MUSIC "Taanhaeuser" at the Metropolitan Opera House. THE OPERA VICISSITUDES. After three performances Mr. Hammer stein announced that he had put his French production of "Tannh&user" on the shelf, being convinced that the opera was too German in spirit to prove acceptable in French. It was a manly confession, for. with all its shortcomings, the productions .at the Manhattan Opera House were in dicative of a sincere effort to achieve artis tic good. It would be interesting to inquire Into the question to what extent the use of French words militated against the success of the opera. Xo doubt many more of Mr. Kammerstcln's patrons understand German than understand French; no doubt, also, that those who understand German would prefer to hear operas which are German in subject and spirit sung in the German lan guage; but It is much to be feared that the majority of opcragoers In New York ar» f - blithely Indifferent to the language used by the stage people as were the English people of Afldison's day (when ojxra was half English and half Italian), or the Ham burg public of Handel's early period, when German alternated with Italian In the same scene. Our population is composed ot many elements, and the enjoyment of each element is unquestionably greater at a performance given in the language na tive to it than in any other tongue. But on the whole it has been made plain a thousand times that the general attitude is one of indifference to anything except th« personality of the people on the stage. the singing, the acting and the pictures. In fact. It is not unlike that of Boileau when he went to the Academic in Paris to hear "Atys" and requested the box keeper to put him in a place where he could hear Lully's music, which he loved, but .not Quinault's words, which he de- t Fplsed. Mme. de Stael condemned the German composers of her day because they followed the sense of the text too closely, whereas the Italians made the melody *nd the words conform to each other only in a. general way. x Long after Mme. de Stael a writer who was English and author of a charming and in structive book on the history of the opera, George Hogarth, put it down as his con viction that the words of un operatic air were of email importance to the compre hension of the "business of a piece. They merely express, he said, a sentiment, a reflection, a feeling. It is quite enough if their general Import is known, and this may most frequently be gathered from the situation, aided by the character and expression of the music. However. Mr. Hogarth -wrote before Wagner had accomplished his reform, and before Bucb things as a people's char acteristic Ideals and a people's char acteristic manner of expression had , re ceived wide recognition. The French were the first people to develop a style of oper atic music based upon the genius of tin language, though two of the composers who took part in the development were foreign ersLully. an Italian, and Gluck. a Gor man. But the French have been quite as careless about preserving the spirit of foreign works in the translations which they have, made for their own delectation as any other people. In this respect, indeed, all the nation* meet on common ground. A case in point comes to mind. The lovers of Wagner's dramas are not likely soon to forget what Jean de Reszke did to restore them in their native tongue to the repertory of the Metropolitan Opera "House. While the public was crowding the house to enjoy his impersonation of Tris tan. a - friend remarked to him that he would pay a handsome sum for the privi lege of witnessing the behavior of an im pressionable Paris audience at a perform ance at the Grand Opera with the admired arttet in the principal role. "I have al ready been incited by tins director to Bins it.** said M. de R*szk<-, in reply, "and have raid that I would provided a new transla tion' were made under my own supervision.** "But did not Catulle Mendes make- a translation? Surely he knew both French and German thoroughly." "lit- did, but"'— to his va'.et— "bring me •Tristan and Isolde' from the piano." Then turning to his friend lie sang the phrase •Tristan's Ehre. hoehste Treu'." and added, "What do you think of "La gloire de Tris tan: 1 for 'Tristans Ehre'? No, I can't sing each stuff." In this instance both body and spirit were outraged in the translation. There was nothing quite so flagrant in the French ver- Fion used at the Manhattan Opera House, but Mr. Hammerstein was right when he missed the Teutonism in the performances and recognized how essential it is to the words, the action and the music of the splen did tragedy. Wagner conceived his hero as a German '•from top to toe," and every other character in it is just as Teutonic as the minstrel knight himself. New Yorkers have had occasion to learn that. Between the opening of the Metropolitan Opera House, In ISS3, and the end of the season 1896-*97 there were forty-five sub scription performances of "Tannhauser." and of these two were in Italian and thre* In French. Interesting features marked tbeee performances. Thus, at the first Ital ian representation, on January 29, 1894. Mbhl Melba sang the music of Elisabeth delightfully, and Plancon was more than usually unctuous and pontifical as the Land grave. The music of the Bacchanale was used, but the choreographic representation was simply ludicrous. The flrst French performance (Mr. Hammerstein was in error In proclaiming his the first, as were also the newspaper reviewers, including him of The Tribune) was graced by the participation of Emma Eames, M. Plancon and M, Lassalle, and took place on No vember 30. 