Mr. Bell has had several f1attering
offers of late to become connected
with large companies, one among the
number happens to be too attractive
for him not to entertain and he has
therefore accepted a position to rep
resent one of the largest tobacco COM
panies in the country. He will leave
Louisiana some time during the
month of February for New York,
from which point he will sail for
England, and will in all probability
be permanently located in Turkey.
Mr.. Bell, when interview by the
reporter, indicated keen regret over
the fact of leaving Louisiana and
particularly her good people whom it
has been his pleasure to have met.
He also stated to the reporter that
he shall always cherish the thought
of having been privileged to be sta
toned at the Jahncke Shipbui,ding
Plant, where the men had but one
idea and that idea was to build ships
for Uncle Sam.

consequence of the accident Mr.. Nor

hand during the week. He stumbled

keep Armand away from work for
a few days.

Of the performance Mr.. Krehbel
writes in The Tribune:
"Mr. Polacco directed the work like an
organist who thought the full organ the
only proper medium of utterance for Or
chestra and chorus. Miss Fitziu, to whom
fell the privilege of impersonating the
