truthful; we say measurably because the
relations OF Burton II. Barnes, typical
New Yorker, toward Enid Anstruther, on
sight Of that reticent and retiring young
English lady, are not usual even 10 the free
and easy Americanism OF his class, and GER
tainly his brusque attentions would not be
tolerated by the lady herself from perfect
stranger. True, in travelling, especially in
the United States, a good many chance ac-
Qualnta1Ces are made, and cautious reserve
is lessened; but il is not so in England nor
with the English on the Continent. Conf

no doubt, at the Polytechnic benefit soon to

on the back by his friends for the pretty and
original way in which he has treated the
different themes, while Robertson's libretto
has many charming poetic conceits. Take
the following duet between the Prince and
Princess, for example.
The Prince sings:

And down the valley. so the legends tell,

And on the rose hid in nights kindly sbroud,
There fell drop OF dew.

For love. the tTuaIt love, lives but an hour,
