We have many inquiries relative TO the
prcmiums to be drawn st The Opera House
on the 2lat inst.-what they are snd what
they are worth-snd we will answer them
oil 1t once BY stating that, in addition to
the Opera House property, there are three
hundred paintings, which would alone con

Sevea Of these paintings are hrgs exhlbition

the Ye Semitic Valley, has made it familiar
