but to tho average listener's car, was quite
acceptable. Mmdo. Nordlcn was In excellent
volco nnd of course was appreciated.
But tlio great event was Tuesday' matinee.
Who ever heard of a Ttiewlay miitlneo I Thnt,
however, was not considered. -It was Pattl
day, and that was sutllcleut Inducement to
draw a crowded houso, no matter how largo
tho place, at any lime, even though it had
been given before noon, and on any day, Tho
program was "Tlio Barber of Seville" with
Pattl as "Roslun " Although not of tho
heaviest of Italian operas, it was novertho
less enjoyed for what matters what tho bill,
so long as Pattl Is In tho cast, Tho piece, nl
though of llttlo plot or action, contains some
bright music, nud the vnrlous voices were ex
ceedingly well brought out. Pattl did not
appear on tho stage until the last hnlf of tho
first act, but when the fair songstress skipped
from behind the wings tho applause was
deafening and prolonged. She very grace
fully acknowledged tho compliment and
seemed thoroughly appreciative of tko lm
menso enthusiasm In her uolialt. ,
Many who saw Pattl for tho first time wero
quite surprised to note her clear and thor
oughly artistic acting. It seemed to be the
idea that the great prima donna was consiuer
edonly In thollghtofaqueenofsong. ThlsU
a mistake, for on tho operatic stage the little
woman was a iierfect model of graceful dra-
matlo expression. In tho second net where
"Counto D'Almavira," "Roslna's" lover, diss
gulsed as tho muslo toacher, asks her to
sing her lesson, sho sang one of her favor
iUs, "II Baeio" by Slg. Ardlttl. At tho con
clusion two ushers appeared on the stage car
rying an Immeiiso tloral harp, l feet in
height. This was followed by numerous
other tloral presentations, and the applause
was even greater than when the inndame flrst
apenred on the stage. She accepted tho
honors In her usual aimauie manner.
In answer to this demonstration tho opening
notos of "Home, Sweet Homo" wero played
by the orchestra, and again tremendous ap
plause was heard. There has been so much
said, and said In such deft and glowing terms,
regarding Pattl's rendition of this popular
song that we acquiesce In tho presumption
that wo are Incapable of doing the effort Jus
tice with pen and type. It was something bo
