the next morning, which was unusual
for Yorker, and when the rest of us

a Union Jack beside it "to keep it

got no breakfast until he had fished
out a diminutive bit of canvas and

PARIS, Aug. 2O.-Americans who
have visited Paris will recall an ex-
ceedingly expert woman rider at the
Nouveau Cirque, who astonished the
public every evening by her clever rid
ing and was billed as the Baroness de
Rhoden.
She was a real Baroness. She was
born in Breslau. the daughter Of we'll
tO-do German stock broker, and when
she was about II her father committed
suicide because he failed in business.
She was left penniless and had only one
resource. She was a good rider and
found an engagement at Riga. But the
persons who engaged her srefused to
pay her anything, saying she was serv-
Ing her apprenticeship. A reputable
newspaper which took up her cause got
her position in st. Petersburg. There
her success began.
In the height OF it Baron Oscar
Vladimir Won Wradren, Of a noble fam
lily Of EOthoma, fell in love with her.
Being impetuous the BarOn's wooinG
was short and they were married at
once. His fortunes were ruined and al

duels over what he deemed affronts to

achieved by another rider. She drew
her horse upon his hind feet and threw
herself back. lying down until her head
touched the Group.
The Baron died and me Baroness
continued her career, resting from time
to time.

Then the Baroness knew that she

thrown against a post so heavily that
she sustained serious injury. She dis

long before the reason was known. Now
she has taken up another career. being
a woman Of remarkable energy and
force OF character.
She went to a teacher OF singing. Mr..

in so sad plight and asked her II she
could sing. She said she could and

Those who remember the Eopta

Mr.. KOpta is contemplating another
series for this season. The Kopta con-
certs were among the most notable in
local chamber music annals. AS an
ensemble leader Mr.. KOpta himself is
pre- eminently gifted. and his associates
were all admirably chosen. The dis
cOvery OF Mrs. Oscar Mansfeldt, who
takes charge Of the piano end Of things,
as an ensemble player Of exceptional
capacity, was one OF the pleasantest
features of the last season. The other
strings, besides the brilliant Kcpta
ones. were all equally characteristic.
Character. indeed, tone. individuality,
were evident in unusual proportion in
the work of the quartet, in addition to
large promise of ensemble sympathies
of the strongest. The programmes pur-
posed are of the same interesting ma
ture as those Of last season. and con-
tain several novelties. Here they are:

expense, it is conceded, will be made

RED MAIDEN SAD OF HEART.
indian Lover Fails to Come to Garry
Her to His Tepee.

The snow-white Indian camp OF two
women and a man has broken after a
weeks stay on the east bank of the
Wolf north of Miller, and the campers
have returned to Crow Creek. This
incident is believed to have a roman
tic meaning, but the refusal OF the
red people to talk makes it hard to
decipher the facts,
1t is known that the Sissetons, in
the springtime of former years have
come halfway to meet. WOO and car
ry away in marriage from this spot
the fair Crow Creek maidens.
The non-arrival this time OF the SIS
seton loyemakers caused anxiety and
heart-burnings in the little, up-to-date
tepee, with a new stove in
the center. Just at the setting OF sun
each day one of these Crow Creek
maidens would stand on a knoll near
her tent, longingly looking toward
the north; but the Sisseton braye
failed to come, no doubt the object OF
her daily waiting, SO the trio returned
to their home on the river.
