Of Mme. Steinuacb-Jalins we are told that
she becan her prolessional career singing sou
brctte parts in tbc Opera at Frankfort-on-the-ilain.
(She next appeared in Danzig, where
her remarkable gifts attracted attention, and
brought ber an engagement at the Leipzig
Stadt Theater. Here she soon became the
leading dramatic soprano, and her career was
one of extraordinary success. Amon; her
more notable trinmnhs were the roles of Elsa
in "Lohengrin." Senta in Flying Dutchman."
Gcnoveva, va In "Die Jleistersinger," and
jignes in "Freischuetz," Since Mr. Nikisch
brought her to this country to participate in
tbe orchestra's present extended tour, the
voice of our best critics has amply indorsed
her groning European reputation.
The ninth season of the Boston Symphony
Orchestra's regular concerts at Music Hall,
which closed a fortnight ago, has been the
most successful in its history. The new con
ductor. Sir. Arthur Nikisch, from Lclpzic. has
more than warranted bis selection for this im
portant post. He has wholly captivated the
critics o! me nun. in spue oi prejudices at the
commencement of his wore The practical re
sults of the season's eiforts may readily be
gathered lrom the following table from official
sources:
The number who hive attended the re
hearsals on admission tickets at an
expense of 23 cents is 20.9S5
Fire hundred and eight season tickets
for rehearsals were sold at 7 0, mak
ing the number vino attended at an
expense of S1J4 cents 12,192
Jsiue hundred and seventfour season
tickets for the evening concerts were
sold at S7 50, making attendance at 31J
cents 23,376
The number who have attended tbe
evening concerts on admission tickets
at 50 cents 3,697
Tote', number who have beard the or
chestra at an expense of 50 cents or less 60,250
Add to this tbe number who bought the
higher priced tickets at auction 1,423
season tickets for each series 1.123X1S. 68.304
Admission and cheap season 60.250
Total attendance regular perform
ances 12S.551
Add again the number who attended the
threo young people's matinees (6,900)
and the total number who have beard
the orchestra is by a close estimate.. ..135,451
Think of it: Sixty thousand persons hearing
the very best music performed In a manner no
where excelled at an expense of 50 cents or
lets.
Those who have sneered at Mr. Hicginton's
wonderfully liberal patronage of the orchestra,
as a fad, indulged In for the delectation of an
aristocratic clique, will have bard work to find
snch another instance of musical evangelism
for tbe masses.
De Pachman's success in his Chopin recital
on Friday evening was, indeed, phenomenal.
The clearest manifestations of interest and de
light were made throughout the audience from
first to last, and the sober, second thought of
the connoisseurs, as evidenced in many conver
sations yesterday, is marvellously free from the
usual tendency to reverse the popular verdict.
There is some chance of his returning here
after tho three more concerts that complete
bis present tour. If so. there should be small
doubt of a crowded bense. Let us hope it mil
be so, if only to remunerate Air. Gittlngs for
his large-hearted labors andfrequent pecuniary
losses"! n bringing to our city the greatest pianists
that come into A nerica. Air. Gittings has. at
least, a large meed of popular gratitude, well
earned and duly accorded.

study under the celebrated Madame Alvensle

That gifted and energetic laborer in tbe
country's musical vineyard, Mrs. Jeannette M
Tbnrber, not content with the arduous duties
she has assumed in managing the National
Conservatory of Music, is now seeking to get a
great national music hall built in Washington,
and otherwise to get official circles interested
in the good cause. The intimation is plainly
given that encouragement In this direction
might cause tbe transfer of ber national musical
enterprises to the national capital. Good for
Airs. Tbnrber! If she should be instrumental
in getting our Government at some future time
to emulate the patronage given by foreign ad
ministrations to the cause of music for the na
tion, she wdl have done an inestimable service
to art.
This weeek the most Interest centers in the
first concert of the Zltterbart Orchestra, which
is to be given at Old City Hall on Thursday
evening. The purely orchestral numbers will
be the new overture, "Domitian," MS., by
Mr. Fidelis Zitterbart, Jr., and the same home

ished). Conductor and Composer Zitterbart

Helcne Zitterbart, sopranos, Mr. Harry B.
Brockett, tenor, and Mr. Chas. F. Cooper,
'cello, will be heard in other solo numbers,
making altogether a concert of exceptional
promise.
The Handel Musical Association, of Alle
gheny, will give its last concert this season on
Juno 3, at Carnegie Hall. The principal
choral work on the miscellaneous programme
will be G. W. Chadwick's ballad for chorus and
orchestra, "Lovely Rosabelle," which will be

