Truly, Zoe Is the pivot of this par ticular musical production. which opened last night at the Helll?. She Is tho fine spike on which Is hung every song of any protentloua merit, tha loveliest voice Is he-rs In fact her'a Is the pnly one. Of the fat lines she draws a modest sharo, and docs danc ing enough for forty prima donnas. And with it all. she's such a perfectly gorgeous Oriental almost beauty, with her smiling scarlet mouth and dusky eyes, her Ethel Barrymoro voice, and her Gertie Hoffmann figure that tho audience last night rejoiced accord ingly. Whatever or whichever theatrical I-uther Burbank Is responsible for tha Zoe Karnett-Red Rose combination Is no slouch of a gardener. Once upon a time the musical comedy may have been possessed of a real honeet-to-goodnesa plot But after tho few bright lines and wealth of Inane situ ations had been distributed probably by drawing lots, since It made so little apparent difference after all this measuring out of portions there was barely enough to go around. So tha manufacturers of It all filled In with bright, sparkling songs, set to the sort of music you whistle as you leave tha theater. Also there Is a dance to ica along with every song, and a conven tion of the prettiest, re-ally Juvenile chorus maids and stalwart chorus men to provide a suitable background. After all these Items had ben at tended to, the managers told Zoe aha could have the rest. She'd hare needed the rest, too. If she'd responded to all the encores that the greedy audience wanted lastaiight. Her role la that of an artist's model, a Parislenne. and with her wonderful dash and grace of carrlare. she fits admirably to the role. Resides which she can act. There'a one song she has. "Bohemia." thdt she makes a triumph in dramatic value alone. She sings with-a rich fullness and her dancing Is amasingly Interesting. Of her songs. "Come Along.

BETTER FEELING EXPECTED Effort to He Made to Remove Suspi cions of Aggressive Designs or Desire to Aggravate Increase of Armament. BERLIN". Feb. I. Viscount Haldane. the British Secretary of War, accom panied by hla brother, arrived here today. Ostensibly tha visit la purely private, but it la altogether probable that Haldane will take tha opportunity of discussing Anglo-German relationa with Dr. von Bethmann-Hollweg, tho Imperial Chancellor, and Herr von Kiderlln-Waechter, the Secretary of State for Foreign Affairs, and of learning from them on what condltiona Germany Is Inclined to listen to over tures for their betterment. The Bagdad Railway and German colonial expansion In Africa have for a long time been under discussion as subjects in regard to which Great Britain might indicate ber good will to Germany In a tangible manner. LOXDON. Feb. T-The Foreign Of fice authorises the following statement respecting the visit of Viscount Hal dane, Secretary of War, to Berlin: "Viscount Haklane. as president of the royal commission on university education, has gone to Berlin to Inves tigate scientific education In German universities, but as he is well-known to many of the leading people of Ger many, he donbtless will have general conversations on the political situa tion and the relations between tho two countries." All the London morning papers dwell on tha significance of Secretary H al ii line's visit to Berlin. The correspond ents say the Emperor will send him an invitation. F.atrate Ie Hoped For. -Tho Dally Chronicle, a government organ. In an editorial pointing; out that Secretary Haldane is a friend of the German Emperor and persona grata. everywhere in Germany, says: "We are sure that Viscount ai- dane's sojourn among the German peo-. nle will be another step towaras ine days vi-hen It will not be too soon ser- loueiyto taut ui u euiouh?. The Times says that, although Sec retary Haldane haa no direct official mission, doubtless his presence might be used to comply with tho wish re cently expressed by high quarters In Berlin for an open talk with some members of tha British government. gaaplrloa to Be Removed. "Great Britain's position during the Moroccan negotiations waa ao widely misunderstood in Germany," conunuee tha Tlmea, "that sha la credited even In the best disposed German quarters with aggressive designs upon German security. Viscount Haldane should be better able tban anyone else ta re move such suspicions and make It per fectly clear that, although Great Bri tain mav be obliged to respond to any increase of German armaments, there la no desire on Great Britain's part to Intensify International rivalry in arm- amenta. "But It cannot be too emphatically stated that there Is no question or making offers to Germany either In the colonial field or elsewhere." FRAUD CURB FAVORED CHAMBEly OP COMMERCE COM.

J. Blanchard, Would Help Solve Problem. NEW YORK, Feb. . 'The necessity of expediting1 tho reclamation of in creased areas of our desert Is obvious," said C. J. Blanchard. atatiatlclan of the Reclamation Service, In an address to night before tho Union League Club. Thla" Is apparent," ho continued, "when we consider that 160,000 good American citizens are leaving our country ' every year to take up homea under another flag because opportuni ties in this country are limited." - "Our public domain, once an empire In extent, today offers no opportunity for the poor man," said Mr. Blanchard. "It will not produce crops without an expenditure of money beyond the means of tho average citizen." The Investment of half the cost of tho Panama Canal would add vast amounts to the National wealth, Mr. Blanchard said, and continued: "Conservative engineers say that there are yet 30.000.000 acres of desert to which water can be supplied and 80.000,000 acres of swamp and over Mowed lands which can be drained. The economic importance of such a work as this scarcely can be realized. The reclamation of this vast area would provide homes on the land for 2.760,000 families, each family occu pying a 40-acre farm. The addition of our Natlon'a wealth In land values alone would bo not lesa than til, 000, 000,000, or ten tlmea the amount of our National debt."
