; Tnere is no element in our musical activity
r standing upon a higher or purer plane of art
than these same chamber music recitals. No

A copyrighted cablegram from London says
that Gilbert and Sullivan's new opera, "The
Gondoliers, or the King of Barataria," was
' produced last nijht at the Savoy, and was a
' success from start to finish. It is a long time
since these collaborators have brought out so
good a piece of work. Certainly it Is
the best since the Mikado, and may
eten be entitled to rank with their
first successes. The operetta was admirably
Etaeed, and, though It was the 'first night, al
most perfectly presented. Perhaps in no other
of the Gilbert and Sullivan series are there so
many good parts, all the leading members or
the company being cast In the roles they conld
handle best The honors of the evening were
divided between Geraldine Glmar, Jessie Bond,
the two Contadines. and Courtlce rounds and
Butland Barrington, the Gondoliers, though
.Frank Wvatt as the Duke of Plazalcro, and
Sennv as t)on Alhambra del Bolero, the chief
inquisitor, were entitled to almost equal con
sideration. The plot has already been outlined
in THE Dispatch. The music is very light
and "catchy," and is certain to be in the streets
'before the piece is played a week. The libretto
' is' In Gilbert's best manner. One song describes
a democratic Utopia thus:
- Lord Chancellors were cheap as 6prata, .
"" And Bishops in their shovel nati were plentiful as
tabby cats.
In point of fact too many ambassadors cropped
up like hay.
Prime Ministers and such as they
Grew like asraragus In May.
Ann Antes were three a penny.
On every side field marshals gleamed.
Small beer were lords lieutenant deemed;
"With Admirals the ocean teemed
All round his wide dominions.
And part leaders you might meet
In twos and threes in every street,
JUalntalnine with no little beat.
Their various opinions.
A finished Gilbertian touch too is in the idea
of the king's foster mother being compelled to
wait IS minutes for the inquisitorin the torture
chamber and supplied with the illustrated
papers, in order that time may not hang too
heavy. All the dialogue in fact Is as bright
and sparkling as the music, and Gilbert and
Sullivan have put the amusement loving
world trader additional obligation.
"
Mrs. Patti-NicoUnl with ber new auburn
-y 'lair and her husband has come over the sea
and rone to Chicaco. where to-morrow evening
she will help President Harrison inaugurate
the big Auditorium and the next night help
Henry E. Abbey to open his big Italian opera
season. Tamagno, the great Italian tenor. Al
banl and a host of others are to add their
efforts in the latter opera troupe.
-Should they come to Pittsburg it would take
about a 10 scale of prices in our largest theater.
The money would be forthcoming beyond a
doubt, but ma .y would-be auditors would have
to stay at home. When are we to have that
music hall, big enough to admit the great
music-loving public at reasonable prices and
yet pay for the most elaboiate performanceT
It is said that we will have to miss hearing
one of Von Buelow's 20 American concerts
next spring for lack of a suitable, large hall.
Yet the managers should not at'.ach too much
importance to Pittsburg's deficiency In this re
spect. It Is amply made up in other respects
i solar at least as the managers need care abont
it. We have comparatively so few high-class
musical attractions that when one docs come
it can draw upon a larger fund than
would otherwise be the case. There is plenty
of money here, and the sturdy old town is in
the course of an artistic awakening that, makes
it very liberal toward a musical attraction with
a big enough came. The experience of late
years has shown beyond peradventure that such
an attraction asaPattioraVon Buelow can
fill any hall we have at any prices at all within
reason.
Sarasate and D' Albert can doubtless do the
same thing, if they come, as is rumored Janu
ary the 13th being named as the probable date.
Nothing has been beard of their coming at
Klebers .or by Mr. Gittings, where the news
would be likely to come early. It is much to
be hoped that the rumor will prove to be well
founded. Eugene D' Albert may safely be
termed the greatest musical genius now in the
country, and Pablo de Sarasate is uot very far

