It was extraordinary that a city which had Roman hot-water baths had not also its own theatre. Every one wanted to go to the theatre; very few wanted to take a bath He never could understand why municipalities solemnly set up picture galleries and libraries, but omitted a theatre, which was much more important.

Mme. Sarah Grand said che would not revive the controversy whether Shaw wrote Shakespeare's plays, but one thing was certain Shakespeare could not have written Shaws.

Christopher Gray, a bathing atë tendant, who swam out and effect ed the rescue, was awarded £10, and Craig's parents were awarded a bronze medallion.
