&9 Although 1t remains dark
most Of the year, its brief period of
opera is celebrated by notable out
pouring Of Americans and Panaman-
ians. It was an exceedingly we'll
dressed audience, for although the pit
was plcntifully sprinkled with men in
white. the two lower galleries were in
solid full dress. In the center box Of
the first tier, ornately hung with flags
and coat of arms, Anthony beheld a
giant black man of majestic appear

Uniform.
'That is President Calico" Edith
told him.
AS the curtain fell on the first net
Kirk rose with the others and, accom-
panied by Mrs. Cortlandt. made his
way down the long passageway and
out into brightly lighted, highly dec
i, Grated foyer, filling now with voluble
people. 1t was splendid room, but
he had no eyes for It. His gaze was
fixed upon the welcome open air prom
enade outside, and his fingers fumbled
with his cigarette case.
'Oh, wait, please" he heard Edith
say. II want you to meet some one"
There. not yard away, was the girl

helped to hide his emotion. for around

through which Mt last came Mr.. Cort-

party. Then by some glorious miracle
Kirk found himself moving toward the
open air ut her side, with Mrs. Cort-

them.
"Oh, Chiquita," he said softly, II

At the tremendous intensity Of his

"Chiquita Is not my name." she said,
reproyingly.

CLAUDE carp ESCAPED
FROM INSANE ASYLUM
p>xbass Patient at jamestown Cap-
! ed at Rugby After Giving the
Y Authorities Much Trouble

Claude carp, who was taken
to the insane asylum at James,
town about FIVE weeks ago
from Maxbass, escaped from
that institution some time
last week and his whereabouts
were not known until he was
discovered in Rugby. He was
first found here at the Rugby
bakery, where he had been
acting rather unba a n d,
which prompted Mr.. Armour
to notify the authorities.
Sheriff Teigen and several
others went to the bakery to
get him, but were met with a
defiant look and orders to leave
him alone. Finally, however.
through insistent coaxing, he
was induced to go with them
and was taken to the county
Jail.
On Sunday, Mr.. Fletcher, of
the state department, arrived
here to take him back, and was
to leave on number 4. He sue
ceeded in getting his man into
the coach alright. but when he
turned his back for lust a sec
ond, carp had jumped up and
ran out of the car, but was
caught at the cast end of the
platform, and was again taken
back to the Jail. On Monday
afternoon, however, they sue
ceeded after much hard work
in getting him on No. 4 and
started on the journey back to
the state hospital at James,
town. carp is a widower, and
about 20 years old. His case
is indeed a sad one, and there
is much doubt as to whether
or not he will ever recover his
right mind.-Pierce County
Tribune.
