strength is lowered, it is likely to
effect a lodGmcnt. and no man can

out the patronage OF the wealthy II would
be impossible for such companies to exist
here. This was generally conceded to be
fact. but Miss White maintained that,
despite the patronage OF society In opera,
a greater, appreciation of music existed
in lower social circles The discussion that
followed rapidly waxed into heated aFKu
ment, and necessltated that Miss White
adopt some particular way of clinehing her
argument. She assumed form OF a wager
which was quickly accepted
1t was that Miss White was to sing in

one or two complimentary remarks were
passed, and several small coins were ten
dersd the singer, but nothing more im-
portant happened,
on the East Side where the aria was re-
peated, the streets quickly became tammed.
and throughout the song the vast audience
stood as II spellbound. When Miss Whites
voice had finally died away, the crowd
burst into enthusiastic cheers, ana not only
showered the singer with money in many
cases being all the money the donors pos
