The Independence amateurs are at work
upon, and will produce shortly, the "Chimes
of Normandy" with Miss Idalette Farrar In
the leading role. Miss Farrar, who will be
remembered by the great hit she made here
in the Doctor Of Alcantars,'' has just re-
turned from two years study In the east. We
trust our Independence friends will visit as
with their opera. They won golden
opinions on their former trip, and we assure
them a hearty welcome with the beautiful
"Chimes," which has never been given here.
Our old Cabbage Neck friend writes, this
~week:-"Good prospect for a heavy ap-
