she Was Queen of the Concert Room
The death of Carlotta Patti, in Paris,
few days ago, removes from the world one
OF its best Known and sweetest singers.
Queen Victoria once said that never had
any other voice SO pleased and charmed
her. 1t was a marvellous volce-a Gear So
prano, sweet and full, and wonderfully
tiexihle Its compass was from C below
the treble staff to & sharp in alt and the
last named note she took without hesitation,
and in such superb manner as to elicit
the unbounded applause of her audi
euces. She shone more brightly
in the concert room, but sometimes she an
peared in opera, and she had uadoubted
talent in that direction. An accident sus-
tanned in her childhood caused her to limp
| notlceably, and on this account she rarely
appeared upon the operate stage During
the civil war in this country, however, when
| only the strongest attractions could secure
the attention Of the public, she was pre-
vailed upon to sing in opera. The manager
was in financial straits. He had found no
attraction that drew good houses. He
presented his case to Carlotta Patti, SAYING
| that unless she accepted the offer which he
made her, he would be financially ruined.
Mile. Patti overcame her objections,
achieved a musical triumph, and placed the
manager upon a firm financial footing.
The fact that her lameness caused her to
avoid the operate stage, as rule, shows
that she was sensitive, and it is related of
her that once, when she was announced to
appear in European city as 1.-The sister Of
Adelina Patti" she promptly cancelled the
engagement and wrote the editor a
sharp note. Many Of her admirers
declared that her voice was superior to her
sisters. She was an excellent pianist, and
would have gained distinction in that kind
of instrumental music if she ad adhered to
her original plans. Recently she had spent
much of her time in Paris where she taught
vocal music, although she was wealthy.
Mile. PATHS last American tour was in
the season Of 1879-'S0 There are thousands
Of Americans who have been thrilled by her
vocal powers, and who heard with regret
the other day that she was dead

| In the course Of his address to thu graduatin p
class of yale Law school this week, Chaupcev
| NJ DePew remarked: The gifts Of men are
infinite in character and degree, but the rarest
| is the FACULTY for honest work Persistent and
| intelligent industry will command recognition
| Some men are the first scholars of their class
| in colleges and maryes of memory in the law
| school, who are never heard of afterwards
| They are deficient in gray matter and sense
| and should find their places outside the liberal
| professions before their careers are hopelessly
| ruined. | sometimes think that there is no
| limit to what man can do-if the idle hours
| usually given TO waiting for somebody or some
thing, to worthless gossip, to the social glass Mt
| the club in the afternoon which units hin for
| work in the evening, and to the faScnariny
| luxury of empty medicines, were hailed as
special gifts of Providence to be treasured and
| used for study "
| A MOUNTAIN FOREST has more functions than
most people have considered, according to an
article in the Century. 1t covers the hills with
a vast mat or network of living root fbers, and
holds in place the ever-accumulating mass of
mould and decom osing We etable matter
which aosoros and retains the wat5r of the rain
III ana tne melting SHOWS Such forest is a
| great sponge, which receives all the water thai
| falls on the mountains, and allows it to
escape gradually so as to main
tain the steady flow Of the rivers which it feeds
| A forest IS thus natural reservoir for the
storage and distribution of the water which falls
upon it; and, it is far more efficient as well as
| TAR more economical, than any system of arti-
fetal storage reservoirs that can be substituted
| for 1t. If the forest is removed this mightv
| sponge is destroyed, and there is then NOTHING
| to perform its function of holding back the
| water, which wi rush down in overwhelming
| floods and torrents The first thing to be noted
is that the water will thus all run away at once
at a time when but little of it is wanted ma
there will be little or none of it left for the sea
| son when it is most needed.

As whole. the team is far from beingi Ia perfect
condition. McCung's shoulder is very painful,
and ho will probably not be able to play In to-
morrow's game. as he has not been able to
sleep the last two nights. Billy Rhodes is not
more than half In his usual form, but as he
has become famous for his sand, he will
doubtless play until they have to carry
him of the field. Josh Hartwel has bad leg
and spraned wrist Gill himself has sore
ankle. which has been giving him considerable
trouble recently. Ben Morrison has also been
wearing bandagos for some time. and has not
been OF crutches more than two weeks, and
tho condition OF the substitutes 10 even worse
Harry Graves is the only man to take Wurlem-
burg's place should the latter get hurt while
Graves has not iuliy recovered from the torri-
Bile blow he got on the back OF the head In the the

rush line and he is hardly able to get AROUND
