Fifty Forest Fires.

BOSTON. Oct 23.-Commissioner of
Conservation William A. L. Bazeley an
nounced last night that 80 forest fires
are burning, in various sections of the
state the first of which started Wednes-
day, coincident with the opening of the
hunting season. The damage will amount
to thousands of dollars.
The most serious fires, he said, are in
Essex and Manchester. where valuable
timberland is being laid waste, and in
Barnstable, where Grown fires" are
spreading fast. The Grown fire" is so
called because of the sweep of the blaze
over the tops of the trees, impelled by
a strong wind, and rapid spread by fall
ing embers.
Other communities in which large fires
are under Roadway are Marblehead
South Dartmouth. New Bedford, Malta
poisett. Marion. North Attleboro. South
Braintree, North Adams, North Reading,
Middleton. Chelmsford, WalpOle, Wren
than and StoughtOn.
Because, according to the reports from
the forest and fire wardens, the fires as
q rule seem to have started in the depth
of dense woods. Mr.. Bazeley believes
that hunters are largely to blame.

RUlDDIGORE DRAWS
LARGE AUDIENCE
Gilbert & SuIlivan's Comic Opera Given
Pleasing Rendition by Boston OPP
era Company Singers

Ruddigore, Gilbert & Sullivans wide
ly famed comic opera, was presented in
the Auditorium last evening by the Bos-
ton English Opera company, and as in
the case Of the other entertainments
there this season an especially large au-
dience was present. The audience was
greatly pleased with the performance, as
was evident from the generous applause,
and we'll it might be as the opera is an
excellent one although others have been
given here which were more meritorious.
Ruddigore is a burlesque on melodrama
and the actors depict exaggerated char
acters. A feature which demands con-
siderable skill on the part of the cast
is that those who are wicked in the first
act are good in the second and those
who are good in the first are wicked III
the second.
1t was to the voices of the opera sing
ers that the patrons We're looking prin-
cipally, and in this respect they found
much to satisfy, especially in Alice May
Carley, eontralto, as Mad Margaret,
Bertram Goltra, bass, as Sir Despard
Murgatroyd, and Joseph Florian, bass.
as Sir ROderick MurgatrOyd. Mr.. Flor
ian, who appeared late in the opera,
stirred the admiration of the audience
particularly, and it was regretted that
he did not have larger part in the per-
Torrance. The chorus, in English cos
tunes like the rest, was made up of at
tractive young women with excellent
voices.
1t is interesting to note that John J.
Nolan, who is preparing the Wheel Club
Follies show, sang in .Ruddigore when
it first came to this country 33 years
ago, when Joseph Herbert George Brod-
erick, Ida Mule and Hattie Delaro were
in the cast.
