3 Mozart’s “Don Giovanni’ an 
opera which retains it place among 
$ the world’s masterpieces, will be the 
notable addition to the repertory of 
_ the Boston Opera Company during 
the coming week. The revival has 
_ been brought about by Director Rus- 
- sell in response to many requests for 
a Mozart opera. Now that the prom- 
ise is about to be realized, the predic- 
_ tion seems a safe one, that so carefully 
has it been planned that those who 
_ have been eager for it will find that 
their waiting has been more than 
_ worth while. 
Not alone owing to the fact that 
Piciix Weingartner, who is without a 
_ peer as an interpreter of Mozart, will 
superintend the final rehearsals and 
- direct the premiere performance on 
Friday night, is this assurance given, 
but also because the cast assembled 
_ will be one fully equal to the severe 
demands of the score. In fact the 
3 east will be an all-stellar one, with 
Mme. Emmy Destinn as Donna Anna 
gy Miss Alice Nielson as Zerlina 
_ Singing in opera in Boston for the first 
- time in two years. 
__ Scenically the work gives Mr. Ur- 
an unusual scope and that he has 
‘availed himself of it, the seven truly 
| beautiful sets which he has designed 
= oo will afford proof. 
On Monday evening Verdi’s 
“Otello” and his masterwork, will be 
sung for the first time under Mr. 
_ Weingartner’ s baton. 
_ Wednesday night Mr. Weingartner 
ill conduct “Il Trovatore” and as 
_ Azucona, Mme. Schumann-Heink will 
sing for the second time. The an- 
nouncement of the first appearance of 
the great contralto at last Saturday’s 
“matinee resulted in every seat being 
‘sold a week ahead of time. 
_ For the Saturday matinee, beginning 
at 1.30, “Tristan und Isolde” is an- 
‘nounced with last week’s cast save in 
one notable instance. The Isolde will 
“be Mme. Minnie Saltzmann-Stevens, 
an American singer. 
— On Saturday evening the first pop- 
ular priced presentation of “Mme. 
Butterfly” will be given.

Wenham wells suffer from the low 
level to which Salem has reduced 
Wenham Lake. Patrick Kavanagh 
had to drill 69 feet before finding an 
abundance of moisture; and in doing 
it discovered that his house is founded 
upon a rock (a ledge, in fact). E. 
R. Anderson, Esq., is taking his turn 
at well-driving. 
Joseph F. Lynch has been reap- 
pointed game warden for 1913, and is 
on the watch for infractions of the 
game laws. Mr. Lynch‘s report on 
the Charlestown prison compares in- 
terestingly with Dr. G. L. Cady’s ob- 
servations there. Mr. Lynch saw 
the comfortable cells and the abundant 
food; Dr. Cady the dark, ill-smelling 
cells and the cold meals. Mr. Lynch 
was impressed with the excellence of 
the goods manufactured by prison la- 
bor; Dr. Cady with how little pris- 
ioners produce compared with what 
they might make, and the consequent 
habits of slowness and even idleness 
they contract. Both agree that prison 
1s the place to keep out of. 
Last Saturday afternoon the Vil-
