world.
Lillian Nordica was an American !
singer of world wide fame. Her ad-
mirers ranged from the men of the
Bowery section of New York, where
she had sung at mission meetings, to
the moat critical box holders of grand
opera houses in all of the world's
great musical centers. The purity of
her voice, employed In many tongues,
had delighted hundieds of thousands
since the day forty years ago, she
first appeared In public as soprano
soloist at Grace church In Boston.
A farm house built by the prima
donna's grandrnther on a hill just out-
side the village of Farmington, Me.,
•was Nordica's birthplace in 1859. Her
true name was Lillian Norton. She
changed It to the Italian Nordica,
twenty years later when she began to
study in Italy for an operatic career.
Her debut In opera was at Brescia,
In 1879 in "La Travlate.” After a trip
to St. Petersburg she appeared for
trial before Ambrose Thomas and the
impreaaario, Vancorbell, who engaged
her for the Grand opera House in
Parla.
Triumphs at Homs.
She returned to America and toured
this country was great success. In
the succeeding years she appeared In
grand opera or concert in almost ov
ery city of musical culture In the
world. Her repertoire included more
than llfty operas. Her success with
Wagnerian roles became the pinnacle
of her fame. At Bayreuth in 1894 she
appeared as Elsa In "Lohengrin,” and
she Is, perhaps, best remembered in
that part. 8he received decorations
of various sorts abroad, and gifts
Without number from friends at home.
Her matrimonial ventures num-
bered three. She was tlret married in
188J to Frederick A. Gower, a wealthy
electrician and a native of her state
of Maine, whom she met in Paris.
Shortly after she had begun separa-
tion proceedings In 1884, Gower dis-
appeared. He attempted a balloon trip
•cross the English channel. Although
the balloon was later found, nothing
was ever heard or seen of him.
Accident Causes Pneumonia.
In 1898, Mme. Nordica married Zol-
tan Doeme, a Hungarian army officer
and singer, from whom she secured
a divorce In 1905.
Her third marriage was In London
In 1909 to Geo. W. Young, a wealthy
New York banker. It was announced
at that time that Nordica would re-
tire from the stage, but after a honey-
moon spent in part at the old Norton
homestead In Maine, she decided upon
a farewell concert court of the world.
It was while making one leg of this
trip on the Butch steamer Tasman,
that the vessel ran ashore on Thurs-
day Island In the Antipodes. The
ahock of the accident and exposure
brought on pneumonia. Mme. Nor-
dica’s admirers felt it to be a partic-
ularly tragic circumstance that the
famous singer should have fallen dan-
gerously ill on the other aide of the
world.

able among them the Vanderbilt uni-

mended that this problem be referred
to a committee of five from the gen-
eral conference. On the subject of
new bishops, the college recommend-
ed that no new ones be elected.
Settlement of the Vanderbilt ques-
tion is uppermost In the minds of the
delegates and officers. Since 1905 the
church has had this matter under con-
sideration. On March 21, 1914. the

down the opinion which took away
from the church any control It might
have exercised over the school prev-

