Mas? are the speculations at to ths practical management ot tha City Club a popular opera, to be given In October nsxt In ths Century Theater, with the cooperation of ths Metropolitan Opera Company In furnishing scenery. Indications point to Milton and Sargent Aborn. but neither the City Club's committee nor tha Aborns admit that there Is under way definite plana for retaining, or as yet, even Inviting the managers now giving grand opera in Engllah at the Brooklyn Academy to take charge ot the opera. Certainly, contracts bavs not been slgtied. Sargent Aborn, at the Academy last night said that bs did not know anything about ths matter.

Milton Aborn ia not in town. Plans are well under way to begin a season of opera in Manhattan, on their own account. In a theater to be built for the Aborns near Forty-seventh street and Seventh avenue. It Is doubtful, he said, whether that plan would be abandoned. Ke bad no doubt, he added, that the Century operas could be made to yield a profit, If well managed.

The Aborn English Grand Opera Company la preparing special programme for a Sunday night concert on May 4. On that date four of the Aborn companies will be in the city and from these will be chosen soloists and chorus for a gala night. While ths programme is not yet completed, stirring number will be the famous "Lucia" sextet, sung by a double sextet. It Is definitely settled that Geraldine Farrar will create the title role In Giordano's new opera, "Madame Sans-Gene," at the Metropolitan Opera, in the season of 1913-1914. The opera ia bated on the play of the same name dealing with the adventures of the famous washwoman Duchesa at tho Court of Napoleon which Madame Rejane and Miss Ellen Terry played In this country years ago.

There is also a possibility that Ml6s Farrar will essay the role of Carmen. It Is well known that Mr. Gattl-Casazza Is anxious to have her try and she has long cherished au ambition to play the part. The United Singers of Brooklyn are to a grand performance for the benefit of the Western flood sufferers. In Prospect Hall, Trospect, near Fifth avenue, on Sunday, April 7, at 8 o'clock The Brooklyn Quartet Club will present "Prince Methusalem." a comic opera by Johann Strauss, under the musical direction of Carl Fique.

"I want a picture that has the idea of speed to It real speed. I want it to go at a regular Marathon. But it's got to be new." "Yes, I see," and picked up a pencil. "How about Somothing like this." He sketched rapidly the figure of the messenger of Olympus, winged sandals, winged cap, symbolic staff and all. The advertising man looked it over approvingly.

"Seems all right," he commented. "But what, does It mean? Who's "Oh, Mercury? He was the speediest that ever lived," the artist declared. "Mercury was the god of speed, you know." But the advertising manager gave or.o long regretful look at tho sketch and shook hia head. "Too had," he murmured, sadly. "Too bad.

Politics Cieepi Into Ditcussicn a a Result of Split in Iamn-cratio Force. Despite tha of tbe cliair-man that politic! would placed In tha background aa (ar aa the calebratloa of the commeacamant of operations on the Greenpotnt Barge Canal Terminal was concernej. an Incident occurred at tha flrat publio meeting under the auspices til tha Btrga Canal Colebratluu Committee which savored eoruowliat ot political disaaaalon. Tha nieetlus. which waa held at New Eckford Hall.

Eckford and Cal-i er atresia, proceeded very eniootlily during tha early part ot the session and much enthusiasm was manifested by those present Attar practically every matter which was brought up during the course of the afternoon had been disposed u( and Michael Fogarty bad been elected permanent chairman, the question arose as to where ttiu next meeting should be held. In tha ordinary course ot oventa, a question ot this character would have been quickly disposed of, but here an unexpected hitch occurred. Politics In Oreeupuiut Is always a very absorbing topic, especially among the Democrats, who are divided Into two factious; one the stanch supporter uf the Jeffersou Club banner und Hi a oilier equally staunch in Its allegiance to the Mcvjuaje branch. As a result of this split In the Democratic forces, when Chairman Fogarty of the Mctjuade forces lequesied Alderman McGarry, who Is prominently affiliated with the work of the Jefferson Club, to express his views on the celebration, the latter noted the request, but declined to offer any suggestions until the latter part of the meeting. He then stood up and suggested tliat a public meeting place be determined upon for the next meeting of the celebration committee.

Others present thought tile Idea a wise one and a motion was made and seconded to limit the choice to two local halls. Mr. Fogarty strongly objected to any limitation of this kind as casting reflections on his power of discretion, so he declared the motion out of order and refused to put it to a vote. This action aroused a protest and a lively verbal tilt ensued tn which the Rev. Dudley 0.

Os-terheld, who figured conspicuously among those present, firmly Informed the chairman that It was his duty to put the motion to a vote on Its merits. Mr. Fogarty stood his ground und ihe discussion continued for over half an hour, when a motion was made to place the matter entirely In the hands of the chairman and trust to his diplomacy and discretion In the choice ot a suitable meeting place.
