Emma Calve, who to-night makes her te-entry at the Metropolitan Opera- House as Carmen. ‘Taking the “last turning of all,” the visitor was speedily made aware why Mme, Calve chooses this out-of-the-way corner for her abiding place, for sud- denly a flood of melody poured through the closed door, filling the little pas- vage-way with music such as one would fo far to hear.

And her visitor had come to ask this tadiant being if she were losing her beauty! “But you did say, Mile. Zalve’—Calve in “Madame” only to the public—on the day of your arrival that you did iot want your pictures taken because you were losing your beaut: Calve laughed, “Une facon de parler, my dear, noth- ing more. I never had any beavty to lose,” Mile, Calve sald it simply and quite as {f she ineant it. “I do not change much, I think,” she went on, “I never was beautiful, #0 there is no loss to fear.