1396. The chorus acclaimed the Landgrave of Thuringia in '"soft bastard Latin," but Plancon replied in French, as at a later day he did in what passed for German. But in all these performances the listeners felt that the opera had been phlebotomized, and it did not take on a. native hue and resolution till It came back with the German forces, first under Walter Dsmrosch and then in the single consul chip of Gran. TL* performance of the opera at the Met ropolitan last night was the second of the present season. The chief interest of the evening lay in the first appearance in New York of a new Elisabeth in the person of Miss Jan» Osborn-Hannah. a young Ameri can singer who has recently been appear-> ins in Europe. Miss Osborn-Hannah proved to be a young woman of prepossessing per sonality, and the possessor of a fresh, clear voice. Her tlnsrinc was unfortunately marred by a marked vibrato, hut this was due. no doubt, largely to nervousness. Carl Jons sang Tannhauser effectively and Clar ence Whltehill made of Wolfram a striking figure, besides singing the music well. Mme. Olive Fremstad was. as always, superb In the role of Venus. The Land grave was Allen Hinckley. Mr. Hertz con ducted with authority and understandi/ig. But, alas! better things "might have br»ri made of tho Bacchanal? in the first act. There wa* in it little of poetry or Illusion. The audience was of good size. The cast of last night's performance was as follows: IS2E&2TT. Allen Hj r K,; y £&*?

Oscar Hammerstein said last night that he intended to continue giving opera at- the Manhattan Opera House as he had done in the past. He said he had lost little more financially than he did last year, and that February would see revivals of "Salome," "Pelleas et Mellsande" and "Louise" and the first American performance of "Zaia." "I never took any stock in negotiations with the Metropolitan," said the impres ario, "and J told my son so. When Mr. Shubert comes to me with a direct propo sition from the Metropolitan directors I may consider it, hut not before I have abundant means, and I think you will find me giving opera for the next fifteen years. I am as full of fight as ever." METROPOLITAN'S OPERAS. • l.a Bohemo" will be Monday night's opera at the Metropolitan.

MARK TWAIN LEAVES HOME. Returns to Bermuda, Where 111 Health Troubles Him Least. Samuel 1,. Clemens, the author, sailed for Bermuda yesterday on the steamship Bermudian. He returned ,to this city shortly before Christmas to spend the holidays with his daughter Miss Jeanne Clemens, who died suddenly at the Clf-mens home in Redding a few days after her father came from the islands. Before sailing yesterday Mr. Clemens said he had planned to po to Bermuda with his daughter in April, but that her death had forestalled him. "I still have that pain in my lert breast." he said yesterday, "and I am poing back to Bermuda to see if I cannot get rid of It. I am not troubled with the pain when on the island, but as soon as I return to this city it attacks me again. I Mas rot as 111 as the reporters perhaps imapined when I came back to New York a few weeks ago." Mr. Clemens said he would remain In Bermuda for the. winter. Only a valet ac companied him. ASSISTANT FOR BISHOP GREER. Bishop Mann, of North Dakota, Coming to New York. The Right Rev. Cameron Mann, bishop of North Dakota, will soon remove to this city, where he will become assistant to Bishop David H. Greer, in the diocese of New York. Bishop Greer suggested to the Episcopal diocesan convention last Novemtxr that his duties were too numerous to permit of proper supervision of Urn large diocese, and he then submitted three plans for improve ment. One was to petition the general convention, next year, for a suffragan bishop, and an assistant until the suffragan could be obtained. This suggestion was unanimously adopted, after the suggestion of a bishop's coadjutor was discussed and rejected on Urn ground that the largest diocese in the country offered serious ob stacles to a successful coadjutorship. Bishop Mann was born in New York City in ISSI. Hf was graduated from Hobart College in 187n, £md later from the General Theological Seminary. From 1882 to 1901 he was- rector of Grac-e Church, at Kansas City, and was consecrated bishop of North Dakota on December 4, 1301. HOUSEKEEPER'S BIG REWARD. Settlement of S. M.

