The following telegram was re-

president of the Associated Retail
ers Of Omaha:
"St. Paul, Mimi, Oct. IL. The
Chicago Grand Opera COMPANY
swept St. Paul music lovers off their
feet last night with the most bril-
liant performance Of 'Tosca' the
city has ever seen or heard. With
Fremstad, Ciccolini and Baklanoff
in the principal roles, the presenta-
ton had vocal brilliance and~dra-
matte FIRE that will not soon be
forgotten. The artists sang with
a freshness and spontaneity rarely
heard in an organization of this
kind. and the large audience re-
peatedly interrupted the perform
ance with unrestrained applause.
The orchestral support was remark
ably smooth and charming. and the
stage picture managed with a skill
not always associated with opera.
Nine. Fremstad was in brilliant
voice, and scored not only as a
singer but an actress. George Bak-
lanoff once more demonstrated that
he is one of the great ScarMa of
the modern operate stage. Ciceolini
lived up admirably to artistic prece-
dent in his roles The interpolated
orchestral program conducted by
Csmpanini reused a perfect storm
Of enthusiasm! ...'

The following letter to The Bee

Replying to your article pertain
ing to Endres passing his hat for
campaign expenses, will say that
whoever wrote the article did not
know what he was talking about. or
else done it for cheap and malicious
campaign thunder.
II want to say right here that I
did not know that anything along
that line was being done and had /
known it l would not have per-
mitted it, but I found out later that
this is bsing done for the purpose of
assisting the Douglas County Gen.
trail committee, and I understand
that this is customary and being
done by both parties in every cam
paign; and furthermore, as to my
expanding from $1,000 to $4,000 in
my campaign, that is foolish and
absurd. l assure you if I had that
amount of money onshand l would
buy a Liberty bond, which is Of
more importance than my CAM
