Him o,Brien,. Epitasl.

gresham.
AZ remember one that adorned the
cemetery at Leadville In the palmy
days of that great mining camp. 1t
seems that In the course of a barroom
broil one Jim 0'Brien, a well known
character. had his existence terminal

erected a wooden slab over his grave
on which he had written In large let

Theatrical Managers.

The Quiet Way In which He nu1lied
the Theatrical Managers.
Here are the methods which Dumas
the elder and Victor Hugo employed
when they had a new play to offer to
the theater. Dumas would write to the
director of the Porte st. Martin:
MY Dear Friend-I shall bring You on
Monday a play in five acts. / shall need
Mile. Georges, Nine. Dorval, Bocage.
Lockroy, Provost and five new scenes.
This extravaganza would alarm The
director, who would put of the produc-
ton of the play till better days.
Then Victor Hugo would appear and
shyly draw a manuscript out of his
pocket. He would agree to everything.
The stock company would play his
piece admirably, since all he wanted
was a good ensemble; no new decora-
tons would be needed nor any change
at all.
So the piece would be read, and as
the roles were distributed Hugo would
say musingly, "Dieu, how fine Freder-
lex would be in that part.' THAT Is
true" Horel would murmur, and a few
days after he would announce that
Frederick was engaged. Hugo would
then demonstrate that this destroyed
the equipose of the cast and Raucourt,
I.aferriere and Mile. Georges would be
engaged Then Hugo would attack the
stage setting. Old scenes, that the pub
lie had tired of, were almost an insult
to these great artists. If Horel showed
reluctance at this. Hugo would threat.
en- to withdraw his piece. And so the
game would go on. till, little by little
Hugo had obtained everything he
wanted. even to changing the paper
landings In the stage boxes.

Love of Country.

For the love of country, as such, il
would be difficult to decide between
the highlander of Scotland and the
mountain born inhabitants of theTyrol.
Both will wander in search of fortune
to the ends of the world and yet look
back to their native mountains as theif

but They Are Mistaken.
A man can very seldom tell what is
passing In q woman's mind. lie talks
with another man, and he a follow
his processes; he gets his point OF
view; he can read between the lines;
he can make a shrewd guess as to
how he came to say that or why he
refrained from saying the other, says
the Waterman.
But a woman's mental processes are
not those of a man. Her mental ma
ehinery is geared differently. You hear
what she tells you. You can make In
ferences from It. They win be wrong
because you do not know how she
eame to say what she did; you do not
have the clew. Try to guess what she
viii say next, and you viii find that
you are all at sea-
The man who says that he under
stands woman Is himself a woman.
No man can understand a woman. He
may love her. There may exist be-
tween his soul and hers that indie
Enable and celestial sympathy which
Is the sweetest thing on earth but no
does not understand her.
Her mental operation, her ways OF
thought, her point of view. will always
be as i~nscrutable to him as the mental
processes of an angel. Whether wom-
en- understand each other Is not quite
certain. A greater part of the delight
that men find In the companionship of
women arises from their inscrutability.
You cannot measure or exhaust them.
Their charming inconseqnence, as
It seems to you. win level cease to
puzzle you, and every fresh converse
ton reveals a novelty Of attitude OF
opinion.

WHAT CRITICS SAY

Speaking of Madame Slapoffski's
first appearance at the Auckland Opera
House on July 18th, 1901, in I'll Tro-
vatore," the Auckland Star critic ian
able hand evidently gives her lavish
praise. Says the critic: Madame
Slapoffski has a soprano voice Of phe-
nomenal range and power, the tones Of
which are rich and full, and Immediate
ly captivate the ear by their sweetness.
She shines. above all, in forituri and
the ornaments of vocalization. Pas
sages the most stupendous. caprices
the most varied, and roulades the most
startling offer no obstacle to the mar
vellous facility Of her throat. The lis
tener percieves no effort in her per-
Torrance; on the contrary. she trans
poses herself into the situation and
breathes the life and spirit of the sub
ject she portrays. Her head notes are
Of splendid tone, and as clear and pen
etrating as the sounds OF a clarion. Full
and rich is her middle voice, and the
notes Of her lower register are mellow
and sweet in timbre. Her perform
ances are musicianly and well thought
out, every note receives its full value
never breathless, never heavy-and
she uses the tempo rubato with splen-
did effect" OF great aria in the
opera in question, the writer says mo
adequate description can be given or
formed Of the manner in which It was
sung by Madame Slapoffski."
The seat sale is now open for the
slapoffski concert at Wall. Nichols Co.
The concert takes place on Saturday
evening at the Opera House.