The Pennsylvania State Music Teachers'- As
sociation is preparing for its first annual meet
ing (at Philadelphia, December 26, 27 and 28)
with an energy and enterprise that assure suc
cess. The roll of members from this end of the

The Balmoral Choir, a body ot Scotch sing
ers of International fame, has been engaged by
the Waverly Society, of this city, for a concert
at Old City Han on the third evening of next
year..
Foe the Osborne-Mitchell wedding at Frank

be furnished by Mr. Will H. CuUis' boy choir
from Oil City, and Gernert's Orchestra from
Pittsburg.
rJxrBma the special services at St. Agnes B
C. Church next Sunday morning; Gounod's
"Hesse Solennelle" will be given by the chorus
' choir under the direction of Mr. K. Cartus,-aud
with the assistance of Miss Grace Miller, Miss
Caroline Echmertz, Mr. Harry B. Brockett and
-18 players from Gernert's Orchestra,
Eeckst letters from Mr. John Donne!! Baire
to his Pittsburg relatives betray a longing for
his native land that may ere long bring him
back again from England. This time it will
probably mean the permanent location at some
1 Cis-AtlantlB city or PitUburg's sometime
favorite basso proftmdo. Mr. Balfe made his
first 'appearance in opera not long since and
".; scored a most gratifying aaccess.
Sv jferA BRUiiAKT wind-up for the pretest season .
is assured in the fact that the Mosart Club has
executed a contract with Manager 0. A. Ellis,
for the assistance of the Boston Symphony
Orchestra at the two last concerts ot the club,
on May 19 and 20. This means that the extra
ordinary pledges for this season made by the
Mozart Club to its associate members will be
carried out in the most satisfactory manner. It
is not too late for more associates to subscribe,
and still get more for their 10 than heretofore.
Little Otto Heoske, not being the first
to arrive, has naturally made less of a sensation
than did his forerunner, Josie Hoffmann, but
the thonghtful critics are quite unanimous in
rating bis plavlng as of higher musical value
and as being just about as remarkable in point
of technique as that of the mueh-feted Josl.
A point in Otto's favor is that he does not try
to conduct an orchestra or compose original
tunes for newspaper publication. When he
comes to swing around the circle, we will be
glad to hear him here in.Pittsbnrg.
Miss Agnes HTrsmraTOir, a contralto well
remembered here, and who has made such an
enormous success as Paul Jbnet in London,
now has the bonor of having three distin
guished men engaged in constructing a new
operetta for her especial nse. Btsson is writing
the libretto, and Planqnette tho. mnsic, and
Burnand, the editor or Punch, Is putting Bls
son's French into English. Miss Huntington
has lust signed a new lease with the Prince ot
Wales Theater at a salary said to be the high
est ever paid in the annals ot comic opera in
London.
Bismaeck does not like music It is said
that he has not attended the opera more than a
dozen times in all bis life, and that since 1S65
he has been there only twice: in 1879 to the gala
performance in honor to the golden wedding of
Emneror William L. and in October, this year,
on the occasion oi the visit of Alexander HL,
Uzar or Russia, to Berlin. The Prince Chan
cellor once said to the painter, Lenbacb, that
be had neither ear nor inclination for music,
and that he preferred the music made by an
Italian organ-grinder, or by s peasant playing
the accordeon to that of any opera in exist
ence. Ex.
According to a paragrapher in the Phila
delphia Musical Journal, "Patti, the divine
singer, receives the largest wages ever paid to
an artist human or divine. She is paid 5,500
every night she sings in the Albert Hall in
London. Even with this and the expenditure
of $3,000 for each concert ber managers are able
to show a profit of from S2,000 to $3,000 per
night. Patti has earned by ber own exertions
more money than any five women that ever
lived on the face or this earth. Her receipts
since she began singing in public, 25 years ago,
cannot be much short or $3,000,000, and she has
several years of profitable farewelling ahead of
her."
The Boston Quintet Club has been secured
by Mr. J. H. Gittings for a chamber music re
cital at the Pennsylvania Female College next
