half a century earlier all went we'll
till the murder scene came on, when q
very dignified old gentleman in the

satisfaction and at length called out
angrily:

The manager himself heard this plain
spoken comment. and, being naturally
disturbed by so sweeping condemna'
don, he sought out the critic and po'
litely begged to know what fault he
had to find with it.

man, with an air Of authority. 1.-THE
