Grand Opera in Washington.

Mr., and Mrs. Tom Greene have gone
10 New York on business connected
with the season of grand opera, to be
given here by the Metropolitan Opera
Company. This will be good news to
all lovers of opera. who have been wait
ing all season anXiously to know wheth-
er Washington was to have a taste of
the really good in opera this season or
not SO many seasons Washington has
been passed by entirely by the opera
or it has been brought so late that the
season was so much of a failure that
the greatest stars We're not allowed TO
sing. 1t is most unfortunate if the
company has really selected the date
announced, March %, as this is Holy
Week, and no doubt will prove little
better than date in the late spring.
1t seems little short OF folly TO select
Holy Week for grand opera in Wash
ington, where such a large element of
opera patrons are the fashionable peo-
pie, foreigners, and officials who are for
the most part Catholics and Episcopal
ians.
