THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH FRIDAY APRIL 8 101O

CARUSO SURROUNDED BY

DETECTIPES,

'GUARDED'IN OPERA FROM...

* BLACKHANDE YURY, JA

New York, March 8. This is Caruso day,:The whole of the Ameri- can: Continent is talking of the, autonisking precautions which have been taken, to protect the great tenor in this city. Last night he sang as Grimaldo in "La Gioconda at Brooklyn, with half a dozen detectives disguised as Viennese peasants mingling with the chorus, with arma policemen clinging to the rafters above the singo, ready to shoot at asy, bomb thrower who might jlook like, bycaming dan gerous; and officers of the law in immaculate Fevening dress" in theʻstalis, or resembling

excitabla Italians in the gallerios,

„New York's police hava saldom, had such a, glorious opportunity to hear grand, opers for Boibing,

This was all due to a series of "Black Hand' letters which Caruso had received during the last few days demanding 15,050 dollars, or offering him the alternative of assassination.

Caruso consulted the Chief Commissioner of Police, and, as a consequence, bit first appear. ence is opera since the threats were received Was made under the remarkable conditions'1' am describing.

"Is this Brooklyn or medi:oval Italy ?” aske one editor this morning. The piesautation of such an opera as" La Gioconda" amounted to a touch of realism not attained by tha most daring composer, even af work of the<type of "Elektrs". Caruso's opening lines, freely translated, era:

Basc msussins | · Baso assassios t Ye ate monsters 1. Yo are moidators | " And again, in the third act he sings 5-

The sharp axe for me is waiting. Open wide a dark obyan.. .

Some of the papers, bero go so far as to niser- that Casuto had a loaded revolver in his pocket, but that is merely a dash of American journalism...

·The audience was "immense." · Its emotion as it listened was only equal to Caroso's immortal sob as be sang. No bomb was thrown.

788 irrepkESSIBLE DHQBIE,

HIS TORTUDUS' WAYS.

Mrs. Stone, who prosecuted ber dhobl in the Calcu.ta Police Court on Monday, is, says the Empire, to be congratulated on her public spint and it is to be hoped that the exemplary sentence inflicted to him by Mr. Keay, the Magistrate, will have this effect of inducing dhobies generally to ponder over the in!quity of their ways. In Mrs. Stone's case, the washerman simply sold the goods entrusted to him for cleansing purposes, and pocketed the proceeds, but it is notorious that the artful dhobi bas many other little ways of turping in a disbones! penny.

For instance, we heard the other day (it was during the cold weather) of a dhobi whose ["chapkan" came undone at the breast and revealed to the searching, gaze.of the man sahib .whó was checking his washing a |banian of the finest and most costly material

The question arose whether he was at all likely to have invested two mostba' profit in the purchase of such a garment, and the lady having debated it and resolved it in the negative, promptly taxed, the dhobi with an. lawful possession. He was too startled to dely the impeachment, and it then appeared that the babiad was the property of a

well-to-do bachelor who had more of these

things than be could wearmat' least 50 the dhobi said. But this confcision did no

save him from a severe reprimand, and before be lef the house he became the unwilling posses. sor of three leaflets issued by the Religious Tract Society all bearing upon the Jurid faturs o daobies who broke the righth and tenth cominandments respectively. The lady hopes that she has converted him—and so do wel

The favourite dodge of dhobier, of couras, is to hire out the newest and glossiest abins en-

trusted to them by owners in Elysium Row,

for the benefit of the Lotharios of Bow Bar. These, rays the Empire, garments doubiless figure at many dances and evening parties for which they were never intended. It in't n nice subject, and we won't pursue it. Another trick is to hire expansive white dresses to fashionable beauties of Murghibatta'or other exclusive residential quarters, and their ladies employ their durzis to copy from them. For ways that are dark and words that are vain Ab Sin was a plaster saint compared fo many an innocent, looking dhobl or duszy in this City of Palaces.
