can see the boys start for the front,
take part in land and naval engage
ments, and finally receive their glorious
reception in New York when Admiral
Dewey, surrounded by his men, is ten
dered an amount of patriotic homage
that has probably never been equaled
in modern or ancient times. The en-
gagement Is for three nights.
The San Francisco Evening Post has
the following to say OF the R~entz-Santiey
Burlesque company which appears at the
Grand early in February: There are
some genuine novelties and quite a guam
tity of antique material in the enter
tainment presented by the Rentz-Santley
company at the Alhambra. The feature
of the bin Is a pantomime entitled A
Affair of Honor" It is we'll acted. The
final scene-a sword duel between two
scantily-clad women-is rather risque, but
the combatants fence cleverly, and when
one of them falls the spectators seem
to feel sorry that she did not last longer.
Sp%ecialties, young, middle-aged and
decidedly old make up the remainder Of
the show. Among the performers are:
John Baker, who is really interesting;
Gus Bruno, a veteran monologist; Fan
fretta and the Palmer sisters.
Nine. Emma Nevada's welcome bach
to her native land has been of the hearth
est nature and her success thus far on
her American tour has been quite re-
markable. Nine. Emma Nevada has
been for a dozen years absent from the
land Of her birth and not since the days
of MaplesOn, when she toured the coun-

of Cantatrice been heard in America.
Others might easily nave been forgotten
IN half that time, but not Nevada, the
only living representative CT the splen-

Lind and Patti belonged. The warmth
of the welcome she has received speaks
volumes for the fidelity of music lovers
to the beautiful old ideals.
Nine. Nevada is now on a tour Of
America, which tour Is to Include this

great metropolitan opera house, where
thousands of delighted hearers grew
enthusiastic over her magnificent vocal
ism. The New York papers were unani.
nous in declaring that no vocalist in
this generation had been known to sing
with such exquisite delicacy, such ten
derness and refinement. The almost
voiceless but toneful tenderness of her
pianissimo exceeds anything in delicacy
and yet perfectly audible sweetness tina
can be conceived by the most highly
refined consorium. Nevada's art, hel
trills, her cadenzas, her Incompatible vo.
calism, are all so perfect that criticism
fails. Her voice is as a puff Of melody
