ELITE CONCERT COMP ANT. The Elite Concert Company of Portland, George B. Barstow, manager, gave an entertainment at the Opera House, Norway, Wednesday evening, February 12th. The audience was small.

Charles Fay of Cambridge, Mass. It is reported from London that Mapleson contemplates another season of Italian opera in New York with Nilsson, Trebelli, Sembrlcb, Galassi, Scalchi and Gerster in his company. He, or the reporter, promises too much to inspire confidence in the truth of the story. The able New York correspondent of the Boston Transcript says: other incident in the musical world is the welcome news that a new cast is to be provided for which is to be transferred to Theatre. This is a graceful and sensible confession on the part of Mr.

Carte that his company is not what it should be, and that the criticisms upon it were iust. With new singers and in a new house where the acoustic properties are better and where the surroundings are more agreeable to the eye, the opera may become popular, although I hardly look for such a result. Too much of the music is dry, and too much of the libretto is wit that loses a large part of Its point when Concerning the promised visit to this country of the pianist Vlamimi de Pachmann, the correspondent of a New York periodical, writes: De Pacbmann comes in the spring and gives a series of Chopin concerts, I can promise my readers a treat. He is as admittedly the Chopin player of the world as Von Billow Is Its Beethoven expounder. Those who have heard Liszt In bis prime may remember pianos and planisstmos like De but for combined rightness of apprehension, poetic fancy and delicacy and finish of execution, no one on this side of the Atlantic has ever listened to anything to equal the Chopin music.

The past year has been an exceptionally successful one, and the members are to be congratulated that with an increase of more than 8500,000.00 in premium receipts its losses by death were nearly 8100,000.00 less than the preceding year, which, with increased interest receipts enabled the Company to add nearly 82,000,000 00 to its assets, and largely increase Its net surplus. The Company has already paid to its policy holders over 8107,500,000.00, or more than 84J per cent of its entire premium receipts, which, with its invested assets, show a gain of nearly 21 per cent on each dollar paid in by the policy holders.

Burial In the Winter Rheumatism is moat prevalent because exposure to the cold and wet drives the blood from the surface of the body, and congestion of the liver and kidneys. These guns are thus unable to perform their functions of eliminating the impurities and lactic acid, which are taken up by the blood and deposited in the Joints and tissues, resulting In the paii.s and acbes we call rlieuma tism. Hood's Sarsaparilla has had great success in curing this disease, both chronic and inflammatory. Acting promptly on the blood, It neutralizes the lactic acid, expels all impurities, and restores the liver and kidneys to natural action.
