Miss Suessmilch is a pupil of Mrs.
kingsmill-Shaw, in Sydney, and has
appeared repeatedly with great sue
cess as solo singer in concerts in
sydney and number of other Austria
liam cities. About three years ago she
Went-to Berlin to further cultivate her
voice, and while there studied with
Prof. Adolph Schulze and Miss Meta
Ldppo1d, both members of the Royal
Academy of Music in Berlin. 1t was
due to her eminent talent that she was
twice selected to sing prominent solos
during visit of the emperor to the
academy, which was the occasion for
musical exercises, as, for instance, the
FAMOUS piece. "The Fairy Kings
Daughter" (Erlkenigs Tochter), by
Meals Gade.
In recognition of her performance,
although she was an English subject,
she received a stipendium from the
PruSsian government.
Last fall Miss Suessmilch left Berlin
IN order to give concerts in London
and birmingham, which were crowned
with success
Nine. Antonia Dolores, who is a
friend of Miss Suessmilch, suggested
that she give concerts in America.
However, this plan miscarried on ac-
count of the sickness of the mother of
the young artist.

ERWHE recital Tuesday evening at the
uWu Park Congregational church is

the Interesting musical event
of the week. This is the English con-
tralto's second tour through this coun-
try. Last winter she sang the Delilah
music in Saint Saens' Samson and
Delilah,' which the Philharmonic club,
of Minneapolis, gave, and it is because
Schubert club members were so pleased
withcher singing at that time that they
engaged her to give this recital for the
club members and the public. Her
voice is said to be opulent in both
quantity and quality and full of emo
ton and fervor. In March of last year
Miss Foster sang the music of Mary
Magdalen in Cigars oratorio, The
Apostles" produced in New York city.
The Globe wrote of her appearances:
Miss Foster sang the Magdalen's part
in fun, deep, resonant, and, at moments,
velvet-like voice, such as only English

The st. Paul Choral club has decided
not to give Elgar's Dream of Geron-
t1us for its last concert. The orches-
tration of this is exceedingly difficult
and an artistic presentation would ne
cessitate number of joint rehearsals
of orchestra and chorus, and the ex-
pense therefore would be great. 'The
Creation" is being talked of as a sub
stltute, but many people are declaring
themselves in favor of one of the
operas, 'Tannhauser' or 'Tohengrin''
preferably.

Miss Jessica o'Brien, who recently
returned from Europe, will give pi-
ano recital Thursday evening, Feb. 8,
in the Park Congregational church.
When she was fifteen years old Miss
| O'Brien left st. Paul and took up her
residence abroad for the purpose of
developing her talent as pianist She
studied for seven years in Vienna where
she was the pupil of Leschetizky, from
whom she has received certificate.
She lived with the master and his wife
In Vienna and was also near them
when they removed to their country
residence in the summer. Sickness in
her family called Miss O'Brien home,
but she will leave for New York Feb.
10, where she is to play and will then
probably return to Europe. Next sea-
son she is to give series of recitals on
the continent. Miss O'Brien has a
charming meZzo-soprano voice, and
while here she has been studying with
| Mrs. Ella M. Lamberson. Her ac-
quaintance with Leschetizky has given
this young woman an opportunity to
meet all the noted musicians, especial
| ly the pianists, and her wide social ex-
perience is revealed by her poise and
distinction of presence.

NO CRYING FOR MARK TWAIN

vitatiOn to Revisit Reno, New.
 Mark Twain was recently invited to revisit Reno, New, and attend the Fourth of July celebration, says the New York Tribune. The invitation stirred his memory of the days he spent in the Rockies in the early six ties, although he found that it would be impossible for him to make the trip. In replying to the invitation he recalled some of the memories of his experi- enees and showed that the lapse of time had not caused them to become oimmed His characteristic communi cation, which is written to Mir. Full ton, is as follows:

'Cheer up. desolate stranger: don't be downhearted; pass on and come again in lso5.' you cannot think how grateful would have been and how gladly would have closed the contract Although I was not expecting to be in- vited, was watching out for 1t and was hurt and disappointed when you started to ask me and changed 1t to How soon are you going awayg' For I was an or phan at that time and had been one so many years that I was getting sensitive about 1t.
 But you have made 1t all right now. and the wound is closed And so I thank you sincerely for the invitation. and with you all Reno. and if l were a few years younger I would accept 1t. and promptly. l would go I would let somebody else do the oration; but. as for me.

 Those were the days-those old ones! They will come no more. Youth will come no more. They were full to the brirn with the wine of life. There have been no others like them. It chokes me up to think of them. Would you like me to come out there and cry? It would not become my white head. Goodby. I drink to you all. Have a good time-and take sn old mans blessing.
