protested and Yates said that if he
had offended the court he wished
to apologize.
Joe Cunningham told Of the sale
of a small tract of land just across
the arroyo from the new park site
which was sold for $1,000 an acre..
L. O'Bryan, who has been acting
as evaluator for the county COM

plaintiff testimony, rose up to con-

well Of Harlingen while he was testi-
Tying Tuesday afternoon.
On cross examination, Attorney
Yates, for the plaintiff, exhibited
what purported to be a copy of an
advertisement that appeared in the
Harrington Star in November, during
the municipal campaign.
This followed a series of questions
by Yates in regard to the meeting
of the Harlingen city commission in
March at which the park purchase
deal was consummated.
Yates asked Harwell whether he
had announced previously what the
commission intended to do at that
meeting, whether he had advertised
it, Or shouted it from the house
tops"
Harwell said he had not.
He then admitted the authenti-
city of the copy of the advertise

him, then to attorneys for the de-
PENDANT city, then to the court, and
finally was read into the record.
The subject matter of the cam

BY ROY J.

CHICAGO April 2c.-They're
singing those Amarillo blues here
now because That's and temperament
have gotten Mary Garden famed
diva and star Of the Chicago Civic
Opera company all messed up in an
artistic cyclone that has blown first
hot and then cold all the way from
Amarillo, Texas.
That's the home of Gene howe,
doughty editor and self-acknowl-
edged critic, SO Mary calls him. Of
everything ranging from Charlie
Lindbergh at whom Howe took a
couple of cracks not so long ago, to
alleged missing scores from the
opera That's which showed on tour
IN Amarillo with Mary in the lead
ing role. -
said Editor Howe, welding his
nointed pen: This lady called
Mary is q lot of applesauce. Sne's
so cid she totters. Likewise, tney
cut That's when they gave It IN
deer old Amarillo. What do they
think we are? A lot Of hicks.
Resented Deletion
Of course Editor Howe, didn't
put it in just those words, or IN
lust that way. But he did say that
| Mary was SO old she almost tottered
from the stage, and he did imply
that the Chicago troupers thought
they could delete an opera and get
away with it just because they
were in the so-called sticks.
It was a terrific jolt, and Mary
took it on the chin foresquare al
though it is quite the first time she
has ever thus been publicly as
sailed. In her home adopted city OF
Chicago she rules the roost, and
there's no mistaking that. The
local papers all label her "Our
Mary" And she's not only famous
but almost a Chicago institution.
To speak i'll of her here would be
nothing short of lese majesty.
Eyes, / know he's read a book"
never WINGED, and came back at
Editor Howe with a couple Of right
jabs of her own make.
Eyes, I know he's head a book"
said Mary. But, Oh, dear me. If
he thinks I am old, how is he to be
wandering about with DYSPEPSIA at
his age?
"We cut the opera, Of course we
did. We took out one long, dreadful
scene from the third act that hasn't
been shown in 20 years in this
country. It's a scene that runs IL
minutes and is a repetition OF
themes in the first act. Even the
composer, Massenet, agreed long
ago that the cut should be made"
Stirs Chicago Critics
But the Texas storm, now blow
ing fiercely, has given a certain fac
ton opposed to Mary opportunity
here to try ouSting her froin the
opera company, 1t is said.
This group has always been Jeal-
| Gus of her, and has attempted to
use the Amarillo incident to prove
that Mary's power over her public
Is waning.
The diva's friends, however, have
come loudly to her support.
"Old? Why, she is not old. She
is at the height Of her career they
say. THE public still Is as mad
about her as ever"
But there is the Amarillo incl
dent. Amarillo guarantors Of the
operas appearance in the Texas
town held up payment Of 1900 for
a time following the tip-off by
Editor Howe that they hadn't been
| given their moneys worth. They
since have agreed to make up the
deficit.
Mary Departs for Chateau
As for Mary, the books of refer
ence on such subjects say she wac
born in Aberdeen, Scotland, Feb.
20, 1877. Subtracted from the pres
ent A. D. year and date, this tgass
her age at 50.
