GLEN ECHO AND VAUDEVILLE Some. Interesting Gossip About Well-Known Stage Folk. THE SUMMER SEASON It was expected that the Columbia Stock Company would close toniZht, put perhaps on that account, as well as because there was a change of bill every night, tue audiences at the Columbia Theater this week have been unusually large. The en- tertainment presented, however, has fully deserved the patronage bestowed, ard the msnagement, in response to many re- quests, has decided to continue next week, when “A Scrap of Paper” will be given: This is a charming comedy, and was one of the greatest successes of last season's stock company, and there is no reason why it should not be equally popular now. The change at Glen Echo from sterling opera to operette and vaudeville is said by the management to be advantageous in af- fording those who arrive at any time dur- ing the evening an opportunity to see a completed act. There will be a change of people next week. The Columbia Steck Company came near losing its brightest comedy star last week, and but for the timely intervention of friends James O. Barrows might now be on his way to fight Spaniards in Cuba In- stead of waging successful warfare against solemnity every evening at the popular lit- tle F street playhouse. As will be remem- bered by those familiar with his stage career, Barrows has served several years with the boys in blue, and has participated in countless battles. True, his service Was on the stage, and his battles were all shams, but thereby he acquired a military carriage and a general knowledge of the duties of soldier life. For several seasons he played Sergeant Barkett in “Shenan- doah,” and also served a term in the ranks of “Held by the Enemy.” With the thor- oughness characteristic of his impersona- tions, he set about acquiring all the knowl- edge of the life and habits of the charac- ters he was portraying, and by dint of cul- tivating the acquaintance of Uncie Sam's regulars Whenever and wherever he could find them, he became a veritable Mulvaney of the stage, apt in all the slang of the garrison and thoroughly proficient in the duties of the soldier, theoretically at least. Barrows long ago broke away from this line of parts, but habit remains with him so strongly that whenever he meets one of the boys in blue he immediately becomes chummy as an old campaigner. Recently Barrows decided that he needed some recreation from the onerous duties of directing rehearsals and playing every night, so one afternoon he started on a trip up the river. At first he intended to Tide his wheel, but, it bemg a hot day, he de- cided that a trolley car was good enough for him. On the car was a merry squad of soldier boys from Camp Alger, ‘who were osten- sibly going up to get a glimpse of the fa- mous Cabin John bridge, and incidentally to see such other sights as might happen their way. Barrows opened up conversa- tion with the boys, and was soon “hail fel- low well met.” He criticised the new re- crults in friendly style, and gave them pointers on soldiering until they concluded that he must be a soldier. In response to inquirtes Barrows replied that he was a sergeant, and, just by Way of jest, declared that he belonged to the Sth Ohio Regiment. “What are you doing out of camp with- out your uniform?” inquired one reverent recruit. “Oh, I'm just playing hookey on the cap- tain today,” replied Barrows, with a wink. “Why, your regiment has been ordered to the front.” “Well, I guess it'll have to go without me,” responded Barrows. ‘This avowal of an intention to desert did not strike the boys favorably, and, after discussing the matter over sundry bottles of liquid enthusiasm, they decided that it was their patriotic duty to escort him back to camp and turn him over to his com- mender. They were carrying out this laud- able purpose, in spite of the protests of Mr. Barrows, when luckily on their arrival in Georgetown the captive comedian espied some of the Columbia company who were just starting on a wheeling trip up the Con- duit road. They identified him, but Bar- rows has decided that it is dangerous to monkey with the military. Clivette, the juggler, who has made such a hit at Gien Echo that the management have continued his engagement another week, has attracted the attention of the scientists, as well as the amusement-seek- ing public, with his clever work. It has long been a problem among psychologists just how many occupations the human mind is capable of carrying on at once. Every child has tried the trick of rubbing the chest and patting the top of the head simultaneously, and found it difficult with- out practice. With development and prac- tice some minds are able to do two, or even three things, at once, although one or more are apt to be merely automatic. There are a few men who can write one letter while dictating another, but neither is apt to be remarkable for brilllancy of thought or grace of composition... Usually, in order to do a thing well, it is necessary to concentrate one’s attention upon it, and when one attempts to do two things at once both are apt to be badly done. But the juggler, by constant practice, is able to train his mind and muscles so that he can do several different feats simultaneously. Occasionally there is a man who can multiply these tasks. But Clivette, according to the psychological Specialists who have become interested, carries