of Demidoff and his accomplices for
Witchcraft. Demidoff is convicted, and,
as the court retires to consider the
punishment, his daughter returns and
Demidoff confesses to the grand duke
the deception practiced on them all by
Gcgol. The grand duke then promises
to secure a cancellation of Boris pun
ishment from the czar, and all ends
well.
From this it will be seen that the
piece possesses more plot than the av-
elage comic opera of the present day.
Katrinka is a young girl who disguises
herself as a boy to follow Demidoff' s
caravan, being fascinated by his magic
art, and Jelikoff, a tragedian (Alfred
klein), IS employed by the magician
to impersonate a lady in waiting to
Anna, in order to mislead Prince Boris.

The boy wore knee trousers and blue

so carefully tried the different doors.
Half an hour later one of Mrs. Fr1end
boarders found young Samec standing
on the front porch of the boarding
house. AS the door opened the boy

aside to let her pass.
But, after the most hazardous part
of his work was done, the boy made
mistake. He stopped in a vacant lot
to examine the contents of the purse.
Mrs Friend saw the act and called
the attention of the other women to
the boy, when he was recognized as

the boy several blocks, but lost track

Detectives Murnane and Sweeney soon
had young Samec at the central sta

The boy admitted the theft Of the

the ground that the authorities of that

were written thereon by the voters. and
