The Story of "The Secret Of Suzanne

The Story of "The Secret of Suzanne"
The composer OF The Secret of
Suzanne" which will be sung in this
city by members of the Chicago Grand
Opera Co. at the Grand matinee and
evening Of Tuesday, Oct. Is, is Err
manno Wolf-Ferrari, whose fame has
been won chiefly by this one work
The story is taken from the French
of Enrico Golisciani. Munich saw the
first production on November a. 1909,
and the present production by the
Chicago Grand Opera Company is the
first that has been made in America.
There are three characters-Count
GIL, who is about thirty years old;
his wife, the Countess Suzanne, who
is ten years his Junior, and dumb
servant, Sante, who is about fifty.
The scene is the drawing room of the
counts home After the beautiful
overture the count enters greatly
worried, for he has seen woman on
the street who looked very like his
wife and he knows that the countess
does not venture out alone. He
smells cigarette smoke, and not being
smoker himself, his suspicious are
aroused. The dumb servant is, ques-
toned and he tells the count by ges-
lures that he does not smoke. The
count knows that his wife does not,
and his suspicious as to another man

ton. The countess enters and she

FENWAY PARK, BOSTON, Oct. IL.
New York came back with RUDE
Marquard yesterday and made it even
all with the Red Sox, by winning the
third contest of the worlds series by
a score of 2 to /.
The Sox, fighting desperately and
forced to come from behind, made
a sensational ninth inning rally that
threatened to put the game out of the
fire when Marquard faltered and the
Giant defense threatened to crack,
but Cady, who had replaced Carrigan
behind the plate, was unequal to the
task passed up to him in the pinch
and when Deyore pulled down his
long fly, the agony was ended and
the race was evened up.
Marquard, who had been question
mark in the Giant battery cast of
characters, came back with flash OF
his early season ntneteen-in-a-row
form and given lead of run in the
first inning held the Sox safe all the
way.
tions, the contest was a tepid af-
fair from the spectators standpoint,
but it was an infinitely superior exhi-
bition as baseball product, but a
single error marring the score
O'Brien, who opposed the Giant
would have won with lots to spare
had he been pitted against the Giants
exhibition of yesterday but the luck
was not with the Red Sox saliva ex-
pert and the Giants backed Marquard
up in fashion that must have made
Mathewson envious.
Bedient who again made ninth in
ming entry after O'Brien had given
way to a pinch hitter. held the Giants
safe In the closing stanza, but the
game had been sewed up prior to his
entry.
AS in yesterdays contest. Murray
and Herzog were the bright particu-
lar stars for the Giants, while Card
ner figured in the only really thrill
ing pinch endeavor by the Sox.
The figures on the days attendance
and receipts were as follows:

That the ninth inning rally of the
sox did not at least tie up the game
was unquestionably due to the fact
that the Boston coaches went uT

and her husband have love scene
together. But the odor of tobacco
smoke ON the wife's gown sends Cupid
fleeing. The count asks hrs wife IL
she has not secret, and she admits
that she has. Now the count Is GER
tain that there is another man in the
case and he goes into rage ana
smashes the furniture and bric-a- brac.
Weeping, the countess leaves the
room and the count is in despair.
Then comes a lovely orchestral inter
lude, matched only by the intermezzo
of "Cavaileria Rusticana,' during
which the smiling Sante clears up the
wreckage
When the countess returns the
count prepares to leave His wife,
after trying to pacify him, gives him
his hat and gloves and he goes off in
a huff. AS soon as he leaves the
countess lights a cigarette. But her
smoke is interrupted by the counts
sudden return. Quickly she drops
the cigarette into the fire. The count
in fury, thinks he has his man now
and he PUSHES savagely about the
room. His wife asks him il he is
looking for his umbrella which she
hands him. The count promptly
breaks the umbrella and tears off in
to the other rooms locking for his
rival. Immediately the countess lights
another cigarette,
The lamp Is low now, and the young
woman voices her sentiment In ten
der, exquisite cigarette song. After
awhile the count appears at the win
dow outside. In triumph he comes
through the window as the countess
hides the cigarette behind her. The
count grabs her to jerk her from in
front of the imaginary man and
burns his hand on the cigarette! The
secret out at last, the husband is
penitent and so is the wife. They
forgive each other and husband and
wife smoke together and do joyful
cigarette dance" The story closes
with the dumb servant himself light
ing cigarette as the count and coun-
tess go off happily to their apart
ments. Advertisement

DANGERS OF INBREEDING.
Care Should Be Exercised In Matino
Certain Breeds of Horses.

