Madame Parepa.ROsa.

Thursday a cable despatch informed the pup
lie that Madame Parepa-Rosa was dangerous
ly ill. Yesterday this news was followed BY
the sad announcement of her death in Lon
don Tbursday night. Entirely unexpected on
this side of the Atlantic at least, the death of
this gifted singer is loss not only to the
musical world, among whose opponents she
shone pre- eminent, but to the many personal
friends, through technical acquaintance or
without, whom her kindly disposition and at
tractive sociabiity had made for her.
Mdme. Euphrosyne Parepa-Rosa, was born
in humble circumstances, of Wallachian par
entage, in Edinburg, in 1889, and while quite
young manifested signs of the musical talent
which was in after years to delight the world
She was educated by her mother, under whose
careful and loving tuition the talents inner ted
from the Seguin blood, in the parental veins,
were cultivated into fullness, the first fruits of
which were seen in her first appearance, which
was made in the island of Malta. Subsequent
~ she appeared in opera and in the concert
room in Naples, Rome, Florence, Madrid and
other capitals of Europe, and between the
years 1859 and 1866, sang during various sue
cessful engagements in London.
She then, fred by the verdict of success
which had greeted her in every appearance
abroad, determined to visit this country, a de-
termination at once carried into effect, and re-
sulting in ersuccessive appearance in America
in concerts, Italian and English opera.
Throughout the entire visit her success was
pronounced and the critics were almost unani-
