To the Editor of The Evening Sti Referring to the communication of Pro Bono Publico that appeared in your issue of the 10th instant, and the article cun- tained in The Star of yesterday relating to the closing of an entrance at Albaugn’s Grand Opera House, permit me to say: It is time that public attention was called to the facts bearing on this case. ‘The plan proposed by the manager of the opera house ‘does not materially lessen fhe danger complained of. It ts proposeg to compel carriages ‘to assemble on 15tl street (so far 80 good), and call at the en- trance to the theater on that street for their patrons after the performance. ‘This will not avoid the danger complain- ed of. All agree that the owners of the house are entitled to great credit for pro- viding the new and handsome entrance leading from Pennsylvania avenue, but this affords no excuse for rendering the building insecure to life, by closing a more spacious exit, except at the moment of closing a performance, as now proposed. When the handsome improvement was finished the exit on 15th street was closed. By so doing, as shown by your correspon- dent, and as I can testify, as well as can many others, the house has been left with- out adequate means of clearing it of an audience equal to its capacity in time to avoid great danger to life in case of fire. By closing the doorway above mentioned @anger was greatly increased in another direction. The occupants of the spacious gallery are now required to descend to E street by a narrow winding stairway, poor- ly provided with handrails, without any other means of escape. This stairway would certainly become a mere death trap in case of a panic. Before the outlet on 15th street was closed provision was made for allowing persor if necessary, descending from the gallery to pass through gates into the vestibules of the theater and by this means effect an escape dowh the spacious stairways pro- vided for at the entrance on 15th stree| But little expense would attend the open- ing of the exit above referred to when erformances in the theater begin and a eeping of it open so that persons could pass out or in until the hour of closin: Macalester A PATRON. -——_——__ Holiday Rates vin Chesapenke and Ohio Ry.

The Sousa Band Concert.—Nowhere is there a warmer regard for John Philip Sousa than in this, his native city, Wash- ington is proud of his success, and its music-loving people watch his career with pleasure: He has now a band composed of the finest musicians ever got together, and their ensemble work surpasses that of any simiar organization. They are equally at home in classical works and in those of lighter character, while in the marches, for which John Sousa is famous, they are unapproachable. The two con- certs given at Metzerott Music Hall yes- terday afternoon and last night were pro- ductive of more enthusiastic applause than has been heard in Washington since Sousa was here last. While the artistic work of the band was applauded and appreciated, the real enthusiasm broke out when Sousa’s own marches were played, and the “Liberty Bell,” with realistic bell effect; ‘Menhattan Beach,” and his last effort, “The Directorate,” could have been re- peated again and again if the audience had had its way. Some of the novelties given on the program were a serenade by La- combe, jantation Dances” by Arnold, and the “fly Minuet” from Czibulka’s new opera, “Die Bajazzo.” Mr. Sousa has his force under perfect- control, and all were obedient to his will. Mme. Guthrie Meyer was the vocal soloist, and pleased by her excellent and artistic work, “The Knickerbockers."—DeKoven and Smith's opera, “The Knickerbockers,” was given at the Academy of Music yesterday by the excellent company gent out Messrs. Barnabee & Macdonald, and it pleased not only by its graceful’ melodies and witty dialogue, but also by the praise- worthy manner in which the members of the cast performed their parts. There are numbers that will prove very popular, and there is concerted music that is artistic as well as effective. The opera is well cos- tumed and mounted, and should meet with nearly as great success as “Robin Hood.” “The Cannibal King.”—Tonight at the hall of the Central High School there will be produced for the first time an opera by Harry Wheaton Howard, entitled “The Cannibal King.” The music is written es? pecially for children, and is said to be fully as pleasing in character as that of “Jack the Giant Killer.” Those who will present the work are all children of the public schools and they have been carefully rehearsed by Prof. Howard until they have reached a high degree of perfection. The book affords some opportunities for nice dramatic work and many of the young people have devel- oped considerable ability in that “respect. The story is that many years previous to the opening of the opera the little tribe of the To-dy-tu’s has been defeated in bat- ue by the king of a mighty nation (who were said to be cannibals). The king had declared that each twenty years he would return and carry off the most beautiful maiden as a ransom and if the To-dy-tu offered resistance they would be seized and eaten. The opera opens with festivi- ties attending the betrothal of Will o' the Wisp and True Heart. Speckled