The contests for the elocution medal will be public this year and will take place in Gaston Alumni Hal] on Tuesday at 8 p.m. Mrs. Robert S. Chilton of this city has presented two valuable additions to the gallery of “Georgetown Worthies.” One of these 1s a photograph of her brother, John Carroll Brent, and the other is an oil paint- ing of Robert Walsh, who was a bright boy at Georgetown at the time of Washing- ton’s first visit In 1796, and delivered a poetical address to the father of his coun- try. The senior class will give a public dis- putation in Gaston Hall June 3, on psychol- ogy and ethics. Messrs, Tobin, C. Chan- rean, Hopkins, O'Leary, Tierney, Gaynor, Bahy and Bradley will take part in the discussion. The following officers of the athletic as- sociation were recently elected for "5-96: Walter S. Martin, ‘96 vice president; Francis Slattery, '96, secretary; Conde M. Nast, law, manager of base ball; Thomas J. Duffy, ’98, journaiist; Charles B. Burke, , Manager of field and track athletics. ‘The Rev. W. J. Ennis, S. J., for some time professor of rhetoric, was recently the guest of the faculty. The dates for the final examinations in law are as follows: Equity practice and pleading, May 22; bills and notes, May 23; evidence, May 25; torts, May 29, and corpo- rations, May 28. More than one dozen essays hawe been handed to the secretary for competition for the annual cash and book prizes offered for the best essays from among the mem- bers of the senior and post-graduate classes. At the faculty meeting held last Mon- day night among the many important matters discussed, was the advisability of adding a course of patent law to the cur- riculum. The faculty thought favorably of it, and decided to make arrangements for beginning the course next year. The senior class in law will banquet at Page’s on the night of the commencement, and the post-graduates at the Shorcham on the same date. The latter class has chosen C. W. Darr as tcoastmaster. Catholic University. Permit has been granted to the univer- sity to erect on the grounds a cottage for Judge Robinson, dean of the law school. This will be the first of the series of cot- tages for professcrs which will soon dot the university grounds. Howard University. On account of illness J. G. Nicolay was obliged to defer his lecture upon ‘“Lin- coln,” which he was to have delivered on Thursday. A tennis club has been organized at the university, with D. O. W. Holmes as pres- ident, and B. Wellington Paxton as secre- tary and treasurer. Tomorrow President Rankin will deliver the baccalaureate sermon in the Rankin Memorial Chapel. On Friday next the commencement of the theological department will take place in the Memorial Chapel. IN MUSICAL CIRCLES The Need of a New Music Hall Sufficiently Large for Oratorio Work. This Subject to Be Dise ed by the Choral Society Roard of Directors —Other Interesting Items. It was expected that the new board of directors of the Choral Society would last night elect officers for next year, but, ow- ing to the lack of a quorum, that action was postponed until the 27th instant, when a full meeting of the board has been called. It is expected on that occasion that the matter of erecting a music hall will be thoroughly discussed. This is a subject that deeply interests the Choral Society, as well as other musical organizations in the District. There is at present no aval- able hall in which oratorio can be given with full chorus and enlarged orchestra and which will hold an audience sufficient- ly large to reimburse for the outlay. It is believed. that, with the proper effort, a sufficient sum of money could be secured from those who are interested in the pro- gress of music in this District to erect a suitable hall, capable of holding at least 2,500 people, and that this could be done so that it could be ready for use by next year. Several propositions have been made to the Choral Society to erect a hall, but the locations offered have not been desira- ble or there have been other circumstances which did not justify their serious consid- eration. It is now the intention of the board of directors to earnestly discuss the subject, with a view to arriving at some definite result. In the way of musical entertainments one is promised by the pupils of Mrs. Zelia Douglas Bucher, on May 28, at the Church of Our Father, which will be the third of its kind given this season. In her large patronage will be found a number of pro- fictent scholars in vocalization, as well-as in instrumental harmony, who will give a Ppieasing and unusually interesting enter- tainment, and the program includes selec- tions from some of the old masters, as well as compositions from many of the popular modern authors. The following numbers will ,be presented: Getbel’s “Beautiful Bells,” by a chorus of twelve gentlemen; Mulder’s Staccato Polka, Mrs. Moncure Burke; Lisat’s