to retnunerate the school for the amount of
work it has done, aud is still doing, gratui-
tously, for the State, in preparing teachers
for her public schools, aud affording the
means of higher education TO many worthy
and promising youths, who would not other
wise have an opportunity of continuing their
studies.
When the teachers trained in this school
are little more advanced in age. which Is
the greatest obstacle in the way at present.
their services will be sought after, to take
charge of our public schools.

Mi. Jennings London letter. in the
New York World says As I wrote you
lately about the apparent decline of opera
in. England, it is only right that I should
record the sudden and unexpected revival
it has undergone at Her Majesty's theatre,
owing to the appearance Of new priima
donna, Hungarian named Etelka Ger
ster. She only sang last Thursday night
for the first time, and already her fortune
is made lucky woman! She has jump
ed from obscurity to popularity and great
wealth in less than week. Scarcely
anybody except q few musicians who
know everything, had heard WORD about
her, and when she came on the stage as
,Amina, il "Somnambula, I" she met with
no reception whatever. It was d very
different story before she got half through
her evenings work. The audience at
once recognized the fact that great star
had appeared, and twice more this week
has she had to repeat her performances,
and it may be safely said that her voice
is worth at'least $26O, 900 q year to her
while it lasts. Who wouldn't be prima
donna9 Madam Gerster is luckier than
an 0elIeSS OF TIC Jay. Inc moment 1t
was autographed over Europe that she had
made a great success, engagements poured
in upon her from Paris, st. Petersburg
and Vienna, Id which city she is to take
up the repertoires hitherto filed By Patti
ALI these arrangements were made in less
than three days. The romance writers
never imagined greater change in the
affairs of acomparativsly unknown young
woman.
