Grand Opera House—The Grand Opera House wiil fave an attraction next week that will excite considerable interest and attention. It will be Otis Skinner's first ap- pearance in Washington as a star and the first production of Clyde Fitch's new com- edy drama, “His Grace de Grammont,” and of a new version of Victor Hugo’s famous tragedy, “Le Rol S'Amuse,” called “The King’s Jester. Mr. Skinner, though still a young man, has had a long experience as an actor, oc- cvpying @ commanding position for several years with Lawrence Barrett, the famous Bocth-Barrett combination and Mr. Au- gustin Daly's company. Last season he was starred in conjunction with Madame Modjeska.” In Clyde Fitch's successful new play he has, in Count de Grammont, a role delightfully suited to his graces of person, his artistic temperament and spiendid voice. ‘The story deals with the love affair of De Grammont and Miss Hamilton and ts treat- ed in a strong, romantic and dramatic spirit. Both plays will have splendid pro- ductions. Mr. Skinner has surrounded him- self with an excellent company. The list of names includes Frederick Mosley, R. Peyton Carter, Frank L. Sylvester, Wards- worth Harris and the Misses Maud Durbin, Sarah Truax and others. Butler's Bijou Theater.—Jas. B. Mackie’s new play, ‘The Side Show,” which will be the attraction at Butler's Bijou Theater rext week, is said to be one of the most amusing comedies known to the modern stage. “The Side Show’ tells a coherent story, which fs carefully adhered to throughout the play. It serves as an ex- cellent medium for the introduction of many pleasing specialties. The ensemble of the company consists of the following well-known artists: Waldo Whipple, George urner, Walter Phillips, H. E. Mosler, nford, Kittie Gilmore, Laura Ash- Mille Addie, Nellie Russell and James . Mackie, the only Grimesey, Me Boy. Kerna: yeeum Theater.—The attrac- r= at “1 nert wack wil he Gua Hiil's Novelties, an organization composed | one of which is a recognized “star,” stand- ing pre-eminent in their respective lines. A glance at the roster is a sufficient guar- antee of this. The company is headed by Les Voujeres, French eccentric dancers, singers and comedians, direct from the Alcazar ‘heater, Paris. Others whose names appear on the big program are Hacker and Lester, the cycle wonders, and acrobatic performers on wheels, from the principal theaters and circuses of Europe; Billy Carter, banjo and monologue artis Dryden and Mitchell, character comedian: Swan and Bambard, grotesque knockabout stars; Estelle Wellington, the charming vocalist and dancer; Montague and West, the comedy musical duo; Wiils and Halpin, as the copper and the tramp; Nelson and Wedge, up-to-date sketch ‘artists, and Gus Hull, champion club swinger of the world.

Hopper, in “The Vale of Avoca,” will be the at- traction at the Academy of Music next week.

This concert promises to be even more successful than the lasi, and the sale of seats is progressing rapidly. The Schumann Lady Quartet—The musi- cal contingent of Washington will have an- other chance to hear Hall’s Schumann Lady Quartet on Monday evening next at the Calvary Baptist Sunday school nouse. This concert is under the auspices of the Y¥. P. 8S. C. E. of the church, and judging from the advance sale of tickets, will be @ successful one from a financial stand- point as well as from a musical one. This quartet comes well recommended, having been under the direction of Prof. L. A. Phelps from the time of its organization, and received the medal at the world’s fair on account of the excellence of its singing. It consists of Miss Mary D. Hall, first soprano; Miss Mabelle Waller, second so- prano; Miss Katherine Jones, first contral- to, and Miss Tille Heuchling, second con- tralto. The quartet will be assisted by Miss Jessie G. Patton, one of the most talented readers and elocutionists of the west. Seats are now on sale at White's music store, %5 F street northwest. Prof. Boyd’s Memory Lecture.—Quite a large number turned cut to hear Prof. Asa S. Boyd in his lecture on memory, how to acquire and retain, iast evening at the Western Presbyterian Church, on H street near 19th. Prof. Boyd demonstrated the practical part of memorizing, and gave mapy pieces of advice on how to retain what has been acquired with little effort by his system. Mr. Vincent's Lecture.—Mr. Leon H. Vin- cent delivered his lecture on George Eliot last evening at Wesley Chapel, corner of 5th and F streets. Although the weather was bad, a goodly number were in attend- ance and listened to the best lecture of the course. He went over the works of George Eliot, classing them in several groups, and pointed out many interesting and historical facts about the great authoress and her life's work. Prof. Carpenter.—Prof. Carpenter never seems to wear his welcome out in Wash- ington. He stays here.as long as he pleases and draws crowded houses every night, which testify to his power to amuse and astonish. He will continue to give his ex- hibitions every night except Monday at Odd Fellows’ Hall, on 7th street between D and E streets, until further notice. Fcpular prices prevail, the box office being open from 2 until 4. Mr. Crane as the Senator.—Notwithstand- ing the wretched weather the sign “stand- ing room only” was out at the New Na- tional Theater, for the house was crowded to witness Mr. Wm. H. Crane’s masterly impersonation of Harnibal Rivers, in “The Senator.” His performarce was given with that completeness, unction and finish that characterizes all the work of this admir- able comedian, and his delighted audience testified their appreciaticn by the most liberal laughter and applause. Tonight Mr. Crane will present a new play by Martha Morton, entitled “His Wife’s Father.” This will be its first representation on any stage. Carroll Institute Hall.—There will be a Tausicale by the pupils of the Academy of the Holy Cross at Carroll Institute Hall on Wednesday next, for the benefit of the new Home of Our Lady of Mercy, on North Capitol street. This home is not sectarian, as inmates of all dencminations are taken. The program will be an attractive one. ———— Carpenter on Corea. Mr. Frank Carpenter’s lecture on Corea or the Hermit Kingdom at Metzerott Hall last night was one of the most interesting of his course. He told of the great an- tiquity of the people in that kingdom, of their customs and habits and how little is Known of them. More information was fur- nished in Mr. Carpenter's talk than had ever been given in any lecture in this city. The views presented were remarkably at- tractive and aided materially in illustrating the descriptions and incidents by the lec- turer. Mr. Carpenter's explorations in the kingdom were most extensive and with Keen news instinct he caught views with his camera on every hand, so that one who saw the pictures presented last night and listened to the words of the lecturer knows more of Corea and her people than ever before. Tonight the lecture on Corea will be repeated. Mr. Carpenter's course has been remarkably successful. He has proved the most entertaining lecturer, ex- cept Stoddard, now before the public. His views are numerous, rare and beautiful, and without pretending to any of the graces of oratory, he tells his story in a conversational way that pleases and inter- ests his audiences. —_——_—_ Some New Houses. James B. Wimer, real estate broker, re- ports the sale to Jesse B. Wilson of a cor- ner lot on Connecticut Avenue Heights. Mr. Wilson has closed a contract with Mr. Edmonston for the erection of a residence on this site frcm pians prepared by James G. Hill, architect.

