The Queen of the Oven

A breakfast biscuit or tea-rolI made with
Dooley's yeast powder is certainly the queen
of the oven-so light, white and delicious.
You lift it tenderly, break it open gently,
spread it daintily with fresh, sweet butter,
waiting to be gracious. After breakfasting
on biscuits made with Dooley yeast powder,
what man would contemplate suicide, or
grumble because his wife asked him for
money?

THE ACADEMY DIRECTORS.

An unpleasant event has Just occurred in connec-
ton with the management of the Academy Of Music,
which will scarcely escape general comment For
nearly twenty years Mr.. d. Kingsland has been the
secretary OF the Board OF Directors and has or
less controlled everything connected with the house
within few days however. he has deemed It neces-
sary to send in formal resignation OF his position
and to say III no uncquivocal terms that he does so
because he finds himself interfcred with in the gem
eral direction OF affairs. reporter Of the HERALD
visiting him in his pariors last evening, asked the
question:
Does this affect Colonel Mapieson or his business
in any way:'
Not at all was the reply. Colonel Mapleson is
not supposed to know anything abont the matter. 1t
a simply question that concerns the old direction
or THE srpr OF ECONOMY.
"And you have no feeling in the natter"
"None whatever. My Identification with the Acad-
been my aim to for 1t the largest successes
to make the closest of contracts and to see that
the place paid its shareholders as fully as
possible II have made mistakes they errors Of
judgment. The Academy is u valuable property. u
requires not little attention to watch IT, We cant
the great building lies idle and Improbable. Who's
to blame? Icertanly don't want the responsibility =
SIDE LIBrRALIry.
A quie. conversation with Mr.. Royal Phelps
veaed the fact that unusual interest has been taken
III performances ut the Academy Of Music
during the past year, and that the moneyod men Of
erprise Whatever Colonel Maplcson desires for the
purpose OF making the opera effective they propose
to slpply. and il he may be bit ex-
trayagant in putting his pieces the stage
the directors content 10 shut their eyes
for the moment and watch the result Thus far they
have been agrecaby disappointed Mr. Phelps dig
tinctly stated to the writer that he has no hostile
personal feeling toward Mr. Kingsland and that
his only object in coming to the front was to give
new phase to the management. He anticipates i'm
portant changes and financial results that will be ap
preciated by the shareholders.
Colonel Maplcson in commenting on the change.
shrugged his shoulders and observed.I can say
but little. Tie fight is among themselves. Kings
land knows more than the management would like
to have made public There many details
which scarcely confdc to you. but if they
were known to the public they would show what a
terrible responsibility rests the shoulders of any
who attempts to opera in New York. say
nothing about my $500 night, nothing about my
artists and the large expenses which i have to
pay, but there many things that enter
into the outlay of an opera company that call for
more than the quick consideration that is given by
