On his first American tour MaplesOn had
with him Nine Gerster and Minnie Hauk

at Chicago between Minnie Hauk and
Marie RnZe. Right and left of the pro-
scenum were two dresSing-ToOms precisely

Minnie Hauk and Marie ROLe did. They
both coveted the prima dOnna's dressing

The warfare began in the morning,

The Cocker Spaniel as a Field Dog-A
Salt Lake Club.
Although pointers and settlers are in good
demand. it appears very much like a run
will soon be had on cocker spanielS
For upland shooting especially in many
parts Of this State, where the grounds
hunted over are rough and thickly settled
with heavy undersr0 Wths, the cocker
spaniel, according 10 the statements of
many OF the leading spOrtsmen, can do
much better and more satisfactory work
than the best-trainPd pointer or setter
VI course the little yelpers do not range
or cut such dashing figure as the pointer
but then when it comes to practical work
and close attention TO business the cocker
is as good a little dog for qual-shO0ting,
when properly trained, as any of the cracks
that are at the present time so highly priced
for field duty.

WHAT Ely LOVER SAID.

By the merest chance, in the twilight gloom
In the orchard path he met me
In the tall wet grass, " It'll it's faint perfume,
And L tried to pass but he made no room;
Oh, tried, but he would not let me.
SO ] stood and Uu9hed till the grass grew red,
With my face bent down above *.
While he took my hand, as be whispering said
low the clover lifted its sweet PINK head,
To listen TO all that my lover said
on, the clover IN DOoml love it,
In the high wet grass went the path to hide,
And the low wet leaves hung over,
But could not pass on either side,
For found myself, when vanity tried,
In the arms Of my steadiast lover.
And he held me there and he raised my head,
While he closed the path before me;
And he looked down into my eyes and said
How the leaves bent down from the bcughs Ger
head
To listen TO what my lover said
Oh the leaves hanging lowly Ger met
1 am sure that he knew when he held me fast
That must be all unwilling;
For tried TO 60, and would have passed,
AS the night come with its dfws at last
And the sky with its stars filing
But he claSped me close when would have fed,
And he made me hear his story.
And his soul came out from his lips and said
How the stars crept out when the white moon lied
To listen to all that my lover said
On. the moon and the stars in glory
And am sure that the wind, precious rover,
VIII carry his secret so safely and well
That no beng shall ever discover
One word OF the many that rapidly fell
From the eager lips OF my lover.
And the moon aud the stars that looked over
Shall never reveal what fairyitke spell
They wove round about us that night in the dell,
In the path through the dew-iaden clover:
or the whispers that made my heart TO swell

abandoned. Had the effort to dress the
tenor succeeded, MaplesOn thinks he would

rational by a night Of success and public
enthusiasm.

that he and his family would be stary-

upon his feelings by telling him how
magnifcentIy he had been singing.
MOngini confessed he would like to 20 on
with the opera and being provided with an
impTOvised costume lie was as good as his
wish. Next day the tailor duly appeared
for punishment and received an awful
lecture on the Nervousness and unpaTdOn-
able nature Of his Otfense. He was dis
missed in mock earnest and told that he and
his wife and four children would starve.
By the way, he had no children, but bad
previously been instructed that he had.
The tenor was Modified at the prospect of
so much misery, and pleaded for the re-
instatement Of the tailor. promising that if

What is called genius is merely phase of

akin to genius in opera singers, except that
In vocal music they are supreme. and as
high as the sky above the earth where other
singers stand. This, however, they owe to
gifts and training and not to intellectual

and by training expand its qualities and
subordinate its executive powers 10 the will
and the capriceS OF taste.
Intellectual endowment, In fact, plays but
a small part in the success OF tenor or a
Drlma donna. Numbers of our greatest
singers, whom listeners allude to as divine,
are singularly deficient in mental capacities.
They know language or two and they
sing, and that is all. They find themselves
adored for the gifts they have, and that is
sufficient. A prima donna who draws 5000
nightfOr warbling, and IS loaded down with
flowers when encored, is not apt to quarrel
with her equipment for the voyage Of life,