WIFE MURSIJNG COOK Relative Says Explorer )VM Soon Defend Himself. Mrs. Josephine Dudley, of Xo. 340 East 18th street, sleter of the -wife of Dr. Fred erick A. Cook, the discredited explorer, ad mitted yesterday that she knew Cook's whereabouts and said that he had been ill mentally and physically*' Other members of the family said that the newspapers had been kept from him and that he did not know the UniveiFity of OopenhaKen hud thrown out his claims to the discovery of the North Pole. It was stated that he was in complete ignorance of the shift of public opinion against him. Mrs. Dudley refused to say whether Dr. Cook was in America or Europe, but she loi^ the impression that he was still in America. She said she was in charge of the two Cook girls and had placed them In the Hamilton Institute for Girls, at No. 45 West 81st street. "Mrs. Cook Is with her husband," she said, referring to a report of trouble be tween the Cooks. "She is nursing him night and day. It isn't likely Tf she is doing that for htm that she intends to start an action for divorce, is it? His condition is mending, and we expect he -will be able to come from where he Is staying in a few days and face his accusers. I do not know the form of his ailment, but I do know that he was very 111. We thought at first that he might not survive. He could not concentrate his mind or talk for even a few minutes on any subject. It seems like a complete nervous collapse, and his con stitution -was not strong enough to with stand it. "I am communicating with my sister every day. She still loves her 'husband, and her faith in his statement that he Is the discoverer of the po!e is as strong as ever." Referring to loans said to have been made to Dr. Cook by his wife, Mrs. Dudley said: "She hw»t him money to pay his immedi ate expenses, and never thought of getting it back. She would be benefited with Dr. Cook If his claims were established. It was a family matter, anyway. I am sure I would give anything I have to my husband and not expect to have It returned." ANOTHER BLOW TO DR. COOK. Man Who "Mixed It" with the Bear Calls Rescue "Fake." Seattle, Jan. 5. — A. D. Burton, an Alaskan prospector who has arrived from the north, declared to-day that the story told by Frederick A. Cook about rescuing Burton from a bear was untrue. "The year of Dr. Cook's last trip to Alaska I saw Edward Baxrill, an old friend, at Seward," said Burton. "Later I had an experience with a boar that eaioe. near ending my life and I was chewed up pretty severely. I was greatly surprised, when the Cook magazine article was pub lished after he returned to this country, to see In it my picture and the story of my experience with the bear. Cook told how his party had rescued me from the jaws of death. As a matter of fact. Cook was not within one hundred and fifty miles of me at the time the bear and I mixed. In the magaxine also was a picture of my struggle with the bear, which, of course f was a fake." AMBASSADOR WILSON HERE. Henry Lane Wilson, recently appointed Ambassador to Mexico, arrived here yester day from Antwerp on the steamship Kroonland.

Brussels, Jan. s.— Minister of State Beer naert. in an Interview to-day, stated that while the failure of the late King Leopold to Issue a royal decree sanctioning the marriage of Prince.

