Giulio Gatti- -Casazza deserved a
better sponsor and less flamboy-
ant introduction. He was born in
Udine, Italy, on January 3, 1869;
studied mathematics in the univer-
sites of Ferrara and Bologna and
Reale Scuolo Superiore at Genoa,
and when twenty two years old OBJ
tanned the diploma of a naval en-
gineer. His studies in the humani-
ties and music we're privately con-
Quoted. At the end of 1898 he was
called to succeed his father, Ste
fano (who had been one of Carl
baldis "Thousand' and Senator
of the Kingdom Of ltaly--he died
in May, 1919, in the board Of di-
rectors of the Teatro Comunale,
in Ferrara, and about the same
time was made superintendent Of
the musical institute, Frescobali, in
the same city. In 1898 he was made
general manager Of the TeatrO
della Scala, the most famous thea
ire. in Italy, and in that position he
remained until called to New York.

The Case Of the
Two Managers

Mr.. Gattl spent the summer of
1908 in Italy and returned to New
York on October II. He repeated
the lamentatlon over the paucity of
opera singers in Italy and France,
ut announced the engagement of
four artists for the Metropolitan
company. Only one Of them, Pas
uuale Amato, a fine barytone,
achieved footing in New York, The
official prospectus for the approach

summer, there had been generous

formances began on November 16.

must concern myself chiefly with a
controversy which resulted from the
foolish experiment Of making two
managers representing divergent
policies, each supported by powerful
influences, pull together IN double
harness. The controversy became a
public scandal. Mr.. Gatti was ex-
perienced in the methods Of operatic
management; Mr.. Dippel was nov
ice. Mr.. Gatti was familiar with
the wiles of prime dome. the
schemes of publishers, the personal
aims which often actuate wealthy
patrons of art. and knew when it

Achievement After
The Scandal

1t is pleasure to turn down this
page of the Chronicle of Scandal in
order to open one which tells of an
idealistic endeavor on the part of the
gentlemen to whom New York is in
debted for the maintenance of that
proud and great institution, the Met
ropolitan Opera House. Proud and
great it is despite the follies com
mitted by some Of it's managers. Mr..
Conried, as l have noted, had drawn
attention to himself before he .be-
came director of the opera by his
production of German plays at the
Irving Place Theatre. By encour-
aging the interest in the drama
which had begun to show itself in
the universities he became almost a
national figure. He dreamed a
dream of a national theatre endowed
by the government, and what he
could not realize on a countrywide
scale he attempted to bring to pass
with the aid of the men of wealth
and social prominence by whom he

GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, Dec. 17.-Difficulties in maintaining the government average price on hogs here, $17.50, forced de cided break today in the value of corn, but profit-taking by shorts op erated afterward as more than a counterbalance. Corn closed firm, h to IS net higher, with January s135A to s1.357s and May s135s tc s1352s. Oats finished a shade to :. lower, and provisions varying from S5c decline to 5c advance.
 Hog growers were said to be assum ing that they had only six weeks to dispose of hogs at the present average values and that the feeding of high priced corn would be unprofitable ii hog quotations were snarply reduced Numerous bolders of corn, therefore, undertook to liquidate, and speculative selling broadened out. On the ensu. ing decline, however, shorts turned to the buying side. and prices took a quick upturn, which was accelerated by temporary embargo on new ship. ments of hogs to Chicago.
 Absence of export call depressed oats.
 Provisions incluenced by the tre. mendous marketing of hogs suffered the maximum fall for a single day.

BEST INVESTMENT
 HAVE EVER MADE"
Contractor Wouldn't Take Five Hundred Dollars for
 Good Tanlac Did Him

