It is Listened to by a Large and Fashionable Audience at the Academy of Music. The production of a new opera is always an interesting event, but when the work is the product of local musicians there is an added interest, and when the performance is given by local singers and for a local charity all the elements of public anticipa- tion are present. Perhaps all these facts combined to make the initial performance of “Coron>t and Coin,” the new opera by Messrs. Fort, Smith and McLeod, at the Academy of Music last night such a notable event. ‘The audience was large, fashion- able and enthusiastic. The charity for which the performance was given was the Children’s Country Home, in which some of the most prominent society people are in- terested, and they turned out in force to swell the box office receipts, as well as to give the new opera a proper sendoff. No similar work by Washington composers was ever presented under more favorable auspices, and the verdict of success was pronounced by the time the first act was finished. The musical score is filled with bright and catchy melodies, and some of the con- certed numbers are decidedly ambitious in their construction, notably the prayer at the close of the first act and the finale of the second act. The work of both cast and chorus was highly commendable, and the authors of the opera have every reason to congratulate themselves upon the efficient manner in which their work was presented. In the cast were several who have had experience on the professional stage, and they brought to the parts they assumed the experience they had gained, which added to the effectiveness of their work. Mrs. Kitty Thompson-Berry sang the lead- ing soprano role of Lady Beatriz, and found great favor with the audience, re- ceiving a pronounced encore for her solo “Vincenti, Where Art Thou?” Miss Flor- ence Grigg, in the part of Mantilla, locked very fetching in her sailor costume, and was easy and graceful throughout the en- tire opera. Her singing of “When Jack Comes Back to Stay” compleiely captured the audience, and was again and again de- manded. Mrs. Gertrude Bangs-Burns scored a decided hit in the part of Democrata, a spinster with kittenish ways, whose am- bition is to be a duchess, and displayed re- markable ability as a comedienne. Miss Anita Hendrie was a handsome and dig- nified queen, and also a charming widow, anxious to change her name and station. Mr. Herndon Morsell, as Vincente, was nt advantage, and in all his solos his voice was full, rich and true, while his finished method won for him the warm eppreciation of his hearers. Hub Smith, as the adventurous Don Francisco, sustained the burden of the comedy work in his own inimitable style. Many of his Iccal hits were really witty, while all of them were bright, and. his topical songs were encored over and over again. George O'Connor wore the regal robes of King John with dignity, and: as Democratus, a citizen of Bellamya, was very clever, sing- ing “I Am a Haughty Millionaire” so as to elicit much applause. David Bangs, as the sailor Pedro; Edmund Fox, as the schem- ing Sanchez: Mills Thompson, as Hack Sack, an Indiar chief, and Paul Evans, as the court chamberlain, were good in their respective parts, and contributed by their correct singing and spirited acting to the general success of the opera. The chorus, which was quite large, sang in the most effective manner, and showed the result of their careful rehearsal by Mr. McLeod. A mandolin and guitar club, under the leader- ship of Mr. Yundt, added to the effective- ness of one of the scenes, while the dances were under the supervision of Percy Leach. The completeness of the stage setting and werk was due to the efficient management of Mr. Percy Winter. Thcse who participated in the chorus were: Miss Adkins, Miss Bayley, the Misses Ball, Miss Berry, Miss Bush, Miss Caulfield, the Misses Cox, the Misses Douglas, Miss de Ronceroy, the Misses Edelin, Miss Fos- ter, Miss Ford. the Misses Gardner, Mrs. Gilmore, Miss Hutton, Miss Howell, Miss Hargrove, Miss Jordan, Miss Jeffrey, Mrs. Kurtz, Miss Mullet, Mrs. Murray,’ Miss Moore, Miss McMillan, the Misses McDon- ald, Miss Na: Miss Ross, Mrs. Rollings, the Misses Ream, Miss Reed, Miss Stearns, Miss Tyler, Miss Willett, Miss Willey, the Misses Valk, the Misses von Entress and Miss Williamson, Messrs.

