London, Jan. 16 —It very seldom falls to the lot of a young American girl to sing in Covent Garden opera, but Mics Elizabeth Parkinson, of Kansas City, has just signed a con- tract for a three- years’ engagement, beginning the coming season. Mies Parkinson, who {s a pupil of Mme. Marchesi and made her debut, t will be remembered, a year agolast December in Paris comic opera, bas been in London since June when she sang in many drawing rooms as well as at some big converts, including the Royal Amateurs. Mme. Melba is warmly interested in this young singer, and thinks shehas a good chance of becoming a great artist. Suggests Milita’s Use of Regular Army Horses.

He suggests thet this item constitute a charge against any sum standing to thecredit of a state or territory, and to be in addition to the expenses au- thorized at joint maneuvers of the militia and regular army. The rec- ommendation was prompted by the fact that some of the states which sent troops or batteries to the army maneuvers last fell hired horses for th omsion, nd pat clans for A BUNCO MAN AT LARGE. He Was at Work in the Vicinity of Rich Hill. A new scheme has just come to lirht which has been worked on tle farmers, especially the prosperous G-rman element in Bates county, very successfully during the past two or three weeks, says the Clinton Dem- ocrat. A ‘smooth looking stranger, who speaks German fluently, drives up to the farmhouse and engages thefarm erin conversation, usiog his native | tongue, and finally tells him of the | bargainshe has to offer Hegetsthe | farmer wad-his family interested by \ offering a five beaver overcoat and dress suit pattern, shoes, hat and all necessary furnishings, and a lady's | tailormade suit, fine silk waist pat- | terns and the ladies’ fornishings and to “clinch” the sale be throws in a | lot of remnants and a wateh, which | he values at $30, but is really worth about $2. The farmer receives the goods and gives his note for §60, which the “smooth” man discounts atsome bank and makes his “get- away.’ The victim finally finds out that his $150 outfit for $60 could have been bought at any store in town for from $20 to $30, making him a sadder but s wiser man.
