Paris, September 15.���The un- sitisfactory condition of the cipher messages which reach tlio powers IVoin their representatives in China, especially at Pekin, has brought forward prominently the suggestion of an international conference at some European capital. A point . which gives additional weight to tiie plan is the appreciation of the difficulty of reaching amicable results among the ministers at Pekin, many of whom have been antagonistic in their policy during their stay there during the last few years. Could they obtain a direct and quick communication with the home governments, the tangles 'would be straightened out, Tout under the present conditions, this seems to be impossible. An argument advanced against the proposed conference is the difficulty of the powers being represented by men fully conversant with all the latest phases of tho far eastern question. Some of the details which will be urged in connection with tho peace terms are discussed in diplomatic circles here. One point strongly urged on the part of Prance, is the permanent continuance of the international agreement now in force, prohibiting the exportation of arms to China. This is believed to be a strong measure of precaution against a recurrence qf the determined assaults on foreigners. A demand is also made for a reduction of the Chinese forces holding Taku and \"Woo-Sung, which are tho main coast defences, respectively, of Peking and Shang-Hai, in order to keep open a more secure route to these cities. The question of indemnity, and how it will be paid, is a serious problem. The indemnities arc divided into three classes, those payable to the states, to the societies, and to individuals. The amount which the various states will demand will reach an enormous sum, and the ability of China to meet them solely with cash payments, causes concern. Great Britain's indemnity, it is believed, will not be less than 00,000,000 francs, while Russia',' will not be far below this. France's indemnity will be in tho neighborhood of 30,000,- 000 francs, and that of tho United States, it is thought, will not be so large, on account of most of the American troops going from the Philippine Islands. In order to meet these great claims, it is possible that some reforms in the internal administration of China may be -necessary, though their nature is not yet considered. It is said that Russia has not heard from M. de Giers, her minister at Pekin, for some days, and ; the messages of M. Pichon, the French minister at the Chinese capital, are also delayed, thus not jjermjttingjtlie goy.ernnient__to_,gain^ any\" new knowledge in regard to the evacuation terms, which are -left to these officials. It is asserted here that France and Russia are\" acting in perfect harmony, and that they will certainly remain in accord in their negotiations for peace. FATAL EXPLOSION IN CHINA Blows Up,a Fatigue Party. London, September 17.���The British commander at Taku, engaged in destroying gun powder at Tung Chow, was blown up. Eleven Welsh fusileers were wounded, two British-Indian soldiers were killed, and thirteen British-Indian soldiers were wounded, and captain Hill and eleven British-Chinese infantry soldiers were wounded. High Priced Ocean Trip. London, September 17.���Probably the greatest amount ever paid by a family party for passage on an Atlantic liner is the ��1600 ($8000) put up by Andrew Carnegie tor the passage of his party of seventeen ou the Deutschland from Southampton to New York. The Deuts- chland's first cabin passenger list on her next voyage to New York brings more than ��10,000. An American, with his wife, sister and three servants are paying $2000 for their passage. Another American is paying ��250 for himself and wife. So great is the demand for cabins on the new German record- breaker that all the officers' rooms are booked. The Deutschland is being pushed to the utmost. She will make six trips across the Atlantic this fall in two months. If the hope of the North German Lloyd line is realized the reign of tho new queen of tho transatlantic fleet will be a short one, for the builders of the Kaiser AVilholmder Grossc bolieve their next ship will eclipse tho Deutschland, as the Hamburg-American liner has eclipsed the Kaiser AVilheltn. Ll HUNG CHANG WINS OUT Is Accepted by the Powers. London, September 18.���There is no additional news from Chiua this morning. The Daily Graphic asserts that all the powers have accepted Li Hung Chang, and will probably also accept prince: Ching as negotiator. It says also that the powers'-- have agreed to insist that a central government satisfactory to the powers, shall be established in Cliina, and that full retribution shall be exacted for the attacks upon the legations. No communications, however, have yet passed between the powers concerning indemnities, aud a Berlin dispatch says it is believed there that Dr. Mumm von Schwarzenstein, the German, minister, will purposely delay negotiations until Marshall von Waldersee has arrived. Dr. Morrison, tho Pekin correspondent of the Tinies, in the course of a long dispatch, dated September (j, continues to protest against the evacuation of the capital, but