Boito and the dirert ors. M.M. Sardou, Meilhac, Halevy, Obin, the director of fine arts, and two or three dignitaries and ofiieials of tlie Opera sat behind in the remaining rows of stalls. Among the critics were MM. Reyer, Brurieau, Joncieres. Bel l.'iigue, Pessard. Corneau and Surrey Tht' foreign press was represented by M. de Blowitz and myself, and as Ver ai came In all stood up, with hats off. and cheered the wonderful man. The orciestra joined, of course, in the .va tion. and it was to the musicians tbht the master went, and, bowing his ven crahle bond very low. he thanked them for the kind demonstration nhd shook hands with the nearest, but ubver one# did lie turn ottr way except for one mo tnenf, when he took us all In with a side glance—an ugly one—and tlirn for the rest of the evening, some five hours, Ignored our presence completely."

Ills horse turned out of the road, and the Bulky ran over a sapling and was tilted so as to arouse the judge. When he found that he could move neither to right nor left, r.n old negro, who had come along, solved the difficulty. “My old maester,” he asked, "what for you don't back your horse?” "That's true,” said the judge, and h< acted as advised.
