From the opening duet from "Caval-
leria Rusticana" to the closing chorus
from King Dodo" there is not poor

themselves were strengthened and
added to by a most excellent acting
and singing chorus This chorus. OF
about thirty voices, was one or the
features and its rendition of Sulli-
vans Lost Chord" at the close OF
the first act, was most excellent.

pointment or had been unexpectedly
summoned to distant part Of his world

certain that the matter was Of the
greatest consequence so far as the little

eyes fixed straight ahead, he passed u
corner of the reef where the coral was
incrusted with mollusks and sea-urchins
and where pair 'of beautiful squirrel
fish, deeply engrossed in sentimental af-
fairs, turned to look after him won
deringly thru their enormous eyes, Be-
low, in a deep pool, a school of spotted

huge grouper waited expectantly, but
as the parrot fish, warned of his danger,
ton to a pair Of gray snappers great,
quiet, ghostly figures that seemed like
two shadows drifting slowly along, far
down thru the green waters.
/ A few feet further ON and hurrying
parrot-fsh passed a tall sea-fan around
which three dainty butterfly fish, clad
brilliantly in yellow, were peering into
each nook and corner in their search
for small prey, while sober cowfsh,,

on sedately. Suddenly the parrot fish
where the reef was broken by jutting

these resulted in compound fractures,
while the third was slight injury near
the right ear. He thought that the
compound fractures would have
knocked the man unconscious, but did
not think they would have resulted in
instant death.
He also found eight major knife
wounds on the body besides several
minor cuts and scratches. Two of
these knife thrusts were in the left side
of the neck and each severed the
jugular vein and the carotid artery
Another wound was in the right side of
the neck but did not reach any Of the
larger bloodvessels. Then there was a
cut near the right ear, two above the
right eye and another about the neck

IF we can go right ahead with the work, "
said Colonel Symons, land do not meet with any
unexpected delays complete the work in
five years The arrangements for the contracts,
as a rule take some time to perfect, so the time
limit may be extended little. We have spent
up to date very little of our S101,G0o,oVo.
Probably S10OO0O00 would more than cover
the money already actually spent. We have let
a great many contracts which Will count up a
great many more millions. and the outlook for
rapid effective work is very favorable indeed
''One remarkable fact that we have encoun-
tered in the prosecution of this work is that there
has been no attempt made to drag it into poll
tics Not charge has been made against any
one that / am aware of. and the cries OF graft,
influence and deals that are usually heard in
connection with great contract have not yet
been made. ! am beginning to think that per-
haps the politicians not as bad as they are
painted for would suppose that they would
try TO get in a job as big as ours. Inc
whole work has been prosecuted thus Tar with
