THE AUGUSTA HERALD.
ARGO A JESTER'S GOSSIP.
Dick Brothers says;
The damage from the recent cold
wave has been widespread over the
stute and In addition to ruining the
cotton already planted, will have the
effect of delaying further crop prep
arations.
Doctors Are Puzzled.
The remarkable recovery of Ken
neth Mclver. of Vaneeboro, Me., Is the
subject of much Interest to the med
loal fraternity and a wide circle of
friends. He says of his case: "Owing
to severe Inflammation of the Throat
and congestion of the Lungs, throe doc
tors gave me up to die, when, as a
last resort. I was Induced to try Dr.
King's New Discovery and I am happy
to say. It saved my life." Cures the

Bartlett, Frazier ft Carrington say:

clined to come in.

NEY'S EXPECTORANT.

Bailey ft Montgomery say:
As to the future developments in the
market, it can onl ybe said that the
bulla who understood to advance
prices have met with considerable
success and as no formidable opposi
tion Is likely to be encountered, the
presumption is that they may put
prices still higher.
For Gravel ute STUART’B GIN and
BUCHU.
Jones & Shutt say:
Should the weather eontinuounfav
orable for some time it'ls probable
that the bull movement will make fur
ther decided progress. It is also pos
sible that the moderate qunntlty of
cotton yet held on plantations and at
uncounted interior towns will be held
all the firmer after this advance, in
stead of being pressed for sale.
(Financial.)
Granger issues should be favored by
the bulls; R. 1., U. P.. etc* may, w<>
believe, be bought with more confi
dence now. We are very bullish on
Smelter. B. R. T. is being bought
by a strong pool. It should work high
er.
Bull talk is also heard on C. A.,
C. F. 1. is agaitj tipped for better
ment. Erie and S. R. should be
bought confidently. M. K. and T. Is
tipped for higher prices. We continue
very bullish on Reading. S. P. is re
ported as ready for a good advance
from Harriman quarters. Most of tht
other active issues are In trading po
sition, swinging with the market.

NEW YORK, March 26.—The mar

The south bought In the local market.
At 11:45 o’clock local prices were Arm

The local spot gnarket. was quiet at
an advance of 10 points at. 11.75 for
middling uplands; the sales were 500

CHICAGO. March 26. —Wheat open
ed weak, largely on the theory that
•horts had covered rather freely. In
addition to rather disappointing cables
there was further precipitation
throughout the winter wheat belt and
prices In tpe northwest were easier,
the receipts in that section being
again large. Corn sarted easier, with
considerable selling pressure.
Oats opened easier and tame. The
entire provision list st. the outset was
easier. There was quite a quantity of
long ribs and lard on sale. The de
mand was scattered.

