Yet the light of a whole life dies

Emma Juch's Approaching VISIT
Judging from impartial criticisms in
various cities, the Juch Opera Company,
which will appear in an extended repertoire
at the Grand Opera House, during the week
of November 16, is in good shape, musically
or vocally speaking, beyond doubt The
repertoire has been arranged as follows:
Monday, "Tannhauser''; Tuesday, "Fanst';
Wednesday, 'Iohengrin'; Friday, "Romeo
and Juliet" and "Cavalleria Rusticana =;
Saturday matinee "Il Trovatore,' and Sat
urday night, "The Bohemian Girl" The
popularity OF "Cavalleria Rusticana," L
should think, would lead to a change in the
repertoire before the sale of seats begins On
