The death of Nine Tcrese carreno
marks a great loss TO the musical
world. She was one of the compare
lively few prodigies of music whose
careers justified prophecies. her first
professional appearance dating back to
1861. To her fine technique and great
gift of expression was added a capti-
waiting charm of personality. Some
critics regard Nine. Bloomfield Zeisler
as the greater artist in a purely

REPULSE COUNTER ATTACKS.
General Petain's Men Maintain Theil
Gains.

Paris. Aug. 22.-The second day OF
the new battle of Verdun was taken
up as was to be expected, by the
desperate efforts of the Germans to
recover their lost positions. The long
artillery preparation by the French,
interrupted as it were by bad wealth
er, had given the Germans time to
mass reserves for counter-attacks.
They had withdrawn forces from their
advance lines which were too great
ly exposed to the French artillery,
massing these men together with re-
serves, around the extremities of the
sector attacked, between Avocourt
and Bezonvaux, in readiness for coun-
ter-attacks
No less than eight of these counter
attacks were made in the evening.
All of them were repulsed. The gains
of the French were maintained en-
tirely further advances were made
and a large number of prisoners were
added to the previous total.

almost run it's course, and realizing
this, he has made his will bequeath-
