WEILINGION, New Zealand, Feb ll-Residents of the devastated Hawk N BI»! district beginning to feel that they were to be spared further earth- quake visitations for a while, once more were terrified and driven from their temporary shelters by a new series of violent tremors today.

The quakes _i’.\‘led many buildings not wholly destroyed in last week's tremors, and toppled piles of mason- ry left standing then.

Enormous waves rushed in from the ocean and blltfiwed the beaches, forcing the panic stricken inhabit- ants to higher ground.

BIG JOB WELL DONE IN TINY KITCHEN 0F SCOT!‘ INSTITUTE TORONTO. Feb. lL-Cold, hungry,

B40 of the city's needy unemployed, men mostly, but women, too, came to the Scott Institute at 185 Eliza- beth street, ycsterday for a. meal with which to give them fresh strength to face the most discourag- ing of all tasks, looking for a job irlien jobs are almost as scarce as the proverbial hell's teeth.

In a. kitchen 12x12, roughly speak- ing, the food is prepared for these daily hundreds. That so great a task can be accomplished with such smoothness and efficiency in such cramped quarters ls something of a. marvel. To the Consumers’ Gas Com- pany the relief centre is indebted for the excellent equipment 0f BB8 plates upon which the huge kettles of soup and tea are prepared. With- out this equlpment, installed some time ago, the work could not pos- sibly be carried on on the present extensive scale.

It takes money and devoted energy on the part of the workers to get "the Scott's" daily job done.

The $100, therefore, which has come as a contribution from Rosdaltaoin as a contribution from Roseclale Presbyterian Church is most timely. And the ladies of Rosedale Presby- terian Church, is as have the ladies cf Calvin and St. Paul's and other churches, have given service on their appointd days.

And there has been a splendid

contrlbutoin of $80 from the carrier

boys of The Mail and Empire, which, I

in the careful hands of Rev. Morris

Zeldman, head of the institute, will i

go a long way in ministering to the _

needs of the hungry anl destitute.

LOS ANGELES, Feb. a-Adolfo De la Huerta, leader of two " ‘ - revolutions and once provisional pres- ident of the southern republic. is again in rebellion. this time at the head of an artistic revolt.

A frail, timid girl with wide eyes marched into De 1a. l-ieurtab voice Istudio today, stood before Maestro Adolfo and critics gathered there, and .sang the highest note ever produced 'by a human throat-a “C," three oc- taves above middle “C."

A critic refused to believe his hear- ing so another young woman, lass timid but scarcely more robust, marched in and did the same thing. Then the two girls went up another note in the scale, to “D," above the Witching high "C," Just to make it unanimous.

When a De la Huerta tenor stroll- ed ln and sang an “F” above that much rlighted high "C," the hlgliut male note since Rubini, monarch of tenors early in the nineteenth cent- ury. the revolt was on in earnest.

None of the astonishing notes squeaked. All were round and full as thesolid shot in those other noisier De la Huerta uprisings.

Musical Ship in Danger

The feminine vocalists were Leo- ‘nor Roses and Cora Montes, colorat- ura sopranos. The tenor was Lus de '1barguen. Their performances were in the nature of a wafning to sing- ers and vocal teachers that the mu-

“I like this kind of revolution bet- ter," remarked dc ls Huerta when his opening volleys had been fired. I-le had produced the high voices with the aid of a teachi method popular in Italy zoo years sac but sllshwi since. It was the Porpora. method. by which De la Huerta also hopes lo train Enrico Caruso, Jr., an adequate son of his father. who ruled "l0 kingdom of tenors until his death, ll years ago.
