CALVE Ih htASSENErS NEW OPERA
Thus we may know and believe Mme Calve
has allied berseif to America and Americans
by ties of friendship and love with which
the American e'agle-on the dollar-has
nothing to dci. Her very windows. broad ,
low Venetian ones. with a multitude of little
cathedral panes , Jock out onto the statue

This young American singer. who made his

in the Trocadero , and who has nut yet

way among the French. already accepted by
the anists themseires as one.of them. and
a coming success.

brow. 'Mine Calve will bare nothIng now

he said. suddenly lifting his finger Everybody -

surely tinkling down the broad sIeic the

there came in full deed the rich melody of a
womans voice. singing some southern lulls.

The sight bkh met ow eyes was one net

been a ewana nest.

rose shade. Beside It on the table was the
scere of an opera. a t.ook ci verse and a
prayer book. Here was also a bottle of
smcdling salt and a. little jewel casket for
finger rings. . Just over this table banging

An artistic rosewood dresser of antigu
