HIGH DRESSES AT OPERA
PROVOKE HOT DISCUSSION

SPECIAL BY CABLE To THE NEW YORK
HERALD AND THE ST. LOUIS REPUBLIC.
London. May 23.-(Copyright, 1s03.)-High
dresses at the opera, which, it is said, the
Queen is anxious to introduce. are causing
no end Of heated talk.
Habitues Of the opera declare that II such
custom should become general there will
be an end to any social successes at the
opera and 1t will lapse into the dull. middle
class affair 1t was before the present syndi-
cate, with Lord and Lady de Gray and
Harry Higgins, took the matter up and
made 1t what 1t is now. 1.
The smart world has already looked upon
the opera as the one place where display
of toilets and jewels is not only expected,
but necessary. If ordinary high black
dresses come In 1t will be impossible
to wear tiaras or much jewelry. The whole
effect would be dowdy in the extreme.
Lady Normanton and Lady Huntington
were both wearing high dresses at the opera
last week, but this may have been because
they were attending the ring performances
and did not care to put on low dresses for
the afternoon and evening.
