unsccountably delayed we shall be
able to get out the REGISTER next

It will doubtless be matter of re-

that the Opera House Is to be no

stockholders Il should be sufficient
defense to state that the Opera

money in it for Ten years have never

But although lola no longer has an

confidence that It will soon have one

favorably impressed with the idea OF
converting the Hall Of that order
