Lucia" Saturday matinee; "Tosca,"
Saturday evening.
Owing to the fact that the weeks
program this year is the most tune
full that has yet been presented in
Atlanta, the popular demand for tick
cts has already far exceeded that Of
last year. and there is every reason
able expectation that the final re-
Ceipts will run between SIS, 900 and
$4,000. Seats continue on sale all
this week at the Gable Piano Com
pany and Phillips Il Crew, at prices
ranging from s. to 81.
one Of the things that will make
the season this year memorable is
the fact that it will introduce to
Southern music lovers Senorita Lu-
cre2ia Bori, the new Spanish beauty
If the Metropolitan opera Company,
who is its ingenue and pet. She is a
slender girl, just past 20, with dark
eyes, coal-black hair and cream white
skin, She is described as a girl Of
winsome charm and sweetness, Of
sudden coquetry, perhaps. but with
a sane genius, who is depending upon
her musical ability rather than per
sonal attractiveness to win fame
Her Father Is Chaperon.

so generally in this country as it is
abroad. We have no princes who
subsidize oper houses and opera
companies. We have to depend upon
our public for the patronage and sup
port which operate enterprises re-
quire. II is true that in Germany
Italy and Austria little towns OF 49,
600 or 10000 inhabitants will have
their opera, their symphony orches-
tras and in many cases their conser-
vatories Of music, but in all cases the
municipalities Of these cities stand as
sponsors to those musical institutions
and make up the yearly deficit.
opera and symphonic musical or
CARNATIONS in America have to de-
pend upon the enterprise of private
.mpresarios for tEeir propagation and
upon the support of the people for
their financial success.
10 is also wyll-known fact that
the American public even i'm the small
Ter cities Of the country is much
more discriminative and less easily
satisfied with musical performances
of mediocre merit than those abroad.
The musical public of one city be-
tween New York and Chicago Of more
than half a million inhabitants pre-
fers to subscribe a considerable sum
Of money every year TO bring to its
people several Of the leading orches-
tras Of the country rather than es-
tablfsh an orchestra Of its own Of
secondary standing.
Then it must also be remembered
that TO obtain first-class music and
musicians in America requires a
greater outlay of money than in Eu-
rope
There are many fine musical direct
ors in Germany and other countries
who are happy TO act as second and
third assistant conductors at small
opera houses. who receive salaries
which urskUIed clerks in mercantile
houses IN this country would despiss.

certainly rough on the choir, and the
benefit to the singer is uncertain.

This way, the teachers have an

Claude Debussy's opera "Pelleas and
Melisaude." was first produced eleven
years ago in Paris French critics at

FORTUNATE indeed is Atlanta,
and the South in securing the Me-
tropolitan Opera Company. Grand
Opera throughout the country is be-
ing more cordially received than ever
before. There is an awakening of
high class opera in this country. The
grand opera season has Just closed
in San Francisco. It was a marked
success. The Philadelphia Chicago
Opera Company, under the manage
ment Of Mr.. Dipple, gave the perfor-
mances. Besides Miss Garden, the
company included Mable Riegelmal,
Dalmores, Daddi, Crabbe and Helen
Warrum. From this list can be seen
the only renowned star in the en-
tire cast was Miss Garden. We re-
greet that Miss Garden is not a mem
Der of the Metropolitan Company
and cannot be with us this season.
When we compare these singers with
the Metropolitan cast composed If
numerous world famed operate stars.
Atlantans should feed proud that they
are to be entertained with the best
music and singers possible to Sc
cure

The choir was assisted by large
chorus, and the work as a whole was
ably done. These cantatas are of a
great benefit to the singers and give
much pleasure to the public. Mr. Shell
don shows good taste in his selec-
tons.

