mile. Modiste' is the name of Miss
FRITZ Scheff's new comic opera to be pre-
serted by Charles Dillingham; at the Co
lumbia next week. Seats for the engage
ment will go on sale tomorrow
Tie opera is in two acts of three scenes,
and the action takes place in and around
Paris. Henry Blossom, who. it may be re-
membered, was SO eminently successful
with his musical comedy, "The Yankee Con-
sul,' has provided the ibretto and lyrics.
while the music is from the pen of the
gifted Irish-American composer, Victor
Herbert
Miss Scheff is said to have part in the
new opera of an essentially dramatic ma
ture. The popular prima donna last season
evidenced a development Of histrionic
power, which probably has suggested to Mr..
Dillingham; the advisability of giving her a
part In which she could show her acting
power In addition to her singing. If Miss
Scheff should establish for herself repu-
tation for clever acting she will only be fol-
lowing in the footsteps of Nine. Calve,
whose remarkable acting in Carmen
everybody recalls with pleasure.

DoMINICANs TO MEET.
Election to Be Held at Convent This
Weel.

The new Dominican Convent and Collage
OF the Immaculate Conception, located di-
rectly in front of the Catholic University
grounds, will be the scene this week of n
representative gathering of members of the
dominican Order. The occasion Is the cleo
ton OF new provincial for the ensuing
-FOUR years, the term of the present provin-
cial being about to expire
This gathering is known as a provincial
chapter, and it is expected that delegates
VIII be present from distant points in the
United States, the province in which
Washington is located includes all of this
country except California and a small strin
on the north.
Only superiors of houses and delegates
from eacn house having a sufficient num-
Der of members of the order are eligible to
vote, though In addition to the delegates
anu superiors of houses ex-provincials are
allowed and usually exercise a vote in the
chapter. OF the latter there are Rev F. A.
Spencer, assistant at st. Economics Church
in this city. and Rev. A. V. Higgins now
stationed at st. Patrick's Church, Cleve-
land, Ohio.
Next Friday evening the ceremonials of
the chapter will begin. There will be a
service for those In attendance. and Sat
urday morning mass of the Holy Ghost
Will be said. Following this the voters will
assemble in a room prepared for the pur-
pose and secret ballot, or ballots, If nee
essary, will be cast until one man has a
majority vote.
AS to the result of this gathering there
Is no means of even venturing prediction
Unlike most other conventions, there are
no candidates, and If there were the
chances more than likely that If a
member of the order were by any means
to pose as even receptive one he would be
entirely ignored. In this manner, said a
prominent Roman Catholic, the sons of St
Dominic inculcate humility among their
own members.
