House while she is attending to her du-
ties at Abbey's. The golden diva is learn-
ing Italian as fast as a Tuscan profmeor
can teach her and she means to cross
Broadway before long. She is tilted with
ambition to take a musical fell out of
the great composers, and she considers
Jacobowski but a stepping stone to We.»

In their present troupe of prime donnas
they have no less than five American
singers of distinction. Mme“. Eamon.
Nordica. Sanderson. De Lussan and Hill.
The Queen of Brilliants believes in even

would enjoy better luck if it secured six
native singers by adding the name of
Russell to its list. of primn donnas. With
