The Judge started a little, and whan b* saw the look on the President's face h* perceived he was in no trifling mood. Hs answered evasively, however: “I hava't heard anything particnl— shout it.

Jennlng’i London Letter In the world J Aa I wrote to yon lately abont tbe appa rent decline of opera in England it ia only right that I should record tbe sudden end unexpected revival it baa undergone et Her Majesty’s Theatre, owing to the ap- pearauoe of a new prima donna, a Hun garian named Etelka Gerater. She only sang lut Tuesday night for tbe first time, snd already her fortune is made—lucky women! She bu jumped from obsrartty to popularity snd great wealth in leu than s week. Soarely sny body, exoept a few musicians who know everything, had heard a word about her, and when she oarne on tbe stage as Anima in “Som- nambula" she met with no “reception" whatever. It wu a very different story before she got half through her evening's work. Tbe audienoe st onoe reoognized tbe faot that a great star bail appeared, and twice more this week hss she bad to repeat her performance, and it may safely be said that her voioe is worth at least 41250,000 a year to her while it lasts. Wbo wouldn't be a prima donna? Mme. Gerater is lnokier than any heiress of tbe day. The moment it was telegraphed over Europe that she bad made a great success, engsgements poured in upon hsr from Paris, 8t. Petersburg and Vienna, in which oity she is to take np the repertories hitherto filled by Patti. All thus arrange ments have been made in leu than three days.
