INTHUSIASTIC WELCOME GIVEN
roets don't all hare long bair.
For example, Alfred Noyes of Lon
don, who was the guest of the
Omaha Society of Fine Arts and the
Palimpsest club yesterday.
Mr. Noyes hasn't much hair at a'.l
and what he has he wears brushed
down smooth. He is a smooth-fared
young man and wears glasses.
For an hour last night he recited
his poems to business and profes
sional men of Omaha and their
wives at a banquet of th Faltmpsest
clnb in the ball room of the Fonte
nelle hotel, and they seemed to en
joy It. Even beautiful Mrs. Noyes
seemed to like her husband's rendi
tion of hit poetry.
v John L. Webster presided. Mr.
and Mrs. Noyes eat beside him. Mr.
anfi Mrs. Gurdon Wattles and Mrs.
C. T. Kountte were also at the
speaker's table. The tables were
decorated with roses and greenery
and a bank of palms stood back of
the speaker's table.
Mr. Noyes" poem are not profound.
There la no nd for foot notes. The
wisdom of a Hscon. a Milton, a Shakes
peare, a Browning; or a Uyron la not
found in them Ir. sliKhtest degree. Thy
re little, limn lyric which depend for
their effect on their mualc and cadence.
Implo Theatre All.
They deal with the simplest subjects.
One was a ballad of Sherwood forest and
Robin Hood and his merry band Of
thlevea. Another told the story of an Inn
keeper'a daughter who sacrificed her life
to save her robber lover. Another recited,
In simple sailor lanruaa-e. of a visit to
the present home of ancient Preater John
by some aailors from London town. Ftlll
another described children dancing around
a "barrel orcan" or hurdy-gurdy.
Mr. Noyes recited a few that were pa
triotic and spoke of "oaken-hearted Eng
land." And he closed with one which
pictured the ITltlsh fleet scouring the
seas grimly for Britain's enemies. He
said It was "a war poem by a pacifist."
"War Is a moat hldooua evil, but I be
lieve there are worse evils," was one of
only two or three remarks he made aside
from reciting; the poems.
Introducing has final short "war poem,"
he told a terae little Incident as aa Illus
tration of war conditlona, events and
states of mind In England today.
"Shortly before I left England." he
suld. "I was In the office of a publisher
when an elderly man In a shabby coat
entered.
' 'Did you hear about ArthurT Inquired
the publisher.
" 'Yes.' said the man In a quiet, grim
voice; 'he was shot through the heart'
"His manner was so strange that I
anid. W as he some relative of yoursT
" 'My son,' be answered, simply. 'My
other boy waa killed laat week.1"
Mr. and Mr a. Noyea left at 10 o'clock
laat evening for Chicago.
"Fracticalljr all European literature
during the laat twenty years has been
destructive and negative." Alfred Noyes
asserted In the course of the aeries of
readings of his own poems, which ha
gave before the Omaha tioclety of Fine
Arta In the afternoon.
"Buch a period of negative and de
structive literature preceded the French
revolution." he continue, "and I believe
the present terrible war in Europe Is
partly due to the same sort of literary
period."
Mr. Noyes made these remarks In ex
planation of one of hla poems. "Origin of
Lire," which he said he wrote several
years ago aa a reply to a skeptlo and
atheistic work by a German author. The
poem ended with the Old Testa
ment's opening- theme. "In the beginning,
God "
Aadleace Eat haslaat lo.
lr. Noyea was given a very hearty and
euthualaatlo reception by the audience,
which filled the bait room of the Hotel
Fontenelle. Frequent applause Inter
rupted the poet, aa well aa approved hla
aeveral readlns. Many of hla passages
and remarka were humorous. Hla read
ing waa delightfully natural and, aa he
expllaned, he sought to recite the poems
aa he wrote them, rather than aa an elo
cutionary performat.ee. He waa patriotic
and loyal to Britain In his utterances, or,
as he put It, be admitted himself to be
unneutral.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 7. A bril
liant reception given at the White
House tonight by President and Mrs.