arrangement of the “Erl King,” Miss Love V. Moore; the Toreador’s Seng oe Mr. Ge insuti’s “‘Bedouin Love Song,” Mr. George Hawley Rockwood; Sydney Smith's “Starry Nights, Miss May Prosise; Mendelssohn's ‘Auf Flugelu Des Gesanges,” Miss Edith Potbury; Gounod’s “Sing, Smile, Slumber,” Dr. J.J. Carroll, with violin obligato by Miss Florence Henri King; Cavatina from ‘Robert le Diable,” Miss Katie Cullen; Red- ington’s “Love at Sight,” Mr. Louis H. Crowe; Millard’s “Waiting,” Miss Dolly Jaell’s “Troisieme Meditation,” Miss Sarah L. Avery; Geibel's “On the Moonlit Stream,” Misses Florence and Ma: Belle Chambers; Millard’s “Ship, Aho; Messrs. Conn and Rcckwood; Schumann “Hunting Song,” Miss Marie McGuire; Haydn's “Serenade,” Master Rollin Hood, and “Sweet Home,” arranged by~ Herbert Johnson, by a chorus of ladies. The Tinedo Trio has arrived in London, Ergland, and opened at Alhambra Music Hall, making a success. They had pre- vicusly made a hit at St. James’ Hall, and have evidently caught on with the London public. Prof. William R. Field’s Free School for the violin held a very successful carnival at Carroll Institute Hall last evening. A large audience of friends and parents were present, and the boys and girls who have been taking lessons for the past winter at this school showed wonderful advance in their playing. Those who took part in the program, whicn was followed by refresh- ments and darcing, were Miss Marguerite Harbers, Miss Pauline Furlong, Mr. Henry Miller, Miss Lottie Phillipps, Miss Mamie McWilliams, Mr. William Fellheimer, Miss Maud Fellheimer, Mr. James Babcock and the Misses Susie and Crissie Sprosser. ‘The coming visit of the Capital Glee and Rubinstein clubs to Richmond is exciting a good deal of interest in musical circles. Both organizations are rehearsing actively under the direction of Prot. N. D. Cloward, their conductor, and the interpretation cf the program arranged will be of a high order. it will be practically the same as was given at the recent concert of these two clubs in this city, and will afford the people of Richmond an opportunity of hear- ing some excellent choral wo! Quite a number of friends of the clubs will make the trip with them on the 24th instant. It is understood that the quartet choir at the First Baptist Church will be disbanded at the end of this month. It was hoped by the lovers of good church music that ar- rangements would be made to continue this admirably balanced organization, but such could not be effected, and the excellent voices of Mrs. Thos. C. Noyes, Mrs. Rheem, Mr. Mosher and Mr. Cloward will probably be_heard in other churches next year. Prof. Harry Wheaton Howard wil! sail for Europe early. next month. He goes to remain for two years, and in that time he will perfect himself on the piano and organ, as weil as in musical composition. Prof. Howard has doae some excellent work here, and has shown himself a musician of no ordinary merit. In the three children’s operas that he has pro- duced, “The LitUle Old Bachelor,” “Jacl the Giant Killer” and “The Cannibal King, he has evidenced the possession of the melodic faculty to a remarkable degre and one element of their’success nas been the fact that they were ail writte: within tne comprehension of children, and within the range of their voices. It is probable that Mr. Howard will take with him one or two librettos, and will undertake the writ- ing of romantic or opera comique while abroad. He is a young man, fuli of talent, and his friends predict a brilliant future for him. A party of Washington peopie went t Alexandria Tuesday night and nave a very, successful entertainment. Miss Anita Cluss gave several harp solos in an admir- eble manner, Miss Clara Flint sang ac- ceptably and the Mandolin Club furnished instrumental selections, a THE WOMAN'S RELIEF CORPS. Arrangements for Memorial Day—To Decorate the Graves. The Woman’s Relief Corps, auxiliary to the G. A. R., has made most of its ar- rangements for the observance of Memor- ialday, and the mefhbers have all been as- signed their duty. Mrs. Hamilton, depart- ment president of the W. R. C., has been appointed by Col. Sweet, chairman of the G. A. R. decoration, as his assistant, and five members of each corps in the depart- ment, with representatives of all the other patriotic orders, will meet in G. A. R. Hall the day before Memorial day to arrange the baskets and set pieces. All the flow- ers for decorative purposes are to be sent to G. A» R. Hall, and it is hoped that there will be a liberal supply. There are so many bodies of loyal wo- men who want to be recognized in the Me- morial day work that it is probable that there will be a profuseness of decoration never before known. The Woman's Relief Corps will have entire charge of the Tomb of the Unknown, Sheridan's grave, one sec- tion of the officers’ graves and two sections of the graves of the rank and