MONARCHS D.EFIED
BYPROUDDIV

When consideration Is taken Of the
lowly positions from which some
stage divinities rose, the reverence In
which they were held appears all the
more remarkable. Most interesting
OF all is Catherine Gabrielle. the
daughter OF a cook in the household
of one Bishop GabrielIi. With the as
sistance OF this worthy ecclesiastic,
whose name she assumed, she was
soon in a position to receive the re
ward due to her abilities.
Although described by the eminent
critic, DR.. Burney, as "the most in
telligent and best bred Virtusso he
had ever conversed with" she proved
a worthy rival Of Cuzzoni in all those
qualities which had made the latter
the despair of those hapless beings
on whom she chose to practice her
whims- There are many records. hu-
morous and otherwise, OF those who.
imagining their love suits favoFably
entertained, attempted to act accord
inGly. Their humiliation was gsner-
ally in direct ratio to the nobility of
their rank. Nevertheless, she showed
herself at all times favorably dis
posed toward those OF the station Of
life from which she had sprung.
When the King Of Naples com
manded her to sing before him she
took II into her head to refuse with
an obstinacy for which she was re-
warded with ten days In prison. 1t
proved, however, nothing more than
a welcome variation Of her regular
routine. The ten short days were
made to seem shorter. thanks to q
series of the most sumptuous ban:
quets and costly entertainments that
money and influence could provide.
To these curious "affairs' all the in
mates Of the prison were invited. and
for their pleasure the singer rendered
her most famous songs In q manner
that would have held speelbound her
noblest auditors. At the expiration
OF her term OF punishment" she had
won the alteration OF her unfortunate
friends. to whom she distributed aims
with boundIess liberality, and whose
society she abandoned with sincere
SORROW.
Catherine II OF Russia The queen
was anxious to secure her services
and with apparent munihcence re-
quested her to name her price. Cab
rielli was not satisfied with mere ex-
pressions Of praise unless given in
with some much more
material evidence of appreciation,
and her royal patroness was startled
with a demand OF 1--WE thousand du-
cats. Five thousand ducats! My
field marshals receive THAR eX-
claimed the astonished sovereign.
Then let your field marshaIs sing
for you" replied the imperturbable
singer.

Rabuud New Director,

France is particularly near to the
hearts OF the United States today
therefore II came as welcome news
also, that the Boston Symphony Or
chestra has chosen Henri Rabaud as
conductor for it's season OF music.
The name Of Rabaud is known to
US as composer. Walter Damrosch
gave his symphony in E minor here
last February with the Symphony So
siety Of New York At that time one
spoke Of Rabaud as one OF the young
er French composers The work was
beautiful, but now wholly individual,
rejecting. as the young composer 80
often does, the study influence OF his
student days.

'The contemplation OF beauty
Just pause for a moment-go to see
a beautiful picture, or listen to beau
tiful music-surely the thought OF its
entrance into the winter days that
are coming offers a benison-a re-
newal of spirit-to the imaginations
that haye been overweight with
war.
"Open the windows, light and God
flow in" We may open the windows
OF the soul by way or the arts that
bring uplift, and thereby sustain our
faith in the triumph of what is best
in life
The opening of Washington's music
season brings just that element
into the life of the city. A
surcease from the hours OF strain
and a refreshment at that fountain

In harmonious accord"
The French orchestra from the
Paris Conservatoire, sent officially
to America by the French govern
