the Roman public is said to have lost

He soon found that Italy possesses no

Goldoni make up almost the entire avail

lect. So Novelli had to draw more on the
French and other modern repertoires than
he at first intended to. He also admitted
parts of the season.
Like many other noted actors, Novelli
is a Jew. His versatility is remarkable

Probable Expenses OF "A visit to the
pnn-American.


Naturally most people who contem-
plate visiting the Pan-American Expo
sition desire To know what IL will cost.
II am going to assume that every one
can learn the cost of round trip

| would advise every one to prepare
for at least two weeks trip. Those
who come on short limit tickets gen.
orally regret that they cannot stay
longer to enjoy more fully this rare
opportunity for pleasure and stddy, for
am safe in saying that never before
has there been such an opportunity for
the pleasure seeker or such a magnifi-
cent school of progress for those who
wish TO study what the world is doing
i'm all lines of effort. No one who can
possibly raise the money to visit the
Exposition should for a moment think
of denying himself this signal ad-
vantage.
The people of Buffalo have made
ample preparation for the entertain
ment OF all who come to the EXPOSE
ton. In addition to the large number
of hotels, where the rates are mod
crate, the private houses have been
very generally thrown open for the
entertainment of guests. Visitors may
find comfortable accommodations as
low as 30 cents night for lodging,
while better accommodations close to
the Exposition can be secured for 10
cents and 81 per night. Breakfasts
are served by many Of the householders
at - cents to 80 cents, and there is an
abundance OF good restaurants where
meals can be had ut very moderate
figures. The cost of living in Buffalo
should not exceed 50 or $3.50 per day
for those who want the best. The ad-
mission to the Exposition is 30 cents.
This includes admission to all the
exhibit buildings and to all parts of
the grounds, including the Stadium,
where the athletic games and races.
parades of live stock and vehicles take
place. The Midway also Is free, ex-
ccpt where one chooses TO enter the
