More Pablic Parks Wanted — Pablic Reservations Occupied by Rail- roads and for Other Purposes. There was an interesting meeting of the Northeast Washington Citizens’ Associa- tion held last evening, at which the ques- tions of street extension and location of public patks were discussed. Ever since the organization of the association the question of public parks has been under discussion. ‘The parks in the section mentioned are few and far between. It was stated that the} enly park of any consequerfte in the north- east section is Stanton square, and that is very near the line of East Capitol street. Reservation 201, which is intended for use as a park, is ocetpied by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company. When Secretary Hinternesch had finished | reading the minutes of the last meeting, and President Frizzell called for committee re- ports, he stated that the railroad committee had no report to make. He desired to say, | however, that since the last meeting the question of the railroad company using lights on the rear of backing train¢ had, been discussed by both‘the Commissioners | and the railroad company, and the company | had virtually agreed to use lights on the end of cars when backing trains. Lights on Backing Cars. . C. Miller, “I have noticed recently that the lights have been used. Several times I have been delayed fifteen or twenty minutes and on the back- ing trains I always noticed lights.” Chairman Johnston of the committee on streets, avenues and alleys had no writ report to make, but he said he had ad- dressed a communication to Senator Gor- man asking for a hearing before the sub- ommittee. In response thereto he received | @ letter from the Senator asking him for | written information concerning the needs of Northeast Washington, and he wrote a iengthy letter in reply to this request. Im4t he set forth the need of improvements, reg- | the usual $150,000 appropriation for the re- | surfacing and repairing of concrete pave-| its share of it. Need of a Fire Engine. Chairman Holstein of the committee on water, lights and sewers preseated the fol- lowing report: “Your committee on water, light and sew- ers, to whom was assigned the duty of co- ing with the fire department of the District in the endeavor to secure an ap- propriation for a fire engine, ete., for the better protection of the nor rm por- tion of the city, report that on the 7th instant, they waited on the committee for the District of Columt and were careful consideration. | sent, and your had al- | amitice the necessity presented the matter, it would have informed that the ready urged on the com for the desired engin: © Question of Public Parks. When the question of a report on public parks was called to the attention of the association, President Frizzell said he knew the committee 4# report to ms but with the indulgence of the associati he desired to call the attention to a letter received from Capt. Powell, Engineer Com- missioner, in 1884, to show that he was greatly interested in tNe question of parks, ired to read a letter received t De f the Langdon Citi- s follows: st years the north the District appears to have nate, having been neglected in the matter of public improvements.

You fore respectfully invited . in an effort to secure | ation of two or more public parks in this section of the District.” Mr. Dewey's Remarks. Mr. Dewey was present in the meeting, and he accepted an invitation to make a few remarks in behalf of the public parks. He commenced by referring to the proposed boulevard and chain of parks from the northeast section to Soldiers’ Home. Under this proposed arrangement there would be | etly three grade crossings, and this act alone should kill the proposed route and change it to where the railroad would be bridge he said; “we XIV parks, s’ signs. The parks | hildren with no such “We want wild wood parks, h Louis already have enow with ‘keep off the gru are wanted for the signs.” The speaker then told of the sand banks in the parks in the center of Paris, where children enjoy themselves, and of the ten- acre lots where the boys play base ball and other game: “There are enough starch-collar parks to e of our lives,” he said, “and now we want breathing spots for the benefit of the children. Let the govern- ment buy the land, and we will ask for no appropriation. Give us the woods, as nature | has grown them, cut through some walks and all we'll want thea will be a policeman or two to look after the place. The park will take care of itself.” Dr. Loomix Speaks. Dr. Loomis of the Winthrop Heights Association also spoke. He spoke of the necessity of parks in the northeast. Now that the streets are to be extended