he agrees Avith the Pekin correspondent of the Morning Post that the withdrawal of the Russian troops, owing to tlieir barbarous habits, would be a benefit. He asserts that further convincing proofs have been obtained that it was the intention of the empress dowager to. massacre all the foreigners. Prince Ching, he says, fails to realize the real situation, evidently being convinced that all the. powers can be squared by ��� the payment of ' a money indemnity. DON'T LIKE THE ORDERS Given to Paul Kruger. Berlin, September 17. ��� The Vossisch Zeitung points out that the singular order given by the Portuguese government to the governor of Mozambique authorizing the departure of Mr. Kruger for Europe, permits Mr. Kruger to sail only for an European port, adding : \" The government in so doing goes beyond its powers. Doubtless Lisbon is acting under pressure from Great Britaiu, whicli fears presumably that Mr. Kruger is going to the United States.\" London, September 17.���-F. W. _Reitz,=state-seei'etar-y=o��=*the=abro��� gated South African republic, is going to Paris, according to the Pretoria correspondent of the Daily Mail, from which point he will proceed to the United States, where he will probably remain. Insurrection Nipped in the Bud. San Diego, California, September 17.���The steamer Herodot brings the story of a quick suppression of an incipient insurrection at Salvador. The minister of war, Castro, was1 the' instigator of a plot to remove the prisoner, Thomas Rega- lado, aud have himself proclaimed president of the republic. In his plans to bring about the insurrection, Castro deemed it necessary to remove the colonel of the barracks, and shot him down in cold blood. It was not known until after Ins arrest for that crime that the murder was a political plot to overthrow the present government, but in tbe investigation that followed the whole scheme .was unearthed. Castro was found guilty of murder and on September 3rd he was shot by order of the president. With the death of the leader the threatened insurrection subsided. Patterson After the Nomination. Windsor, September 17.���If the Conservatives of North Essex can get Sol White out of the way, who at present is persistent in his intention to contest that riding, Hon. J. C. Patterson, retiring lieutenant- governor of Manitoba, will be tendered the nomination. William McGregor is the present Liberal member of this riding and will probably run again. STRIKERS ARE CONFIDENT Besponse Exceeded Expectations. Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, September 17.���The great strike of mine workers in the anthracite coal fields of Pennsylvania, which represents practically the hard coal output of the world began today, according to president Mitchell, of the United Mine Workers of America, who is personally directing the strike from his headquarters at Hazelton. The strike of the previous four days' effort to tie the mines, exceeded the expectation of the strike leaders. The hard coal region is divided into four great districts,. Lackawanna, Wyoming, Lehigh and Schuylkill. regions. In the first two, representing nearly ninety thousand men, the tie-up is practically complete, only One mine^ employing a few hundred men, being operated, and this the strikers say they hope to close soon. In the Lehigh region the situation is a standoff, about S000 of the 10,000 mine emplojrees having quit work. Principally because the union has comparatively little strength in the Schuylkill region and the workmen there have no decided grievance as ,iu-. other districts, the strike was not general among the 50,000 men employed. ��. The indications tonight, however, point to the closing of some mines in the last named district that operated today, despite the assertions of officials of the Pennsylvania cfc Reading Coal & Iron Company aud other companies operating iu the region that they will continue their collieries in operation. Vice grand master Fitzpatrick of the Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen addressed a secret meeting of railroaders at Parsons yesterday. After the address a lodge of trainmen was organized. Mr. Fitzpatrick will oi'gauize other lodges iu the district in the next few days. The leaders of the Miners' Union aro confident that if the coal carrying roads attempt to carry bituminous coal into the anthracite region during the strike the railroaders will stand by them. Mr. Fitzpatrick refused to say whether the brotherhood men would go out on a strike in case the railroads shipped soft coal into the Wyoming valley. He said his mission here was to organize new lodges aud strengthen those that needed strengthening. More Mills Close. ' Manchester, September 17.��� Several more mills closed today. The operators agreed that they cannot work profitably with cotton at the present prices. Great interest is felt in the result of the vote now being taken by the employers' federation, with reference to the closing of the mills for twelve days in October. The outcome will be announced at Friday's meeting. An effort is being\\jnade =to^stop^all=^ill_~including���those stocked with cotton. Manchester, September 17.