No engines for the New York Cen

PUCCINI'S OPERA
HERE THIS MONTH
'?The Girl of the Golden West"
to Be Sung in English at
Academy.
Final arrangements have been made
in New York by which Henry YV. Sav?
age lias agreed to send "The Girl of
the Golden West." Puccini's grand
opera, in English, to Richmond, on
November 27. Manager Wise, of the
Academy of Music, wns advised last
night that the production would be
here on that date, and while prlcos
have not been announced, they will
he at a considerable advance over the
ordinary?probably up In the pictures.
This opera, which is built on David
Uclasco's drama of Western life, was
sung in New York last season in
Italian, and this Is its first season in
English. The season has not opened,
but the run In the East will he neces?
sarily brief. For Instance, It will be
presented one night In Philadelphia,
one night In Washington and then tit
Richmond. The compnny. which will
trnve) by special train, will go from
here to Norfolk and then Jump to At?
lanta.
The Academy poopl- admit that "The
Girl of the Golden West" will be the
highest thing seen here this year. Six
sets of principals are carried, for you
can't make these grand opera stars
perform more than one night a week.
Because of the big space required for
an orchestra of sixty pieces and the
instruments, it will he necessary lo
remove one hundred front scats In
the Academy to have plenty of space.
Manager Wise almost dropped dead
when he remembered that these one
hundred seats will cut out a lot of
money, but Mr. Savage's representa?
tive notified him that they would have
to go. Knowing that an effort was
being made to bring the opera to this
city, many patrons of the Academy
have urged that a matinee perform?
ance be given, but this request was
denied, Mr. Savage stating that the
production wns loo big to" be put on
twice in one day while here.

who will relieve the permanent men In '
case of Illness or other disability.!
Though the work will be hard and con- '
tlnupus and will require the utmost
caution, vigilance anil discretion, tho
hours will be oasler than those of the
patrol force, und for that rcaaon posi?
tion on the traffic squad I.? much de?

the terms of the traffic ordinance were I
selected for the examination. Tho
test will be oral and win he conducted
mainly to see whether the officers art;
familiar with tho new ordinance and
whether they arc men of discretion
and ability. .
. Special insignia and uniform will he
given the traffic squad. They will
wear caps like those of tho mounted
force, except that the stripes will be
blue, and the insignia, to be placed on
the left arm, will consist of ji yellow
wheel, liicloslnn a horse's head, on a
blue field. Hoods for cold weather and
hoods for rain and snow will be worn,
and It is probable that the men will
wear a special stylo of boots or shoes
In cold and rainy weather. As their
hours are continuous, and no opportu?
nity for shelter In time of storm and
cold can bo afforded, tho board will take
especial pains to see that the members
of the squad are especially cared for.
Plans for Inspection,
At the meeting to be held to-day It
Is expected, too, that the tlnal arrange?

of the department will be made. A3

be roped off for the occasion.
The men will appear In regulation

this will be severely criticized. The
department Is now In splendid condi?

up to the mark.

Disengaging h'msclf from the meta?

utes. b<; managed to tell a few of hin
Idekfl of stage life.
'I don't know much about It yet,"
bo begun, "but I'm learning fast. So

body could be. Things have gone
pretty good for us. The people seem
to like our show, and they don't seorn

"what did vou think of It when you

Wistful glances from across the aisle

exchanged greetings, after which a

j Tvrus wns very ilrmly of the opinion
? that the American League had It on

I ho didn't want to talk baseball, at

he concluded.
The call of the feminine being more
potent than tho wiles of the interview,
he departed.
They do viv that Cobb is some actor.
His famous slide into public favor on
the stage is likely to stand with his
famous performance on the diamond
, when he pilfered all three sacks. In

With Rodgcrs flying In ono direction
to cross the continent, and Atwood Hy?

other Inventor of a flying machine.
The latent Inventor, so far as public

who has Just completed the model of
a new type he has fashioned out of his
own brain and with his own hand. He

them as to their ability to sweep
through the cerulean blur, and soon
he hopes to build ono in which lie win
follow the example of Molsunt, Hiinon.

to do. That is better than the way In
which the ancient proverb hud it.
