At pres- ent the Lake Shore drive terminates at Oak street, and the Commissioners of Lincoln Park desire to extend it to the Water-Works. ‘They had anthority under existing statutes to take private property by condemnation for that purpose. The extension of the drive- way, however, would embrace Pine street, Steel Companylying south of Eighty-seventh | from Oak street fo the Water Works, and the street, running to Calumet River and east to Lake Michigan, with all buildings and im- provements, t2 the North Chicago Rolling- Mill Company. : LOA: The loans havebeen quite heavy this week, but a large share is borrowed for purchase- money, which indicates a belief that Chicago property ean be easily carried and made to pay, notwithstanding there is an incum- brance on it drawing 6 to 7 per cent interest. Among the loans were $40,000 for five years, at 6 per cent, on property near the corner of | Legislature in 1877. Twenty-second and Grove streets; $15,000 for three yeurs, at 7 per cent, on lots in Blocks 72 and 100, Cornell’s Addition ; $60,000 for three years at 6 per cent on Jots in Biock 16, See. 33; $129,825 for one and two years (purchase money), on blocks in Chicago Land Company’s Subdivision of Elston’s Addition; $10,000 for five years até per cent Dill just pass@d authorizes the Commission- ers to take that pertion of Pine strect. If they take that alore, they can extend the boulevard the same width as Pine street now is. ty-six feet. If they should conclude, however, to extend it the fi width of 200 feet it'would be necessary to take private property on the east side of Pine street and raise money to pay for it by assessment. “Lhe Town of Lake View has petitioned for a sewer connection with the Fullerton avenue conduit. ‘Phere is authority for making such an arrangement under the law passed by the 1 it is & sanitary measure in which both towns are interested. Lake View has no established sewerage syst t has several underground sewers which emptied inte the lake. Ltis proposed to in- augurate. 2 system of sewerage by the town emptying in partinto the conduit, and in part into the North Branch or the lake.

