AustraIia's Miniature Volcanoes.

A curious feature of the breakup
of the protracted and devastating
drought in Australia was the num-
Der of miniature volcanic explosions
in various parts Of the common
wealth. The ground had become so
parched and dry that it cracked, and
the assures thus formed became the
receptacles of heated air. When the
long prayed for downpour of rain
came at last, the water met the hot
air in these assures, and little gey-
sers and volcanoes were manufac-
tured in a moment. Many farmers,
hearing the explosions and seeing
columns of stcamy stuff arising from
the earth, wondered what new
plague had come to afflict them and
whether they were out of the frying
pan into the fire.

Miss Helen Gould tells several
stories of the cleverness of her
brother Georges children.
Miss Gould's latest story is to the
effect that as she was lunching one
afternoon with her small relatives
she made little lecture upon lazl-
ness, ending with the aphorism,
Never put off till tomorrow what
you can do today"
Kingdom, who had been restricted
to one helping of pudding, pondered
this old saw a moment and then
said:

morrow what you can do today?

Table Linen.

Never buy a mixture of cotton
and linen, and beware of damask
that is stiff and cracky, for it has
probably been starched to make it
appear of better quality than it real
ly is. Good linen has an elastic tex
ture. Some of the finer French
damasks appear exquisite, but they
do not pass the soap and water test
creditably. Considering all points,
the Irish linen is far superior to any
other.
Two yards and a half is the best
width for general use, as it covers
well a table four feet wide, and
three yards is convenient length
for the ordinary table. 1t is we'll to
have two cloths of the same piece
in case of considerable extension
of the table on some special occa-
sion, and one very long cloth may be
so rarely used as to become yellow.
The cloths that come woven in one
piece are especially beautiful in de-
sign and texture and cost a mere
trife more than the web goods.
Avoid very large napkins. No one
likes them. Select a medium size
and buy a dozen or a dozen and a
half to 60 with each cloth. Don't
starch your linen when it is new,
but when it begins to get thin and
limp a little thin starch is admissi-

their motive is. would only like to be-
lieve that the writer is also deceived and
believes what he writes.
LAS soon as I heard that Anton van
Rooy had consented to sing in 'Parisfal'
| in New York asked him If it were true:
He answered that he was under contract
| but hoped that 'ParsifaP would not be one
! of them. He said that he could not, how
ever, be found guilty of breach OF con
tract. and was coming to Ba1reuth TO
see me and get my advice.
"On receiving that answer from him. !
replied that he could not and should not
be guilty of any breach of his contract
with Mr.. Conried, but that ne. IKE Fel TX
take part in 'Parsifal.' I was delighted
to have the opportunity to speak with him
and to see II there was really such
thing as honor among artists and that
one did not do everything in the world
for money.
Yesterday he apolegized for not coming
on account of slight heart trouble. !
wrote him thereupon what an excitement
his consent to Mr.. Conried had caused
in the entire civilized world and what
stain would forever remain on his name.
From Fraulein Ternina and Herr
Burgstaller have heard nothing. had
Prof. Kniese write to Burgstaller to ask
If he were really under contract for Parst-
fall I have had no answer to my let
ter.
ITO these two men singers we were
entitled to put the CUES ton whether or not
they intended to sing in 'ParsifaF in New
York. since they were developed here at
Baireuth and began their careers here.
Fraulein Ternina was recognized artist
when she came here, and, although, of
course, we taught her thoroughly the
role of Kundry, she in measure solved
this problem' herself. although in a way
different from that she would have had TO
follow if alone. was not. therefore, en-
powered to ask her any questions.
Frankly. L would never have thought
that an artist who enjoys her reputation
would so far have forgotten herself as to
take part for money in the desecration of
sacred work.

time of the means that Mr.. Conried adopt

fortas. since to break his contract with
| his American manager would involve
a heavy financial loss. 1t was further
said that Nine. Wagner extended this
same indulgence to Mime. Ternina as
well as NM. Motif and Burgstaller.
Anton van Rooy was, according to
the same story. invited to appear at
Baireuth again next season, and. on
the strength of that request, withdrew
from his agreement to take part in the
opposition Wagner performance to be
given in August at the Prince Regent s
theater In Munich.
Anton van Rooy is a Baireuth prod
uct, an intimate friend Of the Wagner
family, and, according to the gossip
that has f1oated about the festival per-
formances for several years, on very
tender terms with one of the unmar-
ried daughters Of the Wagner family.
