parties are negotiating for Moose island,
near Seal Cove, fremont, to be used for
building summer resort. As the island
is now, it is barren place, without in
habitants, the only building being fish

the wier privileges. At low tide one can
walk across the bar. The property is

THE vALkYRlEn IN TOLEDO.
Toledo TO be One of Only Two in the
Country to Hear the Savage Com.
pany in Wagner's Great Mas.
ter work, on Wednesday,
April TWenty-Fifth.

The first production of Wagners
'Niegelungen Ring" music drama,
"The Valkyrie," ever shown in Ohio
will be that of Mr.. Henry w. Savage,
which comes to the Valentine thea
tre on Wednesday, April 25th.
Mr.. Savage has the only complete
production of the opera that can be
taken on tour and presented with the
same perfection of stagecraft that
has made The Valkyrie" the most
popular of all the ring dramas in the
east. The performance begins at
1880 in the evening, and the final
curtain on the magic fire scene and
Wotan's Farewell to the beautiful
Brunnhilde will descend shortly af-
ter eleven o'clock.
Mr.. Savage's combined Parsifal
and English grand opera companies
include nearly two hundred people,
with an orchestra of fifty symphony
musicians, and travels in two special
| trains. One of these is necessary to
convey six immense grand opera pro.
dUctions in the companys repertoire,
and the other for the artists, music.
ians and working staff and baggage.
| The organization is now nearing the
GUQ Ol IL lO,UUU Illle CTOSS continent
tour, during which it plays in only
nine places for a single performance,
and in only two cities, .Terre Haute
and Toledo, will it be possible to stop
for single performance of "The
VallSyrie." An advance working staff
OF ten men will arrive to prepare the
stage. Three complete rows of chairs
must be removed and new orches-
ira pit constructed for the musicians
In all respects "The Valkyrie" will
be the most important event of the
year in Toledo, and indications al
ready point to one of the largest audi.
ences that ever assembled in the Val.
entine. Inquiries and mail orders for
seats are already coming in from sur
rounding places and to give every
music lover an equal chance the man
agement has arranged for a subscrip-
tion mail order sale, to begin at once,
in advance of the box Office sale that
opens Monday, April 23d. The cast
for THE Valllyrie' will be composed
of the star vocalists from last years
'Farsifal' organization and the con-
ductor will be Elliott Schenck, the
| Wagnerian authority, formerly with
the Damrosch German opera COM
pany. THE Valkyrie." of course,
will be sung in English. The opera
begins with musical prelude, the
curtain rising without interruption OF
the music. Mr.. Savage insists upon
the same rule that prevailed for
"Parsifal' last year, so that late com.
ers will be put to the inconvenience
of standing until the close of the first
act.
The prices will be the same that
prevail elsewhere, with the lowe.
floor $3.50 and $500; balcony $500
and $1.50; gallery reserved $1.00
Seats will be returned when orders
are accompanied with self addressed
and stamped envelope and remittance
payable to Otto Klives.

Food For Squirrels.

Most people who feed the gray squir-
rels in the big parks fail to realize that
it is no kindness to give these pretty
little animals such soft shell nuts as
almonds, peanuts and chestnuts. HUI
man beings who do not have to actual
ly forage for food naturally enough feel
that it is thoughtfulness itself to save
the squirrels work. The fact is, how
ever, that squirrels teeth grow so
rapidly that, deprived of their normal
use, they might even through their very
uselessness become long enough to put
this charming rodent of the trees In
danger of starvation. Hickory, pecan
and hazel nuts are the proper food to
throw to the squlrrels.-Brooklyn Life.

what constitutes n holiday-or a vaca-
tion. Mrs. Pettis had her own firmly
fixed opinions ON the subject.
81 don't count Thanksgiving or
Christmas or Washington's birthday or
any of those holidays" she said frank
ly to an old friend one day. "What l
count n holiday is when Ezra and Jim
and Bob and Liphlet go off up to the
wood lot with their dinner and know
they won't be back till night.
'I'm not one to deny that men folks
have their good points, but how wom-

the house calling for food by looks
when they aren't by words is beyond

A PuzzLINe FEAT.
The Wonderful Corn Growing Magic
of the Zuni Indians.

The medicine men among the Iuni
Indians perform feat at the annual
corn festival" which surpasses the
famous mango growing trick OF tue
Hlndoo. Many scientists have been
present to witness this strange cere-
mony, but have never been able 10
fathom the mystery of it.
In front of the southern opening of
the medicine lodge a large square OF
rlean yellow sand, carefully smoothed
lnd packed is spread. with ccremo-
NAL arrow figures representing the
Great Spirit, the earth, sum- sky and
rain are drawn There are also the
symbols of the corn and Il bountlful
harvest. The indcntations made by the
arrow are then filled in with pigments,
blue for the sky and clouds, black for
the earth and chrome yellow for the
harvest. The middle of the square Is
left vacant. This picture in sand paint
ing is n most pleasing specimen of bar
baric art.
The hour for the ceremony arrives,
and ut the right moment the medicine
man comes forth from his lodge and
takes II seat in the opening OF the
lodge. facing the sand square. The
warriors and chiefs arrange them
selves around the square according TO
rank. The ceremonial pipe is then filled
and lighted and the medicine man
blows one puff in each direction of the
| compass and two TO the heavens. He
then makes an address. going over the
past history of the tribe and the kind
ness of the Great Spirit and his care.
lie concludes with prayer for the
continuance of this favor.
The great moment has arrived. With
| impressive solemnity the medicine man
thrusts the sacred arrow into the sand
into the hole thus made Carefully
smoothing the sand over it, he resumes
his seat, while the assembled chiefs
smoke their pipes in stolid silence. II
the Great Spirit condescends to answer
the prayer of the medicine man-and
he generally docs-the corn will sprout
and send up shoot. After an interval
| OF fifteen or twenty minutes the Sanu
seems disturbed at the spot where the
grain of corn was planted, and soon
the slender green blades of the sprout
ing corn are seen above the surface
| The plant continues 10 grow rapidly
and naturally during the day, and by
| the next sunrise the silk and tassels
appear. BY noon the stalk and eaI
have reached full maturity and the
ripening begins. Finally the blades
and husks turn yellow and rattle wher
the wind shakes them. All this, we
must bear in mind, has been done II
! thirty-siX hours. On the morning of the
second day the corn growing is com
plete. The medicine man now ad
dresses the watchers who in company
with him have watched the plant grow
for it Is never left alone. With appro
pirate ceremonies he symbolizes th'
harvest by stripping the ear from th'
husks and placing the corn in his bal
for future use. The stalk is pulled III
by the roots and hung over the door o
the lodge.--New York Herald.
