tenor singer in the McCaul Opera company as
bail but Lieut.. Walsh wouldn't accept this as
collateral and he had to buy his liberty with
good, hard cash. Of course when he was

singer his effects. Quite recently Manager Scott
has introduced the custom of small boys
passing ice water through the audience be-
tween acts. Each boy carries tray on
which are half 9 dozen glasses filled with
water. The tenor singer evidently noticed
this and was disguised, for the letter that was
found was addressed to his chum in New
York, and in it was q paragraph that read as
follows:
This is really the bloodiest country ever
saw. The people dress like museum freaks.

City Comptroller Roche received yesterday
from the manager of the Grand Opera
house a letter and two seats for the per-
Torrance of 1.-THE Little Tycoon tonight.
The letter stated that as he, the comptroller,
had long been known as THE Tycoon" of the
city, it would be nothing more than respect
full for the head of the family to visit the
theater and see 1.-The Little Tycoon
The comptroller was grave and dgni1ed
yesterday afternoon when he exhibited the
letter to GLOBE reporter. He explained
that as he was accused of being member of
the ROYAL family he ought to be treated in O
roj al style. While he was too polite to return
the tickets, yet to keep up his dignity as
'"Phe Tycoon" and head of the royal family,
nothing less than a box would satisfy him,
and in fact nothing but box should have
been offered to his royal highness
