Mme. Mantelli

Grand Opera Singer. She has a very good voice indeed and went very nicely, but, I think now as I have always thought, that there is no signer in the world that is worth the money that we pay her, to us, unless she can create sufficient interest to draw it in, and I don’t think that she is going to do it here. As a matter of fact, I think that so far as the New York House is concerned, that a woman at $75. Or $100. Per week would be just as valuable to us as she is. 12 minutes, in one. HRR.
