After her retirement from her successful appearance in opera in Vienna, St.

Petersburg and the United States, Clara Louise Kellogg confined herself to concert engagements. Born near Charleston, South Carolina, she became one of the popular concert singers of her time. She jiii'as educated in York City, completing her train- under Arditi in London, singing his fmnous "Waltz Song" for the first time. Her debut was made as Gilda in "Rigoletto" in New York City in the closing year of the Civil War, but her greatest success was as Marguerite in Gounod's "Faust," when it was presented for the flr.st time in the United States. Clara Louise Kellogg, like other American prima donnas, never grew weary of singing the old familiar songs and ballads' for encores, and when she sang Gounod's "When to Thy Vision," she transported her hearer.s to the master's music rendered in telling the story of "two fond flow'rets on one stem united."

El I'aso, Aug. revolt against the Carranza government in Sonora state is the first move in what observers here believe to be a plan for a counter revolution against the Constitutionalists.

It was asserted today by secret agents that an uprising had been planned, not only in Sonora, butjn Chihuahua, Sinaloa and Durango. These states comprise a solid block in northwestern Mexico. A commission representing Joso Maria Maytorena, the insurgent governor of Sonora, who arrested Carranza's military commander General Aivaredo, today passed through El Paso on their way to Sonora after a conference with General Villa. An official but private report said that Villa had recruited his army in Chihuahua state alone to a total of 40,000 men, ail armed, equipped and tioned to take the field at any time. In addition to the Sonora trouble it was learned that Pastor Rouix, the governor of Durango, had been ousted by the Arrieta brothers, military leaders of that state, and at present was a refugee under Villa's protection at Torreon.

The visit today of General Villa to Xieves, Durango, was considered significant, in view of the political conditions in Durango, which adjoins Chihuahua on the south. PLEASAXT VALLEY. (Berkihiser).