Washington.—While the Mexican
situation is outwardly calm pending
the formal opening of the conference
of South American mediators at Nia-
gara Falls, Canada, May 18, there con-
tinued an active undercurrent of dis-
cussion and preparation for the peace
plans and at the same time definite
reports reached the constitutionalist
headquarters here of sweeping victor-
ies of their forces near San Luis Poto-
sl and other points far south of Sal-
tillo, where It was thought their next
big battle would occur.
Genera! Carranza’s messages show-
ed that three converging campaigns
were in active operation, each within
300 miles of Mexico City. General
Obregon with 15,000 men operating
from the Pacific coast side had cap-
tured all the intervening territory,
was beseiging Mazatlan
Another division. General Carran-
za reported, had fought a battle at
I enzacos, near San Luis Potosi, which
is 300 miles north of Mexico City.
This is the southermost point which
the constitutionalists have reached In
central Mexico and with the army
now attacking Tampico they declare
that the general advance on the Mex
ican capital is to be made within a
few weeks from three sides.
The significance of these constitu-
tionalist successes lay in the fact that
San Luis Potosi is far south of Sal-
tillo and only 300 miles from Tampico
on the west and Mexico City on the
south. General Carranza’s report of
the desperate condition of the feder-
ate at Mazatlan was coincident with
reports from Read Admiral Howard,
who stated that a land and sea en-
gagement was carried on there, the
constitutionalists firing rifles and field
guns from Piedro Island, while the
federal gunboat Morelos was support-
ed by the federal shore batteries.
Asid© from the notable constitu-
tionalist successes, the chief military
development of the week was the au-
thorization to General Funston to ex-
tend his lines at Vera Cruz as might
be required for defensive purposes
without, however, undertaking any
aggressive operations. A report also
came from Genera! Funston that he
could secure no definite information
as to the active movements by the fed-
erals under General Maas, bat he con-
strued what they were doing as being
merely defensive.
Revolution has been in progress In
Mexico since January, 1911, when
Madero began his insurrection against
Diaz. At that time Diaz had been
dictator under the title of president,
since 1876, with the exception of one
term.
American magazine writers in 1909
described in detail the horrors of
Mexican peonage, the barbarism of
Mexican prisons and the long reign
of favoritism to classes and wrong and
injustice to the
helped to fan into ____
300 Popular discontent, which blazed out
into a general conflagration when
Madero made his presidential cam-
paign against Diaz in the summer of
1910, on- a platform of radical re-
form. Suppressed for the moment by
arrest, he escaped Into the United
States, and in January, 1911, returned
to Mexico and issued his now famous
proclamation—the Mexican declara-
tion of independence—demanding the
overthrow of the Diaz tyranny and
promising sweeping constitutional and
economical reforms, chief among
which was a new and fairer system
of agricultural tenure.
Would Not Make Term*.
Starting in the mountains of Chi-
huahua, Coahuila and Sonora, the up-
rising had become formidable by
February, when Madero was joined
by Orozco. Blanco and Pancho Villa
and in May the combined forces cap-
tured Juarez an important point near
the Mexican border.
Diaz attempted to make terms
with the revolutionists, but Madero in-
sisted on his retirement, and Diaz
finally agreed to retire. On May 25,
1911, he left the capital and a few
days later sailed tar Europe, where he
has since been watching with keen in-
terest the course of events in the
country where for more than thirty
jears he had exercised the supreme
power of unlimited despotism.
Insurrections broke out, one of
them under his former associate. Gen-
eral Orozco, who was defeated by
Huerta, and outbreaks continued from
time to time and delayed the plan of
national reconstruction.
Felix Diaz a Failure.
In October, 1912, Gen. Felix Diaz,
nephew of the former dictator, start-
ed a revolt at Vera Cruz but was ar-
rested, sentenced to death and impris-
oned pending a new trial, in Santiago
prison in Mexico City, where Gen.
Bernardo Reyes, a close friend of the
elder Diaz, was at that time confined
for attempting to organize a revolu-
tion against Madero about a year pre-
vious.

8harp Fighting on Eaat Coast.
The naval situation was shown In
reports from Rear Admiral Badger as
to the Atlantic coast points and from
Rear Admiral Howard as to condi-
tions on the Pacific coast side. Admlr
al Badger stated that pharp fighting
bad occurred between Mexican feder-
al* and constitutionalists midway be-
tween Vera Crus and Tampico and he
added that rumors reached him
through Admiral Mayo that some of
Villa’s forces intended to take and
burn the city of Tampico. Admiral
Mayo put no faith In reports of a truce
between federads and constitutional-
ist elements about Tampico.
Congress again came Into the Mex-
ican situation when a caustic debate
occurred in the senate over the reso-
lution of Mr. Lippitt of Rhode Island
asking President Wilson for Informa-
tion as to his reported support of
Pancho Villa for next ruler of Mexico.
The resolution finally was tabled by
a viva voce vote, but not until Sena-
tor Lippitt had discussed reports of
the administration’s support of the
"VllUanous Villa,” the lending at Vera
Crus and other incidents.
Tbe South American mediators com-
pleted their plans for beginning ttaeh

February 8, 1913, marked the begin-
ning of the end of the Madero admin-
istration. On that date a number of
regiments at the capital revolted and
military cadets stormed the military
prison and released Felix Diaz and
Reyes, who put themselves at the
head of the rebels and captured the
citadel and armory, with large stores
of arms and munitions. For days the
capital was the scene of a terrific and
destructive battle. General Huerta

remained loyal to Madero.

The events of the last year are fresh

firmly refused to recognise Huerta’s
suspicious title, sent John Lind to
Mexico to Investigate tho situation
and to advise Huerta not to be a can-

A few weeks later the so-called eleo>
tlons took place, an Insignificant vote

CAU8E AND EFFECT
Good Digestion Follows Right Food.
Indigestion and the attendant dis-
comforts of mind and body are cer-
taln to follow continued use of Im-
proper food.
Those who are still young and ro-
bust are likely to overlook the fact
that, aa dropping water will wear a
stone away at last, so will the use of
heavy, greasy, rich food, finally cause
loss of appetite and Indigestion.
Fortunately many are thoughtful
enough to study themselves and note
tbe principle of cause and effect la
their dally food. A N. Y. young von-
•o writes her experience thus:
"Sometime ago I had a lot of trou-
ble from Indigestion, caused by too
rich food. I got so I was unable to
digest scarcely anything, and medi-
cines seemed useless.
"A friend ad vised me to try Grape-
Nets food, praising It highly and aa

lieved me of ay trouble, but built

gans so that 1 can bow eat anything I
desire. But 1 stick to Grape-Nuts ”