ALICE NEILSEN' TALK
Continued from page t.
but the difficulties which beset the
path of an ambitious mid aspiring
student are Incredible. In saying this,
I am tiaturnll.v influenced by my own
personal experiences, but i believe
that th ( . difficulties I have had to
contend whh are nothing as compared
lo those which have been experienced
by hundreds of others.
A girl born In this country Is told
by her family and her friends that
she possesses an exceptionally good
voice. She, herself. Is conscious of
posscssllng this Heaven-born gift,
and she decided to cultivate her voice
for the purpose of singing in public.
Following on this decision, she Is
at once brought face to face with the
vital question of where and with
whom she shall study. Is she going
to aim at, grand opera, the concert
platform, or the comic opera stage?
Should Hho choose grand opera as her
career, I am afraid ahe haa no alter
native but to sail for Europe with as
little delay as poaalble. Should she
not have beep brought Into contact
wiili the more cultured unu exclusive
musical set of .\gerlen, she may he
somewhat surprised to And that In
the honi« of opera, the word ..grand"
Is Very seldom used.
Here and In England there Is a
sharp line of demarkation drawn ns
tween grand opera and eomle opera,
but In Europe the term "opera co
nitque" includes such masterpieces as
"Carmen.” "Mignon," "Manon." "II
Barbleri,” etc.; whereas, what we call
comic opera la known as "opera bout- j
IV or "operetta." and has little or no ;
claim oil the favor of the lAtln rac.ee. j
America abounds with good teach
ers, aud when I say that It la neces
sar.v to go to Buriipe to study, it Is net >
meant as a reflection on their abilities.
1 wager that 1 am as good and as loyal ;
an American as will be found In the
states; but. this is an English-speak
ing country, and its great force ia
commerce; and as a center for operat
ic study, it lacks both language, nr
tiatie atmosphere and the opportunity
or gaining practical experience. The
latter is the really insurmountable ob |
stacle which presents Itself to the
would-be student of an operatic ca- 1
reer; and, ’Sidmitting that she enn ac
quire her languages, train her voice
and get her style within a car rldp ol
her home, where is she to dehut?
Where is she to witness the various
! Interpretations of her roles by other
artists, and where Is she to gain that
finish and abandon, which comes alone
from the actual experience of the
footlights? My answer la—ltaly; and I
, name this beautiful country In prefer
' ence to any other because, apart from
its climatic and artistic advantages,
;it possesses more opera houses witn
!n a limited area than any other
place in the world. A village of 3,000
inhabitants lias its dear, little theatre,
which is always a miniature opera
house, with its tiers of boxes. Its open
| auditorium to sing into, with no bal
conies and galleries butting into the
center and cutting one’s voice In half,
j Even the si age Is constructed so that
the public siliall get the sud benefit of
the vocal efforts of the singer, and
; those who know the country will fe
' member the protruding scml-clrcle,
which protects the singer's voice from
being lost in the wings and parapher
nalia of the stage settings.
The Italian public is In itself a
teacher. If you sing a phrase musi
cally, If you invent a bar of melody
with the true note of pathos, or if you
sustain a tone until il dies into the
distance, u murmur of approval re-
wards your efforts and encourages you
to do better things without having to
wait until the end of the act to know
whether yon have satisfied the exigen
cies of your listeners. On the other
hand, that same public is merciless. A
faulty intonation, a careless scale —
even a word Incorrectly pronounoed—
will I),. deliberately hissed; and if an
artist attempts to go through a per
formance accentuating these defects,
it. may he necessary for the lmpres
sario to lower the curtain and close
the theatre; hence, the value of study
ing in Italy—for no matter how much
encouragement you may hav# from j
your teacher and how sincerely he j
may believe in your talents. It. Is from I
the public, and the public only, you I
can get the final verdict, which Justi
fies you in continuing the fight for su- j
premacy. .
It Is generally known that I pur
sued my studios with Mr. Henry Rus
sell, who occupied a prominent posi
tion amongst. London teachers when I
visited that city In ’’The Fortune Tel
ler" cnarly five years ago. He was
asked to hear me sing, and when at
the end of the performance be was
inroduced to me behind the stage,
h« fold me very bluntly—and in very
few words —that If I did nol stop
dancing and singing high E-flats seven
times a week, I would not have a shred
of voice left In two years. His frank
disapproval of my methods was rather i
a surprise after the many enconiums !
I had received from other members of
his profession. The conviction of his
sincerity made me anxious to induce
him to continue his criticism.
(Here 1 would venture to advise
every student to beware of a teacher
who Immediately flutters her Into the
belief that she Is a future Patti, who
will take the world by storm after a
ytar or two of study.
Mr. nussell carefully examined my
voice and pronounced It to be an in
strument worthy of a higher form of
art than that to which I was devot
ing my energies. He warned me that
to make the necessary changes. It
would take two- or three years' hat/
study, drulng whleh time I should he
unable to earn a cent.
Fortunately for me, Mr. Russell had
Just been offered Bn Important position
as teacher in Italy, aud I mad« up
my mind to follow him to Rome, in
which city 1 acquired the school ot
sfngng, to which I attribute a very
large portion of the successes which
l have scored In my new career,
"For the benefit of those who may
need a guiding hand, I will summar
ize as briefly as possible the nature
of the tuition I received. For six
months I was made to study breath
control and tone formation —never
separately, hut In their relation to
each other —which, to students la a
very Important point of distinction.

ercises to enable me to overcome de
fects of enunciation, which are the
birth Inheritance of English-speaking
races. Finally, equality, freedom and
the art of singing logato occupied the
second year of my studies, and how
far I was successful In acquiring these
qualities, I must, leave to my public
to judge.
"1 remember Mr. Russell's warnings
and I think I derived almost, as much
benefit from them as I did his tui
tion. 'Never aim at making your

force any of my tones. 'Never try to
Impersonate a role which Is not with
in the natural resources of your tem
perament, or your voice; never pine
over your natural limitations, but let
your knowledge of those limitations
be so complete that the public never
sees you striving for that, which It
feels you cannot attain. These, and
othor words of wisdom helped me to
avoid nomo of the snares in which
students often fall.

Mr. Russell always tells me that no
teacher can make an artist, but that
—more often—an artiat makes a teach
er. The gifts of ingnetlsm, sympa
thy and personal charm enter so
largely Into an artist's success that ,lt
is absurd for teachers to Ignore the
importance of the presence of these
factors, unu 1 think it is quite an In
jurious for studenta to depend entire
ly upon iheir Inatructors for their fu
ture success, as It is übsurd for con
ceited novices to Imagine they can
Jump Into fame without, the assist
ance of experienced and able master."
Rut, It Is more especially of Allen
Nielsen and her experience that we

her talk. She Is even more captivat

almost as delightfully as sho sings,.
Ours Is the pleasant, task of trying
to record here something of what she
said In a brief interview—the man
ner of telling Is so hopelessly beyond
