was born in Fort Scott, Ark, and lived until a young woman in Denver From childhood her training was the special pride of her sister. Two years ago she went to Paris and placed herself under Juliani. Without a thought of returning to America for several years, she sang for MT. Savage during his recent trip to Paris, and her fine dramatic soprano created such an impression on the Boston impr essario that her name was secured to contract on the spot.
 A genuine importation who has att tracted attention at Covent Garden, at the opera in Berlin and in far-away Stockholm, her native city, is Mime. Jennie Norelli. Mime. Norelli was a high coloratura soprano of much sweetness and more than usual volume in the upper register. During her early life she spent number of years in America, and sings.in English with as distinct enunciation as in her native Swedish tongue. <
 Another of this class is the new French tenor, Pierre Riviere. MT Riviere made his Paris debut at the Opera Comique six years ago. Prior to and since that time he has sung at The Hague, Ghent, Liege, Geneva and other foreign cities. Riviere's appear ance in America revives memories of the days when Marie RoZe was great feature of the English opera season, for he has been not only her pupil in Paris, but her protege. She had entire charge of his studies after he signed to sing in English with MT. Savage last spring, and spent his time in her studio surrounded by the many souvenirs of her former American triumphs.

 Tommy, moving along the platform, takes the last seat, behind his father. Now, then, Tommy, what are you after now? Haven't told yer thou sand times that thesback seat ain't for boys? Why, you'll get all mixed up in the cabbage gardens, the groceries and the blanks"
 Tommy moves forward a few seats.
 ''Why, Tommy, you're in the middle again. Haven't told you you're never to sit in the middle? Suppose 8 cart came along and ran, into you?"
 Tommy moves seat or two ahead, and plants himself on the left.

east, and is now playing to Chicago audiences at the Studebaker theater in that city.
 It is some six years since Henry w. Savage conceived and carried out the Idea of grand opera in English as popular form of amusement for the American public. To many people the beauty of grand opera is lost because of a failure to understand the lines, and it is to this class that MT. Savage has attempted to appeal with varying de- grees of success. "Amateurish" was the verdict of several critics of the earlier ventures, and, when com pared with the efforts of Melba and her class it was fair criticism at that time. But this year MT. Savage has secured from Europe seven new stars of very close to first magnitude. Some of these, however, are but returned travellers from America originally, who have made marked successes in Europe. Notable among this class is Miss Rita Newman, the California mezZo-sopra- no. Miss Newman has had eight years on the continent, with three years grand opera work in Hamburg and Der lin. The last three years sAe has spent in Paris, devoting her entire time to study with such teachers as Marchesi. Marie Roze, whose former American triumphs in English opera are remem- bered by the older generation of opera goers, and Mime. Weinschenk, the great mise-en-scene teacher of Paris and one of the few mistresses of the art.
 Another of this class of more than passing interest is Miss Jean Lane
