PATHS Eye to Business.

Adelina Patti never suffered from the
only was she a supreme vocalist, but,
as Col. Mapleson remarked, mo one
ever approached her In the art Of OBJ
tanning from a manager the greatest
ity contrive to pay" But the musical
miracle was the spoiled darling of her
day, and she never failed to obtain ex-
actly what she wanted. She was first
engaged in London in 1861, by Maple
son, to sing four nights ION approval"
and, in case of success, to obtain forty
pounds a week. This contract was not
fulfilled, however, for being hard
pressed financially, she borrowed fifty
pounds from a rival manager, and her
receipt proved practically a contract.
This was the beginning Of career so
dazzling that its successive steps are
simply series Of increasing bank
notes. In 1872 she obtained in London
200 guineas a night, since she insisted
on having more than Christine Nils
son, who was receiving 200 pounds.
She sang twice week. Ten years la
ter she was given $4,000 night! Her
famous contract in America proved
that the money should be paid her at
2 o'clock on the day she sang, also a
drawing-room and sleeping car to be
especially built for her, with conserva-
tory and fernery, etc. Further, there
was to be deposited to her credit $780,
900 for payment Of the last ten per-
formances-Patti'S favorite device. She
thus received about twenty times what
Mario and Grisi got. Her private car
incidentally cost 100000 and contained
a silver bath and gold keys to the door
to say nothing Of a $4,000 piano. Pat
II only gave to the manager her voice
pacity justified this. Lucia" as an
example, was sung to an average of
$4,000. "Traviata" drew more, since
she sang more notes; it was frequent
occurrence among the poorer music
lovers to buy a club ticket and each
take turns at hearing her for twenty
minutes: If one overstayed his time
he paid for the entire ticket. Some
mathematicians computed, by dividing
number of notes sung by a sum paid,
that in "Semiramide" Patti received
42S cents for each note. This was found
to be just lilo cents per note more
than Rossini got for writing the whole
opera.-The Bookman.

provinces of Bosnia and Herzegovina,
which have a Serb population. And
Servia and Montenegro joined to ask
for a strip of land down to the sea.
Austria refused.
Then Servia demanded that the pow
ers act on her demands, and prepared
for war. But Russia gave Servia only
weak support; and Austria insisted
that the quarrel was between herself
and Servia, and demanded that Servia
take her troops off the frontier. Tur-
key put Servia in a bad position by
agreeing to the annexation Of Herze-
govina and Bosnia.
Great Britain, with the concurrence
Of France and Russia, advised Servia
to withdraw all her demands on Aus
tria. Servia did this early In March.
But Austria's demand of a more en-
phatic renunciation delayed the end of
the game another fortnight. The set
tlement seems to mean a complete vic
tory for Austria and Germany, the de-
feat of Servia and the maintenance of
the French and British contention that
Austria's annexation Of Herzegovina
and Bosnia should not be recognized
until Austria and Servia had come to
terms. Russia has been reduced to a
humble diplomatic position. Mean
while Turkey and Bulgaria have been
settling their own difficulty. The Won
der is that contest involving a dozen
countries and provinces has been
brought to a peaceful conclusion by
diplomacy.

adopting the Beauregard flag, as 1t was
called, and directing me, as chief quar-
termaster, to have the flag made as
soon as it could be dcne. I immedi-
ately issued an address to the good Ia
dies of the south to give me their red
and blue silk dresses and to send them
to Capt. Colin McRae Selph, quarter
master at Richmond, Va. (Capt, Selph
Is now living in New Orleans), where
he was assisted by two elegant young
ladies, the Misses Carey from Balti-
more, and Mrs Henningsen of Savan-
nah, and Mrs. Hopkins Of Alabama.
1.-THE Misses Carey made battleflags
for Gen. Beauregard and Gen. Van
Dorm and, think, for Gen. ]. E. john
ston. They made Gen. Beauregard's
out of their own silk dresses. This flag
is now in Memorial Hall, New Orleans,
La, with statement Of that fact from
Gen. Beauregard. Gen. Van Dorn's flag
was made of heavier material but very
pretty.
"The statement going around that
this flag was first designed by Federal
prisoners is false.