��� The Manchester Textile Mercury estimates that the minimum average of stoppage for the mills will be eight weeks, although the period may be longer, and that the losses, including the wages of 100,000 workers, will be ��25,000,000. These losses are attributed to the failure of nature to supply sufficient raw material. The English manufacturer is totally dependent upon a circumscribed area of foreign supply, and those who provide this supply are now straining every nerve to consume the production at home, thus becoming formidable competitors of England. \"These competitors,\" says the Mercury, \"are the most formidable who could possibly enter the markets of the world against us. The remedy for the future is the cultivation of cotton within the realm of Great Britain. At the same time a month's suspension of buying will partially restrict the scramble for the remnants of the last crop, only purchaseable at extremely high prices, to come out of the pockets of the manufacturers, but which could never be exorted from the merchants of the distributing side of the trade.\" The Duke's Australian Trip. London, September 17.���The Colonial office, in announcing the contemplated visit of the duke and duchess of York to Australia, says: \"Although her majesty naturally shrinks from parting with her grandson for so long, a period, the queen fully recognizes the great ness of the occasion which will bring her Australian colonies into federal union, and desires to give this special proof of her interest in all that concerns the interests of her Australian subjects. Her majesty wishes at the same time to signify hor sense of tho loyalty and devotion which prompted the spontaneous aid so liberally offered by all the colonies in the South African war, and of the splendid gallantry of the colonial troops.\" MINERS' STRIKE MAY FAIL Unions' Order Net Obeyed. Hazelton, Pennsylvania, September 17.���The great struggle between the anthracite coal miners of Pennsylvania and their employers was begun today, with each side confident of winning and neither of them show any disposition to yield. With the. exception of \"a trivial incident at No. 3 colliery of the Lehigh Coal Company, where a gang of boys compelled a mule driver to seek coyer by throwing stones at him, the contest thus ftir has been entirely devoid of violence of any kind. The exact number of men who struck cannot at this time be told, as only estimates,of the number of men who did not start work were made today. - Reports received by the United Mine-workers' officials from the entire anthracite ,region were, to them, most satisfactory. In this territory, known as district No. 7, there are 10,000 men in and about the mines. . Of this number it is conservatively estimated today about 50 per cent or, S000 miners, obeyed the order of' president Mitchell to quit work. Five thousand of these belong to colleries which did not work at all, and the remaining three thousand to mines whicli worked short handed. The district south 'of this place, known as the south -side, was tied up completely with the exception of Coleraine, Beaver Meadow and Carson: washeries.'-*'. The amines at Lattimer and Pond\" creek, employing 1400 men, are working with badly crippled forces. Three of the Markle mines, over which there has been so much contention, worked all day with about 05 per cent of their men. On the west side every colliery started up today minus its union men, except at the Hazel mines where the union miners went to work iu consequence of a misunderstanding. Will Complete in Six Months. Grand Forks, September 17.��� The survey party for the proposed railway from Grand Forks to Republic is now in the .field and rushing the work ahead as fast as possible. John A. Manly, the chief engineer, says the route being laid out is a most satisfactory one and presents no especial engineering difficulties. It has not yet been definitely decided which side of the =iaver���the^road^will^folIoWr^bllt^ within a couple of weeks the selection will be made \"and then the grade stokes will be set, after which the work of construction will be commenced aud rushed to completion, The promoters expect to have dirt flying on the road within a few weeks and the line laid from Grand Forks to its Republic terminus inside the next six months. 7. ' Political Pointers. Belleville, Ontario, September 17.���The Prohibitionists of West Hastings have decided to bring out a candidate in opposition to Henry Corby, Conservative M. P., unless the Liberals choose a candidate acceptable to them. Alliston, Ontario, September 17. ���Th_ Liberals of South Simcoe have nominated Joseph Whiteside of Elmgrove, to contest the riding iu their interest at the forthcoming general election. Hamilton, Ontario, September.��� 17.���It is generally expected that the Conservative candidate for the approaching election will be Messrs. Samuel Barker and F. C. Bruce. Barker was one of the two defeated candidates in _he last general elections. . Difficulty Satisfactorily Adjusted, Fort Meyere, Florida, September 17.