The danger OF ln~breeding. which IS
a ID practice among breeders
n horsemen who are not fully posted
on the conditions: required for breed
ing certain types Of horses. has re.
Gently been borne out by conditions
which now prevail in South Africa.
The first blooded horses imported into
that country were English thorough
brcds, says the New York Times.
The horses imported were bred and
inbred, and, while the results were
satisfactory at the start. the conditions
at present are far from ideal. The
horses at present lack bone and sub
stance, and a man who is familiar with
the conditions there states that il is
now no uncommon thing for horses to
break their legs while being driven on
the asphalt streets.
Naturally the horse owners are very
much dissatisfied with such a condi-
ton and are searching for an outcross
that will enable them to breed.a hardy
and strong breed Of horses with finish
and style, yet with bone and substance
tina will enable them to be driven Oh
all kinds of roads without danger of
serious accident. The most satisfac-
tory cross to date is the American
%trotter, but only certain types of the
trotter are in demand. These are
horses with plenty Of size and bone,
yet with an excellent conformation.
Speed is not a requisite and is. in
fact. rather Stunned. for the South
Africanders have an idea that the
American breeders have been sacrific-
ing the qualities they demand in an
attempt to secure extreme speed.
American breeders should take heed
from the experience of the South At
rican breeders and avoid the policy
which has produced an almost worth
less breed Of horses in that young
country.

LADYBIRD'S VALUE INCREASED
California Finds It Useful as a De-

The state of California has recently

bird as a destroyer of the plant lice
that Kill the fruit buds. These lice de-
stroy orchards and vines. and their
greatest enemy is the ladybird. The
difficulty was to procure the ladvbirds
in sufficient number, and collectors
were sent out into h mountains and
the wilds of the Sierra country to col
lect them. In II canyon they dis
covered large quantities Of the castoff
shells of ladybirds. but not a trace of
the insect.
After stalking out the place they re-
turned in the winter to discover the
secret Of the mystery. for under the
snow they came across what looked
like a peculiar SNOWFALL, with a nu-
cleus of twies and pine needles. The
ball was broken, and inside was found
4 squirming mass of ladybirds. Four
hundred pounds of ladybirds were dug
up in one day from under the snow and
sent to Sacramento. The little crea-
lures were kept alive during the win
ter and then let loose i'm the fields.
where they soon destroyed the noNious

What is dry farming: The phrase
has been used much in the last few
years. and yet there is more or less
mystery in some minds as to it's mean
ing. Dry farming is nothing more or
less than good farming. 1t means

states where the rainfall is compara-

been the chief method of insurinr
abundant crops. In such sections dry,
farming, Of course, does not mean
strictly dry; it means simply dry in
distinction from wet farming where
irrigation is used.
The writer has personally seer i'm

comparatively high and dry, where ir-
rigation could not be practiced and
where three or four years ago there
was no value whatever attached to the
land except for grazing. Thousands
Of such acres in the state Of Montana
produced from thirty to fifty bushels
of winter wheat on land that cost the
owner from $40 to $50.
The method employed is very sim
pie. Wheat should be sown by the
LIST Of September and should make a
good stand by the middle of October.
1t is then narrowed and left for the
winter. When it has come up strong
in the spring it is again narrowed Sc

crop was entirely destroyed. but this

Dry farming could be practiced to
much advantage even in the so called

Soy Beans For SiIaue,

Only a few farmers in New York

Some have failed to raise profitable
crops: others who did succeed did not
know how best to utilize the crop. Soy
beans are good nitrogen gatherers when
the necessary bacteria are present and
are excellent food for poultry. swine
and sheep, but they are most economi-
cal when mixed with corn in the silo.
