NINE. MELBA'S CONCERT.
The Famous soprano sings with All
Deauty of Voice.

II is to be hoped that all the young
aspirants for operate fame VINO intest
this city were present yesterday atter.
noon in Carnegie Hall II IL also hoped
that they were present, not In the habi-
tual humor OF third rate singers and in

that they could do it so much better

that they cannot do II half az we'll Let

This is the overture to the publica-
ton OF a plain news fact. to wit, that
Nellie Melba. formerly 81 prima donna Of
the Metropolitan Opera House. gave a
concert AT Carnegie Hall with the aid

and Walter Damrosch. its conductor. 1t