he thought it the proper time to look after the breathing places. “This city,” he said, ‘is destined to be the greatest residence city in the world, Pari$ not excepted. Houses will be built beyond Florida avenue, and now is the time to get the parks, when the ground can be bought by the acre.” Dz. Loomis said that other cities had fine parks, such as are now wanted here, and mentioned Fairmount Park, Philadelphia; Watkins Glen, N. Y.; Prospect Park, Brooklyn, and the park ‘at Detroit, Mich. He said he favored Commissioner Powell's and he thought it the duty of the associa- tions to back him up. Dr. Loomis also spoke of the assess- ment of property in the vicinity of Win- throp Heights. He had had occasion to make an argument before the board of re- view, and his assessment, he said, was in- creased 6,000 per cent. That was because the ground had been subdivided, because in the same neighborhood property not sub- divided 1s taxed as farm land. On motion of Mz. W. C. Miller a com- mittee of five was appointed to confer with other associations upon the matter of parks. Reservation 201 and the B. and 0. Chairman Hinternesch of the committee on parks and public spaces made his re- port concerning the occupancy by the Bal- timore and Ohio railroad of reservation 203. This is the triangtilar space east of H street northeast, between the tracks of the Metropolitan branch on Ist street and the Washington branch on Delaware avenue. id he wrote to Col. John M. Wilson me information as to the right of the company to use this reservation, acks and derricks, and received the = response: ng to your letter of the 12th in- have the honor to say that the nd Ohio railroad has been oc- a number of yea U. S. reser- 1, between Delaware avenue nd G and H streets north- without any authority whatever, so ar as I can find out. “During my previous tour of duty in this city, 1885 to 1889, 1 endeavored in vain to get possession of the reservation, and brought the matter to the attention of Con- gress in various 1 reports, as will be ‘9 of my annual report 4334 of my report for es of which I herewith stant eeupancy of the reservation by the » and Ohio has been reported an- ually to Congress by this office.” Chairman Hinternesch then read the re- ports of Col. Wilson relating to the matter mentioned, and also showed what public reservations were occupied by other sr- sons. He read from the report: Other Reservations Occupied. “The following reservations, claimed as property of the United States, are now occupied, it is believed, in violation of law: “Reservations Nos. 101, 118 and 175 by the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad Com- pany. “Reservation No. 201 by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company. ‘Reservation No. 116, by the Central Union Mission, as a place of worship. “Reservation No. 163, by the Bethany Chapel of the New York Avenue Presby- terian congregation. “Reservation No. 305, by a party who built a frame house thereon in 1888; this case is now in the hands of the United States district attorney for the District of Columbia. “Reservation No. 323 is ocupied as a lum- ber yard by a party who claims to rent from a gentleman in Port Deposit, Md. The report was received and referred to the proper committee. Grade Crossings Again. Following this the matter of the street railroad crossings of the Baltimore and Ohio tracks was renewed, and President Frizzell read a letter received from a citi- zen who complained that the rough cross- ings seriously disturbs and affects his wife when she rides in the cars. Complaint was also made that cars at 9th and 14th streets often drive off upon the approach of a Columbia car instead of wait- | | ing to get the transfer passengers. Mr. Tucker called attention to the ‘resolution offered at a former meet- ing of the association looking toward the occupancy of the street by proposed street railroads, and Dr. Loomis and Mr. Dewey addressed the association concerning the charter of the Columbia suburban road and the proposed extension of the Columbia | line. Mr. Dewey said that the financial crisis was the only reason why the Columbia sub- urban road was not built, and he wanted the association to favor an extension of the charter. The Columbia road, he said, has asked for an extension of its road out the Bladensburg pike, and characterized its ac- tion as a case of “dog in the manger.” He said that the proposed extension of the Co- lumbia road would not benefit the resideats of Langdon, but would go through a section Where no request had even been made for a Toad. Dr. Loomis followed in a few remarks ex- planatory of the proposed suburban road, nd said it was the intention of this com: pany to land their passengers at the Center market. Ve want the best road we can get,” he sald, “and so far as the city route is’ con- cerned we care nothing.” Several members of the association par- ticipated in a lengthy discussion concern ing the railroad question, and Mr. Carver offered a resolution providing that the as- sociation favor the extension of the Colum- bia road out the Bladensburg road to the District line, with one branch to Langdon Heights and another out 12th street norch- east. ‘The resolution was referred to the com- | mittee on public conveyance, and the meet- ing adjourned. —_- AMUSEMENTS, <AAibangh’s.