THE GREAT FRENCH DIVA
Honors and Attentions Showered Upon Her
by the Whole World.
N INTERVIEW WITH MLLE , CALVE
Boiivi-nli'H of Her Ilrllllniit Careur
HIT MiilctMiii In VarloiiN Cliar-
iieliTH The Itolc of .Saiuihu
In MiiMHCiiet'N Oiiorn ,
In a room whose atmosphere Is heavy
with the perfume of luscious roses and
fragrant violets visitors to Mile. Calve are
received by a charming and distinguished
woman , Mine. d'Hardelot , the composer and
conlldcntlal friend of the diva. Mine ,
d'llanlelot , who accompanied Calve to
America , and will remain with her through
out the season , Is part English and acts ar
interpreter for the singer , who speake
English scarcely at all.
Mile. Calve was gowned In a skirt of
block satin , with a bodice of scarlet crcpon ,
which was vastly becoming to her dark , rich
beauty. Distance and footlights cannot
enhance such loveliness as hers , nor can any
picture of her do It justice , for It lies In
rolled quite away from her forehead.
Calve wears no Jewel on her flrm , plump
hands , excspt one flno marquise of diamonds
set In black enamel.
AUTISTIC MAKE-UPS.
"Tell me something about your mike-
ups. How Is It , for Instance , that In La
Navarralso your face Is small , so exceedingly
small , your hair an unkempt , tangled maf > s ,
ycur figure heavy , your walk the dragging ,
shuflllng gait of a peasant , your eyes , too ,
are of dusky blackness , while in Ophelia
every'movement Is airy grace , your figure
girlish and face that of a brilliant northern
blue-eyed blonde ? "
"Oh. yes , " she said , "In Ophelia my eyes
are blue , " and Mile. Calve explained how
she had frequented studios and watched
artists painting portraits , and from them
had le-arned to treat the lower lids In such
a way as to Rive her eyes the effect of being
blue. She addc.l that , llko the pictures of
Impressionists , the effect near nt hand was
extraordinary.
"As to her coiffure , " chimed In Mme.
d'Hardelot , "It Is easy to do anything with
such superb hair as hers. " She then showed
the visitor how the effect was produced In
La Navarralse by rolling and pinning down
some of the hair underneath. Calve I ? , In
fact , a pronounced realist , and bestows In
finite care upon the smallest detail of her
costumes and makeup. Wherever It Is pos-
slblo she studies each character with Its
manners and costumes , as ehc did that of
Carmen , on Its ? native soil , and no matter
how ugly or unbecoming a costume may b ? ,
not a vestlgo of Its truthfulness Is sacrificed
to feminine vanity ; 1C all goes , even to the
coarse worn leather she of the peasant.

CALVE AS OPHELIA.
thft cnillo , the expression , the radiant colcr
and the unfathomable depths of the graat '
dark eye . Her hair , black as night , end of
extraordinary texture and ubundanco , W4
Mme , d'Hardelot , in the course of the con
versation , raid to me that the perfect fin-
ccrlty of the artist was an exponent of the
ibiclute livncsty and truthfulness ot the
woman. That Calve always iad ! exactly
what she thought.
ROYAL SOUVENIRS.
Mile. Calve was kind enough at my re
quest to show me the few Interesting souve
nirs of her brilliant career , which she has
ventured to transport across the ocean.
CALVE IN LE CID AND LA NAVAttlUlAISB.
Whenever she Is In England she always1
sings fcr the queen , who Is very fond of her ,
and never falls to present Calve with some
jewel. Among them Is a beautiful brooch
of pearls and diamonds In the form of the
queen's monogram , topped by a crown
studded with rubles. Another of her
majesty's glfU la a big butterfly with diamond
mend wings and emerald body. Then there
Is the llgura of fame , with outspread jeweled
pinions , a large diamond In the foot , and
the letters V-l-c-t-o-r-l-a U. I. In sap
phires pasting across It In a semi-circle.
This latter was- designed by Countess
Ololchen , a royal relative' , who has also com
pleted at the queen's order a bust of Calve
for her Imperial majesty.
The prlma donna , also possesses many
souvenirs from Hussla's royal family. Upon
the table stood a photograph of the grand
duchcss Vladimir In a beautiful broad white
frame , with the crest of her serene highness
In brilliant * and rubles set In the center of
the top of the tram ? , and from Count Nicholas
las was ono of those rare Hussion designs , a
clock upon a gold background with a charm
ing landscape rot In jewels underneath tliu
clock.
BIZET'S I'HOTOailAPII.
Then , of course , there were French decora-
dona and Interesting photographs galore.
Hut the photograph that Interested me most
was that of lllzet In a well-worn frame. This ,
Calve said , she always carries to the opera
bouEO with her when she sings "Carmen , "
And Mme , d'Hardelot told me how generous
Calve always la to the composer , yielding to
him invariably hla full meed of her success
and glory. Beneath the photograph of Am-
brolto Thomas nas written , "A. Einma Calve ,
a ma belle Ophelle , souvenir1 affecteux. "

