In "The Memoirs of an American Prima Donna," by Clara Louise Kel logg, there is a good story of RonconL who played second- cobbler In "Crls plno e fat Comare." We are told that be was one of the finest Italian bari tones that ever lived and succeeded In. getting a degree of genuine high com edy out of the part that has never been, surpassed. "He used to tell of himself a story or the time when he was singing In tbe Royal opera at St Petersburg. The czar father of the one who was mar. dered said to him once: " 'Ronconl. I understand that you are so versatile that you can express trag edy with one side of your face when you are singing nnd comedy wltb the other. How do you do It T . " 'Tour majesty.' rejoined Roncenl. when I sing "Maria de Rohan" tomor row night 1 will do myself the honor of showing you.' "And accordingly the next evening be managed to turn one side of bis face, grim as the tragic mask, to tbe audience, while the other, which could be seen from only the imperial box, was excessively humorous and eheer ful. The czar was greatly amused and delighted wltb the exhibition."
