Jefferson's rip" Yet While drawing
this wonderful dramatic picture Nine,
Calve has got to sing in time, watch
the conductor and attend to a hundred
matters that are unknown to an ac-
tor,
1t has been said that the dramatic
genius of Calve sometimes interferes
with her success in music. There are
times when she is so intent on acting
that she gives less attention to melody
than its due, In the study of the great
prima donna many have reached the
conclusion that acting Is the serious
business of her life, while singing is Its
pastime, She possesses a wonderfully
expressive and beautiful voice, fun of
color and passion, but frequently she
neglects the best method in using it
to concentrate her forces on a splendid
stroke of tragedy or q brilliant touch
of comedy. Calve, in brief, is a great
singer, but she is still a greater actress.

MIRACLES IN MEDICINE.
The Wonderful Progress Made Within the

persons are not aware that any such
nerves exist. They do not know that
nothing goes ON in any part of the
body that every other part does not
instantly know Of" The closeness of
this sympathy is Familiarity illustrated
by headaches, indigestion, rheuma-
tism, neuralgia, etc. About every case
of sleeplessness, nervousness and dys-
pepsia is a sympathetic strike" by
brain, nerves or stomach, induced by
the lowering of the general health.
People who think to get rid of these
troubles by some medicine that disre-
CARDS the general health of the body
are on the wrong track. In getting
such diseases as neuralgia and rheu-
matism out of the system Paine's cell
cry compound proceeds at once to re-
store normal appetite and regulate
the nerves, as the foundation for build
ing up the health and vigor.
1t regulates the bowels without de-
lay, and sees to it that the poisonous
humors that are bursting through the
skin, in what are-for purposes of
classifying-called skin diseases, are
given a ready outlet. On this basis of
purified blood and regulated nerves
the permanent cure of every form OF
blood diseases, such as eczema, salt
rheum, bad complexion, is now assured
by this really wonderful remedy.
If the reader of this is not in perfect
health let him simply try first bottle

IL Is difficult, almost impossible, to
oyerestimate the Importance of recent
advances in medicine and surgery,
In surgery there is the application of
the X-ray in determining complicated
fractures.
In medicine there is the serum
treatment for germ diseases, and more
important still, the extended use of
Paine's celery compound in the treat
ment of the many diseases that arise
from a faulty or impaired nervous
system.
This class of ailments causes more
suffering and earlier deaths than all
others, and that is why so much pub
lie prominence was at once given to
Paine's celery compound when it's dis
covery was first announced by Prof.
Phelps of Dartmouth college.
The rapid and sure way that Paine's
celery compound cures neuralgia,
rheumatism and nervous debility, is
marvellous even in the eyes of this
wonder working quarter of the
century.
Ancient miracles were contrary to
natural laws, whereas the remarkable
power of Paine's celery compound, to
make people we'll, comes from better

HOSPITAL SUNDAY TOMORROW.


The Needs of Grace Hospital-A Re
hinder to the Charitable
To those persons charitably disposed
and who wish to bestow some part of
their beneficence where they can know
and see, If they wish, what good 1t
may do, the management of Grace hos
pital, thankful for the offerings of
previous years on hospital Sunday, re-
specially remind our friends that its
wants and needs are more numerous
than ever before because of the great
ly increased demands upon it's limited
appointments and resources.
There have been many times during
the past year when persons seeking adj
mittance as patients have been refused
entrance, because ofthe inadequacy of
the small wards and the few rooms at
our disposal for their use by patients.
The apartments for the school Of
nurses have to be rented in building
outside the grounds and are not prop
erly arranged for the purposes re-
quired for the convenience and comfort
Of the pupils, but are as good as can
be secured with our present facilities.
Some friends of the hospital have
come to it's aid and raised a sufficient
amount to secure an appropriation
made by the state for a new building,
In order to make this addition all that
it ought to be in its appointments,
much more ought to be added to this
building fund and the opportunity is
offered to some good friend to make a
beneficent and abiding memorial for a
good name or deed. 1t is hoped that
the knowledge of this greater want
will not deter anyone from making a
liberal offering to help make the fund
as large as possible.
With our limited appointments we
have been enabled, to receive 1877 pa
tents during the past year, and have
made 106 operations of various kinds
in the surgical ward We are glad and
willing to let those who have been pa
tients in the hospital report about the
treatment and care they have received
at the hands of the physicians, sur
geons and nurses in attendance.
The contributions may be placed in
the envelopes to be found in the
churches, or be sent to the treasurer,
Mr. John A. Richardson, at the Yale
National bank, or to the secretary, DR..
E. j. Walker, 1875 Chapel street
Proper Acknowledgements will be
made in return for all contributions.

cALvE AS A TRAGEDIENNE.
Why She is Regarded as the Worlds
Greatest Artist.

