OF the movements. The whole thing was
done in slipshOd way. the Captain
pointing to the spot where he wanted
the men stood. where he wanted the
firing squad to stand and the position
of the collins. The firing squad was
lined up about twenty feet from the
condemned men.
The Captain fumbled In his pockets
and looked little annoyed. He began
going through his pockets again and
finally drew out n folded sheet Of paper
from his back pocket. The soldiers
looked on with no apparent interest;
the prisoners kept their eyes on the
ground AZ the Captain read the charge.
1t was something about plotting against
the Government Of Mexico, the usual
thing. my friend told me. The men
we're asked II they had anything to say.
Neither made any reply or in fact
seemed to pay any attention.
The Captain stepped back on line
with the firing squad and one of the
soldiers stepped forward and tied a
brightly checkered piece OF cotton rag
about Ramon's head. He moved over
to Juan to do the same. but the pris-

seasons, like an echo Of the old Covent
Garden days, the Royal Italian Opera
Company Of Drury Lane. London, has
made an annual visit to Ireland, and
upon the last occasion the leading tenor
was Thomas Egan.
An Irishman at the head of an Italian
opera company does seem like a revolu-
ton. but think OF a grand opera COM
pany organized and run b. an Irish
man with the name of O'Mara chiefly
for the purpose Of producing Wagnerian
operas In Ireland.
Even this will not seem so strange
when one considers that one of Wag-
ner's greatest operas, Tristan and
Isolde" IL founded upon the famous old
Irish legend lingering around Isolde's
Chapel. which still exists in the quaint
little Dublin suburb OF Chapelizod
1t Is said that Flotow's inspiration
for the opera OF Martha" was an Irish
song, 1.-THE Last Rose OF Summer"
Nowhere In the world Is grand opera
received with more enthusiasm than In
the small towns In Ireland, and even
the minutest hamlet has been visited
regularly for many years by a modest
organization known as the Esther
Grimes Grand Opera Company. which
produces all the old favorites, Faust
Carmen" I'll Trovatorc." bohemian
Girl" Mariana" "I.ily Of Killarney"
over and over again.
