Jackao A WaahtDftoa St. Tlie manager hud made rapid strides In bis profession. lie was only thirty, yet lie was sole proprietor of u success ful comic opera troupe. He was very businesslike with the members of bis company, but they all liked him. One morning he was receiving appli cations of caudidutes for the chorus. A girl wltb brown eyes aud comely face and figure was admitted. "You are" be asked. "Leouaretta Traver." "You sing" 'Soprano.' After a trial of her voice she was engaged, Leouiiretta sang so well that she was soon rust for one of the Inferior parts. At the first rehearsal after the assign ment she astonished the manager by singing a deep contralto, l'ew wouieu could reach tbe notes she struck. "What1 the matter with your voice?" asked the manager astonished. "Dou't know, sir." "You have been singing soprano for two weeks aud now you have bloomed Into a contralto." "Souiel lines my voice is much lower than at others!" "Your part isn't written for a con tralto. I'll have to change it or change you. 1 don't want to do either." "I may be able to slug soprano when I go on lu costume." The manager studied the matter, looking the while at the girl curiously. It was u very strange case. I.eonaretta snug contralto till the evening of the flrst performance, when she came to the theater looking pale and thin. I "Hy Jove," said the manager, "you I look as If you'd been keelhauled! I hope there's no new voice to provide for." "I've had u sick spell." replied the girl. "I think my natural voice has come back." "What?" "1 shall sing soprano tonight" Tho manager hurried off to attend to another matter, but bis mind was on the girl nnd this remarkable change of voice. When Leouaretta went on she sang soprano like a bird and so delight ed the audience that the manager was delighted also and cast her for n high er part at the next performance. One morning Leouaretta was In tha manager's private office drawing her salary, wheu be looked up at her and said: "I'm going to put on n piece next week with a man's part in It that would Just suit that contralto voice you took on not very long ago. Now. if you i-oulii only call it up at will. I'd cast you for the part aud pay you $TtO a week." "When Is the (list rehearsal?" "Ou the 15th." "1 may sin contralto by that time." "What makes you think s?" "Well. I'm .liable tu a relapse at any lime and haven't Im 1 one for a long while. It's due now." "Nonsense." lie engaged a baritone for the part, who deserted three hours before the performance. U'ouaretta wos witli the manager wheu lie received the unwel come news. "I'll take the part," she said. "You? Has your voice relapsed?" "Not yet. but 1 think it will before 8 o'clock tills evening." "Well, upon my word! Do you menu to say that" "I'll be here ready for the part." At .4:40 o'clock she went on wjtb one of the finest baritone voices that had been heard tu that house during the season. She had been announced ver bally us Signor Harllll to take the part of the uian whose name was on the program. At the end of each act SI gtmr Harllll was called before Ihe cur tain and at the end of the often re elveil a perfect ovation. "Now, see here," said the manager after the performance. "You're a won der. You're worth much more than I nui paying you. A girl who can sing soprano or baritone at will Is worth a fortune. We start on (lie road next week, and if you'll go with me and will gun run tee to sing the different parts as 1 may require I'll give you a hundred a week and all expenses. You see. I sn ve t lie sa I a ry a ud t ra vcl lug expenses of one principal role. I'll make you another proposition." He dropped his businesslike tone and spoke fervently, "You know very well that you have long leen my favorite in the company. Indeed. I mny say that ever since 1 first saw you I've lieen dead gone on you. Will you marry me?" The girt burst Into n laugh. 'Tome home with me." she said, "and talk It over." The manager consented, nnd when they reiv-hed Leonnretta's lodgings she excused herself for n few moments 8hc soon returned band In hand with n young fellow, the very counterpart oi hemelf. her twin brother. "I am Leonard Traver," said the boy "and this Is my alitor. Leonnrettn When she fell III some time ago 1 tHk her part, though I couldn't sing " prano. Tonight I sang the baritone part and received your proposition of marriage. My sister wnuld answer it. but now that you know there would be two salaries and expenses to pay In stead of one 1 presume It la with drawn." "You bet It Isn't," Raid the manager, clasping Laonaretta In his arms. I hereby announce myself a Repub lican candidate for the office of Jus tice of the Peace for Deer Creek Dis trict.
