MUSICAL AND DRAMATIC.

Madame PRrepa-ROsa's Second Concert.
Last evenir g Madame Parepa. Rosa gave her
second and last concert at Concert Hall. A
large audience was in attendance, the artists
acquitted themselves in such manner as 10
secure the most enthusiastic applause, and the
only matter for regret was that the stay Of
Madame Rosa and her troupe in this city should
be 80 limited.
Madame Rosa is undoubtedly one Of the very
ffnest singers that has ever visited the United
States: but when we consider the 0trorc that
other vocailsts have at various times created.
Il IN O matter of some surprise that this lady's
career should, up to within comparatively
short time, have been only a partial success
Singers of not half her merits have Attracted
crowded houses everyw here, and have created
the utmost enthu siasn, while some OF Madame
Rosa's managers have scarcely been able TO
meet their expenses Madame Rosa's talents
have received the fullest recognition from the
press and musicians; and II is one OF the oddi-
ties OF public taste and appreciation that the
finest oantatrice In America should not be able
TO make fortunes for herself and her managers.
In n matter of this kind, however, skiiful man
sgement is often Of more Importance than
artistic ability; and without resortins to direct
puffery, a manager can 30 contrive to place the
name of the artiste under his charge before the
public that every one will be on the qni UtVo TO
near ner. We hppEonohu bhhe " . Wahb W
managerial tact Madame Rosa's failures to
achieve the most brilliant success is to be attrl
buted.
For year past Madame Ross's entertain
ments have been managed by Mr.. ID. De Vivo
and this gentleman has brought sbout mos
gratifying change In public sentiment. Tue
tour made by Madame Rosa and her troupe
through California and the other Pacific States
and overland to the shores of the Atlantic
again, was as brilliant aud successful as either
singer or manager could desire.
In San Francisco forty-one opera nights
were given, which receipted over $40 900; foi
seven concerts the receipts were $4,000. Be.
sides these three matinees were given. AT Ock'
land. two concerts were given; at ST. Jose, one
at stockton, one; at Sacramento City
two; at Maryville, one; at Grass Val'
ley, one; at Nevada, one; at Virgins
City, four; at Austin, one; at salt Lake City
two, for which $1,000 were received; at Omaha
two; at Council Bluffs, one; at Chicago, two. fo
which 5000 were received. At Madame Rosa
benefit In Chicago one gentleman paid $50
for q single ticket, and she was presented b,
her admirers with diamond cross worth $4,000
and q bracelet OF quartz set with diamond
valued at 500.
Mr. De Vivo will nov travel South with
Madame Rosa and her troupe, and there ID M
doubt but that he will be as successful rs he hs
been in the West and in New York and Pnila

The Emporia news. [volume] (Emporia, Kan.) 1859-1881, 1869-06-25

We have not seen THE EMrORIA NEWS for
two weeks, but by an extract we con-
clude Jake has purpOsely omitted US. In the
extract Jake makes the assertion that they have
discove cred some stone down their way, supe RI
to Junction City stone. Jake's honesty and
our charity compeis US to conclude that he
did not want us to see that whopper. As gold
is the standard of value, so Junction City stone
is the standard of stone, and 1t is as absurd
that any stone could be superior to Junction
City stone as IL is that any of the countless re-
representatives. Of value should excel gold.
Don't be rash, Jake.-Jancti0R Union.
We can inform our friend George that THE
NEWS has been mailed to the Union regularly
We know it is not pleasant to n Junction City
man to hear that any portion of the State beats
them on stone. Let person go to Burlingame
and say they have not the best cheese and coal
in Kansas, and he is in danger of-not exactly
the FIRE spoken of in the Scriptures, but Of get.
ting licked. So If anybody intimates that q
stone is found in the State superior to that OF
the celebrated quarries ut j. c.. then the Union
countenances an immediate and fierce war or
the aforesaid anybody. With a full knowledge
OF the degree of unpopularity it will give oul
paper at Junction City, and the danger of get
| ting soundly thrashed il we should ever q
| there-whieh we propose to do on the first traiT
/ from here to that point on the Neosho Vale,
road-we repeat the announcement that an ar
sticle of white magnetism limestone has beer
discovered near this place which throws tn
Junction City stone in the shade. There
George, put that in your pipe.'