Friday evening. The club comprises Messrs.
John F. Rhodes and Paul Mende, violins;
Adolph Burose, flute and viola: A. Becker,
viola and 'cello, and Louis Blumenberg, 'cello.
Tho assisting soprano this season is Miss Annie
Carpenter. Since this club was organized by Mr.
Blumenberg, the brilliant 'cello player, two or
three years ago it bas attained a large measure
of success through the country, quite dividing
the suffrages once given to the Mendelssohn
Quintet Club, of which it may be regarded
as an offshoot.
In looking over the announcements for the
coming musical season abroad, nothing is more
noteworthy than the manner in which Wagner
is invading the opera houses of all European
countries. Italy's leading opera house, the
Scala, will open with "Die Meisterslnger."
Spain will hear theNlbelung trilogy, and so
will Copenhagen under the direction of Svend
sen. At Brussels 'Tristan" and "Sieg
fried" are to be produced in French, and
Pesth is to have several of Wagner's later
works in a Hungarian version. And In New
York, of course, Wagner will be the chief at
traction or the opera season, as usual. It is
now time for Mr. Rowbotham or some other
"crank." to come forward and repeat the an
nual assertion that "Wagnertsm has had its
Cay." Musical Courier.
Mes. Schaabschhxot under hernewnams,
Rosa Linde, seems to have added materially to
ber already high reputation in the city of her
former residence by the artistic appendix she
added to the Levy programme. If she had no
prior casus belli with Levy & Co., she would
have one in the fact that since she left they
have gone on with another contralto, but with
the same circulars, lithographs, programmes,
etc, representing to the public that it is Mme.
Rosa Linde who is still assuming that part In
one Ohio town the writer last week saw the
windows adorned with the face that is so well
known here, and heard music lovers discussing
the merits of Rosa Linde's singing, which they
supposed they bad been listening to in the Levy
concert there on November 26. This is a rank
deception of the public and an insult to two
artistes that Jules Levy ought to be ashamed
ot
The Allegheny Musical Association will
make Us first public appearance In a concert
for the benefit ot the Allegheny General Hos
pital, to be given in tho Fourth U. P. Church,
Arch street and Montgomery avenue, on Tues
day evening or this week. Mr. W. A. Lafferty
will conduct; the chorus will number about 100
voices and the orchestra about 40 plavers, half
of them amateurs that formerly belonged to
the Zltterbart Orchestra, and have been got to
gether for the occasion by Mr. Coblentz. The
choral numbers will be Sir Julius Benedict's
short cantata "Legend of St, Cecilia" (text by
Henry F. Chorley) and 8ehubert's "Song of
Miriam" for soprano solo and chorus. The
soloists will be Mrs. It C. Webster, Mrs. F. W.
Kiefer, Mr. Beveridge Webster, Mr. John
Gernert and Mr. Charles F. Cooper.- Interest
in the debut of the chorus so auspiciously or
ganized a year or so ago combined with a
charitable disposition toward the worthy bene
ficiary should combine to make this occasion
more than ordinarily successful.

Chronic Catarrh
Cannot be cured by local, applications. It is a
constitutional diseaso and requires a constitu
tional remedr like Hood's Sarsaparilia, which,
working through the blood, eradicates the im
purity which causes and promotes the disease,
and soon effects a permanent cure. At the
same time Hood's Sarsaparilia builds up the
whole system, and makes you feel renewed in
strength and health. Be sure to get Hood's.
"1 suffered severely from chronic catarrh
arising from impure blood. It became very
bad, causing soreness of the bronchial tube,
and a troublesome cough, which gave great
anxiety to my friends and myself, as two
brothers died from bronchial consumption. I
tried many medicines, but received no benefit.
I was at last induced to try Hood's Sarsaparilia,
and I am not the same man in health or1 feel
ings. My catarrh is cured, my throat is en
tirely well, and a dyspepsia- trouble, with sick
headache, have all disappeared." E. M. Lik.

You can get the corset
that, more than any other,
gives a woman a happy face,
you can wear it two or three