���A runner from Seminole camp, at Turle mountain, reports that in a big sun dance last week four Seminole braves bad a bloody fight, all being aspirants for the chief's daughter. All four were killed. The girl then drowned herself from grief for one of the dead braves. WILL REPAIR THE OLD DAM o- ^__,__ Work to Commence Today. The electric light power question was settled at the city council last night, when the members authorized tho city engineer to proceed at once with repairs to the present dam. Mayor Houston reported that B. C. Riblet had gone over the ground at the electric light power dam and recommended that the present dam be rebuilt, and tho reservoir cleaned out to the level of the intake. Mr. Riblet was opposed to going further up the creek On the ground that the cost would be very much greater, and the increase of power slight. It was pointed out that this scheme would give a storage capacity sufficient to operate the plant for eight hours without figuring on the flow of the stream,which would easily keep the plant running to its full capacity for the balance of the winter days. The aldermen approved of the idea unanimously, and on motion of aldermen Hall and Arthur it'was resolved to have the work commenced without delay. The board of works submitted a report making three recommendations, as follows: That a footpath be graded on the east side of Cedar street from Victoria to Silica streets; that the water main be extended to connect with E. C. Traves' house, corner of Hall and Observatory streets; that the surface drain in block 25 be extended 50 feet. The report was adopted. The finance committee recommended the\"payment of a budget of accounts, and that a trophy be granted for the local militia company's shoot on October 0, cost of such prize not to exceed $25. The report was adopted. Aldermen Irvine and Wilson moved that the ten foot-sidewalk on the north side of Vernon street be extended to Ward and Hall streets. Carried., ��� Aldermen Irvine and Hall moved that Hendryx street be opened up to Front street to permit the mattress works to haul machinery to their factory. Carried. AV. P. Harvey and SI. Mansfield complained of the odor arising from burning rubbish and the city stables generally. Alderman Irvine moved, seconded by alderman AVilson, that the scavengers be instructed to haul rubbish further ui) the hill. Carried. The secretary of the provincial underwriters' association wrote regarding the matter of guard wires for tho tramway system. The letter letter written by M. F. Carey, superintendent of the tramway lino, was, he . stated, forwarded to the Canadian association's expert at Toronto dieted a reply stating that experience had developed the fact that contiliuous guard wires increased the hazard as eMjned_by\\ =Mrr=Gareyr^TlTe^prMtiee='how iil^ sisted upon was a system of dead insulated guard wires erected in short sections at all important crossings of other electric systems, and it was requested that this be referred to Mr. Carey. The letter will be forwarded to the tramway company. The bylaw relating to licenses for hawkers, pedlers and transient traders was finally reconsidered and passed. The members in attendance were, mayor Houston, aldermen Hall, Morrison, Irvine, Arthur and AVilson. Bather Bad Burglars.

They came here on a business visit, and when they applied for return passage wore told that they must be treated as immigrants. This they refused to do and are now waiting an answer from the inspector. RUSSIAU TROOPS REPULSED At the Pei Tang Forts. Berlin, September 17,���Shang- Hai advices to the Frankfurter Zeitung says that Russia's policy is making a highly unfavorable impression. It appears that British troops have begun an attack upon a Chinese camp in the vicinity of Shang-Hai. Marshal von AValder- see's agent has rented quarters for him at Shang-Hai. A further dispatch to the same journal, dated September 10th says: \"A third Russian attack upon the Pei Tang' forts (north of Taku) was repulsed.\" Officers of the British battleship Centurion assert that while the Wii Sung forts.were preparing 'yesterday for action, the Centurion signalled the German fleet which prepared the cruiser Schwalbe for going to Hankow, if necessary. The Shang-Hai correspondent of the Lokal Anzeiger, wiring today, says: \"Troops in large numbers are gathering from all parts of China at Siau Fu, which has been chosen as the permanent residences of the imperials. The secretary of the German legation has refused to begin negotiations with prince Ching, saying that Dr. Mumm von Schwartzenstein is alone officially qualified for such functions.\" MANY CHILDREN SUFFOCATE In Salvation Army Nursery. \" CiNc3iNNATi,'Ohio, September 17.��� An old four story tenement building at 103 East Front street, used as the branch nursery of the Salvation Army, burned this evening, aud its occupants were so imprisoned that many were suffocated to death and many others were seriously injured. On account of the cold weather today a fire had been started in the stove for the little tots during the day, while their mothers were absent, engaged in work elsewhere. It is thought that this caused the fire through some defect in the flue. The fire occurred near the river front, the most densely populated quarter of the city.

