Although she always lived extravagantly , the

conditions of opera singers were very different

the cost of sconorr and contunioa. It Is also
to bo remarked that nt the Grand opera in
Paris no scenery or costumes nro permitted to
bo used in more than ono opera. The mounting
of four operas which proved complete failures
devoured the comfortable sum of 8171,000.

The latest scheme for getting her name in
bo papers ha/i boon Invented by n "highly re-
poctaulo" youug lady of Baltimore. It was
t simple plan. All she did was to promise two
raon that nho would marry each of thorn and
etthosamo hour lor both weddings. The
me who came first took her , and she relied
in the other to do something that would ad
vertise hor. Ho did. He chased the couple

It Is not customary now at fashionable wed-

; arrleH n large bouquet of roses , and simply

Brides who wear veils of lace instead of
ullo have them in scarfs nbout three yards

toad , both ends hanging down , but one bolng
onsidorably longer than the other. Many

atiu or silk , made with a train entirely nopa-
nto from the skirt , so that the dress may be
worn afterwards , walking length. They also
mvo extra sleeves made , If the bridal ones are

Ivo to do this aud the dress will thus do for

The woman who created n sensation In Wis
consin recently by masquerading as a man
and marrying another young woman has boon
discharged from custody. The relatives of the

she was hired by the girl's sister to play the
role which ended in so much sutntlal. She
oven denies that she is the wlfo of the man
who appeared and claimed her as his legal

The editor of The Now York Star offers an
