A SUNDAY NIGHT CONCERT.

It appears from announcement IN the pros
gramme OF the concert given at the Metropoll,s,
Opera House last night that the Sunday night CON-
certs are not to end with the departure from town
Of the opera company. At any rate. information
about the eighteenth concert. which IS 20 take place
next Sunday. has been promulgated, and the many
hundreds who may have gone to last nights con.
cert in the expectation that they were going to
have the privilege OF saying the uttermost last
farewell to Nine. Sembrich and her companions o,
last nights affair will be disappointed when they
read that the concerts are to go on with another
orchestra perhaps (Which will cause no mournngl
but with Mr.. Grau's artists so that there will bs
no great change in their physiognomy. The mat
ter however is not grievous, for the concerts give
great delight and might well be continued as
long as the popular hunger for music remains un-
stated.
OF course Nine. sembrch was the star OF last
nights concert and she turned the heads OF her
listeners as completely as she or anybody ever did
before. First she sang "Qui la voce" from Belinis
"Purltani," and in 1t displayed that command Of
sostinuto singing in which she is the most con-
summate mistress Of all the vocasts America has
heard for decades. To this she added a catching
tarantella by Bevgrani. who conducted and with
whom she archly and gracefully shared the guer-
dons which the performance brought. and when
this would not suffice Beckers "Sprngtime" in
German for which her husband. Herr Stengel.
played the accompaniment This was in the first
part Of the evening. Later she rode her old
horse the vocal waltz "Voce di Prmavera," by
Strauss, to an uproarious triumph. and then sang
"Ah non giunge," fnd Chopin's "Maidens Wish
to her own brilliant pianoforte accompaniment. To
her successes those OF Mr.. Bispham and H. do
Iieer van Rooy formed worthy seconds. and Nine.

with popular glory. Even the orchestra got two

enameled buttons. These buttons, by the
way, are peculiar 10 1893, and are different
from the colored crystal ones that are
still In good fashionable standing.
Growing Collars.
If you question both tailors and dress
makers as TO collars, they will say that
excelsior is still the cry in that direction.
BY constant wear of very high neckbands,
women are destroying all the beauty
Of their Threats and giving their heads

lars are made of silk or satin finely pleated

points to fl high behind the ear. Never
than that is a collar cut with the ear
points, and then a third higher peak di-
rectly in the back This rear peak often
runs halfway up the hight of the head,
and sometimes IL is split open down the

a bright color or lace.

honSycomb Russian net, garnished in
either of two ways; with spangles or with
three sizes of black silk braid The braid
is rather the smarter of the two and it
describes large, fanciful figures over the

is practically indesCTuctable, and displays
a richness of effect that is always agree
able. If it is made up so that the sleeves
can be removed and the top of the waist
lifted out it can serve equally well as

The FavOrite Spring Hat.
Early in he winter the hat that
turned up in front justly received its
due of favoritism and flattery. It's sue
ccssor in the spring will be an airy
thing of silk muslin or tulle set on the

spangled brim turned up on all sides
equally. Already we see some lucky
women, who have their headgear ali.

glittering crowns, but meantime a great
