Manager Scott, of the Metropolitan,
has perfected his plans for the summer
season, and few notes about the jean
ME Winston Opera company, which he
has engaged. may not be out of place.
MisssJeannie Winston, the celebrated
lyric artist, heads the organization.
Miss Winston is superb artist, and is
the most popular operate star that ever
appeared i'll Washington and Baltimore,
having made great success in portray
ing male roles, such as "Boccaccio."
''Priuce Methusalem," the king in '''rhC
Queens Lace Hankerchief." and "I.a
Perichole" in the opera by that name.
Miss Winston is the only lady who has
ever given satisfactory imperSonation
of the tenor role FRA Diavalo'' in
Auber's famous three-act operate
work.
The prima donna soprano is Miss
Alice Johnson, formerly of the McCaull
Opera company, then a season with the
Hess Grand and Light Opera company,
following as the leading soprano in the
great Chicago production of blue
beard" and season with the California
Opera company.
Miss Nettie Black, soubrette, is very
clever little artist, the possessOr of
very good meZZo-sOprano voice, and
charming in her acting. She has played
many successful engagements in opera.
comedy and drama. She is we'll known
in the large Eastern cities as the "Lit-
tie SOuDrette."
Helen harrington, the character con-
tralto, is we'll known in dramatic circles
as one of the best character old women
of the staGe, possessing good contraltO
voice which fits her most admirably for
this special line.
Charles Renwick, from the New York
Casino, where he has been engaged for
the PAST four years playing in the fol
lowing repertoire: "Yeoman of the
Guard, !" "Nadjy," "Brigands," Grand

quality of voice. His artistic rendering
of the parts assigned him has placed
him in the front rank of Metropolitan
artists.

THE CONVENTION CONCERT.
1t Is to BE One Of the Great Events
of the Year.

1t Is to Be One Of the Great Events
of the Year.
The Minneapolis convention concert
is an event in which the citizens of st.
Paul. as well as of the Northwest gen.
orally, are greatly interested. 1t
is to be the inaugural event
of the week of the Repub-
lican national convention, and the
dedication of the great exposition build
ing hall, pronounced by all as having no
equal i'll this country. The local COM
mittee having the matter in charge has
provided a programme for the evening
previous to the opening of the conyen-
ton, which will be every way
worthy of the time and place.
Musical talent from abroad, supple
mented by the best local talent, will
contribute the musical part of the pro-
gramme. Speeches by Mckinley and
Depew will be a decided feature. Then
the hall itself is drawing card of the
first magnitude. This will be the easiest
way, if not the only way, for the ma
Jority of the people to gain access to the
mammoth hall.
The musical programme is designed
to be thoroughly popular. There will
be some novelties in the way of an i'm
menSe course aud combined band,
which will unite in a popular song.
Weldon's Second Regiment band, of
Chicago, the official convention band.
will be on duty, and will be supple
mented by hundred or more must
clans.

has found the answer to the vexing
question. What shall we do with

Will"
The style of dress required for the
dances does not differ cOnspicuOusly
from the ordinary dinner dress, for
trained skirt lends itself gracefully to
the stately minuet, and the umbrella
cut is just the thing for skirt dancing.
Some girls wear a lot of lace
petticoats under the gown, and if un-
eXpectedly invited to dance just
gather up the outer dress. Carmencita

fashion, over their heads. always re-
membering to have such skirt lined
with silk in bright. pretty color. So
soft and fine are the skirts that they
can be worn even under the most cling
ing gown with 10 inconvenience.
Of course. if the great ladies in Lon
don dance thus in their drawing rooms
we must do it, too, and classes and pri-
Vate individuals have been taught all
through the season, though as yet there
has been no public display of the new
art except by children.
But though the ballet masters refuse
to disclose the names of their yelled
pupils who come to them in close car
riageS, it is an open secret that the girl
who can't kick a tambOurine off her
own head with the toe of her Slipper,
do the Carmencita bend and the Loie
Fuller whirl, besides giving Amelia
Glover points on high kicking, is not of
the MacAllister elect, and is quite un-
prepared for the summer campaign.
Perhaps the evolution of the solo
dance is really revolution brought
about by the unjust oppression of the
dancing man. The dancing man is, as
every one knows, a rare product, and
has been fawned upon by hostesses,
smiled upon by mothers with danceable
daughters, and adored by the danseuse
whom he has rescued from the monot-
Ony of wall-hoWer existence, un-
til he has become almost inso-
lent in regard to the dancing function.
He has absented himself on most trivial
preteXts from balls and cotillions; he
has come in inexcusably late; he has
stood about in the doorways with a
bored expression or assumed the air of
q martyr toward the partner he honored