MERTZ 906 F STREET. & "MERTZ, It LOCAL PRODUCE MARKET. A Quiet, Steady Market During the Past Week. A quiet, steady market was that during the week closing tadayjas shown by the quotations prevailing in the produce ex- change. The open weather was favorable to both the producer and the purchaser, and the prices prevailing were apparently satisfactory to both. Ais a rule, the de- mand was equal to he supply, although in more than one product a slight advance in prices was due to the inability of the mar- ket to meet the dentané In one instance, -however, there was a prolonged absence f demand, butter be- ing more than usually slow. The supply in all grades was more than ample, aud the market was, therefore, weak and unset- tled. In the strictly fancy fresh cream- ery a plentiful supply;and surplus was responsible for a shading of prices. But, whue close buyers easily secured reduced prices, the low prices failed to increase the outlet. Grades next below fancy were plenty, but dull and weak. A slow market Was observable in the cheaper grades, and the general movement was easy, with low- er_prices. The supply of eggs was not up to the re- quirements of the trade in amount, the usual sources failing to give as much as heretofore. Consequently, outside markets, not so high as the local one, were called upon. Demand and prices were steady. Tt would be to the advantage of shippers to forward daily and promptly. A tairly steady market was noticed in poultry, there being no marked change in prices, and the supply fully met the de- mand. In game a quiet demand and low prices were the features of the week. The lack of venison was due to the outlaw of it since the first of the month. A good demand for dressed hogs con- tinued and fair prices prevailed. So, too, as to calves and lambs, the market being noticeably steady. Shipments may, there- fore, be profitably made. In the matter of potatoes and onions a good, steady demand was seen for sound stock. Prices, therefore, ruled even and firm. For inferior stock-there was a slow, varying demand, with weak prices. Apples of a high grade were not plenti- ful, a firm market, with good prices, be-. ing the result. Sound oranges were held at the quoted prices, frosted fruit being at purchaser's price. The season in dried fruit is opening nice- ly, and in all varieties, particularly in ap- ples, good prices prevail. The supply of hay continued large, but the prices remained stationary. Straw was dnl and prices low. Oats, however, were steady, the prices being good. An easing down of corn was observable, and for dry, new ear st quite a good demand de- veloped. ° Bee Reception to Little Ones. The talented young folks who comprised the cast and chorus of Prof. Harry Wheat- on Howard's operetta, “Jack the Giant Killer,” at its production several months ago for the benefit of the Legion of Loyal ‘Women, were the guests last evening at a reception in Masonic Hall, tendered the young folks by the legion. The little ones were gaily costumed, and presented a p‘c- turesque scene. When the grand march was formed it was learned with regret that “Queen” Marie Howe, because of illness, was unable to be present and lead her sub- jects, but she sent word that she would be there in mind, if not in person. Shortly after the grand march began Encampment 69, Union Veteran Legion, headed by a juvenile drum corps, entered the hall. Lieut. Col. Grindley of the Vet- eran Legion presented the Legion of Loyal Women with a handsomely framed and en- grossed set of resolutions complimentary to the latter. President Mussey responded suitably, and then,-on behalf of her or- ganization, called to: the front Prof, J. H. Vermilya, Mr. Halstead P. Hoover, Mr. Sheridan Ferree and Mr. Percy Winter, who rendered valuable assistance at the rendition of the operetta, and handed to each a valuable token in appreciation of their efforts. General dancing followed, and during an intermission the principal chorus of the operetta was sung, and there was an ex- hibition of fancy dancing by Misses Pau- line Bliss, Mabel Owens, Lizzie Rudd and Helen Durnin. Later in the evening re- freshments were served, the tables being decorated in colors, and attended by the ladies of the legion. ——-_—_ Musical Ansociation. Local Association No. 16 of the National Musical Association met yesterday and en- rolled seventeen new members. The rules of the National Musical Association were adopted and several short speeches were made. Arion Hall has been leased by the organization, and it will be open from 2 to 6 p.m. Sunday for the reception of visiting musicians.
