JUDD, Assistant Manager . <UHE INSTRUMENT OF THE IMMORTALS QOMETIMES people who want a Steinway think it economi- cal to buy a cheaper piano in the beginning and wait for a Steinway. Usually this is because they do not realize with what ease Franz Liszt and convenience a Steinway can at his Steinway be bought. This is evidenced by the great number of people who come to exchange some other piano in partial payment for a Steinway, and say: "If I had only known about your terms I would have had a Steinway long ago!" You may purchase a new Steinway piano with a cash deposit of 10%, and the bal- ance will be extended over a period of two years. Trices: $875 and up Convenient terms. Used pianos taken in exchange.

Beach 6964 f Overture to the Opera "Oberon" . Carl Maria von Weber (Born at Eutin, Oldenburg, December 18, 1786; died at London, June 5, 1826.) "Oberon; or, the Elf-king's Oath," a romantic opera in three acts, book by James Robinson Planche, music by Carl Maria von Weber, was first performed at Covent Garden, London, on April 12, 1826. |l Weber conducted. The cast was as follows: Rezia, Mary Anne Paton; Mermaid, Mary Anne Goward; Fatima, Mme. Vestris; Puck, Harriet Cawse; Huon, John Braham; Oberon, Mr. Gownell; Scherasmin, acted by Mr. Fawcett, "but a bass singer, named Isaacs, was lugged in head and shoulders to eke out the charming quatuor, 'Over the Dark Blue " (Waters.' The first performance in Boston was in Music Hall by the Parepa- Rosa Company, May 23, 1870.* The first performance in Germany of "Oberon" in "its original shape" .was at Leipsic, December 23, 1826. *The cast was as follows: Rezia, Mme. Parepa-Rosa; Fatima, Mrs. E. Seguin; Puck, Miss Geral- idinc Warden; Sir Huon, William Castle; Scherasmin, A. Laurence (sic); Oberon, G. F. Hall; Mermaid, Miss Isaacson (?). Carl Rosa conducted. A song "Where Love is, there is Home,'' arranged by Howard T Glover from a theme in one of W eber's pianoforte sonatas, was introduced. The audience was not large, and it was cool. fThe part of Rezia was then taken by Miss Canzi, and that of Sir Huon by Vetter. Catherine Canzi, daughter of a Hungarian mother, was born at Baden, Austria, in 1*05. She si tidied with several ten iers, and became the pupil of Salieri in 1819. She sang at court concerts in 1821, appeared at the ' Court Opera House in operas by Rossini, and visited German opera houses as a "guest." In 1822 she went to Milan, where she studied with Banderali. She sang at La Scala in May, 1823, in Rossini's "Barbiere di Siviglia" and "L'Inganno Felice," sang with success in other Italian opera houses, re- turned to Germany in 1825, and was engaged for the Leipsic opera house. She visited London and ' Paris in 1826, but did not make a sensation. In 1827 she became a member of the Stuttgart opera h )use company, and remained there about ten years. In 1830 she married Wahbach, the stage manager of the opera house. She retired with a pension given by the King of Wurtemberg. Free Offer to 'Piano Teachers The First Quarter of the First Year of the wsxc Siu<.lou.i:s Piano Has been as highly praised as it has been widely used, but the editors, seeking perfection, have just revised and enriched this beginners' book. In accord with the progressive methods of today both clefs are used at the start; and in order to give the beginner an abundance of material the 56 pages of these first nine lessons have been crowded as full of attractive music as possible. We want every user of the course and every wide-awake teacher to have a free copy of this new edition, therefore send at once your full name and address with the number of your piano pupils to OLIVER D1TSON COMPANY, DePt. 21 BOSTON 10, MASS. (This offer expires May 15th) A new version prepared by the royal conductor Josef Schlar and the librettist Josef Lauff was brought out at Wiesbaden in May, 1900, as one of festal performances in which William Hohenzollern took special interest. For an account of the revision see the Monthly Musical Record (London), July 1, 1900. * * * Weber was asked by Charles Kemble in 1824 to write an opera for Covent Garden. A sick and discouraged man, he buckled himself to the task of learning English, that he might know the exact meaning of the text. He therefore took one hundred and fifty-three lessons of an Englishman named Carey, and studied diligently, anxiously. Planche sent the libretto to Dresden an act at a time. Weber made his first sketch on January 23, 1825. The autograph score contains this note at the end of the overture: "Finished April 9, 1826, in the morning, at a quarter of twelve, and with it the whole opera.

Price, - $2.50. COPYRIGHT, 1903, BY MARY BOWDEN CARROLL. Press of POPP & HOGAN, San Jose, Cal. TO Mrs. Fannie P. McGehee, A friend, tried and true, I affectionately dedicate this volume. PREFACE. Ten years in Paradise. Leaves from a society reporter's note-book. By Mary Bowden Carroll http://www.loc.gov/resource/calbk.169 It is with pleasure that I present this volume to the public. Not a single fact in it has been exaggerated, and the conditions described are true even to the smallest detail. I am no stranger, for a residence of a quarter of a century here, and nearly twenty years of active work on the local newspapers have made me familiar with this valley and its people. This work was not prepared in the interest of any organization, but in the hope that it might, to some extent, be the means of attracting desirable people to this fertile valley, where Dame Nature wears her brightest robe through all the year, and where are found sun-kissed bowers, cool glades, and hills bedecked with myriads of flowers, as if by the touch of some fairy wand the choicest blossoms had been showered over all this favored land. MARY BOWDEN CARROLL. Endorsement of Chamber of Commerce. The Chamber of Commerce of the County of Santa Clara hereby endorse the work published by Mary Bowden Carroll, entitled “Ten Years in Paradise—Leaves from a Society Reporter's Note- Book.” The book truthfully portrays the past and present conditions of Santa Clara Valley, and meets with our approval.