The vocal soloists for the evening are
artists of high standing. OF special in
terest to Northwestern people will be
the appearance of Miss Olive Fremstadt,
a Minnesota girl who has won wide
fame all through the East by her
splendid contralto voice. New
York and Cincinnati papers
have wed with each other in saying
complimentary things about her. She
has taken the place of the great Shalcbi
in concert. and left no room for regret
with the audience. She has not been
heard here for some time, and there is
great curiosity among her many friends
hereabouts anent her coming.
The soprano sOloist will be Mrs. Mag
gle Nevin Dougherty, a Southern
singer, who makes her first bow to
Northern audience. She has high rep
ntation all over the South for her artis-
Tie vocallzation, and will doubtless cap
tiyate the convention hall assemblage.

William Haworth's new pastoral
comedv-d drama, to be given to the pub
lie for the first time Monday evening,
the 9th prox., was written especially for
Miss Annie Lewis. 1t will be presented
by the lady named in connection with
Lifts stock company, selected for the
summer season in this city. The char
acter which Miss Lewis will assume is
known as Cinders, an ignorant
child of nature, diamond in the
rough. The first act is given
over to the development of the plot of
the play; the second act is said to be all
comedy, and shows many of the char
acteristics of the down-EaSt Yankee IN
manners, dress and peculiarities of ex-
preston. The heroine, Cinders, in this
act becomes the wife of the hero of the
play. The third act shows the happy

ATTACKED BY LION.
Ranchman John Wilson's Excit-
ing Battle for Life in His Barn


ing Battle for Life in His Barn
Yard.
The mountain lions are making life
burden to the ranchmen, and in some
locations it is decidedly dangerous to
be in the open air after night fall.
They have become so bold that to
90 about unarmed is an indiscre-
ton that few are guilty of even in
broad daylight, and the majority of
ranchers are compelled to guard their
stock night and day, says Colo
RADIO correspondent of the st. Louis Re-
public. The lions are vicious in the eX-
treme, being nearly starved to death,
and, instead of turning tail and scam
pering off to the mountains. as is gener-
ally the case when approached In broad
daylight. they not only stand their
ground. but are always on the offensive.
A few days ago John Wilson, who
resides on Brush creek. about six miles
below Aspen. was hooking up his team
preparatory to bringing load of grain
to Aspen, when his attention was at
tracted to large lion crOuched at the
foot of hayStack which stood in the
barnyard, and within about ten feet of
him. He states that the animal was
preparing to spring upon him or the
team, and the sight made his hair stand
and blood run cold. He pulled revol-
yer, OF which he had two in his belt,
and fired, but owing to his sudden
fright the aim was not accurate, and the
ball passed over the beast. This so
angered the lion that it Immediately
sprang upon Mr.. Wilson. bearing him to
the earth with terrific force.
Fortunately the firing OF the revolver
tn hic oil "a wv
came tearing into the yard just as the
ferocious beast sprung upon their
master, and they set upon the animal,
attracting it's attention before it had
time to fasten its teeth in the flesh OF
the prOstrate man. Then there was con-
glomeratiOn of man, dogs and lion for
few seconds that would be hard to de-
scribe. MIR. Wilson soon succeeded in
extricating himself from the dangerous
predicament, and, watching his chance,
fired another shot, striking the beast
over the temple, but apparently injur-
ing it but slightly, and the fight be.
tween the dogs and his lionshlp waXed
warmer.
Another shot was impossible now, for
fear of killing one or both OF the dogs.
Mrs. Wilson appeared Oh the scene at
this juncture, armed with Winchester
rifle, but was unable to bring it into use
for the same reason. Wilson finally
grabbed up neck-yoke and succeeded
in crushing in the skull of the lion by
few well-directed blows.
The beast was found to be an old fell
low, ,Imeasuriag eight feetfrom the point
of his nose to the tip of his tail. He
was so poor that only skin and bones
remained. The carcass was thrown Oh
the load of grain and brought to town,
where it attracted large amount of at
tentiOn, owing to its enormous size.
