Tetrazzini is said to have broken off negotiations with the Metropolitan Opera forces, and it is extremely unlikely that she will be heard in opera in America or, nt all events, la the East next season.

There is in the Postofflce Department museum at Washington probably the most complete collection of stamps ever gath- ered together, this collection being the main attraction to visitors to that building. One hundred thousand tourists are alleged annually to ask to see It and Innumerable stamp collectors study it continually. The collection, which was gathered dur- ing years of research and endless work. contains every stamp issued by the United States, from the most common to the most rare, and in addition every extant stamp known to the world. Th© Postal Depart- ment values the collection at $200,000. yet authorities state that :t would bring almost double that amount if placed on the mar- ket.—The Pathfinder. : Vienna Has That Distinction A Move Toward Housing Reform. In no other capital in Europe ha3 the cost I of living Increased so greatly during the ' last two or three years as in Vienna, and I parliament haa taken one step toward i easing the strain by a grant of money for j the building of cheaper dwellings. Fifty j thousand pounds a year for ten year 3wi'l \u25a0 be placed at the disposition of local au- : thorities and buiid'.r g associations with this i object. * The amount is not very large, but it Is i a beginning toward the improvement of i the housing of the poor, who suffer ter- . riblv at present from overcrowding. Ac- cording to the last statistics available 1 nearly one-half of the apartments in Vien- na—which are all flats— consist of only one room, sometirr.es with a kitchen, but most- :ly ivithout. Forty-three per cent of the !whoie population are living in these one- | room flats. And that is not the worst, for I not fewer than thirty thousand of th»se> miserably small dwellings are occupied by . six or more persons. The sad consequences of such overcrowd- j ing are plainly to be seen in the mortality statistics of the city. In the crowded tene- I ment districts 296 deaths In 10.C00 are re- corded, against 123 in the better class dis- J tricts. And as regards tuberculosis—Vien- na's greatest scourge— 7o persons In K».000 die from this disease in the working clacs quarters, as compared with 16 in the othbr districts. Parliament's action in granting: money . for building sanitary dwellings in Vienna has certainly not come any too soon. 1 Vienna letter to The Pall Mall Gazette.

London's teaching force is proportionately Brcca stronger, especially In men. The smaller number of pupils in Loodon means partly that more of the children ef the moderately well-to-do there attend pri- vat«» schools, and partly that the chwn of the London poor leave school for werti at an earlier average age. Though the New York system is bigger, it Is twUnd London in some respects.

On his return recently from a European -trip a well known local theatrical man- "jager stated that the famous Passion Play j of Oberammerirau would not be brought ; to this country on account of the eices- | «;:ve cost. As a matter of fact, the Pas- : Eioa Play at any other place than Ober- | jainmergau or amid any different Burround- i In? s would lose Its significance as a strict- | 2y religious spectacle, which is the foun- dation of ice existence. •. -— . _ . However, the Passion Play of Oberam- arergau Is not the or.lv Passion Play that j ever was given. At the end of the eigh- j teenth century nearly every town and vil- j !*#=> li.

A COMPLETE STAMP COLLECTION.There is in the Postofflce Department

museum at Washington probably the mostcomplete collection of stamps ever gath-ered together, this collection being themain attraction to visitors to that building.One hundred thousand tourists are allegedannually to ask to see It and Innumerablestamp collectors study it continually.

The collection, which was gathered dur-ing years of research and endless work.contains every stamp issued by the UnitedStates, from the most common to the mostrare, and in addition every extant stampknown to the world. Th© Postal Depart-ment values the collection at $200,000. yetauthorities state that :t would bring almostdouble that amount ifplaced on the mar-ket.—The Pathfinder.

:Vienna Has That Distinction—A Move

Toward Housing Reform.Inno other capital in Europe ha3the cost

Iof livingIncreased so greatly during the'last two or three years as in Vienna, and

Iparliament haa taken one step toward

ieasing the strain by a grant of money forjthe building of cheaper dwellings. Fifty

j thousand pounds a year for ten year 3wi'l\u25a0 be placed at the disposition of local au-:thorities and buiid'.r g associations with this

iobject.* The amount is not very large, but it Is

ia beginning toward the improvement ofithe housing of the poor, who suffer ter-. riblv at present from overcrowding. Ac-cording to the last statistics available

1nearly one-half of the apartments in Vien-na—which are all flats—consist of only oneroom, sometirr.es with a kitchen, but most-

:ly ivithout. Forty-three per cent of the!whoie population are livingin these one-|room flats. And that is not the worst, forInot fewer than thirty thousand of th»se>miserably small dwellings are occupied by

. six or more persons.The sad consequences of such overcrowd-

jing are plainly to be seen in the mortalitystatistics of the city. In the crowded tene-Iment districts 296 deaths In 10.C00 are re-corded, against 123 in the better class dis-

J tricts. And as regards tuberculosis—Vien-na's greatest scourge— 7o persons In K».000die from this disease in the working clacsquarters, as compared with 16 in the othbr• districts.

Parliament's action in granting: money. for building sanitary dwellings in Vienna

has certainly not come any too soon.—

Brighton Beach Park received thousandsof bathers and promenaders along its milestretch of shore. The scenic railway, theMermaids* Grotto, the ten garden, the icecream parlors and the Ocean View Innwere crowded every afternoon and evening.

Palisades Park was crowded at the high-

est points overlooking the Hudson. Breezeproducing devices, like tne aeroplanecoaster, the automobile race and the scenicrailway, had their quota of enthusiasts.

At Dreamland "The Diving Venuses." theboardwalk, the bathing beach and the fish-ingpier and the new "ocean liner," with Its"TripAround the World," have been popu-lar points of Interest.

BEACH AND PARK.The hot days of the last week have made

up in part for one of the most disastrousmonths that the parks have ever experi-enced. Swarms of suffering humanity haveavailed themselves of the cooling diversionsafforded by Luna Park, Dreamland, Pall-Fades Park and Brighton Beach Park. Any-thing that sounded cool or looked cooi liasbeen patronized to the limits of its capacity.At Luna Park "To Mnrs by Aeroplane,""The Pneumatic Tube Ride," 1 "The Witch-

Enhancing the \/alue ofOur Oberammergau

Pictures.On his return recently from a European

-trip a well known local theatrical man-"jager stated that the famous Passion Play jof Oberammerirau would not be brought ;

to this country on account of the eices- |«;:ve cost. As a matter of fact, the Pas- :Eioa Play at any other place than Ober- |jainmergau or amid any different Burround- iIn? s would lose Its significance as a strict- |2y religious spectacle, which is the foun-dation of ice existence. •.

-— . _ .However, the Passion Play of Oberam-

arergau Is not the or.lv Passion Play that jever was given. At the end of the eigh- jteenth century nearly every town and vil- j!*#=> li. Bavaria had its Passion Play, j£oxr» of them contained unfortunate and*sves scandalous passages, it Is said. In.trie of these- the devil waa represented as jCuttins Judas open and devouring him. jla Mittenwald those playing the parts of jfcho Jewish crowd drove ChrSstus around ',(the \illag« streets with ribald cries and j•Jongs.
