MUSIC AND MUSICIANS

Washington is to have a short season
Of English opera this month. when Henry
w. Savage's English Opera Company
will give three performances of Puc-
cinis The Girl of the Golden West" at
the Belasco Theater on November "a and
25 and a matinee. The story OF The
Girl of the Golden West" is of the Cali
fornia of '49, with its old-time pictur-
esqueness, its struggle, passion, and pa
thos IN the alluring hunt for gold.
The librettist has put this period to
use and has made for the opera a back
ground Of dramatic power centering in
the girl'-a wild flower that preserves
its native sweetness amid a wilderness Of
wild and sordid life. 1t brings us in
touch with the forty-niners and their
wild life; and the marvellous harmonies
of Puccini further emphasize this. 1t is
truly an American grand opera, and all
music lovers are greatly indebted to
Henry w. Savage for his answering
devotion to the cause OF grand opera in
English
Anton Kaspar, violinist and Choirmas-
ter at Ascension Church, will have a
short programme of music at 7:45 in that

"Humoreske" during that time. The or
ganist Louis Potter has returned from

again to-day. The sight reading class,
conducted by Mr.. Kaspar. will meet in
the Sunday school room on Saturday
evenings at 7:3O instead of Thursday

Her rise has been phenomenal ana

tive, she combines every element
necessary to make the perfect en-
/ tertainer
Mr.. l. NJ Holcomb, president of the