And apropos of n forthcoming opera Sappho

And the sentiment- , Massenet , which
strikes the keynote of Calvo's.greatness , was
no leas Interesting :

c'est pourquol Calve est unp sublime artiste.
Lo vlell ami , MASSENET.
Another page which specially attracted my
attention contained the following ;

IN MASSENET'S OPEIIA.
When asked how she Ilkedl her role In "La
Navarrals ; , she was most enthusiastic over It :
"When I took the libretto to Massenet , "
she Bald , "he promlstd that I liquid have a
role which would satiety me , uid he has
kept his word. " Such a' role | The moat
exhausting ) No other equals It In Intensity.
Although It contains but two acts I am con
stantly upon the stage and am utterly ex
hausted when It Is finished. Massenet
taught me the part himself , being present
at all the rehearsals. Ho U exacting , but Is
so great an artist and to refined In his
methods that It Is the greatest pleasure to
sing under his Instructions. He was greatly
pleased with my conception of tne , character
and has written me charmingly about my
success , nut "La Navarralse1' should not
bo judged from the standpoint of an opera ,
as It has been In America , but ratrely as an
episode.

CONMIIIIAMTIUS.
A French Canadian couple , Louis Darwin
and his wife , now living In St. Paul , re
cently celebrated the eightieth anniversary
of their marriage. The husband Is 107 years
of age and the wife Is 101.
America has not an entire monopoly of
rich heiresses. Lady Mary Hamilton Doug
las , daughter of the late duke of Hamilton ,
will have an Income of fl,000,000 a year
when she becomes of age.
The report Is current In New York that
the prospective husband of Lady Randolph
Churchill Is not William Waldorf Astor , but
the famous Tammany orator , W. Dourko
Cockran. Mr. Cockran has been a widower
a few year ? and Lady Churchill a widow
about the same length of time. Doth are
extremely wealthy. It Is understood that
they flret met In Washington , -while Mr.
Cochran was In congress , and that ehe had
her attention called to the brilliant fellow
by one of his masterly oratorical efforts.
A remarkable story Is connected with the
marriage of Mrs. A , C. Acken of St. Au
gustine , Fla. , and W. S. M , Sorrell of Golden ,
Colo. , which took place on the 30th ult , The
groom Is 78 and the brldo 74 years old.
Fifty years ago Sorrell saw a portrait of the
lady arid vowed he would never marry until
he found the original. Years passed with
out Sorrell discovering Ms love , but he re
mained true to her likeness nnd never mar
ried. Three ycaro ago Sorrell , who had ac
quired wealth at Golden , Colo. , learned by
accident that the original of his photograph
was Mrs , Acken and that she was living In
Florida. Sorrell Immediately went to St.
Augustine , but found the lady had a husband.
He returned to Ills' Colorado home. Two
years ago Mrs. Ackon's husband mysteri
ously disappeared and has not been heard
from since. When Sorrell learned of Acken's
disappearance ho Induced Mrs. Acken to ob
tain a divorce on the ground of desertion ,
Mrs. Acken's wedding dress was u fac
of the cno that charmed Sorrell.

A well known ! society gentleman , ono of
the first hundred of the St. Louis Four
Hundred , who should know all about such
things , says the Globe-Democrat , approached
the wlno steward of a leading hotel the
other day , saying :
"My wife 1& to give a party , and wants a
punch made out of something else than
champagne or claret. Mind you , no cham
pagne , no claret. The wlno steward must
remember that. "
The wlno steward dld/'understand / this , but
explained that a nice- light claret punch was
about as light a punch as could bo made , and
about as palatable to ladles.
"That does not make any difference , " sold
the gentleman ; "the orders are no claret nnd
no champagne. Now , what can you do ? "
"Leave It to me , " replied the steward ,
*
"and I will fix you up something that will
please your guests. How would a punch of
cordials answer ? "
"Not at all. That la too much drug store
and confectionery puncheo , I want the real
punch , but no champagne and no claret. "
And so then matter was left.
Now , the fact la , that but a small proportion
tion of drink mixers know how to make any
thing but a e-tralght old-fauhloned whisky
punch , and many of them do not know the
latter. In the east , the fashionable' hotels
have a punch named for the hotel , and the
secret of Its mixture Is guarded very care
fully. Hero lu St. Louts a "GIobo-Domocrat"
reporter visited a couple of dozen of men em
ployed at bars which command the best
trade In the city , men who are supposed to
bo adepts at mixing anything that combines
whisky or wlno , and but five of them could
tell how to mix a punch. Ono man had a
receipt , which bo had experimented upon , for
which ho had refused $100. And yet another
man might takeIt and produce a drink
which would be on a par with Mississippi
river water In Its present darkened condition.
That Is , there Is everything : In knowing how
to put the , Ingredlentu In , In wlut order , and
how fast , as well aa In knowing what they
art . That can only bo learned by success-lvo
attempts. Another thing to remember Is that
there Is everything In flavoring , A good
cook knows when to put the flavoring Into
cake * to moke It most delicious , and the same
good coolc will exercUo the- same good Eunse
In flavoring a punch , an eggtiog , or any
thing else. And , by the way , the most de
licious flavoring for cggnog Is a llttlo cham
pagne , and the linen flavor for a punch ID
lime , the julco of half a litno to a cup. They
are dllllcult to obtain , however , out of sea
son. Another thing to remember Is that the
feminine taste la changing. Many or
them prefer a light v/hlblty punch. They
won't take as many of them as u man , and
they won't take them an often , but a light
whisky punch lu to their taste , Just the
earn ? .
The punch that was furnished to the gen
tleman whose order was to exclude chum-
pagno and claret way made up as follows ,
the quantity being about suttlclent for three
drinks for a .party of twenty ; Four quaiu
of dry Catawba , two bottles of English club
soda , one-half pint of Curacoa , wins- glace
of St. Crolx rum , one-bait plat of Itmoii Juice- ,

