had arrived from London that morn
ing for visit of three days in New
York. Between courses we discussed
at length Mr.. Hammerstein s London
opera season. He happened to remark
during the conversation that he had
taken apartments at the Hotel Savoy,
perhaps London S most luxurious hotel.

brand so costly that they are not
on sale except a. the stands OF few
leading hotels,
Mr. Hammerstein shook his head,
sighed, and took from his own cigar
case a long. black cigar, which bore
genera resemblance to Pittsburg
stogic. Remembering that the impre,
sar1o always fancied a certain pow
erful weed of his own make, | said
to him:

your cigars in Londop?' -

piled, But that is not entirely salts

who overcomes all traditions and
tablishes An opera house in opposi-
tion to Covent Garden, and who also
manufactures his own cigars in the
gaudy apartments of the Savoy.
At this same gathering Mr.. Ham.
merstejn told how nearly he and Mar,

morist, once came TO being partners,
and how it was that Wilder lost an
opportunity of becoming half owner
Of the prosperous Victoria theater.

Wilder, always thrifty, usually had
an abundance Of ready money. To con
the loss of the biggest theater in all

topics FOR while, and then Hammer

between what may be expected OF
them by me and by the genera
plavgoer. Having gone to see them
because it is my business 70, have
only 10 report on their merits and
dement's; but that question is con
siderably complicated, for the pay
ing public, by the fact that "Mak-
ing Good, being offered at
Broadway theater, costs twice as
much to sec as does Macushla. -
which comes modestly to Eighth
avenue, So the former play, in
which William Courtenay is the
chief actor, must be not merely as
good as the latter. which serves to
bring back Chauncey Olcott, but
must be twice as good Anything
of the sort is far TOO much TO ask
Of "Making Good;' so I shall re-
quest you to give it the benefit Of
my viewpoint. and dismissing all
financial qualifications, consider it
solely on it's merits.
