A loan exhibition of paintings, opened
by an English clergyman in one of the
worst parts of London, Whitechapel, has
had 25,OOe visitors, but, to the disapoint-
ment of the projectors, admiration was
almost universally given to the frames,

have anything worse to fret over"
sab, good morning. Going to church

Miss Crescendo is to sing an aria, Miss
Pianissimo will wsrble bit, Bravura, he is

to the numeral Catholics almost exactly
two to one. In Bavaria the position is
more than reversed in favor of the Catho-
lies, who are FIVE to two; in Esas-sLoth-

fallen to him all the letters and papers of
the poet, which have so mysteriously dis
