THE PEACE JUBILEE.
A RETROSPECT.

Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.
COLISEUM, BosToS, June 22.-The first
week Of the Worlds Peace Jubilee has
closed, and there is All opportunity now TO
Judge Of its success. In attendance, II has
not been all its managers hoped for; 81.
though the audiences hsvo been literally
Immense. The receipts for the week have
been about $4,000. The original outlay
was about $500, 900, and the orchestra and
foreign bands have to be paid. The for
eigners draw SIS per day from the time they
left until they arrive in Europe again, and
their transportation and living expenses.
The American players draw their trans
portation, and from IS to $40 per day
during the season. The solo artistes are
also paid heavily, but still the managers
hoped to meet the expenses without draw
ns on the guaranty fund.
AMUsIcAL SUCCESS.
In almost every respect the Jubilee has
been = musical success. If it has done no
more than make the public acquainted
with such composers and play ers n Strauss,
Abt, Bendil, Madame Leutner, and Ara.

greatest living dance writers and song
writers, the finest living representatives Of

greatest 'prima donna, who has ever
visited America, not even excepting Lind

have given music In u style such a. has

concert.room there 10 no comparison with
them. In finish, culture, perfection OF har.

bands far excel ours. OF the three, the
