Caruso, the tenor who was found
guilty of annoying women in the Cen
trail park monkey house, appeared on
the Metropolitan opera house stage
last night as Rodelfo in La Boheme."
1t was the tenor's first appearance be
fore an audience since his arrest and
If his popularity as a singer has been
impaired by the occurrence Of the last
two weeks it was not apparent last
night
There were a few Kisses when he
first appeared on the stage, but they
were completely drowned out in the
storm of applause. The tenor was
called before the curtain seven times
at the close of the first act. New
York's society. who occupied the
stockholders boxes. joined heartily in
the applause. At other times in the
course OF the opera the big audience
showed plainly enough that it was
pleased with CarusO's singing, what
ever its attitude might be toward him
personally. At the rising of the cur
tain Caruso wept, while the big oudi-
torium rung with "Viva!" from the
lips of his countrymen and the APP
plause of many Americans.
1t was a typical opening week audi
ence which crowded the opera house,
except that IN the galleries there were
more Italians than ordinarily For sew
eral days CarusO's friends and others
who sympathize with him had been
swapping up the seats in the gallery
and they went to the opera bent upon
giving him great welcome and oppos-
ing any efforts that might be made to
humiliate him professionally. While
these persons contributed their full
share to the general greeting, the ia
vor shown by the American element in
the house was unmistakable.

the office of Governor Hoch his "citi-

him when he left prison, on the back

Caruso sang 'Rodolfo" to Nine. Sem
brich's Mimi"
There rad been much speculation as
to how the singer would be received,
and some little fear of a hostile demon
stratioD- To quell the latter the house
had been picketed with police, whose
interference however, was not requir-
At the moment when the curtain fell
apart upon the opening scene of La
Boheme' the great audience sat as
entries and the scurrying Of ushers
would permit Caruso in La Boheme"
had not the chance of that entrance of
eclat common to the heroes of most op-
eras in which the stars entrance nat
urally draws more or less of the audi
ence's enthusiasm. He was already
there the poor poet, 'Rodolfo," of the
play gazing from a latticed window of
q Latin quarter tenement over the
snOW-clad roofs of Paris. But no SOON
er had the parting of the swaying cur
tains revealed this scene than a short
Volley of hand clapping intermingled
with loud cheers broke from every part
of the house with the exception of the
lower tier of boxes very few of which
at that moment were occupied.
The applause that greeted Caruso at
the beginning and again at the end of
the first act was repeated with undimin-
lShed energy after the second and third
acts, when he and the other members
OF the company were recalled half a
dizen times. Both Caruso and Nine.
Sembrich were overwhelmed with flow
ers.
At the conclusion Of the opera, the
Italian contingent present, which was
especially numerous and vociferous in
the standing room around the outer
edges of the lower floor, started still
another demonstration, but the great
bulk of the retiring audience took no
part in this and Caruso made only one
response to the plaudits.
Throughout the evening there was no
appreciable disproval of Caruso mani
occupants of the boxes as a rule had
the least part in the demonstration.

time, and then become sluggish lose
her appetite, and get so nervous she
could not attend to her school work
''On such occasions the family doctor
would call and by giving her medicine
would fix her up for a while only to
have the old trouble come back in three
or four weeks
She would walk in her sleep some
times when her nerves were greatly
disturbed by Indigestion.
For breakfast we usually had some
kind OF cereal and for a change got
new food. my daughter became so very
fond of it she often made her breakfast
on Grape Nuts. exclusive of anything
else-soTnetiTnes also for lunch
I'VE soon noticed a marked change

GRAY MAY LEAVE FRISCO.
Runored He VIII Be President OF
Colorado Southern.

ASu~AAOLCll 1AC " HI DC L1C5ALCuL u
Colorado Southern.
Monet, No, Nov 29.-It is rumored
in railroad circles that Carl Gray, sec
ond vice-president of the Frisco, and
formerly general manager, will leave the
Frisco January L, to become president
of the Colorado Southern railway There
is nothing official in the statement, the
report having gained circulation since
Mr.. Gray's retirement from the office Of
general manager. and may or may not
be true.
Rumors about Mr.. Gray are circulat-
ing all over the system The fact that
he has given up the details CT the OPP
Grating department to Mr.. Nixon and
the further fact that Presiden- David
son has severed all connection with the
Chicago and Eastern Illinois in order
to give his whole time to thu Frisco
causes the belief to prevail that there
will be a change of some kind. Mr..
Yoalxun has been trying to ger control
of the Colorado Southern for over
year and when he finally does it is more
than likely that Mr.. Gray will be put in
charge as Mr.. Yoakum has always had
the highest confidence in Mr.. GTay's
railway ability.