paid visiting delegates to the Pan
American Scientific congress during
the last two weeks. In numbers pres
ent and in splendor the affair sur
passed anything of the kind seen in
Washington In recent years.
Martial music and handsome cos
tumes lent color to the scene.
For more than three hours Latin
American scientists and diplomats,
government officials, members of the
senate and house, Jurists and other
invited guests passed down the re
ceiving line in a steady stream.
By the side of the president stood hla
bride .of less than three weeks, who to

aa mistress of the White House. Mrs.
Wilson, smiling continually as she shook
hands with the guests, wore a magnifi
cent white satin gown with a lonu train,
brocaded In silver.
Held la Blae Roam.
The reception was held In the historic
Blue room, but the entire first floor of the
mansion waa thrown open to the guests.
They assembled In the East room and
passed through the Green room to the
receiving line and through the Red room
to the great state dining room, where a
buffet aupper waa served. In the entrance
hall was assembled tho red-uniformed
marine band, playing stirring music.
More than 4,000 men and women shook
hand with the president and at timea the
carriage line outside extended six blocka
away.
Members of the cabinet and otner espe
cially Invited guesta assembled early and
long before 9:30 o'clock, the time set for
the opening of the reception, the east
I entrance of the White House waa
crowded.
Military and naval aides In full dress '
uniform were on duty at all points and
directed the crowd. Before the arrival
of the official receiving party the parlors
were filled with members of conicress and
their wives and prominent officials and
diplomats.
Walk Slowly Down Stairs.
The appearance of the president and
Mrs. Wikson was heralded by a fanfare
of trumpets, followed by the sinking of
"The Star Spangled Banner." All eyes
were turned toward the main stairway
on the second floor. Preceded by the
military and naval aides the president
and his wife appeared, walking slowly
down the stairs and into the Blue room.
They were followed by the vice president
and Mrs. Marshall and the members of
the cabinet, with their wives, led by
Secretary and Mrs. I-arwing. Mrs. Will
iam G. McAdoo. daiiKhter of the presi
dent, occupied a rlace in this lino aa the

River of Doubt Is
Discovered Again
By Two Engineers
SAN FRANCISCO. Jan. 7.-The River
of Houbt, which wa discovered by Presi
dent Roosevelt, has been rediscovered by
two Americans, Oeoree and Stephen Ges.
ter of Berkeley, Cul., engineers for the
Standard Oil i'omiany, aceorvtlug to their
story told here today upon their return
from South America.
They described it aa getting Its supply
from glaciers and running for 0 miles
from the boundary between Hollvia and
Itraill Into the Madeira liver near lati
tude five. Pictures taken along its course
were lost, they aald.
Th two engineers reached the head
waters of the Kiver of Doubt by crossing
the Andes with pack mule from Lima,
Peru. They had with them, they said,
d.-ila on Colonel Roosevelt' report with
which to check their observations.
They said they penetrated the "fever
country" where Colonel Roosevelt was
atricken. They were attacked by Insect
and they encountered enormous reptile
and strange animals In the dense foreais
through which they hewed their way with
machetes.
They crossed the mountains, tney said,
at an elevation of 17.(0 feet. On th
descent they encountered (laclcis at th
U.OvO-foot level.

PAVE WAV FOR THE IKFANTRY
LONDON, Jan. ". Some idea of
i the determined nature of the Rus-
6ians' blow on the BosFarabian front
is eonveyed by Prtrorad dispatches
J today, which state that the KiiFsians
j for fifty hour concentrated 400
guns on the Austrian poftitior.3 at
O.ernowltz, pn a preparation for in
fantry attacks.
j The Hiiswlan communications do
j not yet claim that C'zernowita has
fallen, but dispatches from German
j sources admit the Teutonic position
there Is critical.
It is not yet clear whether the
HuFsian operation In this theater
herald a b'g Rcneral offensive move
ment of all the Russian armies from
the Baltic to the Roumanian border
or"nierely indicate a diversion of un
parallclled magnitude and fierceness
designed to weaken the pressure of
the central powers !n tho Balkans j
and incidentally on the Italian front
Klahllna is Hitter.
The fighting hns been of the mot bitter
rharscter scolding to both the Austrian
j and Russian reports. Few prisoners nVi?
' teing tnki n and the Ipfantrv engagements
'ate largely in tV.e ratuie of hand-to-hand
encounters.
All of the Rcsion operations thus far
i revealed are be'ng pressed along the rall-
way lines, which simplify the problems
j rf the winter supply of food, ammunition
and fuel.
i The situation alontr the other fronts
, are comparatively o.ulet.