Hen in- terrupts the general rejoicing by declaring that this is the very day on which the dreaded cannibal king was to return and claim his ransom. Ali discuss the situation and decide that the best thing to be do is to select the maiden themselves by c Ing lots. The lot fell on Will o° the W True Heart tries in vain to think of ‘ way to save his bride from her frightful joom until he arns that Speckled Hen is quite willing to wed the cannibal king The solitary figure of a stranger is seen oaching and is greeted by all as. the | king In the second act it ts discovered that both the chief and Will o’ the Wisp have become resigned to ther situation. As they argue, though his majesty is a cant bal, still he isa king, and it is not every girl's privileds wed @ genuine king The chief ix at a loss what to provide for the king's rep ntil the broken-hearted lover, True Heart, declarer that he Is witl Ing to be sacrificed and eaten. Con piten tlone arise, but everything te cleared when it te din ed that the strane fe not the dreaied king nor even a oar nibal. The lovers are reunited and every- thing ends happil “A Gatety Girl the London sensation Girl” will be seen in Washington for the first time. The play is said to be ga jolly, rollicking skit, and has made a proflounced success wherever it has been presented. It captured New York when it was pro- duced at Daly's Theater, and it has been equally successful in other cities. There are handsome, shapely and well-dressed ladies and gentlemen who know how to wear a dress coat, as well as those who are good eccentric comedians. The scenery is attractive and there are songs and dances introduced that make . the andiences laugh and their feet go pit-a-pat. Some of those in the cast are Miss Decima Moore, Cissy Fitzgerald, Maud Hobson, Harry Monkhouse and Fred Kaye. The advance sale is already very large. Jack's Creole Company.—Manager Ker- nan’s attraction for next week will be Sam . Jack's Creole Company. This unique organization this season includes many new, novel and imposing features, among which will be the first presentation in this city of the Kilauni living pictures, which have been received everywhere with mark- ed enthusiasm. In the company are a number of clever comedians who are in ad- vance of the plantation, cotton-field and levee darkey, and who are imbued with original talent that m many instances they rank with the leading white specialty ar- tists of the ay. Next week at Albaugh’s entitled “A Gaiety performance of the opera of “Dorothy” by “The Players” of Co- lumbian University, which will take place at the New National Theater tomorrow afternoon, has excited a great deal of in- terest. ‘The undertaking is an arduous one by the young gentlemen, who hav been diligently rehearsing and will give a good account of themselves. The music will not be sung In unison, as is usually the case with college clubs, but will be given in parts, just the same as if it was a cast of ladies and gentlemen. Those who will as- sume female parts have been carefully practicing feminine ways and movements, and are confident that their sex could not be detected save for their names on the program. The perform: is not to be a burlesque, but to be a straight representa- tion of the opera. A great audience is sured, for the entire orchestra has been sold by subscription and nearly the whole house has been secured. It will be a fashionable audience, tov, for Mrs, N. 8. Lincoln has had charge of the disposition of the seats on the lower floor. Ovide Musin Concert.—The concert ‘to be given at Metzeroit Music Hall tonight should be well attended, for it offers the only chance Washington will have this season to hear that gifted violinist Ovide Musin and his excellent company. Mr. Musin fs one of the most artistic violinists on the concert stage. He was a performer at eleven und an instructor in a conserva- tory at thirteen. So he does not lack ex- perience. Whenever he has appeared in Washington before it has been to large audiences. With Mr. Musin this season are Annie Louise Musin, the fine soprano; Bessie Bonsall, a very good contralto: Fred. Elliott, a sweet-voiced tenor, and Edvard Scharf, the well-known concert pianist. The program is varied and in- teresting. As Mr. Musin Is anxious that the young musicians of Washington should hear him he has authorized special rates to be made to music pupils who apply | through their teachers. This concert will afford the last opportunity to those who wish to subscribe to the National Lyceum gourse and obtain ten entertainments for Mr. Finney’s Lecture.—The only attrac- tion having a local flavor in the list an- nounced by the National Lyceum Bureau recently for its course was a lecture to be delivered by Mr. Lewis Harvie Finney of this city December 19 at Metzerott Music Hall. Mr. Finney ts a local entertainer only in the sense tiat he is a resident of Washington. His experience in lecturing 1s not confined to this city. His subject 1s “The Glories of the Nile.” It will be well illustrated. ‘The Choral Society.—The “Messiah,” the best known and most popular of sacred oratorios, has a strohg hold upon the af- fections of the musical public, as well 2s upon a large element of the public that ts not strictly musical.
