That Haddon Hall Elopement.

From the London Chronicle.
Those who are disappointed of a visit
to Haddon Hall by the closing order will
ind small consolation in reading about
Dorothy Vernon. Mr.. j. Il. Firth, in
Highways and Byways in Derbyshire :
gives reasons for believing that Dorothy
never eioped NJ reference 10 the elope-
ment occurs until about 1929. three cen
turtles afterward. And. for some reason.
novelists have never told the pretty
story very well. Eliza Meteyard
tSi!veyeab. the first who tried il.
wrote like this: And now, withdra wing
bolt and bar. she kissed the weeping
beldan. and. like frightened bird upon
the wing made eleven small prints upon
the eleven stone steps. light snow
upon flower. as dew upon rose, and
the prize was caught as a leafiet by the
wintry wind and borne away. So, then
as vet for aye, those little tiny, steps
were craven and set down like iron in a
rock like A mountain on the land, Ike
an ocean on the earth. for time can be

The cast is uniformly good, the music

The chorus is exceptionally attractive

knows how to delicately define the
lights and shadows of a scene She
passes in an instant from a moment
