her name among tho prizo winners. The
young lady Is Miss Alice Andrsesen, who,
during the past year has been In attendan co
at Laseii seminary, Auourndalc, near Bos-
Ton. In speaking OF the exercises The
Boston Advertiser says:
Tho prize drill at Lasell seminary

Signor August Fusco, who has opened q
school 81 music on the seventh floor of TIE
BEE buLding, comes to Omaha with an envi-
aote reputation as teacher Of the true Ital.
ian method of singing. Nine. Adelina Patti
endorses him strongly as a musician and
successful teacher of il bel canto, and the
number 0f pupils Sgnor Fusco has placed on
the operatic stage speaks well for his qualifi-
cations as an instructor Of the voice. Among
the most successful of his pupils are Miss
Helen Won Doenhof formerly with Theodore
Thomas, later with the Bostonians Miss
Alice varona with the Wilbur Opera COM
pany; Miss Mamie Allen of the same com
pany; Miss Eva Jacobs, now with the Casino
company. New YORK; Miss Mary Zuch, for
merly with the Strabosch Opera company,
anu the late Emma Abbott took several
courses with Mr., Fusco. Omaha is fortunate
In having so eminent singing master, es-
pecally one who teaches the methods that
have made PATHS voice the peer OF any in
the world, and Mr.. Fusco deserves pro-
nounced success In his new field Of labor.

BILE IN his efforts to make ii the best known
of Brombcrg, Prussia, born December
30, 1852. In 1868 he came to Amer
ica and commenced what has since beer
very active business career as a watch
maker in New York. In 1869 he started for
Omaha, where his brother. Max Meyer, had
previously engaged In business. While
enroute Mr. Meyer had an opportunity to
form his first impressions OF an American
railroad disaster, his train being wrecked
near Elmira. In this wreck Mr.. Moritz
Meyer was injured about the head, as the
result OF which he almost lost the uso Of an
eye. He entered the employ of his brother,
Max Meyer, who was then in the cigar bust
ness, and renamed here until 1875 when the
Black Hills gold discoveries aroused In Mr..
Meyer determination TO strike out for him
self. locating at Cheyenne. then IN the
midst OF n great boom. He embarked
IN the cigar business In Cheyenne, and in the
three years he was resident Of the Wyom-
ing capital. made snug sum Of money
which later he invested with Mr.. Max
Meyer in the wholesale and retail cigar busi-
ness. Since then no has been made secretary
ind treasurer of Max Meyer u Bro iewelry
and music company In addition to retaining
his partnership In tho cigar business. An
active, energetic business man, he combines
social qualities which have given him great
prestlge in managing tho affairs of the club.
But the success OF the club Is as much due
to Mr. Ike New, the popular secretary, ms to
any one. He is New Yorker by birth,
born In 1857. After serving an apprentice
ship as CLERK in q clothing store Mr.. New
came to Omaha In 1877, engaging In the

ENDURANCE.

How much the heart may bear, and yet not
break!
How much the flesh may suffer and not die!
1 question much if any pain or ache
of soul or body brings our end more nigh;
Death chooses his own time; till that is worn
All evils may be borne.
We shrink and shudder at the surgeons knife,
Each nerve recoiling from the cruel steel,
Whese dye seems searching for the CULVER
ing life;
Yet know though, sense the bitter pangs
reveal
That still, although the trembling flesh be
torn,
This also can be borne
We see n sorrow rising in way,
And try to fee from the approaching i'll;
We see some small escape-we weep and pray;
But when the blow falls, then our hearts are
still
y ct that the pain is of it's sharpness shorn &,
But then. it can be borne.
We wind our life about another life,
We hold it closer, dearer than our own:
anon it faints and falls in deadly strife,
Leaving stunned, and stricken, and alone.
This also can be borne.
Behold, we live through all things, famine
trust,
Bereavement, pain; ell grief and misery,
All woe and sorrow; life infiicts its worst
On soul ana body, but we cannot die,
Though we be sick and tired, and faint, and
worn;
TOr al things can he horne.
