after he had come to America and

fused to go to opera unless it were
sung in the old place. The results
proved that society did not care a
pin for opera as opera. But what is
more to the point in this story is
that the city's wise men have been
seeing the finish, so to speak, of the
old quarter, and know that nothing
can be done to restore it now that
its most alluring seductions have
been lastingly diluted.
Other noted buildings in the
quarter will soon have passed into
the discard. Only few weeks ago

as captain Of the Bonaparte rescue
expedition. AS the work of fitting
out the yacht went on, Nicholas
Girod furnished his home in all the
magnifcence required for the abode
Of an autocrat in a democratic land.
The expedition was all ready to
shove off when one fine morning in
1921 a sailing vessel came languid-
ly out Of the Gulf and up the
Mississippi and dropped anchor in
front of the city, bearing as the most
important piece of news from the
outside world that the captive Terror
Of Europe had but just died in his
island prison.
Only the old country thoroughness
with which the early French settlers
in New Orleans erected their domi-

to-day the Haunted House, at Royal

This is perhaps the most famous of
all haunted houses. Certainly, if a
pedigree of horror is essential for
house to become infested with
spooks, this moldering heap Of
stone and brick, speaking from au-
thenticated records, should be a
haven for whole colony Of wraiths.
In it's happier days the house was
the scene of a splendid entertain
ment at which the Marquis de La
Fayette was the guest of honor. A
brother Of Napoleon was also guest
there. 1t was the sight uncovered
in 1884, when a fire threatened the

Saved for a Lingering Death

Until the fire burned itself out in
the hazy hour Of wintet dawn the
wind considerably played no more
pranks, eventually dying away while
blowing back toward the west. Thus
was the Vieux Carre saved-saved
from a tragic death to which the
dramatic conditions would have lent
an appropriate dignity, only to be
spared to suffer another death
through negligence and forgetful-
ness and under the unromantic heel
of the so-called march Of progress.
One is tempted to harbor the
thought that, save for the suffering
and loss it would have entailed upon
the unaffiuent ones who compose the
population Of the old sections, it
would have been more in keeping
with it's picturesque past if it had
been wiped out in it's setting, sug-

Beauregard Home Going

Another historical building which
is being allowed to fall, without pro-
test, a victim to time is the house
in which General P. G. T. Beaure-
gard, one of the noted chieftains of
the Confederacy, lived. To-day it is
only the home Of more families of
foreign extraction than an expert
census taker could, after assembling
them into their correct clans, emu
merate in half a day. The house
must soon cease to be. Of scores OF
other buildings, each with it's own
romance, this sentence could also be
written. Perhaps the only buildings
in the old quarter which will never
be permitted to disappear are those
three architectural beauties facing
Jackson Square on the west side
the Cabilde, the Cathedral Of st.
Louis and the Presbytere.
The cathedral is one of the best
known Catholic churches In the
United States, marked principally by
its austere and dignified lines rather
than by ornateness of interior. It
was built in 1894 through the gen.
erosity of certain Don Andres Al
morlaster y Roxas, whose name is to
be read frequently in many chapters
OF the story Of the city in ante
American times. Flanking the ca

walls, some Of them badly mutilated

The mob promptly wrecked the
building. Nine. Lalaurie, the wild
owed owner, fled to France, where,
it is said, she vowed her life to deeds
of mercy and charity, only to be
killed by wild boar in the forest of
Versailles. You can find hundreds
of negroes in New Orleans to-day
who will swear that one may hear
on any night the moaning of the
ghosts of the miserable slaves who
died in the old house.
New-York tribune., 1920-02-08
A SIDE street IN the Vieur Ca1re of New Orleans
There are many such streets IN this quarter of the
Crescent Citu

house, there was much wood used,
and consequently it was at once
noted that it was not q problem of
saving the theater, but of coniping
the flames to a building doomed
from the outset.
This Of itself was q prodigious
task for the firemen. AS is to be
encountered in every block Of the
old quarter, wooden galleries, or
balconies, as they are designated in
the North, extend from the second
story Of each house. Excellent
means Of communicating fame they
are.
For the first half hour that the
opera house flames roared and
cracked a stiff breeze blew from
the northwest, carrying frebrands
and inky black smoke low over the
gabled roofs Of the stone and brick
houses situated between Bourbon
Street, Esplanade Avenue and the
river, threatening that attractive
portion Of the quarter in which is
located Jackson Square, fianked by
the Cathedral Of St. Louis, the Ca
bildo and the Presbytere, of classical
lines, and the now dilapidated but
one-time decorative Pontalba build
ings. The famous French Market,
not 30 far away, seemed likewise
slated to go the way of all ancient
structures which obstruct the path
Of wind and fame.
So sure did the prediction appear
Of fulfillment that families in the
immediate neighborhood began to
pack their household goods. For al
most forty-five minutes, while the
flames continued to eat their fill OH
the woodwork of the theater, send
ing forth angry yellow tongues into
the sky through the hole where the
roof had been and illuminating the
city to it's extreme limit, the men
acing wind came on with growing
vigor. Then, as suddenly as the
fire itself had burst forth, the wind
veered. 1t was as deliberate as
though the supply came from some
titanic bellows, the operator of
which had shifted his location and
moved around to see how the fire
would look if he blew on it from
the direction of Royal Street, one
block east. Back across Bourbon
Street poured the flames, alternating
from glowing red to violent chrome,
dependent upon the material Of its
food below, whether rotting odds
and ends Of costumes and tattered
"sets" in the nusty property rooms
backstage or the less inflammable
green woodwork of modern renova-