The little difliculty with the Building Department Was foolishly mag- nified in the printed reports. It was solely due ‘to a, misunderstanding. The wall on one side is already of the required thickness. On-the other side. the proposed party-wall runs back but sixty feet, which will barely } cover the entrance-way to the theatre. This wall is twelye fiches thick. The proprietor of the theatre proposes to anchor to it a new wall of sixteen inches, and both together will be extended above the present roof, and form a ‘support for the theatre xoof. ‘The main, walls of the auditorium will be entirely: new and of the uniform thickness of tiventy-cight inches. The dif- ficulty related only to the entrance-way, and was exiused by the failure of the architect to” explain his plans fully to the Superintendent of Buildings. : e AS TO THE SIZE OF THE THEATRE, anotiier misapprehension has arisen. It will be by-far the lurgeSt theatre in Chicago, hav- ing a seating capacity of 2,600 or 2,700, McVicker’s Theatre seats only 1,800; Hooley’s and the Grand Opera-Llouse ‘about 1,200 and 1,500 respletively. The new theatre will be attractive and complete“in all its appgint- ments. ‘Lhe, public may be sure of that. Nothing will be lost by not having it on a corner lot. No ‘theatre in Chicago is on a corner lot. A theatre gains nothing by being in such a situation. It “does not need or want daylight area for matinées: and it can get ventilation in abundance from the top amd the back, Cornei-lots are not going beg- ging in this city just now. ‘They are tuo val- yable to buila theatres on, except by sacri- ficing conyenience to renting-capacity. ‘The number of theatres in New York and all the other American cities that stand on corner- lots ean readily be counted up on the fingers. ‘Those of the croxkers who live will see that, Llaverly’s new theatre will be in all respects what it was promised that it should be, % | THE DECAY OF BURLESQUE. .*Olivette” has occupied two of the thea- tres and crowded ont the regular attractions. It will be cheering intelligence to the public that burlesque has distinctly entered upon a period of decay. One might not fancy that, such was tl ‘tect from the appearance of MeVicke heatre during the .week. But the managers say that it is so, And they ought to Know, ‘There may, possibly bea dis- tinction to bedriwn between the old-style burlesque and the new. Of the former kind are such stupid inantties as ‘‘ Evangeline,” while to the latter jong the comic operas beginning with “ Pinafore” and ending with “Olivette.” ‘Phe old burlesque was mainly a travesty of words, and the new one of ideas. Iv will bea long time, we fancy, be- fore the latter goes out. The punning bur- Jesque is the one that is decaying. It never had the least pretensions to merit, but came in with the British blondes and other female extravesties, which could not be justified on any grounds of intelligent theatrical effort. THE MINSTRELS. =H The best minstrel company that Chicago dts oven fur unury a lung day played to phe- nomenally bad business at Hooley’s ‘Theatre last week. Birch and Backus have gone out of the jaw-bone department of trade, and. have left clog-ancing for the most part severely alone. ‘There never was any good. reason for including the latter in the num- ber of minstrel attractions, and the former was always a very questionable kind of melody. ‘The Francisco com- pany was. afflicted with its name. It was impossible to convince the public that its San Francisco experience was not of a re- centdate, Just now the amusement-seckers of Chicago are not looking for a wilder West than their own wild West. Chicago has been harassed with too much circus, There is a mysterious aflinity between a ininstrel- show and acireus. They draw: to some ex- tent on the same class of people; and the biggest circus gets the crowd. THE CINCUSES. =, ‘The Forepaugh circus has’ been doing an immense business during the week. . All the enterprising managers are reported as having started the season in remarkably ‘high feather. ‘Chere is more loose change in the country than for many years before, and a better - disposition to spend it. There are four. big circuses on the road, Sells, who came here first, had possibly the cheapest show of the lot, yet it was not bad in its way. It excelles particularly: in its array o@trained animals. Forepaugh has a good performance throughout, with nota bad feature init. The tumbling, riding, and jumping are the main attractions. Coup, who is to visit Chicago week after next, has the largest tent in the world; three rings and a collection of fine horses. He di the hippodrome business and _ra principal effects. Still later will num, Hutchinson & Co., with their consoli- dated show, which unquestionably does rep- resent an enormous investinent of capital, and what else beside time will prove. ‘There is room for all these circuses, and the proba- bility is that each will quit a large winner at the end of the season. But itis hard to sat what would become of them if Cyrus W. Field’s panic should come along according to his program, 5 . THE VOKES FAMILY. The nimble and hilirious Vokeses will be- gin an engagement at_McVicker’s Theatre to-morrow night. Miss Rosina will be missed from the company, she having married and settled down. Her place has been supplied by Miss Bettie Sanson. Miss Jessie and Miss Victoria, Mr. Fred and Mr. Fawdon will be seen-as of yore. The legs of “Mr. Fred, by ail accounts, have lost none of their eloquence or their sentiment. :‘They are the inost pathetic pair of underpinnings in the world, for they are oblised to do an amount, and variety of work which certainly no two similar adormnents ever did before. ‘fhe Vokeses were the first to introduce in Amer- ica a peculiar form of entertainment which may be described as, parlor burlesque. Following their remarkable successes in this country and their return to En- gland“ a host of imitations sprung up, and many of them picked up the purse of Fortunatus precisely where they had left it. ‘The Salsbury Troubadors succeeded so wells that they had the temerity'to go to Efgland and introduce John Bull to one of his own Inventions in a slightly revised version, They succeeded, tuo, in their venture. But itis doing simpie justice to the Vokeses to say, that in their own peculiar field they have never had their equal ‘They a shit 6 uators oral speaking stage. ‘They have no play, “‘Che Belles of the Kitchen” being only 2 title, but they have What is often far better,—an abundance of aniinal spirits and genuine *go.?

John Muir, Treasurer of the Academy of Music, is booked for a benefit Sunday atter- noon and evening, June 19.