—-The man who is seeking a new sensation—he with the jaded intellectu- al appetite that craves some new and par- Ucularly pungent condiment—found ample pleasure in the performance of Mounet- Sully and Madame Segond-Weber at Al- baugh’s Grand Opera House last night. It Was an occasion which added to the reputa- tion which that theater has been earning for the presentation of artistic celebrities to the Washington public. It is not so long since the boars there were trodden by Henry Irving; but excepting as to the eminence of the two men, there is nothing that suggests a comparison of them. Irving is deeply English, and Mounet-Sully is whol- ly French. There was a strong int to the manner in which this famous F man would interpret one of the ideai acters of the English-speaking stage. Th Hamlet that is generally seen is the young man with supprersed grief, which breaks only when the situation excites his ions to volcanic fierceness. Moune carries no concealed volcano. He is ate of unremitting emotional activity. The American public ts used to Hamlet as he would have been had he been an Eng- lishman. Mounet-Sully makes him thor- hiy a Frenchman—one who depends for ression of his feelings on physical out activity, on the extremes of explosive volu- bility, or funereal deliberation of utter- ance; on surprises in gesture, sometimes even on articulate sounds more than he does on the inflections of his reading. This 1s entirely natural. The play as it is given does not purport to be a simple translation of Shakespeare's work, it is an adaptation by men of genius in France, and the result is a purely Gallic tragedy, rhyming, couplets and ail, Har is an ideal of youthful sensi- pility. sh the sensitive nature with- ws self and broods in silence over its melancholy; in French it unhesitatingly cries when it is hurt, and without reserve acquaints the public with its sufferings. When Mounet-Sully stepped upon the stage it vy ident that his conception of the character was one of almost violent em- phasis. His inky cloak seemed a deeper black than the dyestuffs are ordinarily able of producin, i the big plume that ble and somber over his hat sug- He ts man of fine figure, active in movement, athletic and graceful in his proportions, and with a voice that has the rich pro- fundity of the lower register of an organ. This Hamlet is young; but stlil old enough to have the small beard which Mounet-Sully wears. He neglected scarcely anything that could suggest itself in the way of what thi stage technically designates as “business.” He startled those who had worshiped a conventional intecpretation many times dur- ing the evening—not least when in the soliloquy he rose to a passionate outburst of horror at the thoughts which unfolded themselves to his mind. And yet, with all his surprises, the propriety:of what he does cannot, from Mounet-Sully’s point of view, be questioned. The nature of Hamlet, as he sees the character, is as cleanly cut as 1s a cameo. He has fixed his ideas firmly and has proceeded to interpret them with all the intensity of which his ardent personality is capable. There is little of the metaphysical mist which some of the most delightful of Anglo-Saxon Hamlets have allowed to en- rest gested a whole caravan of hearse: velop them so thickly. Having decided upon his opinion as to the motives and moods which animated the young prince, he gives them uncurbed expression, excepting as to the limitations which art imposes. He believes that Hamlet was not insane—that he merely simulated madness at certain points of his career where he suspected that the conversation of those about him held snares for him; and so belfeving, he is not content with merely expressing his views throuch the newspapers. He makes them speak for themselves—vigorously, too—in his perform- ance. His assumptions of madness are ex- travagant, and he takes pains to make it clear to the audience by his contempt for the objects of his deception that they are assumptions purely. His scenes with Poloni- us are marked by a disdainful