The publication of column after column of stuff daily showing that the city of Nelson has been, robbed in the past and is now being mismanaged by blundering officials may not have any damaging effects here in Nelson where the Journalists and the interviewed are known, but the effect can only be damaging on the outside where the status of the newspaper and the animus of those interviewed are not known. Business men who have the reputation of the town at heart should be very careful in making statements wheu being interviewed by anyone connected with the Miner, a newspaper that has never had a good word for anyone or anything in Nelson since the day it passed under the management of its. present owners.

In Nanaimo the Liberals have candidate Sloan, to- retain if possible the seat vacated by AV. AV. B. Mclnnes, with the Conservative candidate as yet unknown. In AArestminster the Conservatives have tendered their nomination to county court judge Bole, and await his acceptance. Should he accept he will go against Aulay, Morrison, the sitting Liberal member. In Yale-Cariboo it is a case of lawyer MacNeill or lawyer Galliher for the seat vacated by Hewitt Bostock. Burrard has not yet had any convention, but it is generally understood that Vancouver's political parson will this time be opposed by his quondam political associate R Carter-Cotton, as the Conservative candidate. LIVELY WEDDING TRIP. Toronto Slav. The Grand Trunk railway system must be reckoned with when running records are discussed. Although several of the United States lines have achieved prominence lately for the speed of their through passenger trains, but little has been said about tho fast trains on the Grand Trunk. In nearly all the schedules valuable minutes havo been clipped off, and better service lias been installed all around. As an oxample of the speed of the Grand Trunk locomotives are capable of making, tako the trip of the special train which conveyed Henry Ledyard, son of president Led yard of the Michigan Central and his bride, nee Miss Hendrie of Hamilton, from Hamilton to AVinnipeg in pursuit of the transconti- nen tai express, which had left Toronto during the i3rogre3s of the wedding ceremony. On September 4th president Ledyard of the Michigan Central received a message from his daughter, baroness von Ketteler, widow of the murdered German representative \"at Pekin, to meet her at Yokohama, Japan. He could not go in person, so he was forced to send his son on the long journey. To send his son it was necessary to either postpone his marriage or to have the ceremony a day ahead. Miss Hendrie, under tho circumstances, acquiesced, aud the ceremony was performed on Thursday, September Oth. Now at the time of the wedding festivities the transcontinental express, which goes through to Vancouver, had left Toronto some hours, and was already miles on its journey, so Mr. Ledyard, with the assistance of tho Grand Trunk, proceeded to hustle to catch the flyer. A special train of an engine and a car left Hamilton at 3:58 p. m. The special made the journey of 255 miles to North Bay, including nine stops, in 5 hours, and 30 minutes; and, continuing, caught the flyer at Winnipeg yesterday where the special car was attached to the express. >._^'&&!_Lfc&fcjfcfr-_g-g-&g'g'g'&g|g:g<<-g-^fr<-Y0-0'0-0'0 ^.ST-Sp9C.CT.^.^.^\"S.\"5��� *T^�����_��� C-,*5-��?��� ��?��� ��\"��� 5f:C- rooms, excellent locution, near Stanley Btreet. $2100 Good 7-roomed house, large lot; only S'-W rash asked, and what you pay in rent will buy this house in 03 months. 8250 Lot 50 by 120, Mill stroet.

