Pieces.


Pieces.
1t is not generally known that 5. NJ
Gardenhire, clerk Of the district court,
besides being a ready and graceful
writer. has written at least four plays
that are or will be on the American
stage. Probably the most notable Of
these il the opera sThe Knfcker book ers''
which he copyrig hted some two years
ago The music for this opera has been
written BY Reginald Dekoven and the
libretto BY Henry b Smith. This
opera was submitted to the Boston Ideals
some time ago and is now being re-
hearsed. The opera is said TO be one Of
real merit.
Mr.. Gardenhire's "A Social Dilemma"
il one Of his best pieces. Tt IS a comedy
Of humorous plot and interesting dia-
Iogue. 1t il now in the hands Of Daniel
Fr0hnan, or New York. Another play,

boards il New York this winter.
The best known Of Dir. Gardenhire's
productions. but one which lie considers

season since 1890 1t was written by
Mr.. Gardenhire and AIr. Du Mars, the

his interest in the drama outright At
price that barely repaid the work spent
on it. Du Mars. however, held on to his
interest III it and drew q handsome roy

Affection between racehorses and

while to put on record two instances
of it. Lord Godolphin owned a fam

fond that it was always to be found
near it. or nesting on its back When
the horse died in 1883. aged 20 years,
the cat refused all food, pinned away,
and died Of grief In the other case
the racehorse showed more active
fondness, for it would pick up the
cat with its mouth without hurting
it, and then place it on its back
