National Grand Opera Company.
The direct lineal descendant of
the original Duchess Dudley, and
the holder of the title today, is
now with the National Grand
Opera Company, and known as
the Duchess Gertrude Dudley.
This distinguished lady is im
mensely popular with the young
er set of the English aristocracy,
and though a Duchess in her own
right, is thoroughly democratic,
and of a philanthropic turn of
mind. The Duchess declares
herself infatuated with America,
and, although her original inten
tion was but to remain here a
short time, she has declared her
intentions of remaining in the
country a couple of seasons. The
Duchess possesses a remarkably
powerful and sweet soprano
voice. She is an enthusiastic
lover of music and delights in
everything pertaining to it. It
is this love of music, and the
gift of song which she posses
ses, as well as her charitable and
kindly nature that has prompted
the young Duchess to join with
the forces of the National Grand
Opera Company. In the associ
ation of musicians and singers
like herself and the musical at
mosphere surrounding her, the
accomplished artiste Duchess
finds her chief enjoyment. After
driving as good a bargain as pos
sible with her manager for her
artistic services, the Duchess in
structed him to send one half of
the amount to English charities
ana tne otner nan to ue uevuieu
to American charitable use. The
young aristocrat is well provided
with funds of her own. The
Duchess is supported by a strong
company of famous singers, and
will give one performance in
Newport Tuesday night, Febru
ary 6.

Mr. McClancy, a timber buyer,
on Thursday shipped from this
point three carloads of walnut
timber, which was consigned to
Glasgow, Scotland. The freight
on the timber amounted to $600.
Walnut timber is becoming very
scarce now, and is eagerly
sought, even the stumps of the
trees being used. The three
cars shipped by Mr. McClancy
Thursday, represent a large
amount of money.—Bates ville