Anna Boyle and William Stafford get a number of friendly notices for their perform- ance of Pauline and Claude at the Windsor Theatre, New York. Atthe Lyceum Theatre this week Mr. Jay Simms will appear in his “original sensation drama” entitled “Skip,” and have the sup- port of the stock company. ‘ The Union-Square Theatre of New York has secured the refusal of “A Fight for Life,” a new play founded on the novel by May Thomas, critic of the London News.

Ristori is said to have now quite mastered the English language. Tony Denier’s pantomime company pla; at the Academy of Music this week anc close the season there. Tony, by ‘the way, is reputed to be the owner of a fabulous quantity of Chicago real estate; also of a mule, which he bas called * Lotta.” Itis said that J. M. Hil, the well-known theatre manager, will have a new and beauti- ful theatre in New.York next season, e has been negotiating for a fine location on Broadway, and has probably arranged the matter by this time. ‘The reports that Mr.‘ Nat Goodwin was going to Europe this summer are incorrect. Ife has closed his traveling season, and is inn New York, where he will, probatgy remain until the arrival of his wife (Eliza Weath- ersby), who, with two of her sisters, will reaclr New York this week.

Edwin Forrest was standing near the door ofa theatre in which he was then playing, early in the evening, when aman upproache the gatekeeper, and said: “Do you admit the profession?” “Yes, when wo know them,” was the reply; “who are you?” “Dve got the trained hog here,” said the man. ‘Walk right iin,” interposed Forrest; “Tve got a whole company of ’em inside.” imultaneously with the announcement tion Mr. MacCorinack, the city editor of the Cincinnati Enquirer, has resigneu._to accept the position of manager of the Frederick Paulding dramatic company, the following appears in the columns of that journal: “ Frederick Paulding is the handsoimest as well as the most juvenile tragedian on the boards. In romantic melodramatic parts he excels, and to the delineation of these he will mainty confine his efforts next season. _ His time is rapidly filling up, and he will be one of the strongest cards that managers will have. “The Professor” was produced on Wednes- day night at the Madison Square Theatre, and imight as well say at once that it is, .Without exception, the thost pitiable dish- water that has beer Jadled on to our stage this season. Anybody but the Mallorys would have gone into sack-cloth and ashes at the mere reading of it, and never reached the after-infamy of its production. There are various shades and qualities of rubbish, some of which have character enough to excite corrective criticisin, but this particular kind seems to be less of an effort than an effuvium of somebody utterly devoid of even horse* sense.—Nym Crinkle. Lytton Sothern, the eldest son of the late Edward A, Sothern, publishes a denial of the’ statement in the comedian’s will that $8,000 had been given to him by his father. For years previous to the death of the latter the two had been estranged, ‘The cause of their quarrel, it is said, was the unauthorized ap- pearance of Lytton as Lord Dundreary in Australia, where he led the public to mistake nim for the original Sothern, and, being a poor actor, damaged his parent’s professional reputation while filling his own pockets. Sothern’s wil is to be contested by his widow and children, because he left most of his property to his sister. “The Professor,” the new play which suc- coeds “ Hazlo. Kirke” at the Madison Square Theatre, i: t praised by the New York critics. The Limes sa: character study, or as a study of any kind whatsoever, it is weak and of no value.” ‘The story of the play is given in a few words as follows: ‘The Professor, an exceedingly stupid mid- die-aged man,—described us a most excellent and simple-hearted gentleman in intellect; in scientific analysis, in power of abstract reasoning, a “veritable giant; in emo- tion, in affairs of the heart, in so- ciety observances, an __ inexperienced ehild,—wanders to a fashionable resort and becomes hopelesly involved in numer- ous matrimonial engagements. He is the centre and cause of all .the fun of the piece and some of the alleged pathos.” MUSIC. B THE FOUNDLINGS’ HOME CONCERT. The first rehearsal of the orchestra which is to play at the concert for the denefit of the Foundlings’ Ilome took place on Monday at Central Music-IHall, and was eminently sat- isfactory. Thé soloists were present and seemed delighted that they were to have such admirable support. ‘Theodore Thomas was present, and also seemed well pleased. The ladies are meeting with remarkable success in the sale “of tickets, every one seeming anxious to be present, ana an overflowing house can certainly be looked for on the oc- casion df the coucert.

