Noted Stars Give Great Musical Treat

Last Tuesday evening st. Johns
bury was given one of the finest
musical treats it has ever been her
privilege to enjoy. The Boston
Opera Company's noted stars were
even better this time than they were
last spring, when they gave such a
fine concert. A large and thor
oughly appreciative audience
were gathered at this time to listen
to music that is seldom heard here.
The first part of the evening was
devoted to a concert program in
Guiding opera selections, solos,
quartettes and sextettes. The first
number, the prologue of 81 Pagliac-
CT by Leoncavallo was well sulted
to the deep rich tones of Nikola
OuIouchanoff's voice. The Duel
Scene from Faust always so much
enjoyed was especially well render
ed by Sacchetti, Littleton, and NAL
plea. Mile. Ernestine Gauthier who
so charmed the audience last year
was equally pleasing this year in
her rendering of "Habanera" from
Carmen Edgar Littleton sang aria
from Simon Boccanegra, receiving
hearty applause that showed how
greatly it was appreciated. The
Sextette from ''Lucia,' always
prime favorite, was sung with
depth of feeling and sureness OF
technique which was wonderful.
After F'Dio Possente" from Faust by
Romano Malpica, Nine. Gertrude
Hutcheson gave "Qui La Voce, Pur-
itani.' This was most diff1cult
selection and required the greatest
of technical skill in its rendering.
The remarkable way in when she
executed the variations could be
done by very few. Umberto Sac
chetti then gave celeste Aida, Aida
nv Verdi in a most pleasing manner.
All felt the spell of the music. The
nrogram was completed by quart
cite ssRigoletto'', also by Verdi.
Mile. Gauthier, Nine Hutchinson,
Malpica, and Sacchetti combined 10
give a most finished productlon-
s'Cavalleria Rusticana tMascae-
nil was surely credit TO tne COLL
many. Nine. DiGabbi as ~Santuzza
took a difficult part in a remaFkaDIe
manner. Mile. Gauthier as Lola
continued to call forth the admlra-
ton that she had won carrier III
the evening Mama Lucia, the
wine shop keeper, was interpreted
bv Mile. Rondero, and Gatti was en-
inently well qualified to carry the
role of "Turridu." "Alflo part
was sung by Malpioa. The clever act-
ing as we'll as the wonderful Singing
will long be remembered ana there
is no doubt but what the boston
Opera Company will always nave
most hearty welcome by st. JOINS
bury audiences. 91aH 3Fa

Washington's dislike for slavery and
his humanity to his slaves are beyond
question. Nevertheless we find him
writing: And what sort of sickness
is Betty Davis? A more lazy, deceit
full, and impudent hussy is not to be
found in the United States"
When Washington was elected pres
ident he wrote to Knox: In conf
dence, / tell you that my
movement to the chair of government
will be accompanied by feelings not
unlike those of culprit who is going
to the place of his execution"
Washington kept his hot temper un-
der iron control. He abhorred pro-
family And here are two touches Of
nature that make us all akin: At Mon
mouth. finding the traitor Lee in re-
treat, he galloped up to him at full
speed and swore at him until the
leaves shook on the trees
like an angel from heaven" In a cab
met meeting some one handed him
cartoon representing him as being
publicly executed by the guillotine.
jefferson thus writes of the scene:
The president was much infiamed.

cannot command himself. ran on to
the personal abuse which had been
bestowed on him, defied any man on
earth to produce one single act of his
since he had been in the government
which was not done on the purest mo-
tives: that he had never repented but
once having slipped the moment Of
resigning his office, and that was
every moment since; that by God he
would rather be in his grave than in
his present situation"
Washirg gton was no freak of genius,
springing to life full-armed for the
work to which he was called. He was
a consistent continuance of the fam
lily pattern. He increased in wisdom
and stature. and in favor with God
and man" He grew, just as We all
grow.
The Washington who was so embar-
rassed by the thanks of the Virginia
house of Burgesses that he could not
speak. and thus called forth Speaker
Robinson's immortal sit down. Mr..
Washington; your modesty is equal to
your valor. and that surpasses the
power OF any language that | possess.
was a very different Washington from
the Washington who awed the great
of all the world.
Had Washington died before he be-
came commander-in-chief he would be
remembered merely as a gallant Colo
NAL soldier and rich planter: II just
after the surrender of Yorktown, as
one of the great generals OF the
world: II after the Federal convention.
