New York for what propose to do.
It'll fill a want, know, and that
means success and money. Why don't
we build a theater together? When l
say a theater, l mean a first-class
opera house and not a barn. Well
employ the best architects to build it,
and, of course, I'd leave everything
about it to you. I've got a block in
New York Just about in the right
place, and it won't take long to build.
III give the land and put up the
money for the building, if you'll I'M
dertake the management. You'll put
in any money you like, of course, and
Wen share the profits. Maybe they'll
be quite handsome, for wen lease the
theater to other people outside of the
season. Well have the best talent in
Europe, and pay for it, and the public
will pay us back. Well call it the
Cordova Opera, if you like, and you'll
run it according to your own ideas,
and sing or not, whenever you please.
Are you in earnest?"
Margaret had some difficulty in pro.
nouncing the words clearly. Was

The validity of the recently enacted
city ordinance of St. Louis, requiring
grocery stores to be closed after .
o'clock Sunday morning is to be de-

theft was going all the way round to

Lady Maud had said, there was not
the least doubt in her mind as to his
companion, who could be no one but
Baraka. He had been told that he
was not wanted at Bayreuth, and he
was celebrating the sunset of his
bachelor life in his own way. That
was clear. If he received the tele-
gram that had just been sent to him,
he would get it at Gibraltar, should
he stop there, and as for answering it
before Margaret left Bayreuth, she
was inclined to make such thing i'm
possible by going away the next morn

Her angry reflections and Mrs.
Rushmore's lecture on the Importance
of geography in education were inter-
