THE CALHOUN oHERA COMPANY

Manager Skunk, E. d. Shaw and #. G.
Conrad are all in the city arranging for
the near appearance of the Calhoun Opera
Company which will be seen at the Los
Angeles Theater this year, vastly improved
and strengthened.
n The repertory will consist OF the ster-
ling works, Amorita by Ozebulka and
The Black Huzzar, by Milloecker
The company consists almost entirely of
new people. Miss Laura Willard, prima
donna soprano, and Mr.. Douglas Flint,
the basso-comique are all that are left of
the old association as it was seen here
last year. The new people are all well
known leaders in their line, including the
baritone, Mr.. T. J. Rowan, ir., son of ex-
Mayor Rowan, who has achieved most
notable success since he became a profess
sional about a year ago.
This company. though less than three
, years old, has already taken front rank
among the lyric organizations of America.
During the life of Emma Abbott her
annual appearance was anNiously antici-

company the Calhoun Opera Company
was organized. and it's cordial reception
abundantly testiiies to the wisdom of the
management and the universal interest in
this form of entertainment.
The principals and chorus have been
selected with a view to artistic lyrical
unity. The operas will be superbly

Caesar Thomson expects to leave for
Europe in early March. His success in
Boston was so enormous that he received
large numb Der of offers for return engage

Campanari was one of the distinct fea-

last Sunday in the Metropolitan Opera

No more shall meads be decked with flowers
Nor sweetness dwell in rosy bowers.
Nor greenest buds on branches spring,
Nor warbling birds delight to sing,
Nor April viOlets paint the grove
If forsake my Celia's love.
The fish shall in the oceans burn,
And fountains sweet shall bitter turn;
The humblest oak no flood shall know
When floods shall highest hills o'erhow:
Black Lethe shall oblivion leave--
If e'er my Celia l deceive.
Love shall his bow and shaft lay by,
And Venuss doves want wings to ffy;
The sun refuse to show its light
And day shall then be turned to night.
And in that night no star appear
If once leave my Celia dear.
Love shall no more inhabit earth,
Nor lovers more shall love worth,
Nor joy above in heaven dwell,
Nor pain torment poor souls in hell;
Grim death no more shall horr d prove
If eer leave bright Celia's love

Since | cannot have thine;
For if from yours you will not part,
Why then shoulds't thou have miner
Yet, now think ont, let it lie,
TO find it were in vain;
For tn hast thief in either eye
Would steal it back again
Why should two hearts in one breast lie,
And yet not lodge together?
o Love! where is thy sympathy,
II thus our breasts thou sever?
But love is such mystery
i cannot find it out;
For when think I'm best resolved,

Then farewell care, and farewell woo,
will no longer pine:
For Ill believe have her heart
As much as she hath mine.

1t is possible that Remenyi, the Hunga-

geles with one or more concerts during
his early visit to California. There is
only one Remtnyi, he demonstrated that
during his previous visit here about
two years ago. He has not only marvel
Gus technique and rich sweetness of
tone, but the ability to bring. out every re-
source of his instrument. He is the poet
OF the violin-not wholly the poet Of senti-
ment, but the poet Of fire and force.
Nothing could be more delicious than his
performance of the canzonetta in GODDARD s
concerto, as rendered by him, and no
violin playing be more impressive than
his playing of Schubert's Serenade. 1t is
in this composition that he shows his
ability as master of tonal resource. Re-
menyi has long been a favorite among
lovers of the violin, occupies a high place
ansbng the virtuosi, and wherever he plays
a return engagement his audiences give
increased admiration for his phenomena

WITH KEY AND BOW

The coming attraction at the Los An

of the opera, King Solomon, by the Royal
Operetta Company, late Of the Thalia,
New York City. The engagement com
mences next Thursday evening, February
2Ist and continues four nights and
matinee 1t is very mplete represen-
tation, based upon the romantic and his
torical events in the life Of King Solomon.
The cast includes sixteen principals and
chorus OF sixty-five persons making a
total of over eighty people, The costumes
are historically correct and very elaborate,
foil wing the ancient Oriental style very
closely TIE basis of this old drama is
not very different from the dramas of the
present time. Although some of the
words and choruses are somewhat mod
crn, the text of olden time is practically
adhered to. The lighter songs contain
some very pretty mum bers, and the opera
resembles in some respects the light ope-
ras of the present day. with a suggestion
of grand opera and the drama proper.
The principal roles are in the hands of
competent artists who have made repu-
tation for themselves in San Francisco.
Miss Blame, in the character of a merry
ami phenomenal voice. Mr.. A. Bloom
at rehearsals seems very fin
ished artist. The chorus is well trained,
and the scenery complete in every detail.
King Solomon is the leading character,
and will be seen in all his glory. The
Queen of Egypt is the leading feminine
role. The melodramatic quantity is fur
nished by Adennjah, the brother of the
King, Among the oddly interesting peo-
pie is the King of the Devils. Altogether
It is a very quaint but striking produc-
ton, entirely new in subject and beauti-
fully and gorgeously equipped, with the
element Of novelty running throughout.

Deputy Clerk Woodbury. Authorized to Put In
Telephone

Deputy Woodbury. yesterday received a
letter from Clerk Ward of the supreme
court authorizing him to have tele-
phone put into the office of the supreme
court in this city and this will be done at
once. When Governor Budd went into
office and the new state board OF examin-
ers began the work of auditing the bills,
they found that the telephone matter had
been abused and that these useful but
somewhat expensive conveniences we're as
common as door-knobs about the public
offices at the capital as we'll as at San
Francisco and other places. For instance,
there were eleven telephones in the asy-
lnm for the deaf and dumb, and other in
stitutions were supplied in the same Law
ish manner. The board refused TO audit
the bills and the instruments were ordered
removed from the various public build.

city came under the rule and the tele-
phone was taken out. Since that time
all attorneys or others having business
with the supreme court have been COM
PEELED to tramp over to the Office on Main
street, all of which meant o considerable
loss of time.
