But still Amlnn still carries with hor a roso, given her during her betrothal ceremony, nnd us Lisa and Elvlno nro on their way to tho church for their ceremony thoy bco Amlnn walking In sleep over a frail bridge abovo a mlll wheol. Sho sings n song to tho withered flower, and Elvlno Is convinced of hor purity nnd Innocence, and so restores her ring and sho awakens to happiness.

The story from which tho selection is takou la In brief: Lucia dl Lnm mormoor, or Lucy of Lamtnormobr, Is bnsod by the composer, Don llottl, on Scott'B novol, "Tho Brldo of Lnmmormoor." The bcciio la laid in Scotland. The principal characters are Lucy, hor lover, r.dgar of Rnvenawood, Henry, hur urothor, and Lord Arthur Buck law, whom sho marries.

Lucy, however, has already pledged horsolf to Edgar, who la Henry's hereditary enemy. Ed gar has promised to give up enmity to the liouso of Lnmmormoor, nnd tho two come to an understanding prior to his leaving for Franco on an embassy. Hotiry resorts to unfair menus to put an end to tho courtuhlp ho Intercepts lottora nnd oven forges mea pngea In order to mako Lucy believe that hor lovor Is untruo.

NEW YORK, Sept. 12. A second Inltor frnm TtVnnnla t nfinlltnii Hid ' .Altt.n f ...I AlMn.lnnH .ln1l..lt ..on... 0-1 New York todny from Dresden, Germany, written Bovcrnl days nftor the declaration of wnr botweon Eng land nnd Germany. Macmlllcn's lot- .ter wns written in Gcrninn. All I communications, ho snld, must now be In the Inngungo of tho country. He writes with n gunrded pen. Tho letter wns mailed unsealed. Tho violinist snld: "The scenes enacted In this wnr drama nro not all confined to thu battle fields. In the heart of thla great nation, at present far romov- jed from the horrors of wnr, Is be ing stnged daily tho drnmn of tho sorrows of war. It Is hero In Dres den and In other inland cltlos that the first act of tho great war dranuu Is being played. Dresden has fur nished her first quota of men. But soon she will bo cnllcd unon to ro- placo her dead in tho flold. Al J ready news thnt many Drcsdcnors nro uend anu wounded hns reached tho city, and dally tho Incronso In tho number of doors draped in crepe toll of the sorrowB of war. "Tlio night thnt war was dcclarod between England nnd Germany, tho hopes of tho pcoplo woro high. Thoy thought England would remain neu tral. Whllo In tho very net of Jol lifying over this prospect, tho grim truth beenmo known. Tho care nnd beer restnurants wero pnencd. Rich and poor mingled nnd all wero in a atnto of foverlsh excltomont. They npdrcclatcd tho full Import of kcoplug England out of tho fight. Tho newHpapcrs had stopped publi cation of dctulls, hut still rumors continued to nrrlvo. From whore, no ouo could tell. First It wns Bnld thnt England had declnrcd tier neu tiallty. Then, what a mighty Bhout would rend tho ulrl But Us echo would hardly die nway until n con tradictory roport would bo circu lated. Illlt flnnllv Mm rniil nnwa arrived. "I wns aoated In n well-known enfo, when a shaggy-hnlrod man, tired eyed and with a two-days' growth of heard, elbowed his wny Into tho rcstnurnnt. Evidently ho was n Journnllst. Mounting n cnalr In tho mlddlo of tho room, ho rend aloud from nn official bulletin that England had Joined Franco nnd Russin In tho mighty conflict. Tho scene thnt followed was Indeed a strnngo quo. Not .a volco wns rnlB ed In protest. All snt in sllenco ns If stunned. Thoro wns no loud talking, no disorder. In fact. I haven't hcoii ii fight In DroBdon. slnco tlie wnr began. Nolthor hnvo I seen any signs of drunkenness. "Whorolu this wns tho nttltudo taken In all the hotter class res taurants, thla spirit of qiilotudo did not prevail In some of tho Binnllor cafes. Here, the pooplo burst forth In patriotic speeches and wild battlo songs. Thoro wore shouts for "Wilholm, tho Kalsor or Eu rope." All night tho rnbblo paraded tho Htreots. It was then that tho solitary act of dlscourtosy occurred. A crowd inrostod tho British lega tion, whero thoy Indulged In wild threats and finally atoned tho house. "But hostility towards the Eng lish for tho most part has boon confined to the lower clnssos. In fact, tho British have boon kindly treated. This Ib a hot-bed of Eng lish peoplo and God nlono knows what might happen If tho public woro disposed to vent Its nngor upon thorn. Tho fear of Russian Invasion Is tho only discordant noto heard here. All Gormnny Is confident of success on her western bordor. But tho uows that tho wholo of Rus sia's strength la bearing down upon hor eastern frontier Is causing th wlso to shako tholr heads. Tho onslaught towardB Berlin, thoy bo llcvo, will Include Dresden, us tho capital of Saxony. Most Germany, howovor, bollevo poace will bo es tablished within a fow months. "Tho Americans horo woro Jollify ing todny over tho receipt of now that tho battleship TonneBsco wns on hor way with Am or lean -gold, As most iiowb Ib muddled by tho tlmo It Is mouthed around, so was this Information. Many persons wore Informed that hordos of this gold had already reach Dresdon. As a rosult the sconos around tho Amer ican Consulate rcsomblod thoso at tendant upon a run on a New York -East Sldo bank." Tho violinist adds that neither ' ho nor his mother, who Is with hluu have suffered any great Inconven-' lenco on account of the war. As. evidence of thla fact, ho cites a Jolly dinner party which took place slnco tho war began at Loschwltz. near Dresden, glvou at tho house of Prof. Leopold von Auer, the fa moua violin pedagogue. Incident ally ho montloned that Prof. Auer. being a Russian, was undor surveillance.
