New York, Nov. 24.-Beulah Binford,
whose association with Henry Clay Beat
tie, jr, was suggested after his arrest as
a possible motive for the murder of his
wife, spent the fatal day tossing feverish-
" upon a sick bed. The young woman
suffered from an attack of appendicitis
some time ago. and on the return Of the
symptoms recently was advised to have
the appendix removed as a precaution
against serious developments.
The girl was removed from the home
Of friends, with whom she has been liv-
ing, to a private hospital in the Bronx.
The operation was to have been per-
formed to-day, but on Wednesday the
young woman said to the attending sur

II can't be operated upon on Friday.
Henry Clay is going to die on that day,
and I know that I should die, too, II 1

The date for the operation was then
advanced to Monday next.
The girl sent out for newspapers to-
day and manifested an eager interest in
the news of Beattie's execution. Despite

But Puccini. to the. great body of his
admirers must always be the Puecini of
La BoheIne'' and Madam Butterfly
That is why THE Girl of the Golden
West" was more or less of a disappoint-
ment when produced at the Metropolitan
in New York last year. 1t was not a
great success with the public, for the
reason that the luscious melody of the
earlier Puccini works was sadly missed;
it did not please the musical illuminate.
for the reason that ii was not a true
or sincere Interpretation of the golden
West" in the days of '49. 1t can be said
for PEccini that he-keenly recognized the
fact that the saccharine sentimentaltties
of Madam Butterfly had no place in
the new atmosphere; he bravely aban-
doned what might have been an easy
Popular success by packing the new
opera with his characteristic melody. he
tried to make his score truly interpreted
tive, but met with numerous difficulties
OF which his lack of intimacy with the
scene OF the opera was not the least.
PuccinT's Problem.
The. dialogue for instance, was a
source of great embarrassment. The
speech of the Californian was short,
staccato, and angular, and it had to be
set to music 1t did not lend itself to
graceful, flowing melody. Puccini de-
sired to preserve the raciness the di-
alogue in the Italian as far as possible;
frequently the musical phrase is broken
because of the crisp and laconic dia-
logue The Italian librettist could have
obviated this difficulty by emasculating
the salient characteristics of the West
erp speech, bot Puccini did not desire
this and was highly interested in the
new problems placed before him.