file. All patriotic organizations are officially in- vited by the department pr€sident to place such flowers and emblems on these as seem fitting, as well as on the other graves. Col. Sweet, who has charge of the assignments, has notified all the ladies of the patriotic orders that they shall be recognized in the allotment. Sunday, May 26. G. A. R. services will be held in Gar- field Memorial Church in the morning, Bishop Hearst officiating, and in the even- ing at St. John’s. The department com- mander and his staff, and the department president with her staff, with as many members of the two orders as possible, wiil attend the two services. The young ladies who are being drilled by Prof. Howard to sing at Arlington have made excellent prcgress, and the selec- tions are most fitting for the occasion. Provision has been made by Commander Anderson and Mrs. Hamilton for decoration of every veteran's tomb within reach of the Department of the Potomac, and the bit of marble with its pathetic word “un- known” will be as tenderly cared for as it would if a towering monument stcod above the narrow strip of earth. SS New Trains to Philadelphia and New York. Owing to the opening of the Baltimore Belt Line R. R., the B. and O. has been en- abled to add new trains to its schedule, and to materially shorten the running time of old ones. See time table, this paper. ad AMUSEMENTS. Grand Opera House.—The next week’s bill at the Grand Opera House will be “The Guv’nor,” a play that had an extended run in London, and later enjoyed great success when presented in New York by the Wal- lack company. It is full of quaint humor, and contains a cast of characters that is well adapted to the company of Messrs. Bradford & Shaw. This company, headed by Mr. Frederic Bond, has won great favor with the theater-going public this season, and the plays presented have been such us to attract good houses. It is the intention of the management to bring out many plays that were former successes, and if it is found necessary to add to the com- pany, in order to strengthen it for special Productions, the best people obtainable will be secured. Butler’s Bijou Theater.—The old adage about some tales never growing old or tire- scme is fully exemplified by the success of “True Irish Hearts,” which is announced for the engagement at the Bijou next week. Though it is but a simple tale of love, in- trigue, manliness and villainy, judiciously mingled, it is one of the most interesting stories ever told. The comedy element is very strong, being thoroughly natural, and therefore, the more forcible. The scenic embellishments are of a surprising nature, being all new, and painted expressly for this production.. One of the most realistic effects ever produced will be the great cave scene, where the hero risks his own life to save the heroine from being burned to death. It will be put on in.a grand style, and, as a number of new comedy hits will be introduced, it is sure to be a success. Master Chrissie Sproesser and Miss Virgie Luckett, Washingon’s favorite child dan- cers, will appear in the cast at every per- formance. Kernan’s Lyceum Theater.—The attrao- tion at the Lyceum next week will. be Fiynn’s London Gaiety Girls. This supe- rior organization is cgnposed of a number of prominent specialfy artists and burles- quers. The performance is delightfully entertaining and presents several novel features which will be seen in this efty for the first time. The opening skit, entitled “The Gathering of the Clans,” will serve to introduce the full strength of the company. A strong olio follows, in which will appear Paula and Dika, the original French comiques, who come direct from the Follies Bergere, Paris, and are direct importation by this company; the Fergusons, society’s travesty stars; O’Brien, Jennings and O’Brien, the comedy hits of the season; Dottie Lathrop, the winsome little soubrette, and Wm. H. Daly, the well-known comedian. The performance concludes with the up-to-date burlesque entitled “King Kokomo,” which will in- troduce a coterie of pretty girls in natty costumes. Maneger Kernan’s Benefit—One of the most novel entertainments ever seen in this city will be given at the Lyceum on Monday evening, May 27, the occasion be- ing Manager Eugene rnan's benefit. The performance will made up of @ number of high-class specialty acts, and will include a rotlicking burlesque, which will be interpreted by a cast of well-known srtists, who have volunteered their serv- ices, and will come directiy from New York especially for this occasion. Present indications are that this will be the most successful testimonial both financially and artistically that has ever been tendered the manager of the Lyceum. The sale of ee den seats will open on Monday, May ‘Testimonial to Goldwin Patten.