.:.r.zts t'Rigoletto.''
Verdi's tuneful "Rigoletto'' is by
far the most exquisitely tender and
powerfully dramatic grand opera con-
ceived by Giuseppe Verdi, who was the
sincerest of all the great Italian macs

instrumental force of $50 people under
the authoritative control. Of Emanuel,
Minneapolis will enjoy full realiza-
tion Of the grandeur Of both the choral
and orchestral values of Verdi's mas
terwork, all Of which the earlier i'm
presarios failed to give. Again, the
magnificent stage investiture will BE-
there to give an adequate idea of the
proper scenic atmosphere. Add to this
an elaborate scheme of historically ac-
curate costuming and cast of the best
English singing artists, and one can
easily realize what treat Rigolet-
to affords when sung by the Savage
Grand Opera company in English.
"Rigoletto' affords a display Of
more vocal pyrotechnics than any other
opera in the Savage companyS's roper
tory. The story is taken from Victor
Hugo $ drama, lie Roi s'Amuse, a
play made world famous by all. the
great tragedians, under the title of the
Fools Revenge, or !" The King g
Jester.' Rigoletto is the jester, who
keeps his beautiful daughter seques-
tered from the frivolous Duke Of Man
tua and his courtiers, but they abduct
the maiden, and Rigoletto, in planning
his revenge, brings about the thrilling
tragedy with which the story of the
drama closes. 81.

And sold the sorrel horse.
We sent him every dollar saved,
And made a seedy pair,

Their days of useful wear.

But soon mighty cheer went up
And told us Jim had won.

He never gave single glance
Towards the pretty girls,

And kissed her silyery curls.

With proud and happy smiles;

Was years behind the styles.
And led her out before his friends.

Monies.
Apropos of the study of Robinson
Crusoe In the school are the follow
ing paragraphs from an article by
DR.. Hill, published in Watson's
Magazine:
when the average boy spends
the delighted hours of imaginative
youth in devourlng the pages OF
Robinson Crusoe, he has, like most
people of mature years, no idea that
he is peruslng a work OF profound
philosophy, written by one of the
greatest political thinkers of the
English-speaklng race.
Taken with knowledge of the
facts of the career of Defoe. Robin
son Crusoe can properly be consider
ed a story intended to illustrate the
heavy burden of trouble placed upon
any single individual isolated from
his fellows, and compelled TO main
tain his existence without their aid.
The tale shows in an inimitable way
how all civilized men are interde-
pendent. Regarded from this point
of view, the author of the most wide
ly read work OF fiction ever written
becomes an object of particular in
terest to all thinkers upon politics"
