In Chicago

Gioconda for Rose Raisa, Le Prophete for Charles Marshall, Werther for Mary Garden, will probably be added to Chicago operatic repertory next season. Also it is likely that Don Carlos will be mounted for Chaliapin, Gianni Schicchi for Galeffii; Pearl Fishers for Schipa, Lucrezia Borgia for Raisa, and Pilleas and Melisande for Garden and Baklanoff.

Three new sopranos have signed on. They are: Toti dal Monti, Elvira de Hidalgo, Elsa Gentner-Rischer.

It was announced that German operas proved financially no good.

Mme. Wanda Landowska, Polish virtuoso, is a modern harpsichordist. A fortnight ago she performed charmingly upon her quaint old instrument to the accompaniment of the Chicago Orcestra.