Why She is Regarded as the Worlds
Greatest Artist
Anent the approaching performance
of Nine Calve in Carmen it may be
said that grand opera, being the high
est form of art, enlists the most eX-
traordinary efforts of genius. A great
tenor or distinguished prima donna
should excel not only in lyric beauty
but in histrionic expression, and COM
pared with the task of the chief singers
of the Metropolitan Opera company the
accomplishments of ordinarily good
actors seem insignificant One of the
greatest comedians of modern times is
Edouard de Reszke, whose skill in
Leporello and Mephistopheles is mar
Vicious. The finest tragedienne of ope-
ra is Emma Calve, whose performance
of the characters Of Carmen" San
tuzza" and "Ophelia" could hardly be
surpassed by Duse or Bernhard. Ger
tain singers, 1t Is true, are triumphant
only in vocal gifts Others have the
histrionic talent more largely develop
ed than the musical. Nine. PATHS

les have had frequent reason to Won
der whether If Nine. Calve lost her
voice she could not rival Duse or Bern
hardt This prima donna possesses
more versatile gifts than the actresses.
Her comedy is ebullient in spirit ex-
eellent in art and infectious in good
humor, and during the earlier scenes
in Carmen" she keeps the audience in
laughter. This is an achievement of
no mean quality. Grand opera general
ly ends in tragedy, and the presence
of impending woe throws the audience
into sedate, not to say melancholy.
decorum that is not to be enliVened
except by the most brilliant of comedy.
But Calve, who is beyond all COM
parison the greatest actor of the opera
company, arrives at the full measure
of her genius only in tragedy. Eleano-
ra Duse, although in many particulars
the most distinguished tragedienne of
these times, never reaches the effects
in certain plays achieved by Calve in
certain operas. Duse has only to think
of her lines and their proper express
sion, whereas Calve must sing as we'll
as act, hold her eyes on the conductor
and keep time with the chorus, the or

ties Nine. Calves ''Santuzza" is a
greater revelation of tragic character
than the mere acting performance of
Signora Duse. We have no actress
who can make the part of "Ophelia"
so impressive and tragic as it is done
by Calve. Similarly the Marguerite"
of Ellen Terry is said to be painfully
incomplete in contrast with the magni-
ficent conception of the French singer.
A keen New York observer says that
Calves Carmen" is surely a figure of

Speculation in Stocks Was Dull Yesterday
with Brief spurts of Activity.

WIN pfttt Sputts VI ActiNitys
New York, Jan. S---There were brief
spurts of activity at the stock exchange
to-day, but they were confined to a
few shares and generally speaking,
speculation was dull There was a
gain on absence of news calculated to
either advance or decrease prices. In
consequence the traders had the mar
ket all to themselves, save perhaps in
the case of Sugar, which under pur-
chases by firm with close Washing
ton connections, rose from i10% tc
1121a.
The fact that a leading house turned
up as buyer was sufficient to start
the smaller shorts to cover, but it was
noticeable that as soon as the demand
from that source ceased, the stock ran
off rapidly to lin and closed with a
net gain Of only y per cent. for the
day.
The grangers, Chicago Gas, the coal
ers and Louisville and Nashville moved
irregularly throughout the session, al
though the fluctuations were by no
means important
Early transactions were attended
with a comparatively firm tone and
moderate advances were scored by the
shares just named, but in the after
noon there was a disposition to take
profits, and decline of 4 to x per
cent. ensued, with a. final recovery of

'Iost, Strayed, or Stolen" comedy,
with music, in four acts, cleverly
adapted from the French by J. Cheever
Goodwin and Woolson Morse, the sue
cessful collaborators of Wang" Pan
jandrum," and other we'll known
pieces, was given at the Hyperion the
alter last evening. The audience was
one of the largest of the season and
the entertainment was of the liveliest
description. The lines are good the
music bright and pleasing, and many
excellent actors and singers are in the
cast. Louis Harrison played the prin-
cipal role and was distinctly humorous.
M. A. Kennedy, Cyril Scott, Robert
Cotton and Claude Brooke were
among the best of the impersonators of
male of roles. Georgia Caine, who has
been hailed as a great beauty, was
quite "Frenchy" and vivacious. Fan
ME Bulkeley, Florence Thornton, and
Irene Verona, all persons of most all
Turing qualities, received applause for
their work The chorus was well train
ed and efficient and the scenery was re-
freshingly new and effective.

ready replaced the cinematographe at
Keith's Philadelphia house, and would
have been put in the New York house
where the cinematographe was dis
carded several weeks ago but for the
fact that 1t is the feature at Roster &
Balls, and New York managers do not
consider it good form to copy their
rivals. The New Haven public, there
fore, should avail themselves of this
last opportunity to see the machine
which such wide-awake managers as
Mr.. Keith and Mr. Poll judge to be
the best of all those invented for the
display of moving pictures. Next
week comes Annabelle, the young wo-
man whose refusal to dance at the
Seeley dinner at Sherry's lead to the
shocking revelations concerning that
dinner which are just now the social
sensation of New York. Annabelle's
appearance at the Wonderland, apart
from her wonderful dancing, will cause
a sensation because of its social con-