orchestra. Mrs. Frank Brocklebank and Mr.
HarryJJ. Brockett are to be the local soloists;
tbe foreigners will be Miss Clementina do
Vere, the soprano, who is now riding the crest
of popularity's wave in New York and else
where, and "Air. George F, Whiting, one of the

wbo directs this chorus. Miss de Vere will

HE KNEW t'.Hirv ELLIOT,
A Rntber Strange Thine Occurs nt tbe

Yesterday afternoon a man named James
K. Park, 55 or 56 years old, who followed
the employment of a canvasser, died at the
Homeopathic Hospital from pleurisy.
Park was admitted to the hospital in
March and very little is known of him. The
man told the hospital authorities that he
knew Chief Elliot of the Department of
Charities, but Mr. Elliot after looking at
him could not tell who he was and thinks
he is a stranger in this city. The authori
ties are anxious to find his relatives.

Creates
An Appetite
There is nothing for whlcb we recommend
Hood's Sarsaparilla with greater confidence
than for loss of appetite, indigestion, sick head
ache and other troubles of dyspeptic nature.
In tbe most natural way this medicine gently
tones the stomach, assists digestion, and makes
one feel "real hungry." Ladies in delicate
health, or very dainty and particular at meals,
after taking Hood's Sarsaparilla a few days,
find themselves longing lor and eating the
plainest food with unexpected relish and satis
faction. Try it.

PHCNIX ASSURANCE CO.,
of London.
ESTABLISHED IN AMERICA IN 1808.
fHE Phoenix Assurance Company of London,
- purely a fire office, commenced business
January 17, 1782, at a time when Bucli a thlnpr as
Limited Liability was unknown. The
. "Phoenix" started on its great career, and soon
met with such distinguished approbation
tbronghout the Old World as to cause frequent
application to be made to it, for insurance, in
America; whereby it was induced to enlarge its
snbere by coming to the United States. It was
thus able to promote tbe bapplnesa of many
more families and give security to a large num-
oer oi commercial transactions.
Tbe "Phccnii" was tbe first foreign insur
ance corqpany to establish agencies in the
United States. It therefore has the credit of
creating the fire Insurance agency system of
the globe.
Its past history shows it to have paid out to
sufferers over
$82,000,000,
and Its present Assets amount to over
S7,5O0,000;
and of this rearly
S2,000,000
are held by the United States branch office for
tbe exclusive protection of Its policy holders
in this couotrr. Need we look beyond this fact
for solid indemnity in fire insurance?

BANKRUPTCY.
Worse than bankruptcy is a constitution
broken down by disease. If It is the result of
fast living, the excessive use of whisky, the in
judicious use of mercury, exposure In mias
matic regions or sedentary habit. Dr. Tutt's
Pills will restore you to health, more to be de
sired than gold.
Patriotic Desire.
Dr. C. L. Mitchell, Fort Meade, Fla., writes:
"I tbink you would confer a blessing on the
Eeople in this country by establishing an agencv
ere for Tutt's Pills. Having tested them, I
know tbelr superiority, and want to see them
used instead of the worthless compounds that
are sold in tbls country."

by your house just as much as by your dress. Keep it neat tzncZ
clean and your reputation will shine. Neglect it and your good "

some; it is worth all it costs, especially if you reduce the outlay of
time and strength by using SAFOLIO.
APPLIED ZOOLOGY
W. M. LAIRD'S.
As the MAMMOTH, in pre-hlstorio times, exceeded in bulk all
other forms of contemporary life, so in present times LAIRD'S
MAMMOTH SHOE STORES surpass all competitors In num-
ber, quantity and quality of goods, but especially In the mar
velous bargains presented at all tlmea
As the ALLIGATOR is the most formidable among sauriana
swarming in American waters, so do Shoes, at LAIRD'S, made
from Alligator hides, defy wear and water as perfectly as when
it was originally fastened upon the back of his Gaitership.
Attention is called next to the largest Marsupial, the Austra
lian KANGAROO, famous for his jumping abilities. Shoes from
this kind of hide are especially adapted for Spring-wear.
The distinguished member of the genus capricornus com
monly known as DONGOLA GOAT, furnishes fine, soft skina
for lady tourists; Shoes especially adapted for scaling moun
tains and high peaks.
In this business, ad in others, the most useful are the common,
everyday domestic animals, such as Porkers, Veal Calves. Cows
and Horses, who furnish from their much enduring hides the
most substantial, reliable, pliable and all-round wearing foot
gear for people of all ages and feet of all sizes.
The difference between seeing curious and interesting objects
at Museums and these wonders of APPLIED ZOOLOGY AT
LAIRD'S is, that it costs you money at the former, while you
can save much money by visiting the latter.