THE Public Charities to Be Discussed at the Meeting Tonight. “Public Charities in the District of Co- lumbia” will be the leading topic to be con- sidered at the meeting of the board of trade in the hall of the Builders’ Exchange, at 7:30 o'clock this evening. The subject will be introduced by the presentation of a report which has been carefully prepared by the committee on charities. Afterwards opportunity will be afforded those members | who wish to do so to express their views on the many questions involved in the or- ganization and working of our system of public charities. The famous potato-raising plan of Mayor Pingree of Detroit will be talked of, with the idea of ascertaining whether vacant lots in Washington cannot be put to as good a use as in our sister city of the west. Those of the public who have been ac- customed to contribute to the charities of the District and who are, therefore, es- pecially interested in the subject of the wise distribution of the monies collected for such purpose, will be welcome to the meeting to hear the report of the commit- tee and the discussion of the topics treated of therein. Baltimore also will be heard from at this meeting, as a delegation frum that pro- gressive center will be present to give the members of the board of trade all the in- formation they could wish to have about the centennial exposition, which is to be held on the banks of the Patapsco in 1897. ——— THEY SHOT TO KILL. Brother-in-Law of the Tillmans Shot by B. L. Jones. John C. Swearingen, a brother-in-law of Senator Tillman and ex-Congressman George Tillman, was killed in Edgefield county, S. C., Wednesday, by B. L. Jones. They met in a trial justice's office, where Jones’ son was to be tried on a charge pre- ferred by Swearingen. Jones and Swear- ingen are connected by marriage, but there has been a bitter feud between their fami- lies for some time. Jones’ son gave Swear- ingen the lie, and his father said he was responsible for it. Both men drew their pistols simultaneously. Jones emptied his, putting four balls into Swearingen, who only lived a few minutes after "being wounded. Swearingen only fired one shot, which did no damage. Jones has been jailed. cee ee aS Robbed a Bank for Years. Charlotte, N. C., has a sensation, which 1s also a great shock to all its people, as it involves the ruin of one of its leading men. J. R. Holland, the veteran cashier of the Merchants and Farmers’ tional Bank, assigned all his property to the bank last Saturday night. Bank Examiner Mil- ler had detected something wrong in Hol- land’s book Friday. He made no mention of it, but continued his examination. Mon- day ‘he discovered that Holland had been overdrawing his account for years, and making false entri to prevent detection, It was found that on each visit of the bank examiners, Holland borrowed the amount necessary to cover his shortage, put this in bank until the examiner had finished and then returned it. Teller Butt declares he took Holland’s statement and figures without question, The shortage approxi- mates $50,000, One Swallow “don’t make a spring.” Neither will one bottle of Scott’s Emul- sion cure a well established case of Consumption, but it will ease the Cough, relieve the irritation and arrest the progress of the disease, and if persistently used, with the observance of the laws of health, will surely restore the patient in the early stages and give great comfort and prolong life in the latter stages.

A mad dog created consternation in Ten- leytown last night by rushing through the place snarling, biting at everything sav- agely, horses included, in the meantime foaming and frothing. It was a big bull, formidable in appearance. It attacked an- other dog near Walker's gate, and bit and fought it nearly to death. Officer Pearce coming along killed the attacked animal and made for the attacker. Three bal were fired into the mad brute. They ap- parently made but a temporary impression, causing the dog to fall each time, but securing an immediate recovery of his feet. The savage animal, during this mecting with bullets, was the whole time attempt- ing to jump upon and bite the officer's horse. The latter was kept keenly alive to the situation, and jumped and pranced about with human intelligence in his efforts to keep clear of harm. The officer emptied nine balls into the dog, two from a bor- rowed revolver, and finally had to resort to a shotgun, before death came to relieve both the afflicted animal and terrified com- munity. During the officer's struggle chil- dren were hauled inte houses and doors and windows closed. Tenleytown was in a perfect fever of fear. As far as is known no person was bitten, but several hors and dogs were. Whether the horses wi become serious!y aftected or not cannot be definitely stated as yet. Notes. Last night Sunday school officers were elected at Mt. Tabor M. P. Church as fol- lows: Rev. R. K. Lewis, superintendent; E. H. Myers, assistant; Theo. Barnes, treas- urer; Geo. P.