MILLS Press of San Francisco a Unit in Its Eulogy. rrtv Telegraph to Thf Tribune.] San Francisco, Jan. 5. — The press of San Francisco devotes much space to the cieath of D. O. Mills, every newspaper printing many tributes to his loyalty and Integrity from his old associates in pio neer days. "The Chronicle" says in the course of a long editorial: Mr Mills way honored by those who knew him best, and trusted even by those who knew him least. The cornerstone of his nature was inU'srrity In tils home, buaim M office and in public he was the same honest, wise, just and sagacious man and counsellor — the best type his class presented. It will be remembered that in getting riches he never wronged his fellow man. and no one points a scorn ful finger at hfs ways of accumulation. The practical nature of the man showed in his philanthropy. He believed in helping those who could help theniselvc-B. Mr. Mills was a man of whom we shall not often see the like. He set a fine ex ample in business and society and in his work for others. "The Evening Bulletin" heads its edi torial: "D. O. Mills, a man of millions and morals, passes from life." H continues: With the death of D. O. Mills, a notable and honored figure paasfefl from the n>ld of finance. The Mills fortune, unlike that of many ff the millionaires of to-day, was not the fruit of law breaking or restric tive combination. The same master hand built railroads and operated mines. Bet ter than that, it aided in the spread of knowledge, for it was D. O. Mills who provided the funds that gave to the world the Mergenthaler typesetting machine, an invention that revolutionized the printing business. Besides being a great financier and builder. D. O. Mills was a great philan thropist. His philanthropy took a prac tical turn and created such thing? an the Mills hotels for worklngmen in New York. Pure milk was one of his hobbies, and for months after the fire and earthquake his Millbrae dairy served free milk to poor families in San Francisco. He had always a care for the needs of the suffering, and many a community has profited by his benefactions, a wonderful man was D. O. Mills. Tf all captains of industry were like him the nation would not be inflicted with the curse of "special interests." A SSOCIA TES TA LX. Senators Speak in High Praise of Mr. Mills's Career. Washington, Jan. s.— "The Post" prints this morning several tributes to D. O. Mills. "General regret for his death," says "The Post." "waa expressed on every hand in Washington. Associates in various under takings of a financial, social and philan thropic nature, including a score or more of Senators and other prominent men of "Washington, spoke In the highest terms of the great work performed by the financier. "Senator Stephen B. Blklns, of West Vir ginia, who aided Mr. Mills in various vent ures, asserted that a more energetic, straightforward and honest man than was Mr. Mills does not live. " 'Known in the United States, as well as abroad.' Senator Elkins said, 'the work of Mr. Mills will be felt for years to come. " 'Outside of his business sagacity, the work he has done in the interest of the poorer classes, especially in New York, has been of the greatest benefit to all classes. Conceiving the idea that great good can be done the poorer classes by furnishing large hotels, at which clean beds and wholesome food can be obtained at nominal prices, Mr. Mills invested thousands of dollars in three such institutions. Barely 2 per cent was realized on the investment, from a financial point of view, yet the financier, I believe, obtained more satisfaction and pleasure from the knowledge that he had assisted the needy than from any material profit." "Senator Francis G. Newlands, of Ne vada, one of Mr. Mills's associates, had this to say about him: "Mr. Mills was one of the argonauts of California, reaching there during the perioa of the gold excitement. He established himself at Sacramento in business, and soon became a leading banker there. Later he became the president of the Bank of California, at San Francisco, which was organized by W. C. Ralston, and which during his administration became the lead ing bank of the Pacific Coast. He was its president, though living in the East, at the time of its failure, a colossal catastrophe which seemed likely to paralyze the enter prises of the entire coast: but the reorgani zation brilliantly accomplished by William Sharon put the bank upon its feet, and it is now the largest bank on the Pacific Coast. "Mr. Mills became early interested with Ralston and Sharon in the Comstock mines, and there realized the bulk of his fortune wuh which he afterward com menced his operations In tlie East. He was a man of remarkable business judgment, and was able instinctively to select the hest out of a number of enterprises presented to him. No man In the country had a higher reputation, either in California or in the East, for integrity in all his actions. He had little to do with modern methods in making large fortunes, and yet his Invest ments were in almost every form of interest that attached to civilization, and were scat tered all over the country and the world. "He moved very quietly