MASSENET'S NEW OPERA,
Deals With Fall of Rome and Is Pro
duced at Monte Carlo.

MONTE CARLO March Monte Carlo
is to add another notable operate pre-
miere to those this city of the southern
shore has already celebrated-''Le JON
geeus de Notre Dame" "Cherubin -
Therese." "Espada' and Don Quix-
ote4' The new one is Roma by the
veteran composer Massenet.
The poem, which forms the story of
Roma is based on a brochure called
Roma Vaincu,'' tragedy by Alexandra
Parodi. Massenet was struck by the
beauty and classic purity of the work,
and. in collaboration with NJ. Henri Cain,
the librettist, wrote the opera.
Parodi and Massenet were well ac-
quainted, and twenty years ago they dis
cussed a musical work in common; but
other occupations absorbed them, and the
project was never realized. Parodi died
ten years ago, and had not the salts
faction of hearing the music which Mas
senet has written.
The lyric and dramatic treatment of the
various episodes in the fall of Rome is
particularly happy, and represents, 1t is
said. the best manner of the composer
of "Werther." Paris is to hear the work
before long. and it is probable that the
same artists, Nine. kousneZoff. Mile
Lucy Arbeli. NM. Muratore, Note, and
Delmas, will sing the chief roles at the
Grand Opera House.

rs ARRESTED FOR PRAISE OF
RLEASE
BLEASE.

A young man of Columbus, S. c.,
was arrested in Atlanta, Ga, for
noisily declaring that Gov Cole
Blease, that Carolinian paladin, is
the finest piece of work the sun ever
shone upon. In the same breath he
denounced Thomas B. Fielder, one of
Atlanta's greenest and most spread
ing bay trees, and the result is that
his sanity is being investigated.
Gov. Blease, it will be remembered,
was charged with selling pardons to
convicts for cash, and Col Fielder
was one of the denunciators. Does
our memory fail us, or did Col. Fell
der decline to cross the State line,
into South Carolina when the fiery
Blease challenged him to mortal
combat? Is the incarceration Of this
Columbia man anything more than
the sort of reprisal which precedes
hostilities in the field?
At any rate, here is cause for war
between South Carolina and Geor-
gia; the two Commonwealth have
been swearing at each other across
the border for weeks; the situation
grows hourly more dangerous;
John Temple Graves is no longer in
Georgia to counsel peace and hon
orahle compromise; Clark Howell,
that wise counsellor, is weary of try
ing to give the people what they
want, and counsels no more; Hoke
Smith is exalted to such height that
these murmurs far beneath him
cannot reach his ears; the hotheads
like Joe Brown, Tom Watson, Dich
Russell and fire-eating Hooper Alexis
ander are in the saddle; in short, we
fear the worst; we fear war; in
fancy we hear the drums beating
from Rabun Gap to Tybee Light,
and the wild shouts of the clansmen
as the Dismukes and the Peeyeys
gather to the fray AS for South
Carolina, she is always ready for
battle; even Tillman and Con
zales would march shoulder to
shoulder against the common foe;
the State of Wade Hampton, of the
Legares and Aikens is never back
ward when the bugle blows.
In order to save a possible fright
full loss Of life, could not ten cham
pions from each State be selected to
fight it out, as was the custom in
the spacious lays of ola! We have
no hesitancy in naming the weapons;
let it be the terrible artillery punch
of Savannah, and we nominate Col.
Bill thinner of Georgia as referee,
and declare the nominations closed,
