HE next tlmo Madame Melba comes to Omaha she will probably bo
T entertained In a private homo while here at least that 1b Um
prima donna's wish.
Madame Melba, whom many critics consider the world's
greatest artist, and Mr. and Mrs. Kubellk spent yesterday In Omaha before
leaving for Minneapolis for their next concert. Tho great artist Invited
Miss Mary Munchhoff to lunch with her and to spend tho day, both having
been pupils of tho late Madame MarchcBl of Paris, whero they met often,
and were later entertained at tho home of tho late Prof. Upheus of Berlin,
Germany, tho court sculptor.
Tho latter part of the afternoon Madame Melba expressed. tho desire
"to got away from the city and out Into tho beautiful country, whero there
Is not so much dust.' So, together with Miss Munchhoff, Mrs. John A.
McShano and Mrs. A. V. Klnslor, they motored to the Country club and
through somo of tho parks. It was then that Madamo Melba said she
hoped to come to Omaha noxt year, and that sho would prefer staying In
a private home.
"Stay with mo next tlmo you come," said Mrs. McShano.
"Indeed, I will," replied' Madamo Melba enthusiastically, "and I
promise you will find that I am not so much troublo, either. Evoryono
seems ta think that a singer Is different from other people. Roally.I am
Just llko other people, and Hko tho same things that most pooplo do."
Miss Mary Munchhoff, who usually sponds part of each year abroad,
has been Invited by Madame Melba to visit her at her Paris homo.
