The score of ut Happened in Nord-
land is one of the notable successes of
that famous American composer, Vic
tor Herbert. whose versatile and
original style of composition has a dis
tinctfve charm. Among the numbers
which have caught and held the popu-
lar ear are THE Woman in the Case,
"Absinthe Frappe,' Slippery James
My Catamaran.'' The Knot of Blue
THE Jack o'Lantern Girl" THE
Matinee Maid "Bandanna Land" "Al
Fresco'' and She's a Very Dear Friend
of Mine"
Glen Marlborough, the author Of the
book, has produced a galaxy of charac-
ter hits and a STORY replete with fun
and frolic.
The piece will be presented by a cast
of about fifty. That the revival may
be thoroughly up to the requirements
of the high standard set by the Aborn
company for the seasons program of
opera at the park several artists will
be brought to the organization who
have been successful in their respective
parts elsewhere. Among the principals
are half a dozen who Won admirers
among the Aborn clientele during the
summer opera last year. Included in
the list of those who will fill leading
roles are the Countess Olga Won HAITI
feldt, who will make her first appear
ance with the Aborn forces.
There will be performances every eve
ming, with matinees Wednesday, Sat-
urday and Sunday. "a Chinese Honey
moon" will be the attraction the week
after next.
Every afternoon and evening a pro-
gram of high class vaudeville is pre-
scented on the open-air stage in the park
free of charge. There is also dancing
in the big ballroom and a hundred other
attractions. Every evening at 1880 the
opera house orchestra gives a free
open-air concert.
AS special features there have been
arranged for Saturday June rs, and for
July 8 and 5 horse racing meets similar
to the one which proved so successful
at the park on Memorial Day.

CHILDREN BARRED
AS JAIL VISITORS
Warden of Hudson County Says
Prison Is No Place for Them
to Go Voluntarily.

JERSEY CITY, June 19.-In future.
on visiting days at the Hudson County
Jail children will not be admitted Tins
is a new rule laid down by Warden
Patrick Sullivan.
1.-THE Jail is a bad place for children
to enter" said Warden Sullivan to-
day. They r usually brought here
by their mothers or fathers when some
member of the family is locked up. 1t
is~bad enough for a child to know his
father or mother is in Jail without see
ing either there. While this is my real
reason for keeping children out of this
institution OF visiting days,yI have an
other reason. Children may have
whooping cough and prisoners here
might catch the same illness"
eRecently a committee of the Hudson
County grand jury, appointed to inves
tigate conditions at the jail, reported
that the institutin is jim a good san
itary condition and gave credit for this
to Warden Sullivan. The report also
showed that a new Jail is needed owing
to crowded conditions existing in the
present institution, built over fifty
five years ago.
