Miss Suzanne Adams, whose debut at

is an American by birth and an Irish

musical education at Paris in 1890,
studying under Bouhy In 1894 she
obtained three years engagement at
the Grand Opera, making her first ap-
pearance as Juliette in Gounod's work.
Last winter she appeared at Nice, and

"Alas. poor Italy!' exclaims the Lon
don World THE epithet Italian IS
now formally divorced from opera at
Covent Garden, and in the list Of new
singers one looks in vain for single
recruit from the peninsulas There are
Germans galore, and no lack of French
and American singers, to say nothing
of a Dutchman and a Croatian, but
not a single Italian. The nearest ap-
proach is an artist named Costa, but
he styles himself Herr not 'Signor,'
halls from Mainz, and turns out to be
a declamatory Wagnerian singer"
The Donizetti centenary at Bergarao
last September was dismal failure be-
cause there were no Italian singers to
give a respectable performance of one
of his operas. And Italy has not only
ceased to produce good singers; it's
music in general seems on the down
grade. From Verdi to Mascagni, Puc-
cini and Leoncavailo-what lament
able descent! In other respects too,
matters are in a bad way PinelIis ia
nous orchestra at Rome after career
of twenty-five years, was disbau1ed
this spring, and the great orchestra Of
the Milan Scala barely escaped the
same fate. And yet American girls are
still going to Italy by the Dozen TO
study music. They can hear more good
music in Berlin, Vienna, Munich, Lcip-
sic or London in week than in any
Italian city in three months; and us
for Italian teachers, most of them do
not prepare pupils for the style Of music
now in vogue.
Tamagno, the last Of the Italian ten

he received $31. 900 in advance. After

Weekly Crop Bulletin.

During the first part of the month
cool weather prevailed which had
tendency to check the growth
of corn and cotton-especially the lat
ter. but this was followed by warn,
showery weather, with good rains
from the 13th to the 18th. which not
only restored conditions but gave an
impetus to the growth of vegetation
which promises good results as to the
development of these crops in the pre-
liminary stages of maturity. Corn,
except in a few localities where the
rainfall has been light and insufficient,
is in fine state of growth; the crop
has been we'll worked and is clean
and in fine condition for the coming
period of ripening. Cotton suffered
from the cool weather and is not fruit
ing well, as rale; crops ase general
ly clean. Excessive rains IN the
northern portion of the State-es-
pecially in the tobacco regions-have
damaged the prospects of that crop te
some extent. The week generally
was unfavorable for threshing wheat
and this work was greatly hindered.
rusulting In possible damage to thal
portion Of the crop yet in the shock
the yields, thus far, are generally sat
lsfactory. Oats are turning out rath-
er light, especially in the eastern sec
uon. The second crop Of Irish pota
toes is beginning to grow off well, al
SO late millet and peas, of which thert
is large acreage planted. The weel
was unfavorable for haying. Swee
potatoes and garden vegetables are il
fine condition. Breaking land for fail
seedlings is in progress. Grasshop
pers are reported damaging clover
corn and cotton in Henry county
and chinch bugs are numerous in por
tons of Wilson county. Pasture
have improved and stock is in goot

The EashionabIe Figure.

From the French capital come these sprightly notes; Tho fashionable figure may be described in negatiyes-no shoulders, no chest, 10 hips and no waist to speak Of. The waist is just the depth of hand of ribbon; the fashion. able jacket bulges over 1t all round I expect shortly to hear that there will be no understandings to mention, the shoes being made to squeeze tho feet to noth ing.
 Where you ask, is beauty to be found? l suppose in the hat and hair. The face is so much i'll the shade of the advancing hat that one can hardly see it. The gloves are also most coquettish.