THE CHICAGO MUSICAL COLLEGE. “As apart of the proceedings of the Com- mencement of the Chicago Musical, College, which occurred upon ‘Thursday evening last, the following brief address of the President, Dr. Ziegfeld, which ‘did. not appear in our 3G LADIES AND GHYTLEMEN: In connection with the graduating excrcises of this, the fourteenth annua! Commencement of the Chicago Musical College, and us preliminary to. the awarding of the diplomas, . gold" medals, and teachers’ cer titicates, it seems proper. that I should very brietly lay before you a-few. bints as to tho © growth of the college, its methods, and its re. sults. It was established fn 1867. Commencing in, 2 small way, it hassteadily grown and commend= ed itself to the public, until now it can boast that nearly 1,000 pupils have studied within its walls during the’ school’ year gybich closes to. - night, while in the years which bave pussed jt hus sent out into their spheres of musical intlus ence muny fine pliyers and singers... . [think you will ull admit that such resnits prove that the college has secured the services of the best teachers that could be fonad. The college occupies capacious rooms fn this mag- nificent building, besides a branch ut No. 44 Loomis street, “in the West Division, ang also additional localities in the South and North, Divisions, _ which ’ are no publicly udvertised, as thes are for, the perso convenience of pupils. Many pupils are ai taught at their own residences. The services of twenty. texchers are employed to cover this broud field. Pupils who have a thorough knowl. edge of our method of instruction, and who manifest the ability to impart teir knowledge to others,—in other words, who have becoma competent teachers,—receive, after a very str examination, the teacher's certificate. -The- = ular diploma and golden mneda! are awarded to pupils who have completed the whole course ' prescribed by the authorities of the Chi ‘ Musical College after & very searching exami. nation. and these pupils feave the cotleze as graduates of the institution.. The regular grad. uates are also entitled to, the teacher's certif. cate. Ihardly need say to you that there are many ~ teachers, both ludics and geutlemen, who ara} nottitted for their vocation, and that. pupils leave thoir hands full of bad habits'wkich have to be unlearned before they’ can make uny progress; but I have no hesitation in recommending to public, . patronage any graduate of this institution ‘who has the diploma and gold medal, or who can show its teacher's certiticate. You may rely pen it thar. those intrusted to thelr care will be in good hands. Jn this respect the college occupies a normal position which entitles it to compara without prejudice with any similar Institution even in the older Eastern elties. ‘T have thus briefly set before you-the prom. nent fucts in relation to our school. As the President of the colleze, and in behalf of its Faculty, L thank you, ladies and gentlemen, for the patronage you have bestowed upon and the contidence you have reposed im it. ana I assure you that in the future, us in the past, it shall be our joint endeavor to keep the institution up to its present high standard, and to improve every department whenever and wherever the uppor- tunity.occurs. It only remains for me to be stow the rewards of merit which have been’ earned by taithful application, the diploma and gold medal of the college, to twelve ladies, and the teucher’s certificate to ten others, to all of whom I desire to extend the best wishes of the college for their future success. ‘ LOCAL MISCELLANY. The Apailo Club will hold a special Min. nerchor. rehearsal on Monday evening, the 6th, to prepare for taking part in the San- gerfest. Ladies are not required to rehearsa again until Sept. L.

A testimonial benefit will be given Mr, Walter U. Hodge.at the Ada Street LE, Church next Thursday evening. Upon this occasion Mr. Hodge will have the services of no less. than twenty-four of our best solo singers, besides achorus and Lyon’s orches- tra for accompaniment, The program is an ‘unually pleasing one, as might be expected from such an array of singers.

The program includes selections from Mendels ° - sohn, Chopin, Liszt, Wagner, and composi- tions by Mr. Pratt. The annual concert given by the musical department of the Chicazo Female College took place last week. ‘The entertainment.” was highly creditable to those who took: part.