by large audiences at the Phillip &

artists and furnishes a splendid idea

FOR CANDIDATES
FOR PRESIDENT

! Washington. ID. c., Dec. 3.--Presl-
dent Wilson's recommendation for di-
rect primary election of presidential
candidates came up in the senate TO-
day in a debate that held the body for
more than an hour. during which Sen
!ators Bristow, Cummins and others
expressed the hope that Democrats
would follow the president i'll support
iof reform which, they declared, Pro
gressive Republicans long had de-
manded
Senator Martin replied that the
Democrats were in entire accord with
the titular head and the actual head
iof the Democratic party.
Senators Bristow and Cummins re-
torted the Democratic leaders should
prove it by endorsing bills introduced
tby Progressive Republicans early in
the session Mr.. Bristow has intro
duced such bill modelled after the
Kansas law.

his words of wisdom are listened to

over the world 1t is said that he is
the one who was last to yield to the
suggestion of Chez Dodge to surren-

Curious Names.
The names of the other warriors
are also interesting. They are: Bega,
the medicine mans son; Hosh Tah,
Tom Dale, No Do Willie. He Baly,

These Indians and their medicine

Noels, San Juan county, with Briga-

Webber and Interpreter Chez Dodge.
They then travelled to Gallup where
they took the train early this morn

Fe
With the surrender of these Indians
against whom United States District
Attorney Summers Burkhart had filed
informations in the federal district
court, all show of opposition to gov
ernment authority was abandoned by
the others. The Shiprock agency is
as peaceful now as II the braves had
never dreamed of a return to the war

Orders TO rtheir movement to the bor-
der were received while they were in
the field against the Navajos.
The troops experienced difficulty in
reaching the Beautiful Mountain

wagon train was mired. They will
return by easy marches.
In U. S. Court.
The eight Indians who are now L. S.
prisoners, seemed to be much inter
ested in the court room and gazed for
minutes at the high ceiling, large win
dows and the court furniture. Judge
Pope had whispered conversation
with Father Webber and Chez Dodge,
during which the Indians looked per-
fectly at ease, smiling broadly at those
who looked at them.
At 5 O'Clock the judge asked if At
torney Francis c. Wilson had arrived
at court. AS the New Mexican went
to press, the Indians were in consulta-
ton with Mr. Wilson. who was ap-
pointed to defend them. They will be
arraigned tomorrow morning.

dinate officers about 1000 fedora
regular soldiers, and more than l,0ol
people of the Weather class of Chi
huahua, who took flight rather than
face an attack by the rebels. General
Pascual Orozco and General Jose fne2
Salazar believed to be with Mercado
are under indictment returned in the
United States court in Ell Paso for yio
lation of the neutrality law. Salazar
is out on bond, but Orozco never was
arrested.
Villa has little hope that his sol
diers would be able to overtake the
federals who left chihuahua several
days before the fact of their fight be-
came known.
That Mercado, after handing over
the portfolio Of state to Frederic Moye
civil governor ad interim, should offer
to surrender on behalf of himself and
his subordinates and then fly to the
border, was regarded by Villa as an
unusual procedure.
No Comment by Carranza.
Hermosillo, Mex, Dec. 3.-General
Carranza declined today to comment
on the news from ,Juarez that several
federal generals were sending commits
sioners to treat with the revolutions
lists.
You will see whether I receive
them when the time comes" said the
constitutionalst commander. The
news that Chihuahua had offered it.
self as rebel prize was received with
satisfaction by constitutionalist lead
ers who considered it proof of the
falling of General Huerta's military
power
There was some doubt as to Car.
ranza's attitude should the federal
commanders wish to ally themselves
with the revolutionary movement. At
the beginning of the present revolu.
tlon Carranza allowed 80 days in
which he would accept such offers.
The only former federal army Off
Ger prominently connected with the
revolution is General Felipe Angeles,
secretary of war in Carranza's provi
sional cabinet. He was one of the
few regular army generals who up
held President Madero and never rec
ognized the Huerta government.

men caught in Mondays slide in the
Golden Sycle mine, volunteers today
continued the task of digging their
way through yesterdays second slide.
So dangerous was the work considered
that only volunteers from the Golden

from the third to the ninth had been

100000 tons of dirt and rock had gone
down. So severe was the strain that
the vein was split 100 feet from the
side and great cracks, resembling
earthquake fissures, were opened. Mrs,

She was taken from the mouth of the
shaft last night in an almost hysterl-
