ITALY'S TWO CAMPS.

Bitter Quarrel Over a BIT of wasnerian
Music.
Italy since the first of the year, &C
cording to the Figaro, has been divided
into two camps, which have been quar-
reling and recrim mating and almost
fighting. The cause of the dispute is
the question whether the finale of the
second act of Die Meistersinger" is or
is not fugue. Ricordi, the Italian
publisher Of Wagner's works, published
an article in his musical journal
strongly denourcing certain Italian
critics for considering the passage in
question fugue. They answered, cit
ing to uphold their opinion a number
of French and German critics. Ricord:
brought up against them one Russian
and one Spanish critic, who could see
no fugpe in the finale. A remarkable
solution for the difficulty was sought
They telegraphed to Siegfried Wagner
for his opinion. The latter, also by tel
egraphed, replied, 1T is a fugue." Sig
Riccordi is considered beaten and peace
is returning.

The pleasant method and beneficial
effects of the well known remedy,
SYRUP OF FIGS, manufactured by the
CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP Co., illustrate
the value of obtaining the liquid laxa-
tive principles of plants known to be
incidentally laxative and presenting
them in the form most refreshing to the
taste and acceptable to the system. 1t
is the one perfect strengthening laxa-
tive, cleansing the system effectually,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
gently yet promptly and enabling one
to overcome habitual constipation per-
manently. Its perfect freedom from
every Objectionable quality and sub
stance, and it's acting on the kidneys,
liver and bowels, without weakening
or irritating them, make it the ideal
laxative.
In the process of manufacturing figs
are used, as they are pleasant to the
taste, but the medicinal qualities of the
remedy are obtained from SIENNA and
other aromatic plants, by a method
known to the CALIFORNIA FIG SYRUP
Co. only. In order to get its beneficial
