Juch and the New Opera.

Tonight Emma Juch and her superb
company at the Seattle opera-house will
present "Cavalleria Rusticana" one of the
most pronounced operate successes of the
decade. 1t will be the distinct operate
event of the season and one in which all
the music lovers of the city have evinced
the deepest interest. The opera itself will
be preceded by the balcony scene of 6ou-
mods opera of Romeo and Juliet" In
both productions Miss Juch will sing. OF
all American prima donnas Miss Juch is
the most conscientious. She has been
gifted by nature with a voice of rare power
and beauty, and this, added to dramatic
ability of the highest order, makes. her
stand out in bold relief as one of the bright
est attractions of the contemporaneous
stage. At this time she IS at the very
zenith of her fame, and dominates each
performance by the force of striking per-
sonality and genius. Her voice is perme-
ated with that rare power of portrayal,
expressing as it does all the pas
sion and tenderness of the human soul.
She is supported by capable company
and well-trained chorus. The organiza-
ton carries its own special scenery. and
the operas are mounted in rich and APP
propriate manner. Tomorrow night
'Tannhauser," the sweetest of all the
Wagnerian opera-dramas, will be pre-
sented. The principals in the cast for to-
nights performance will be:

STORY OF THE BAKERS. STRIKE
An Anonymous Correspondent Lets in
tho Light on Some Secrets

A long letter from a member of the Sc
attic Bakers Union, which appeared in
the Bakers Journal, published in New
York, for April 2, tells the inside history
OF the strike of the Seattle bakers last
spring against the system of night work.
1t says that when the question of declar-
ing strike was under consideration in
the union, no member dared to take a
stand against it lest he should be Kissed
out OF the hall or rebuked as 'scab."
But the strike had not been on long when
some OF the members who had property on
which they We're making monthly pay
ments, pretended to be partners in some
OF the bakeries as pretext for getting
back to work. This element, the writer in
Inmates, he might forgive, but there were
others. he says, strong, able-bodied men,
without families, and perfectly able to find
employment at something else. temper
arlly at least. who soon appealed to the
union for aid, and when they received il.
some of them squandered it on the gaming
tables.
The result was that large number of
others became disguised and cared but
little whether the movement succeeded or
not. But it finally succeeded. and the
night work system was abolished. but the
union had become SO demoraIized in the
contest and through the misconduct of
some OF the members that before six
months had passed the bakers again lost
every concession they had gained.
The letter is we'll written and shows the
author to have some convictions. though
he does not show the courage to sign the
article. Unlike manner, he probably did
not have the courage to face the ieers of
his associates when the question of strik-
ing was under consideration, and no one.
