How Lima Cavalier, Most Beautiful Woman of
Europe" Has Won Her Way to Fame and
Fortune by Hard Work.
Is AIDED BY HER SISTERS DEVOTION
LoUe Affair with Prince Alexander Baratinski the Begin.

nous Masters of Music -NouU the Idol
of Adoring Paris.

gave her friendship to Prince Alexan-
der B~aratinski, second son of a con
siderable Russian house and a young
man about Paris.
Prince Alexander came to have i'm
mense admiration for the talent, the
voice. the beauty and the goodness of
the girl.
you must cultivate that voice." he
told her. You are wasting yourself
on the music hall stage, which is o
worthy of you. Take up opera!" he
advised her.
That is what my sister is always
writing me-" pouted the fair Lima.
Those who knew her at that time de-
clare that, personally, she found her
self very well where she was. The
climbing of the grand opera ladder
would mean unceasing labor-not to
speak of risk. The appeals of Ada had
not moved her. Was it love that now
began to pull her? Watts touching
painting of Love Leading Life con
tains a mighty moral.
On Road to Grand Opera.
Like the camel that is being loaded
Lima groaned in spirit. Like the
camel, she was slow in getting started.
But, still like that reliable creature,
once started, she kept going. In 1867
the music halls saw no more of Lima
Cavalieri; and it became known that
she was diligently cu~ltivating her voice
under Nine. Mariani-Masi.
Prince Alexander was delighted. At
least, he professed himself delighted.
Indeed. it was generally thought that
the two young people so admirably fit
ted to each other would certainly mar
ry-a superstition made the less unrea-
sonable by the well-known fact that
Prince AleXander's elder brother and
head of the family had only a few years
previously married a celebrated Rus
sian actress-with whom he was living
happily. Lima was simply working to
make herself worthy of the alliance.
She would not ask Prince Alexander
to marry the most beautiful woman

LOVE, HOPE AND WORK

There was riot in front of the curtain
and panic and recriminations behind It,
and In a row that would not have been
out of place in a Latin quarter cafe
Lima Cavalieri and Alexander Baratin-
ski spoke their parting words.
We know no more than this. Was
1t one of loves hateful treasons? Was
1t desertion i'll the hour of need? The
girl had worked and shaved to please
him. The world would have liked to
see him stand manfully by her in her
hour Of failure. That Lima has never
Accused him proves nothing. She may
have been too proud-or she may have
been in the wrong. And, note, that
Baratinski never defended himself
proves nothing. He may have been too
chivalrous or he may have had no
excuse.
Baratinski fled to his yacht. Simply
that.
Cavalieri moved with dignity to the
railway station. On her lonely trip
from Lisbon to Paris by the Sud Ex-
press, accompanied only by a faithful
maid, the company disbanded-who
knows what bitter thoughts may have
been hers? All, work that had all gone
for nothing! Really, | know of no
more pathetic figure than that Of the
disabused and lonely girl returning to
Paris.
A few weeks later in Paris she
learned that Prince Alexander had al
lowed his Paris apartment to be sold
out by the sheriff. The young folks
never met again. Prince Alexander

ceased bombarding her with letters OF
expostulation. Later on she comrro-
missed.
Urged Sister Onward.
III you will not giVe ur'the stage, be
a real artiste!" was her final appeal.
When Lima had begun studying with
Nine. Mariani-Masi she began ia hope.
And when at last Lima was to make her
debut In grand opera at Lisbon she
was waiting ~anxiously to learn the re-
suit.
when she learned the pitiful result
Ada Cavalieri took a great decision.
Quitting her place ut Genoa she hurried
to Paris.
She settled down beside her wound
ed and reckless sister. Did she try to
comfort her? How could the born old
maid comfort her? But 1t is certain
that he frigid Ada wrestled with the
fiery Lima seven days-and triumphed!
Grooming in spirit like the camel,
Lima again renowned the easy life and
money of the music halls. Again she
took up the burden of grand opera.
Love, with great shining eyes, no long
er beckoned her. But on and on she
bore the burden, with her sister always
by her. How she finally succeeded is
well known.
In 1901 h was singing the principal
part Of Mimi in Puccini's Vie de
Boheme' at no less an opera house
than the San Carlo of Naples. Next she
secured a brilliant engagement for an
entire season at the Imperial theater
of MISUNDERSTANDING Violetta in "Trav-
iata," Marguerite in Faust Mimi in
Vie de Boheme'-and taking fine re-
venge on the cruel Lisbon public by an
overwhelming triumph as Media.
Succeeding years confirmed this sue

cess, and artistic and social satisfac-
lions of grand opera ceased to cost her
anything financially. On the contrary,
she had never done so well in the halls.
At the Theater of Ravenna, at the
Grand Theater of Palermo. at the
Opera of st. Petersburg, and notably
at the u%ltra-artistic Casino-Theater at
Monte Carlo she has had repeated en-
gagements. In Russia she is all the
rage. Her country of Italy has
taken her to its heart.
And she has bought a mansion in the
Avenue de Messine for her Paris resi-
dence!
During her present summer vacation
she will furnish it herself-a work of
peaceful satisfaction.
Beautiful Old Maid.
1t is a quiet street and rich-tte
Avenue de Messine. 1t is a short
street Of only "a numbers, running
from the statue of William Shake
speare in the little square of the Boule-
ward Haussmann to the delightful Pare
Monceau, surrounded by its palaces.
1t Is a street of the newly rich, per-
haps; few great titled families live in
it. But those who inhabit 1t are snug
and at peace with the world. Well.
among all, there will be none more
snug than a most glorious old maid.
You know who it is. There can be
but one such-"the most beautiful old
maid In the world"
Ada Cavalieri takes charge of Lina's
Paris mansion, That she Is so like her
sister will not strike Parisians-be-
cause they will not see her. When she
goes out she will dress in sad, plain
clothes. And where she goes-to
church for the most part-Parisians
will no. follow.
In her W way she is happy. Is 1t
not strange Here is beauty gone to
waste, you will say. Well, judge for
yourself. Some time ago the somber
sister had a slittish moment. 1t In.
cited her to prove her equal beauty.

Paris.-That the most beautiful
woman of Europe may be discomfort
ed with her job is shown by the ex-
t~raordinary case of Lima Cavalieri.
AS a music hall star of the first
magnitude she was flattered and feted.
She had but to show her beautiful per-
son and MARBLE a few ditties to earn
heavy money. The world had prac-
tically told her that her loneliness was
all-sufficient without talent.
Lima Cavalieri tossed aside the bril-
liant sinecure and plodded the hard
road leading to grand opera. When
Parisians learned it they shrugged at
the impractical choice and as good as
forgot her. Now she has just given
them a mighty jolt by coming back as
a grand opera star, with a rumorei
engagement at the Paris opera itself;
and furthermore she has just bought
a splendid mansion in the Avenue de
Messine. But why she grew discon-
tented with being the most beautiful
woman of Europe" and nov she threw
up the music hall sinecure on the Off
chance of succeeding in grand opera
remains a secret.
The secret spring of Lina's change
of base began with a great hope, con-
tinued through a great despair and
ended in a great devotion. The hope
and the despair were those of worldly
love. But the devotion was that Of a
sister.
Nothing could be more striking than
the contrast between the lives chosen
by the two girls. When their widowed
mother died in Rome in 1889 Ada was
Is years of age and Lima II. AS there
were no relatives and the property was
small, friends put them in a convent
school of aristocratic connections,
whose side specially was the edu-
cation of poor girls of good family for
governesses and companions.
