' Festival Under Direction cf Mrs. Ralph WMte, Great Success r There really was Wt of fairyland staged at the opera house last evening ; i ue Way i cstivsi. given under the : direction and training of Mrs. Ralph 1 White. And although cue or two of the ' wi'.lo, fairies did tall asleep and did drift into the vale of real fairyland, it all tilled to the interest of tuo ev ening. And while the average citizen is not Quite fture wkwher an Antprbiiii-' men (given by children really U an entertainment, the fact was shown last evening that wien properly drilled, the little ones can 4 some artistic worlt as well as the grown tips. The audience ivaa most liberal with encores and t was aimply bonause tlie audience was most wonderfully pleased. The windiug of the May pole by the little girls, the opening number show ed a stage wonderfully set with banks of flowers and lights in harmony with the slating. The dant-ing of the young sters was graceful and they did it as if really enjoying themselves. The strewing of flowers by the two and three year old (girls and their banking on tlie steps -of the throne macte a pretty avene and evinced the hearty applause of the audience. After noting 'how well th children were dancing and how carefully they had been trained, the audieulb pro ceedicd to enjoy itself enronrngiug the dangers with generous applause. Aiut when some little tot proceeded to al most fall asleep or take tlw liberty of walking off the stage riht in the midst of the show, at itcally amused all as well as the regular numbers. It was a good show and those who failed to see it missed one of the real ly entertaining evenings of the season. Pot when the little- ones enjoy their stage work, as tJiey did last evoniug, it all adds to the joyousnesg of t'hc occasion. For those who weren't quite sure whether the entertainment was worth while, it may ibte said that the children really did wouders, the costuming was really gorgeous and everyocdv enjoyed Lthemsclves, including the children.

EFFECTIVE BLOCKADE (Continued on page seven) TODAY'S WAR BULLETINS establishes tha! since the inspired an nouncement by the entire German-Austrian press regarding the impending of fensive against the Italians, indications are daily apparent of a complete reor ganization of the Austrian armies in that theatre aud of prepata.ons for an offensive. The Austrian have inaugurated a campaign of raids and reeonnaisanee usuniiy the prelude of a major attack.! Tlw Austrian high command apparently has divided its forces into two groups The effective divisions holding down! the Italian front, which were allowed :p decrease during tho winter, have been reinforced. The number of companies has been increased and the artillery tilled out. From various sources it is learned that extensive efforts are in progress for the purpose of restoring the com bative quality of the Austrian army. While ,dieso preparations soeiniugly indicate an offensive against Italy, al lied military officials recognize that this new military concentration could easily be thrown against the Franco- British front. .Reports from tho Macedonian front state that after a winter of inactivity the French and British have begun ac tivities, capturing several villages dur ing the past mouth. The Macedonian front is now lucid ex clusively by Bulgarians. The German di visions formerly there have been trans ferred to tho Freneh front aud into Asia Minor and Syria. Although Ger man officers are still commanding the arllcry and aviation uuits and the Bulgarians presumably are acting under tho German imperial staff, they do not give any evidence of an offensive. Active Artillery Fighting. Paris, May 11. "Active artillery fighting" around Grievesncs (where Americans arc in tli.c line) and Mailly- Hamcval (four miles northward), was reported by tho xreuch war office today. A surprise attack north of Grievesnes rcsul.ed in the capture of fifteen pris oners. A minor eperatiim in the Morcuil wood (two miles northwest of MaiHv- Baineval) gave the French 39 prisoners and several machine guns. Various raids southeast of Montdidicr and in the Wocvre region netted some prisoners and. material. French Troops Advance ....London, May 11. "French troops ad vanced their line northeast of Lucre yesterday evening and took several pris oners," Field Marshal tlaig repor.leu today. "A few prisoners and a machine gun were taken in sucessful raids west of Mcrville. "An attempted enemy raid est of Ypr was stopped by our fire." Government Will Go Out of Shipping Business San FrarucitK'o, May II. The divis ion of eperaition of the tufted States shipping board will tie discontinued af ter June 1, according to an announce ment at the lunal offices of tlw Unit ed State shipping board. According to this statement, tho gov ernment will go out of the ship oper ating buriuess; entirely and will turn over all its vessels to private compan ies. The reason given by shipping board officials is that foreign trade develop ment was not proceeding eotisfactorily under government management. Mem bers of the ship control committee, who are mostly officia's of steamer linr'S, were said to have convinced the shipping board heads that foreign trade could be 'handled nuwessfully only un der private control.
