NGG 5 0 80a,co SS veka es RHEE April 1, 1902 oie aseeutiaimente A Great Ovation. HE OVATION GIVEN EMMA NEVADA last evening by the people of Nevada county was the grandest and most, demonstrative of any ever tendered to any woman who has ever appeared on the stage of Nevada Theater, and no one in the audience felt prouder and appreciated the sincere testimonial of the hearts «gf our people than did the charming and famous song-queen herself. Her popularity is indicative of the fact that the to~ tal proceeds of the concert amounted to $1,035—something that has never been done in the history of this city for a single night’s entertainment. ‘ Those who were not present at Emma Nevada’s concert missed the greatest musical treat of their lives, Long before the opening piece was rendered the theatre was crowded to its utmost capacity and standing room was at a premium. When the famous singer made her appearance on the stage, which had been tastefully decorated with the National colors, a thunder of applause greeted the little diva which _made the building fairly tremble, and it continued for some time. Finally it ceased, and after a moment’s stillness the _iittle singer burst forth into song: And such singing! No! se ‘oné can properly describe it in words. It was grand, captivating, superb, divine, and the echo of her delightfullymusical voice will linger for years in the hearts of those who were fortunate to hear her. She sang in all fourteen pieces, the niost she ever sang at any one concert, as she afterward stated in ccnversati6én with a TRANSCRIPT reporter. But it must be remembered that Emma Nevada was at ome with her own Nevada coumty people, and felt more like singing, probably, than on any other occasion. She had expressed her willingness to sing any piece of music desired for the pleasure of our people, and she more than fulfilled her promise. In addition to the classical music enumerated on the program which was rendered in English, German, French and Italian dialects, respectively, the songtress gave as encores the following: “Home, Sweet Home,” “Last Rose of Summer;” “Annie Laurie,” “Old Kentucky Hame,” “Bird in the Woods.” * In accordance with a request made through the TRANSCRIPT by a lady, she sang “The Mocking Bird,” and did it grandly. It was a distinctly fashionable audience that filled the gallery of the theatre last night, and a more enthusiastic one was never seen in this city. Emma’s reception was.complete. . Three electric cars arrived here at 8 o’clock from Grass Valley with about one hundred and fifty people who came up to attend the concert. It was a pretty sight and the “oldest inhabitant” was astonished to see three electric cars standing on the principal street of this city. The world-famous songstress has held 80 concerts during her present tour of the United States, which began at the city of Boston, last November. Before coming to California she filled engagenients in all of the principal cities of the Southern States. From here she goes to Marysville, where she will sing to-morrow night, and thence to San Francisco. Emma Nevada and her talented musicians took their departure from our city this morning on the 9 o'clock train, and quite a number gathered at Sage to bid her farewell. \ Both she and her husband, Dr. Palmer, were profuse in the praises of onr little mountain city and the genuine hospitality of our people. The singer expressed her delight and appreciation at the cordial reception she had received and says she will ever gherish the pleasant memories! associated with her present trip tothe place of her childhood. She said that she felt especially grateful to the Native Daughters for the many grand courtersies shown her, and that she hopes to visit her native county again within a year or two, and will appear at Grass Valley. When the sweet and talented singer took her final farewell, she shook hands with everybody on the depot: platform, including the many little boys who had gathered there to get a last look at the charming, and world-famous singer. Emma Nevada has come and gone, but the memory of her eventful visit and the sweetness and rapture of her heaven-born musical voice will dwell in the hearts of our people as long as mortal life itself shall last. Nevada City has been exceptionally honored. tee Mrs. E. A. Moore, president of Laurel Parlor, -N. D. G. W., received the following telegram from Emma Nevada this afterncon, which was sent from Colfax: °“ “Convey love and thanks to the people of my old home.” ; . “Emma NEVADA.” all on EdSchmidt when you want anything in the tobacco line. _tf : —y Ranch For Sale at a Bargain.

A LITTLE NONSENSE. A Stout Man Demonstrates the Harm Done by Fool Diet. ; “Are you aware, sir, what you are doing?” The stout, florid faced man in thé restaurant, who was about to help himself to a generous portion of mince pie, looked up in astonistiment at the nervous, thi little individual opposite. ““What do you mean?” he asked. “T have been watching yon,” said the nervous man, “eating your dinner, and impelled as I am by love of humanity I cannot see you leave this. table without a protest at the diet which you are killing yourself with. First, you had fish chowder; no pretein, but slight hydrocarbonates. Then you had corned beef and cabbage, containing full 80 per cent of deleterious matter. Then you had pie, with a mountain of sugar. Are you aware, sir, that this can only be digested by the duodenum? Think of it!

“That, sir,” replied the thin man, ‘fs no argument at all.

It only shows what harm can be done to humanity by fool diet.”—Life. A Story of Lincotn. General John H. Littlefield, who studied under Abraham Lincoln, told this‘ anecdote of him in Sticcess: “Al] clients knew that, with ‘Old Abe’ as their lawyer, they would win their case if it was fair; if it was not, that it was a wa8te of time to take it to him.

Many think that musical artists should present their services for concerts given for charitable objects. Mme. Eames is also of this opinion, but she recently in London put the matter in a new light to those who invited her to appear gratuitously. Mme. Eames was one afternoon at Lord Charles Beresford’s, and the next day received a letter from Lady Beresford saying that two ladies present had wanted to ask her a favor, but in her presence had lost courage. “But I am not afraid of you,” wrote Lady Beresford, and proceeded to say that the ladies in question, who happened to be extremely wealthy, wished her to sing for nothing for a certain charity. Mme. Eames immediately sat down and wrote a reply. It was her duty, she said, to save herself as much as possible for her operatic performances at Covent Garden, which were stipulated by contract to be two days apart so that she might give her freshest and best to the public. She felt, however, greatly attracted. toward the charity named, and would make only one condition regarding the~ donating of her services. She had received 300 guineas (about $1,500) for singing at Mr. W. W. Astor’s and about the same amount at other private concerts. She would gladly sing for nothing at the charity concert if each one of the ladies interested, who had so kindly asked. her, would donate 300 guineas to the object for which the concert was given. As yet no replies from “the ladies interested” have been received. But Lady Beresford, not being one of the “interested ladies,” appreciates more fully the humor of the situation.—Saturday Evening Post. Baking Powder Makes the bread more healthful.