irreverence, which is not usual, but which is,of course, en- tirely consistent. M. Prad’s performance of Poloniuswas a departure from the customary impersonation. He made It what many peo- ple consider it normally to be—a character in which the element of comedy, and not that of patriarchal dignity predominates. Madame Segond-Weber was sweetly senti- mental and the embodiment of fragile grace in the role of Ophelia. It was a most im- pressive and admirable performance, one that will probably never be forgotton by any of those who saw it last night. Tonight Mounét-Sully appears in what many con- sider the greatest of all his characters, “Qedipe Rol.” National. ristocracy,” a play by Bron- son Howard, chief of American playwrights, first saw itself materialized in this city one night in 1892. It began its third engage- ment last night. ‘“Aristocracy” is really a great play; it contains a germ of interest that lives always and grows always; it may have {ts faults—all things human have—but its merit atones for them, and when tt is given into the keeping of such players as Mr. Charles Frohman puts into a cast, its proper presentation is assured. There’ are some new faces among the players, notice- ably Mr. Lipman, as the Prince, and Miss Mary Hampton, whose Virginia is more agreeable than that of Miss Viola Allen, be- cause it lacks the weepful wail of Miss Al- Jen's tone. Mr. Massen is a new Mr. Stock- ton elso; but Miss Blanche Walsh, Miss Josephine Hall and Mr. Frederic Bond are still with it, and they are ever a charm and delight. Mr. Bond is a Washington favorite, from last summer's acquaintance, and he was given a mild boom every time he got himself between the scenery and the audi- ence. Just how long “Aristocracy” will be a drawing card there is no means of de- termining, but it does not strain one’s guessery to venture the prediction that it will stand permanently as an American play. Academy.—It has not been a great while since Mr. Daniel Frohman’s Lyceum Com- edy Company presented Sardou's clever comedy, “Americans Abroad,” in Washing- ton, but to have seen the audience at the Academy last night one would have con- cluded that it was a first night, or a sou- venir occasion, or something of that sort. It was an agreeable audience, too, and one to inspire the players to their best efforts. In the cast, as of yore, are Mr. Gilmour, Mr. Polk, Mr. Owen Fawcett, Miss Maud Harrison, Miss Rivers, Miss Kinnaird and othe and the new ones are Miss Jennie Kis k, as Mme. Pontcarre, and Miss Mary Ellott-Page, as Mme. Olivares. With such a cast, and the practice which makes perfect, only the most satisfactory results may be obtained, and “Americans Abroad” is most eminently satisfactory. Kernan’s Lyceum Theater.—The City Sports presented a vaudeville entertain- ment last night that classed with the best of the season. A quartet of dancers who appeared at the world’s fair gave a clever entertainment, and their acrobatic feats were startling. Zitella and Flynn were en- tertaining, and the challenge ballet, led by Gus Sohlke, was prettily executed. The high kicking by Lillian Lancaster, Gus Sohlke and Emma Rose Lee was also good. A novel burlesque, “The Merry Buccan- cers,” closed the performance. Again to- night. “Alone in Central Africa.”—At the Build- ers’ Exchange Hall, on_ 13th street, to- night, Dr. Albrecht Wirth will de- liver a lecture, entitled “Alone in Central Africa,” which will be a graphic descrip- tion of scenes and incidents experienced during a trip into that unknown country. It will be undoubtedly full of information and entertainment, and should be listened to by a large audience. Prof. Gleason.—The celebrated trainer of refractory horses, Prof. O. R. Gleason, will be at Convention Hall on the 27th instant, and will guarantee to bring under subjec- tion any vicious animal that may be brought to him. Prof. Gleason has visited Washington before, and his power to sub- due biting, kicking and other bad habits of horses 1s well known. He has always per- formed before large audiences in this city, and such will undoubtedly be the case now. ‘ For the Hermitage Home.—On Tuesday | afternoon, May 1, there will be a notable | performance at Albaugh's Opera House for | the benefit of Hermitage Home, the former residence cf Gen. Andrew Jackson. It will ;be under the patronage of Mrs. J. G. Car- lisle, and the program will include a colo- {ial ball scene in costume, during which the minuet will be danced; the operetta, | “Jacobi,” and the comedy, “Limb of the | Law.” The Marine Band will be in at- |tendance, and the entertainment will un- | doubtedly be well patronized. “How Well You Look” FRIENDS SURPRISED AT THE WONDERFUL IMPROVEMENT. “C.