Silvc.rton Silvertbnian. A property, the richness of which is going to surprise not only the natives but also the outside mining men and capitalists, is the Smuggler mine at the head of Ten Mile creek. This property, which belongs to the Warner Miller Syndicate, has for some time been under development and has now reached a stage where its success as a mine is assured. It has beeu systematically and successfully opened up under the management of Dickenson & Folt, and under tlio foremauship of Patrick McGuire, formerly of the Noble Five mine. Over 1200 feet of underground development work has been done upon the Smuggler vein, consisting of tunnels, winzes and upraises. The property is a tunnel proposition and in all three tunnels have been driven tipou it. No. 1, tho upper tunnel, is now in a dis? tance of over 400 feet and the face is nearly under a big ore shute exposed on the surface. This tunnel has been driven directly upon the vein -which varies in width from liiue to twelve feet and carries, as far as explored, a continuous paystreak of ore safely running 800 ounces in silver to the ton and. varying in width from two to four inches. Tunnel No. 2 is also in over ���100 feet and is in oi'e its entire length as is also an upraise put up from this tunnel over 100 feet. The lower tunnel, No. 3, is in 120 feet, tho first part of which being a cross-cut, but when the vein was sti uck ore was encountered and the THE BANK OF BRITISH COLUMBIA NELSON Is now prepared to issue Drafts and Letters of Credit on Skaguay, U. S., Atlin, B. 0., and Dawson City, N. W. T. balance of the tunnel is in ore as is also a 30. foot winze sunk from it. The strike of the vein is northerly and southerly, the character of the ore taken from the paystreak*being a black iron and zinc mixed with galena that will run from 800 to \"lOOO^ounc^s^in^sirvei^to^th^tonT Good quarters have been erected at the property; and a force of about 20 miners are steadily employed. A. con tract for the packing of this ore to Enterprise Landing on Slocan lake has lately been let and it will now take its place as a shipper, of rich ore. Another property owned by the same company, adjoining the Smuggler is the Slocan Chief. Tho ore from this property, which consists of galena carrying large quantities of grey copper, is so rich that the muck taken out is washed and any ore that it might contain saved in that way. American and Eng-lish Boys. Fights are a recognized part of the school education among the boys. In America, when boys fight, it is because they are angry with each other ; in England, they fight because they are anxious to find out which is the better man physically. They may have no quarrel or illfeeling, but if their friends cannot agree as to their respective prowess the ultimate.result is pretty apt to be a \"mill.\" Life is more strenous. in America than in England, and this shown in the sports of the two nations. Take the game of football as an illustration. . In the American college game the tackling is lower, harder and surer than in the Eng-lish game. The backs hit the line as one man, like a battering ram. Every yard gained or lost is of great importance. Year by year the game grows more complicated, .more fierce, and more perfect Imperial Bank of Canada HEAD OFFICE. TORONTO. Capital Authorized Capital Paid up Rest $2,500,000 $2,458,603 $1,700,000 D.

It is getting to be like a fine piece of machinery in the harmony of the several parts. In England they play the game more loosely, miieh; as their fathers did before them. Cricket and baseball are the national games of the respective countries, and nowhere. do national characteriatico appear more in evidence. Cricket is an ail- day, leisurely, social event; baseball is an hour of wild excitement. The English game cultivates the amenities of life, and courtesy is a canon of the game. Baseball keeps the nerves too near the edge to leave much room for the interchange of fellowship and good-will toward the opposing team. President Frost, of Berea college, who has made a careful study of English public school system, says that the thing whicli struck him most sharply was the difference betweeu their method of play and ours. They take their sports as a matter of course. The American boy takes his as a sort of delirium. There the whole school of several hundred boys go out to the football field and play for an hour just as surely as they meet for dinner. Here a couple of score of trained athletes do the work, while the rest St. JOSEPH'S SCHOOL NELSON, B.C. : A boarding and day school conducted by the . Sisters of St. Joseph of Peace.

Labor Party to Nominate. Sandon���I^iystroakf=a====;=:g===^ candidate in the field to oppose those nominated by the machine politicians of Yale-Cariboo-Koot- enay. The date and place of meeting has not been decided, but the convention will probably be held in Nelson within the next 30 days. There are several men mentioned as possible nominees who would make good representatives, any one of whom could be elected. The determination of the labor element throughout the constituency to elect; a representative to the Ottawa house is the direct; outcome of tho mistrust with which both the old parties are held by tho great majority of tho people. That the Wost has been betrayed and traduced by the professional politicians is too painfully self-evident to even require assertion. That neither party will promise anything while in opposition that it will enact while in power is fche aggregate of knowledge gained through tho experience of many years. That both parties serve the same interests in opposition and.Jii.-po'wer is the conclusion to which an honest electorate has been'forced against its will. That the people have been gold- bricked aud thrown down at every turn is clearly demonstrated by an analysis of the actions of the past and the promises for the future on which these parties seek election. Edith Miller Concert. Of the Edith Miller Concert company, which appears in, Fraternity hall next Thursday evening, the Victoria Colonist; says: \"Miss Miller is an artist of rare ability, of greath warmth and beauty of tone. Miss Miller is by long odds the best contralto singer heard here for many years, and is certainly a most accomplished vocalist.