q just want to say right now that I wouldn't take five hundred dollars for the good that first bottle of TanlaC did me, for feel like it has given me a new lease on life," said c. E. Nelson a contracting carpenter living at TIPS 63rd avenue, Southeast, Portland, Ore. recently.
 Following a serious accident four months ago." he continued, which laid me up for eight or nine weeks I lost my appetite, and my stomach got all out of order. What little did manage to eat would sour and form gas. which would cramp and pain me until could hardly stand it. Then my kidneys went back on me, and my back hurt so bad l couldn't find a com fortable position. They said l had rheumatism or 1umbago.' then my right leg, below the knee, got to hurt ing me, and at times l couldn't stand on my feet or get up when down. was constipated all the time and sui fered a great deal with headache. No body knows how I really did suffer because just can't describe it, and as nothing seemed to do me any good had become discouraged about my condition.
 q finally sent down and got bottle of Tanlac, as I had read so much about it, and it was about the best in vestment I ever made. My appetite came bounding back after my first few doses, and by the time my second bottle was gone, my stomach trouble was almost gone, too. I am now eat. ing any and everything I want and it don't hurt me the least bit, and my kidneys and back are greatly i'm proved. At the time 1 started on Tan lac l had to use crutches in order to get about. but I don't need them now at all, and have thrown them aside. I have gained several pounds in weight, and can just feel myself get ting stronger every day. I have gone back to work already, and l never lose an opportunity to speak good word for Tanlac."

DEADLY WEAPON OF WARFARE
German Albatross Is Probably the
Most Powerful Machine That Has
Yet Been Developed.

The tendency in airplanes has been
to run to two extremes-for fighting,
as small and fast as possible; and
for bombing, as large and powerful
as possible. In q three-seated. one
passenger sits out In front mounted
in n machine-gun turret. The pilot
comes next, Immediately behind the
motor, while the second passenger sits
behind him mounted in another ma
chine-gun turret. This airplane is
capable of carrying many hunded
pounds of explosives ard, being very
fast and heavily armed, generally ac-
cOmplishes its mission.
The German albatroSs is capable of
horizontal speed of 300 kilomcters
(abOut 1877 mlles) an hour. 1t is a
single scatter and carries three ma
chine guns, which, being controlled by
the motor, shoot automatically and ST.
multaneously through the propeller.
The sight of these weapons converges
at approximately 80 yards In front of
the alrplane, making the chance OF
hitting the opponent three times as
sure. The motor Is equipped with an

HAD SEEN THEM "AT WORK"
Tommy Had Little Need to Puzzle His
Brains over Question Propounded
by Teacher.

Here is a little story that was told
at a social session by Representative
Hubert d. Stephens of Mississippi, as
an illustration that the best industrial
results cannot always be obtained
through team work:
Some time since, the teacher Of
public school in a country town was
instructing a juvenile class in mathe-
matics when she turned to a small boy
named Tommy.
Tommy" said she, "if your father
can do a piece of work in six days and
your uncle jim can do it in seven days,
how long would it take them to do it
together?"
About ten thousand years." was the
rather startling re1Oinder Of Tommy.
Ten thousand years = exclaimed
the teacher. "Why, Tommy, what do
you mean?"
81 mean," was the prompt response
of Tommy, that if you put them to
work together they would sit on the
fence, smoke and swap fish stories."-

Over the TOP,

full news that at four in the morning
we were to go over the top and take
the German frOnt-line trench. My heart
turned to lead. Then the officer car
ried on with his instructions. To the
best of my memory l recall them as
follows: "At eleven wiring party will
go out in front and cut lanes through
our barbed wire for the passage of
troops In the morning. At two O'Clock
our artillery will open up with an in
tense bombardment, which will last un-
t1l four. Upon the lifting Of the bar
rage the first of the three waves will
go over" Then he left. Some of the
Tonmies. first getting permission from
the sergeant, went into the machine
gunners dugout and wrote letters
home, saying that in the morning they
were going over the top, and also that
If the letters reached their destination
1t would mean that the writer had been

CATTLE AFTER WAR

: The United States at present
probably has more purebred
: cattle of beef and dairy types
, than is possessed by any other
nation or combination of ma
tiOns, according to the depart
ment of agriculture. At the
close Of the war European coun-
tries will require the different
types of purebred animals to re-
build their depleted herds.
Study of present and future
world conditions leads to the
conclusion that continental Eu-
rope will bid high for the dairy
type, while Russia will require
all types, especially the beef
types. 1t seems certain that i'm
porting countries will require
cattle free from disease.
Disease eradication in our cat
tie is therefore a matter of the
highest Importance not only for
the benefit of our own cOnsum-
ers but to facilitate after-the-
war trade.
