All that is distinguished in Paris paid respect
to the grand old lady. Although the church
will contain 4,500 people, tickets were is
sued without limit and thousands of ticket
holders were excluded from the church. She
was eighty when she died, and there were
men in the throng who spoke of her only as
maiden though, for that matter, there was
very little girlishness about the sallow,
whimsical masquerader. To be sure, she was
lively, but only with the Eveliness of
caprice and deviltry. Even Iago is
brilliant sometimes. and Lucca is charming
when she drives everybody mad SO D@jazet
was prettily wicked. She succeeded because
she was not spirituelle, but spirited. But,
then, she was almost historical. She was
great in her way, and Paris adored her.
CHURCH AND STAGE.
Those of us who were able to get within
the church Witnessed an affecting service.
The music was furnished by performers from
the opera. The Church gave her its blessed
burial rites, and she was inferred at Pere la
Chaise, the grand cemetery of Paris, where,
among others who have gone before her. lie
Abelard and HeloYse. The pallbearers were

DON JUAN.
On Monday night Paris will be honored
with great event at the Opera House in the
representation of 'Don JUAN" when there
will appear Carvalho, Krauss, Gueymard and
Faure. For this occasion the cost of scenery
and ballet has been 100000 Everything is
perfect, and much excitement is manifested.
MUSIC AND THE CENTENNIAL
You will be glad to know that the artists who
are going over to the Centennial are not going
in spirit of mere venture and sensation.
Great pains are being taken for making the
musical event worthy Of the greatness of the
occasion. The result of q hundred years
of artistic culture in Europe will go to
render homage to hundred years of
republican growth. Now that Offenbach is
to appear in Philadelphia, others have de-
termined to go; and few who know Wagner
say that he will not be able to resist the
temptation. There are agents who have
already arrived in Paris to engage artists to
support Offenbach, whose heart is enlisted
in the venture. He will, in no sense, disap-
point you.
ENGAGEMENT OFF.
Zulma Bouffar has cancelled the New York
engagement.
OPERA AT THE LYRIoUE
The first opera to be given at the Theatre
Lyrique will be by Victor Joncieres in
"Dimitri" The libretto is by Henri
Bornier.
A venture in italian opera, at the Sale
Ventadour by Graziani, the tenor, began and
ended on Wednesday.
OLE BULL,
In his triumphal march through Europe, will
appear in concert at the Ventadour in the
middle of December; and Paris, which is
always Influenced by any hint of Bonaparte,
finds glamour In the romantic idea that the
straight-haired old Norwegian is to play for
the Khedive at the base Of the Pyramids.
Musicians tell how when he first came to
Paris he was so poor that he tried to drown
himself; but how he afterward earned his
first money here. We have some further
claim to greet him enthusiastically, because
his first wife was French lady.
