Goldfelds country and perhaps do
some boxing there. However, If
the game has no opening for him
he will go to mining or something.

his back to the audience. The or.

the theater was taxed to the limit
to accommodate all the musicians.
OF the artists accompanying Lee

much better advantage than the
men. Signora Rizzini was especial

other artists, and was repeatedly

Signora Ferrabini has an excel

was shown to advantage in sever

would have been much improved
if she had put more spirit into it.
Indeed all three of the prima

temper and their work suffered in
consequence.