The hotel wlno steward covered himself with
glory , an the ladles said they had never
tiiBt'Ml anything so perfectly delicious In
their lives.
Here IE < one which Is described as a dream ,
and there Is little doubt that , taken In suin-
clcnt quantity , It would causa almost any
one to dream. It Is a , dream to look upon ,
the rcJ remaining at the bottom and the
cream color on top. A glass of It , after
being rervcd , will retain Its freshness for
fully half an hour. Take ono pint of gin ,
any brand except Holland , but Plymouth
preferred ; one pint of cream ; three eggs.
Tlily will make a dozen clrlnkp. It should bo
remembered that when this is prepared In a
hotel or at a bar It Is ehakcn In shakers ,
which weakens It. Otherwise It would be
fully twice as strong. Prepare with Ice ,
which will both weaken It and Increase the
number of drinks.
Another , which needs only to bo known
to bo popular , and which ts easily prepared ,
Is called thcf "Fantalsle , " and lu composed of
equal parts of the following drink ? , according
to the number of drlnku desired for the
party : Cream Ivetto , Curacoa , cremo deroat ,
benedlctlne , lemon juice. Tills should bo
well shaken and strained.
Ono of the cardinal punches used by hotel
btewards , and furnished for parties , Is also
simply composed and easily mixed. Take
one- quart of cream , ono pint of crcmo do
rose , one-half pound of sugar , and add
dashes of brandy to suit. This makes one
of the most dcllcloiiFi of drinks , and , If tno
mixer Is not too- decidedly liberal In the
dashes of brandy , one that Is not too strong
for any party , ladles or gentlemen.
Hero Is a now champagne punch for a
party of twenty. It contains a great many
IngreJIenta , hut tt Is said to be ono of the
moat delightful eoclcty drinks ever con
cocted ; Three quarts champagne ; ono quart
nudeshclmer Hhlno ; ono quart Maraschino ;
ono quart brandy ; ono quart St. Crolx rum ;
two quarts Muilerla ; thrco quarts apolllnarls ;
one quart of drawn green tea ; thrco and one-
half pounds of powdered sugar ; ono pint of
our orange juice. This should be served
very cold. If mixed properly It can not bei
disappointing.
For tliot'o who want a regular whisky
punch , only made light , hero Is a prescription
that lu recommended by ono of the fuElilon-
able wine etowaida In the St , Loulu hotels :
One quart bottle Apolllnarls , ono dozen
lemons and three-quarters of ono pound
sugar , mixed ; sliced oranges to null ; ono
quart of whltky. This should be prepared
with line Ice In a bowl and ticrvod cold. It
too strong add a little water , though for the
average taste the Ice will weaken uulllclontly ,
A dellclouri Hlilnc- wine punch , for ten people
ple , two drinks each , IB made aa follows :
One quart Uhlnn wine ; ono pint Apolllnarla ;
rugar , very llttlo , probably two tablespoonfuls -
fuls ; dash of brandy. The juice of four or
llvo llinos gives a fineflavor. . Shake with
fine Ice In a bowl.
One of the oldest hotel wine stewards m
the city gives this general receipt : Half
pint lemon juice ; half pint fine Jamaica rum ;
half pint of strong green tea ; three quarts
of claret or champagne ; sugar according to
wlno used ; In serving ! use a small piece ol
the rind of a cucumber , to give flavor ; put
In Ice box and get good and cold ; place 4x1-
Incli pleco of the Ice In bowl , and In yorvlng
put tllce of orange In glass. For a cham
pagne punch the julco of limes In prcfcrablo
to lemon , Always remember that claret re
quired moro sweetening ) than other nine- .
Another approved claret punch Is made at
follows , for twenty drinks : One quart bottle
claret ; small bottle Apolllnarls ; ha"
sugar ; Curacao flavoring.
A favorite champagnu Is ono of the follow
ing Ingredients ; One quart champagne ; ono
pint Apolllnarls ; half doicn lumps cut-loaf
sugar ; wlno glasii of benetllctlno.
Ono of the punches that the ladles hear of ,
