has been patched up. The question OF
how to get IL back TO France has not yet

were undertaken. but always with the

purchase Of the Covent Garden estate Of
the Duke OF Bedford. which includes nine
teen acres in the heart OF London, has
set the society gossips busy over what is
said 10 be an Interior motive OF the deal.
The estate embraces the famous Covent
Garden Opera House and the story goes
that Sir Joseph intends to storm the cita-
del OF fashionable opera which has for
so long been dominated by an exclusive
clique headed by Harry Higgins. chairman
of the Grand Opera Syndicate. whose wife
was Mira w. L. Breese OF New York.
The Warehouses OF Ripon has been the
