entered box to hear the opera, "For-
tune Teller" which is being presented
by the Alice Nelson Opera Company

the stage.
Miss Nelson had observed the gal
liant Southerner in his full uniform OF

roses into the box. The attention o.
the audience was attracted, the lights
went up, and the General was recog-
nized.
Cheer upon cheer rent the air. Cries
OF Speech" and "Our Next President
were heard. General Lee bowed again
and again, but did not otherwise re-
spond.
Tie curtain then rose again, and re.
vealed the entire company of eighty or
ninety people standing masssd on the
Stage. They gave three cheers for
General Lee. and then sang ''The|
Star-bangled Banner" the audience
joining in with wild enthusiasm.
By this time things had risen to q
high pitch Of excitement, The pat
riotic hymn had no sooner ended than
men and women left their seats and
crowded around the box. General
Lee bent over the bslustrade OF the
box and shook hands with as many az I
he could reach.
Between the second and third acts
the scene was repeated, and this time
the band played "Dixie," the people in
The theatre joining in the song.
Some lime elapsed before the excite.
ment subsidized, and the performance
could be resumed. /
