Next Time There was Going to Be
Trouble.
At Park Place and Broadway, New
York, as a mail wagon turned into the
latter thoroughfare to go up town, the
horses knocked down a pedestrian who
was hurrying into City Hall park, says
the Detroit Free Press. For a wonder
the driver pulled up, and though the
man was at the horses feet he escaped
the wheels. He came crawling out, COW
cred with dirt and more or less hurt,
and the driver looked at him and coldly
inquired:
DO you know what you have been
doing, sir?"
Il do replied the man as he brushed
away at the dirt, "but l couldn't help it.
I'm not the man to interfere with the
United States mails"

and unique points, The music is de-
lightful-just enough Spanish coloring
to lend charm and dash to it and yet
maintain the genuine Herbert ring.
The orchestration, solos, and concerted
numbers, from overture to finale are
all excellent. Every now and then the
orchestra breaks forth in such droll
little suggestive snatches, it is quite
laughable without the aid of the IL
bretto. In fact it is all so unsteady
satisfying it is refreshing. Miss Hilda
Clark, who has been identified with
the company as prima donna for about
a year, still makes most beautiful
photographs and has gained much in
acting and stage presence. She was
very young when she made the step

success. When touring with the Carl
Rosa Opera company, Mile. Carritte
was very successful as Mignon and
Carmen, the latter role creating re-
markable enthusiasm wherever she
sang it. Mile. Carritte possesses a
rich beauty Of the oriental type, the
irresistible charm of her French en-
c%estors, and is a most brilliant guest
or hostess. Her charming artistic
apartments in New York are filled with

Carritte has become an immense IA
vorite in society, where she is often
heard, and some day she will undoubr-
edly again reign in opera comique.
A most clever, attractive and re-
markable little artistic has lately been
gaining much attention in musical cir
cles in New York. Miss Nina Ber-
TIM HUMPHREYS is clever, because she
has a repertory of twenty-four grand
operas, the principal %oratorios, and in
Vulnerable songs; is a remarkably
good actress, and the mistress of tour
languages. Added to this. Miss Hum
phries has a voice of great beauty,
volume, and ~1exibility, which she uses
with the utmost intelligence. She is
attractive because of her refined, in
teresting features and pretty, graceful
carriage; and remarkable because she
has accomplished such a vast amount
of work in her short life. Her work
in this country has been principally
in opera, and with the Heinrich Opera
company Miss Humphries became we'll
known and greatly admired through
out the country. She has also sung
with the orchestras Of Theodore Thorn

with the Carl Rosa Grand Opera COM

innumerable criticisms from various
