There is a genera impression that
Miss Fremstad is an American, but ac-
cording to her own statement this is
not the case. She is a Norwegian by
birth, and was already quite a young
girl when she came to this country.
She lived for some years in Minneapo-
lis and Duluth, where she taught
music. No one can realize the hard
ships of those early days Of her must
cal career. Absolutely dauntless. buff
feting weather of all sorts, she went
from one pupil to the other, and for a
%pittance.
Within her was burning the love
for music, and one might almost say
she knew the pangs Of hunger. Her
struggles to gain a musical education
were continued in Chicago and New
York, where she continued her teach
Ing. Later she went abroad.
Won by Suffering.
Miss Fremstad, speaking upon the
subject Of study, said: Il hope that
no n who wants to become an artist
will have to do it by dint of suffering
| such as was mine, and yet | cannot see
| how the great goal a be o. without

pend any more upon instruction and
natural equipments than it does upon

the goal one must be able to cast aside

TARRED ROADS IN ENGLAND.
Process Simple and Results Declared
to Be Highly Satisfactory.

The road is first thoroughly cleaned
by dry sweeping, then roughly dis
titled tar is poured over it and spread
evenly, after which sand is thrown
on and the road is Immediately ready
for traffic. A fortnight or three weeks
later a second coating is applied, and
in a short time the road has the ap-
pearance Of an asphalt street. 1t D.
pears also that a short stretch OF
road in Beckenham was treated with
tar oil, which is poured over again
until the pores Of the road exude the
preparation.
This tar oil, however, dries up
quickly, does not make an oily aud
nasty mess In wet weather and is
said to be much cheaper than the
tar process, but it requires more fire.
quent renewal. A comparatively
small quantity of the material is avail
able, and this is a difficulty in the
way of its general adoption. The
Bohemian district council is spend
ing about $1,000 in laying down two
short stretches with the most up-to-
date tar macadam.

Buildings Fireproof.
The building is thoroughly fire proof
and furnished with exits sufficient to
allow a crowded house to retire as fast
as the streets will accommodate the
people. The whole Fifth street front,
200 feet wide, is an exit.

hard working, and aspiring: one might
almost wonder, however, whether she
ever aspired or hoped for the heights
she has since reached.
Operate Debut.
Her operate debut was made at
Vienna in the role of Brangaene to
Lehmann's Isolde. Miss Fremstad
vas not only a favorite of Frau Wag-
ner, but she also enjoyed the study OF
W%agnerian roles under her direction,
and whereas she has sung lighter
opera, her pre-eminent successes have
been in the roles of the great master
of Bayreuth.
Miss Fremstad also appeared in
'Rheingold," in "Gotterdammerung'
and as n Of the flower girls in Par
sifal." Her luscious voice and consum-
mate grace in these plastic parts stood
out forcibly in the productions.
Rival Of calve.
After her appearances in Bayreuth
she went to Cologne and sang many
roles in the lighter operas, as also the
parts of Waltraute and Carmen, in
which she made a furore which in Ger
many rivaled Calves. After this. Of
fers came from all the opera houses in
Europe, but Munich captured her. She
played Brangaene, Ffdes, Carmen,
Haensel, and other contralto roles, and
after her farewell performance Of
Carmen the students embarrassed the
horses from her carriage, and hanging
it with laurel wreaths, drew her
through the streets. After this came
her successes in London, and the story
of her triumphs in America is too well
known TO need rehearsing.

RURAL MAIL RIG BURNS.
Carrier Who Carries Oil for Patrons on
Route Has Bad Experience.

Through carrying a quantity of kero-
sene Oil and some matches for one OF
the residents on his route, a rural mail
carrier running out of the little town
OF Chester had a serious experience.
The kerosene Oil spilled out into the
rig and in some manner the matches
became ignited. Before the driver
scarcely had time to realize what had
occurred his mail wagon was on fire
and there was a trail OF fire across
the prairie. He succeeded in unhitch
ing his team, and saved most of the
mail, but some of the mail and the
buggy were consumed.

well under way; unusually early for
this section of the country. Cattle

a chinook wind followed by a freezing

to cattle and sheep men are not being

considers that it had always been a

And dried the last faint trace of

And rocked him till with life elate
He faced the wonders and the joys
