AdAstrer's Great Enthuniasm.

Ernest Van Dyck. the distinguished op-
cratic tenor. has been writing few rem
jniscences Of his career upon the stage.
One OF the most interesting Is his recital
In the Womnn's Home Companion OF the
manner In which wagners ''rannhauser''
was first produced In Parts. Wagner
was forbidden TO Paris" he says. What
ever he was or might have been he was
not to enter upon French kingdom. come
what might. Now. Lafnoureux happened
to know what Wagner was. and he re-
solved that 40 far as In him lay the
French capital should share In that knowi-
edge It was his purpose to produce To-
hengrin'--the first performance at Paris
has now stepped into history--and he
chose ne to sing the title role. accepted
the situation. and the hrst performance
took place at Eden thcater. IN Paris. In
1857. It win be In cverybody's recollection
that certain violent political demonstra-
lions attended the Introduction OF Wag-
ner's work In the French capital. Lam
ourcux was director Of both the theater
and orchestra. The production was most
enthusiastically received by the audience.
but outside the theater the excitement OF
the mob was so intense and continued so
pcrslstentiy next day that NJ. Lamoureux
decided to discontinue the performance.
Thus my first operatic engagement came
to an abrupt termination. II may well
be supposed that this at first disconnected
me considerably. for indeed had no idea
where should get other work Yet my
one appearance had served my purpose
unawares Frau Wagner naturally took
vast interest In tho first production OF
'Lohenerin' In France. to witness which
shc had dispatched her business manager.
Herr Gross. and Hermann Levi. the well
known conductor. Both ,of these gentle
men reported TO her on the matter. and
both spoke favorably 90 her OF my work.
The result was that I was engaged to
sing Parsifal at Bayreuth the following
year. The critics. at all events. allowed
that It was u great success Since then

Prosperity in Hawaii.

honolulu, Hawaiian Islands, is on the
verge of Il tremendous boom. The fact
is conceded by even the most conscrva-
tive iinancicrS and business men in the
islands. The passage Of the Hawaiian
government bill has restored absolute
confidence in the future of the islands
Col. McFarlanc, aud other .lvnolnln
business men who are now in the United
States to place Investments of Eastern
capital, &c"t adviccS by the last steamer
(says a special from IIonolulu) that mil
lions of dollars Of American money only
awaited stable government.
Prcsidcn. McKiney's approval of the
bill lately passed by the Council Of State
makes available S2,OOO,0OO, which will
largely go into circulation at once.
Within fortytivc days the United States
will call in Si,O00,00O in Hawaiian bonds
and pay for them. Three tourthS of the
bonds arc held by Ilawaiians and at
least $4,000, 900 will be paid right here in
Honolulu. Added to all this is hundreds
of thousands OF dollars in dividends that
are to be paid by the big plantations be-
ginning i'll June. At least ST. OOO, 600 will
be added to the Hawaiian circulation in
the next few months.

a Solid Fact.

a Baltimore cotton broker is quoted
by the Baltimore sun as follows: "rhiS
has been the best year the Baltimore dry
goods men have had since the war. The
wholesale houses there have made thou
sands Of dollars in the cotton boom and
they are still making it. Nothing like
this situation has ever been seen in the
business. The mills are all behind in
their orders; cotton is selling away ont
OF sight; China, the Philippines and the
markets in the far East aic taking more
and more of our goods right along: the
stocks Of the merchants are exhausted
the mills cannot supply the demand and
there you are. That is what is causing
the big boom in the cotton mills in The
South" Not only has this been "thc
best year" for Baltimore, but il has also
been the "bcst year" for the whole
South. All the predictions of the calamity
howlcrs have como to naught and pros
pcrity has blessed the land II is fortu-
nate for those who would wipe out the
conditions responsible for that prosperity
have not the power to do so. Their
theories cannot be put into practice.
That is Il solid, substantial fact, and
there's lot Of comfort in the contcmpla-

"Fivc thousand dollars year is not
the whole income of United States
Scnator-not by a long shot," says the
New York Press. "Thcrc arc countless
little items thrown in by mutual consent
which make the statcsman's life a jot and
title of perennial satisfaction. The
marble Senatorial bath is worth $3.50 Il
year. Nearly every Senator travels on a
railroad pass, yet :hc Cove; nmcnJ pays
him mileage ut the rate of twenty cents
mile for making the necessary journcy
to and from the Capital. In the case Of
tho far Western Senator this sum
amounts to $1,000. Mileage is fossil
arrangement, introduced long before
railroad passes were known; when, in
fact, trip to Washington involved
many weeks and a heavy expense. It is
manifcstly unfair that Mr.. Perkins, of
California, should receive an honorarium
of 1920, while Mr.. McComas, Of Mary
land gets only So.
