Dearest Parents: | fear l neglected
writing last week and l am so sorry, the
days are 30 full, and soon week Is
past, and though of you every day,
but sometimes forget If | have written,
but you will forgive me, I'm sure out
of your own goodness.
Can you manage to keep warm, or do
you need extra fires? l presume you
are so tired Of the oppressive heat, you
do not even forget it in your dreams.
We are having very warm weather
here, but not awful like New York.
Warren writes that Chicago is almost

Last night, William Shakespeare, our
grand old master musician, invited our
party and few musical people, includ-
ing David Bispham, to his lovely home,
"a mansion, indeed. To say we
were royalty entertained does not
express our appreciation of the hospi-
tally we received. We had about ff-
teen courses Grounds" mams.-and if
| had sampled all the wines, cham
payne, Italy drinks, and the French
drinks, and all the rest of the
drinks, fear / should not be writing
to you today, but fortunately we had
plenty of ice drinks and go none of us
suffered from the lack of our usual
leverage. Mr.. Shakespeare is a charm
ing man-easy in manner, intelligent,
and capital story teller; while his wife
is unusually clever and cultured, and
his son, with whom had the honor of
going down to dinner and Miss Mamie

most enviable for their perfect man
ners and good brains. Every member
of the family being a fine musician,
you can imagine our delightful evening.
never knew two people SO much
alike-yet SO much unlike, as William
Shakespeare and Frank Martindale
How | wished that Mr.. Martindsle
could have been present last evening,
really we would have had two wonder
full geniuses, and while Mr.. Shakes
peare has wonderful method, and in
consequence uses his voice perfectly,
Mr. Martindale has far more wonder
full voice, and possesses divine inspira-
ton, which makes his singing touch the
soul of the hearer and melt them. If
the method could have been gained by
MIR. Mar'indale, as Mr.. Shakespeare has
it, Frank Martindale would have no
equal on the planet earth. AS it is,
only one tenor surpasses him, and that
is Jean De Riska. David Bispham

fatigue and WEAKNESS that was unavoidable at
the Worlds Fair
The exhibits will be varied Interesting and
instructive, and the improvement In their selec-
ton and the manner In which they are display
cd, due to the experience gained by exhibitors
at the recent great Expositions, will be very
noticeable. In the variety, quality, Eoyelty and
number of Its entertainment features, the Buff
falo Exposition will surpass all others.
There are different rates for tickets with DIFF
ferent limits, and II you expect to visit Buffalo,
and will send your address to the under signed.
