The repertory Of Mr.. Hammerstein's first

Moreover, Italian opera dominated it, and
the language used was Italian For the next
season he engaged some singers from Paris
and hit upon the notion of specializing in
French opera. His second prospectus an
nounced eight novelties, all of them French
but one. Of the eight promised he pro-
duced only four, but he gave two other
French works in place of the three which he
omitted. With this list he challenged popu-

of the subscription methods of the Metro

vent thousands from enjoying the enter