—On Tues- day, the 2ist, Mr. Goldwin Patten, the elocutionist, will be tendered a benefit at Masonic Temple. Mr. atten will appear in scenes from “Faust” as Mephis- topheles, assisted by W. M. Barrow as Faust; the closet scene from ‘Hamlet,” Mr. Patten as Hamlet, assisted by Mra. Mary T. Haywood as the queen; also some of the selections he has made so popular this winter at the different clubs and so- cleties. He will be assisted by Miss Mary Helen Howe, soprano; Miss Abbie Johnson, Miss Bertie Reichenbach, Miss Mattie V. Wade,. Little Loilie Belle Ray, Imperial Sera Club, W. H. Conley and others. Academy of Music.—“The Pearl Fishers,” sung by the Hinrichs’ Grgnd Opera Com- pany at the Academy of Music last night, presented a vein of Bizet’s inspiration as a composer entirely at variance from that fcllowed in “Carmen. The performance was interesting, as well as enjoyable, and the msnner in which the audience received it indicated that it might very well take a place in the standard repertoires with the operas which have grown so familiar. The stcry is of the East Indies, and, as in “Carmen,” the composer has made his music characteristic of the surroundings. The cast was a competent one. It included Koert-Kronold, Del Papa, Campanari and Viviani. One of the most admirable fea- tures of the work is the orchestration, which was ably handled by the players, under Prof. Hinrichs’ baton. This after- oon “Faust” will be given, and tonight ‘he Barber of Seville” will be repeated with the admirable cast that was heard last week. Naxt week will be the last of the crera season, and will be made notable by the appearance with the company of A. L. Guille, the phenomenal French tenor. The repertoire is as follows: Monday, “Il Trovatore;” Tuesday, “Huguenots,” with Kronold and Guille in the cast; Wednesday, “La Giacondi Thursday, “The Bohemian Girl,” Fridzy, “The Jewess,” with,Guill Saturday matinee, “Mignon,” and Saturday night, “Pagliacci” and “Il Trovatore,” in which all the artists will appear. New National Theater.—Last night Mr. t. C. Goodwin made his appearance in Gilded Fool,” and gave tho same care- ful interpretation of Chauncey Short that has been seen here many times before. That he thoroughly satisfied his audience was evidenced by the liberal applause he received. Next week Daniel Frohman’s Lyceum Theater Company will be the attraction here, playing “An Ideal Husband” Mon- day, Tuesday, Wednesday and Saturday matinee; “Fortune,” Thursday and Friday, and “The Wife,” Saturday evening. The Georgetown Orchestra’s Concert.— Metzerott Music Hall was filled last even- ing by a fashionable and appreciative au- dience on the occasion of the forty-ninth concert of the Georgetown Amateur Or- chestra, under the direction of Prof. Her- man C. Rakemann. The program was one of great excellence, and the lighter musio was combined with the heavier in a man- ner very pleasing to the ear. The concert was opened with the Coronation March, by Kretchmer, played with precision and @ dash that immediately took hold of the audience. The second number, Haydn's Second Symphony, was the ochestral fea- ture of the program. The expression in the second movement was exceedingly well brought out, while in the third movement or the menuetfo, the action was spirit and showed the results of hard and intel- ligent training. ‘The orchestra was assisted by Miss Mary Helen Howe and Miss Anita Cluss. Miss Howe sang the scene et aria from Gounod’ “Faust,” receiving unstinted applause at the close of the selection. Her pure so- prano voice seemed to strike a sympathetic chord in every one, while the richness of her tones were brought out by the orches- tra accompaniment, which was played in an excellent manner. Wagner's “Album- blatt” was the next number, in which the beautiful tones of the violins and the reeds were intermingled in a most harmonious ‘anner. Miss Cluss then played Thomas" “Autumn” as her harp solo, and on recetpt of an encore rendered a beautiful baliad in an artistic and graceful manner. The sixth number was a double one, compris- ing the prayer from the opera “Freschutz” and Ganne’s “La Czarina.” The latter was played with force and that peculiar that characterizes the movement of a ma- zurka, and won the only encore that was accorded by the orchestra during the even- ing. The concert closed with the overture, “Merry Wives of Windsor,” an extremely difficult composition, but bright and catchy, and at its finish’ the audience would willingly have received another encore. The affair was most successful, and the friends of the orchestra came forward an@ guaranteed the financial success of the concert in a manner that showed the city’s appreciation of this excellent organization, Prof. Rakemann, the conductor, has reason to be provd of the work done this season and of. the improvement made under his direction. “A Trip Across This Continent.”—Next Wednesday, will be given at St. John's Parish Hall, Georgetown, by the Boys?