and unobtrusively and relied absolutely upon himself, rarely upon the co-operation of others. The pre vailing characteristics of Mr. Mills were the excellence of bis judgment and his sense of fairness and justice. He had quite a phiianthiopic side, was much Interested in the construction of hotels adapted to the requirements of people of very restricted means and other forms of investment which really substituted help that could be aocerted with self-respect in the place of charity. "Senator Nixon, of Nevada, associated with Mr. Mills in later life, spoke feeling ly of their relations, both social and finan cial. Mr. Mills, he r.aid, was not of a speculative nature, but possessed the keen est business foresight. He gave as an In stance the fact that, while he»hesitated In taking an active part in the transconti nental railroad then under construction, backed by Huntington and other magnates, he lent to these financiers large sump of money with which the work was completed. " Mr. Millss work of making the barren West the richest section of the country nvver enn te definitely gauged,' Mr. Nixon said. 'He was one of the pioneers, and he gave the best of his younger years to the making of the West. In return, of course, he received fabulous wealth, but the amass ing of a big fortune was not his sole ob ject. The use of the money gathered to be t'.sed in the aid -e-f others less fortunate than he was his sole aim in life. " 'He made for himself a name never to be forgotten, even by thousands who never were permitted to see him. In the West, as well as the East, he has erected monu ments, not for self-glorification, which will BMtri the needy for years to come.' " In California, whip!* Mr. Mills made his fortune, and where the scene of his early endeavors was laid, the name of Mills is synonymous with honesty.' Is the, tribute I'ui-J by Senator Perkins, of California. 'Mr. Mills repeatedly said that he could die satisfied when the end eventually would come, having the knowledge that he had tried to live for others and to make others lumpy.' Senator Perkins continued. " He was one of the multi-millionaires of the (-'untry who did not incur the enmity of the other classes with which he dealt. Following the army of fortune Hunters to the California gold fields In the days of '49. he cast his lot with the rest o£ them. Shrewd business insight and a prophetic speculative nature, rather than luck, caused him to win out. " 'Mr. Mills was a practical philanthropist He did a noble work in California, and thirty years ago he shifted the greater part of his work to the East and to N.-w York where his philanthropic work waa con tinued <«n a larger scale. ' 'Mr. Mills made frlend.s i n the West who always will rtmnbw him. When General Grant made his trip around the world he was entertaine.l „ his arrival in Callfor nia by Mr. Mills." "» A TRIBUTE TO D. O. MILLS. Th* following resolution on the death of Darius Ogilcn Mills was adopted at a meet ing of the trustees of the California So- Bitty of New York, held yesterday after noon: Assembled in special meeting for this purpose convened, we, the board of trus tees of the California Society of New York wish to record our sincere and heart felt sorrow and regret on the occasion of the death of our fellow member. Darius Ogden Mills, than whom in life no more beautiful example of the kindly spirit and generous heart was with u». He it therefore I— olTX. That the secre tary of the California Society of Sew York, by our order, forward a copy or" tbla communication to the bereaved family of the deceased, and that the resolution !■*» further spread upon the minutes of the society. TO BRING BODY HERE. Children of D. 0. Mills Will Accompany It to This City. San Francisco, Jan. s.— The body of Darius O. Mills, who died suddenly at hi^ winter home at Millbrae Mon.Uy nltrht, will be taken to X*» V-.rk Friday night in a special train. Mrs. Whltelaw Reid, his daughter, and Ogrtm Mills, his son, will accompany the body. MR. REID SAILS FOR HOME. lmndon, J;.n :,. Whiteluw Reid, An: . can Ambassador in T.omlon. ?atled to-da on the steamer St. Louis from Southamp ton for New York to attend the funeral of Mrs. Reid's father, D. O. M: IK- TRIBUTES TO MR. MILLS. Press Comments on His Great Work for His Fellow Men. "AS FINE A TYPE AS EVER LIVED." From The Springfield Republican. His l.l^a was to help men needing help, in a manner never to injure thfir seit-respect, and so he put these model hotels of ttietr kind on a self-supporting basis. He waa a man of the strictest Integrity and demo cratic in his manners— as fine a type as ever lived of the business man. IMPROVED THE I>OT OF THE NEEDY. From The Buffalo Commercial. One of the great financiers of New York died last night. Darius O. Mills had done a great amount of good with his money, and the city owes much to him for works o£ charity and the improvement of the lot of the needy and the "submerged tenth." A FRIEND OF HUMANITY. From The Troy Press. Darius O. Mills had a good heart, as well as a great fortune, and his practical phi lanthropies bfaMd myriads. His cheap hotels in New York have provided decent food and lodging for thousands and thou sands who