Hotel Rother Hahn tRed ROoSter),
Nuremberg, July 29.--During the dinner
intermission of the "Gotterdommerung
last night my little Russian neighbor and
I were discussing our plans for coming
to Nuremberg today and visiting the
scenes associated with the history of the
Melsterslngers. She suggested that after
the opera on her way to her hotel she
would stop at my rooms that we might
look over my book OF German railway
time tables and agree as TO which train
we would take l told her that l did
not own a time table A little look Of
wonder fitted across her face and was
not bit surprised at 1t, for the time
table habit is a disease that seems to
be quite epidemic over here Everybody
packs about as precious possession
a fat little volume with violent-co.ored
thin paper pages all covered with rail-
road schedules; and the travellers put In
about half their time studying those
leaves = lively tint.

a queer character of beauty peculiarly
