Chapman has several times had reason to

Joke by any means to secure the services

son the qualities and excellence of all
others. 1t takes nearly all the money In
sight, and for her manager IL lis but Il
choice of equal y good engagements Per
soual interests too, of the singer seem to
conflict with us, and TO arrive here from
Poland upon date which shall be equal

TO arrange. We hope Tor the best, and for
speedy settlement. So. too, does MIR.
