Confidence Expressed That the People of Washington Will Contribute the Money — The Addresses. About thirty of the members of the citi- zens’ committce selected to assist in the canvass for funds with which to erect a new building for the Young Men’s Christian Association of Washington met last even- ing at the New York Avenue Presbyterian Chureh and made arrangements fer en- tering upon that werk. In the absence of Chairman Foster, Mr. L. Cabell Williamson, president of the as- sociation, was called to the chair, and Mr. C. F. Nesbit served as secretary. The exercises were begun with prayer, cffered by Rev. Dr. J. G.

Contrary to the general rule, the chorus did not do the best work it was capable of. In the closing chorus of the second act its work was splendid and no fault whatever could be found with it, but in some of the other choruses the work was ragged and showed. in the work of the principals, an evident lack of care in rehearsal. The orchestra rendered efficient service. LAFAYETTE.—The wonderful work of Kellar, the magician, at the Lafayette last night delighted a good audience, and will continue to please and mystify for the re- mainder of the week. The entertainment is a strong card for the theater. Kellar is probably now the prince of magicians, and has reached tke perfection of his career. From beginning to end of the performance there is nothing stale in the work of Kel- lar. Seme of the tricks are not exactly new, but they are performed with a dex- terity and cleverness that gives them all the pleasure of new tricks. This is espe- cially so in the pure sleight-of-hand ex- periments. The display is unique, marvel- ous. Kellar rivals the greatest of spiritualis- tic mediums in the puzzles that he pre- sents. A clever conceit of the artist is the disappearance of his wife. She ts seen swinging in a chair in the center of the stage ip full view of the audience and with a bright light shining on all sides. Quick as lightning Kellar discharges a pistol full at the body of his wife, and she disappears as suddenly and mysteriously as if she had vanished into air. This feat is follow- ed by many still more mysterious. In what the wizard calls his blue room he furnishes some weird and astounding illustons and spiritualistic manifestations. Flower pots filled with sand suddenly show plants, which grow, and in a minute beau- tiful rose bushes and fruit trees appear. Kellar does not go near the pots while the aS in —— Re ellar’s own pearance is weird and ghostlike. The magician seats himself in a chair, and, waving his hands about his head, commards his body to dissolve in the air. He slowly fades away, still sit- ting in the chair and in the. full. flood. of the light. The chair back shows through his-form, and finally he is vanished. Kel- lar's reappearance is equally weird. The theosophic theory of the projection of astral bodies through the air is illus- trated in a way that approaches the super- natural. > ‘THE GRAND OPERA HOUSE.—The usual run of romantic melodramas, as pre- sented on the stage of tcday, deal almost exclusively with a hero, a villain and the sweetheart of the hero.. Thrilling experiences, deeds of daring and cruelty mest exaggerated and unnatural abound galore. All this may be applied to Morri- son’s production of “The Privateer,” as scen for the first time in this city last even- ing at the Grand Opera Hovse. There is a sensational escape from a burning mill, an attempted cold-blooded murder in the open sea, almost an execution on bogrd ship, in- terrupted by the arrival of the hero just in the nick of time from a supposed watery grave, and the fatal shooting of the viilain as he is attempting to mzke his escape over the roofs of houses. The villain holds sway from the rise of the curtain until it begins to descend at the conclusion cf the final act, when the hero rises to the top of the ladder amid tumultuous applause. ‘The Privateer,” in order of merit, however, is above the ordinary. It is graced with a well-defined plot and is well acted. The play deals with the ambition of the son of a poor miller to acquire wealth and social Petition, no matter what means must be rcsorted to to reach that end. He chooses to pose as the long-lost son of the wealthy captain of the privateer “Fire Fly,” but in order to do so must put out of the way the real son of the captain and also the boat- swain of the “Fire Fly,” the latter, in ad- @ition to the villain, being the only living person aware of the true identity of the long-lost son. ‘The play revolves around the nefarious efforts cf the villain to ac- complish his purpose. Lorimer Johnstone as the villain, George Wessels as the hero and Edwin Meyer as first assistant hero, so to speak; Miss Caroline Cook as the much-abused and misguided sweetheart of the villain and Miss Agnes Rose Lane as the sweetheart of the first assistant hero hear the brunt of the work. Others in the cast are Charles Mestayer, Louis Gilbert, Alex Graus, W. G. Beckwith, John C. Hart, Walter Metcalf, William Gray, Charles Dennis, Loyola O'Connor, Alice Knowlton and Annie Waring. The attendance last evening filled the seating capacity of the house, and the audience was as apprecia- tive and enthusiastic as could well be im- agined. BIJOU.—By far the best entertainment yet presented at the Bijou under the con- tinuous performance plan is given this week. At both the matinee and evening performances there were large attendances, and the management look for an unpre- cedented business. I'he Bijou stock com- pany presented for the first time that laughable farce, “Little Tatters,” and the audience was kept convalsed during its rendition. Then followed the olio, with Fred Darling in character songs, and the Whalleys, asironz pair of lady musicians, who had no trouble installing themselves favorites.