would have suffered otherwise for the want of either. Multimillionaires of the Mills type are friends or" humanity. un<l the world is richer rather than poorer on account of their accumulations. ONE CLAIM TO DISTINCTION. From The New York Globe. His best claim to I'ame and distinction Is that he was among the first to perceive and to recognize in this or any other coun try that the philanthropic impulse, as to many ameliorative agencies, should be guided and directed by business principles. He laid hold of the tiasic klea that excel lent things could be made to pay their o*n way— that a 4 per cent return on capital was compatible with doing a vast amount of good. He was a supporter in act of the thesis that it is better, as to many things. to enable purchase at a reswonable price than to give and thus to pauperize and to weaken. "PRE-EMINENT." From The Washington Post. The life of this pioneer and prime factor in the development of the Pacific Coast offers a field of study every young man should avail himself of. For vigor and stunliness. those rugged virtues that cle«ve the wav to achievement, the dead financier and philanthropist— may he rest well amons the master minds in Sleepy Hollow Ceme tery!—stands pre-eminent. In public estima tion, among the nation builders of his time. PRACTICAL CHARITY. From The Philadelphia Press. The late D. O. Mills was known and re spected In California as financier, j§a nlc er and public spirlte;! citizen many years be fore he won a like reputation In New York City. His greatest and permanent fame will rest, doubtless, on his unique and en lightened charity in establishing in New York City three large hotels where re spectable men of limited means can obtain decent meals and lodging at very moderate prices. These hotels have proved self-sus taining. Economy of administration and the elimination of the need of profit for distribution enable these hotels to give a good service at a very low price. The Idea Is one that will bear still further develop ment, but it is a contribution to sociologi cal science and Dract'cal charity most cred itable to the head and heirt of the multi millionaire who conceived it. "AN EXEMPLARY CITIZEN." From The Boston Journal. In Darius Ogden Mills, dead in California at the ripe old age of eighty-four, . the United States had an exemplary citizen and benefactor. By nature adventurous and chivalrous, he fairly bounded to success once he was thrown upon his own re sources. Inheriting a good character and a good constitution, he started out at the age of sixteen, and before he was twice that, age had made himself rich and respected. Ijater on he turned his wealth and en thusiasm to the fields of art. science and philanthropy, taking an active interest In projects dedicated to the improvement and advancement of his fellow men. Thrice successful and praiseworthy ts the self made multimillionaire who devotes the most influential years of his life to the ser vice of humanity. Men like Darius Oeden Mills richly deserve a place In our hall of fame. "LASTING BENEFITS." From The Troy Times. Darius Ogden Mills, whose death Is re ported from California, was a typical Amer ican in ••the best sense. A veritable arero naut and an original "Forty-niner," he went to the Pacific Coast at the beginning of the pold excitement. But he took with him qualities already developed in a worthy career in the East, where his industry and talents had won him recognition. He be came, a merchant and later a banker .'n California, and gained great wealth through honorable business method?. T;< = was i life of spotless integrity, and through all his great business activity there ran the spirit «♦< devotion to the best Interest* of his fellow men. His services to philan thropy, art, education and other hi«rh causes we/re many and conspicuous. His influence was wholesome, and his work such as to leave lasting benefits. Mr. Mills was a man of culture and refinement, and his family life was ideal. WELL, DIRECTED BENEFACTIONS. From The New York Times. Like John S. Kennedy and Charles Stew art smith. D. O. Mills belonged to the older generation of men of large affairs and great fortunes in this city. For it was with this city, even more than with San Francisco, that during the last third of his life the name and the activities of Mr Mills were associated. Mr. Mills's activities in New York took many forms. His bene factions were numerous and well directed. The Mills hotels, which furnish food and lodging at little more than tenement house cost, yet in conditions of cleanliness and comfort that make them acceptable homes, have been a conspicuous example of the wise use the banker made of his fortune. His active Interest In the Zoological Oar den, the Metropolitan Museum of Art and the American Museum of Natural History testified -to his desire to aid in building up Institutions worthy of the great city" and Its civilization. Mr. \fills was a successful man of the old-fashioned type. By old fashioned methods, and by his career, his qualities, his benefactions and his high character, he won and preserved the re spect, the esteem and the cratltudo of the communities in which his life was spent.