on no less than a dozen divisions of attention while performing his tam- bourine spinning trick. In the first place he is perched upon a small pedestal, where it is necessary for him to maintain’ a pre- carious balance. Then with each foot he spins a tambourine, a very difficult feat in itself. Upon each knee spins another tambourine; each forefinger upholds an- other rapidly-revolving disc, while upon a sort of a candelabra which he holds be- between his teeth, five other tambuurines spin merrily. He is obliged to watch ail closely, for the fall of one means the col- lapse of the whole, and how he Tnanages to do it 1s a puzzle to the scientists. Clivette says he simply achieved it by practice, but they declare that he is espe- cially gifted mentally. Walter Clark Bellows will direct the stag- ing of Hall Caine’s “The Christian.” Re- hearsals will begin August 15, and it will be first presented in Washington Septem- ber 26. The company will be the most notable seen in America for many years and the production will be elaborately staged. Mr. Bellows Is credited with being one of the ablest stage managers in Eng~ land or America, and was especially select- ed by Miss Allen, who was most favorably impressed by his work as producing man- ‘ager for the Frawley Stock Company in San Francisco. He is noted for his faith- fulness to detail. Miss Katherine Grey, who will play Cella Pryce in support of Charles Coghlan in “The Royal Box” next season, has returned from Paris, driven from the French me- tropolis by homesickness. She had expect- ed to remain abroad till August 1. She was especially engaged to play the leading fe- male role in Mr. Coghlan's new play, which he will produce in New York in January. Ti then she will fill the part of Celia Pryce. Mr. Will Tefft Johnson has returned from Europe, having just closed with the “Heart of Maryland*Company”’ in London. © He will spend his vacation at his home in this city. COLUMBIA THEATER.—It will be pleas- ant news to the patrons of the Columbia Stock Company, who have been regretting all the week that they were seeing the last of this excellent organization which has furnished first-class amusement for Wash- ington since the latter part of April, that by general request the season will be ex- tended for a week, in order to give a re- vival of that favorite bill of last season, “A Scrap of Paper.” It will be remember- ed that this was one of the best bills pre- sented by the first Columbia. stock .com- pany, and in spite of the-terrific hot excellent business. aHowever, many were obliged to miss it wnd mumerous requests have been received -for a revival of this clever comedy thiseseason. Therefore, al- though ‘the regular-zight weeks’ season of the stock companye properly comes to a close _with' the performance of “Innocent as a Lamb” tonight;:patrons of the Colum- bia . will be treated toba supplementary week and one of tite brightest comedies of the whole standardsrepertoire. As will be remembered, the play talis the story of a thoughtless ‘girl, allgough innocent of evil intent, who writes aifoolish note to a pass- ing flame. After hersmarginge to a very. jeal- ous gentleman shecrepents her youthful folly and in seekingrto recover her corres- pondence merely sumiceeds in compromising herself still furthat. at this juncture 4 clever woman frien undertakes to get her cut of the dilemma,zand:then ensues one of the. most interesting duels. between wo- Tan's wit and man’s wilt that has ever been seen on the stage. The play bristles with bright lines, and although pure-com- edy, is constructed ona basis of great dra- matic strehgth. It was a favorite in the repertoire of “Mr. and Mrs. Kendal during their American: tours, and last summer William’ Ingersoll did some of his finest work in the role of the colonel. He will have opposite“him the best: actress, he has Diayed with in Washington;and needless to say, Maud Haslam will do complete credit to the role. James 0. Barrows will be on familiar ground in the role of the abscnt- minded ola professor, while Mrs. Findlay will play the part which Kate Denin Wil- son had last summer, cand it is safe to say that. she -wil? not-suffer ‘by comparison, Vleanor Browning will have the-emotional rele of the wife, while Alex. Kearney wilt be the jealous husband. The rest of the characters will be well taken care of by the company. It will be impossible to prolong the season after next week, as several of the members of the company must report for rehearsals with theirregular compan- fes, while all are anxious to secure a little absolute rest before beginning their -next season's work. Therefore next Saturday night will witness the farewell of the Co- lumbia Stock Company to one of the most delightful summer seasons eyer played in Washington. weather of the weekxit was presented it did GLEN ECHO.—Gien Echo's untque com- bination of vaudeville and operetta has met with such favor that it will be continued next week, although with a complete change of bill. Only one act will hold over. and that is the clever juggling and shadow- graph performance of Clivette. This re- markable man has attracted attention in more liaes than as a mere entertainer. Not cnly is he aole to do half-a-dozen different lines of work, any one of which would make him a popular specialty performer, but he has a knack of combining his tal- ents and performing half-a-dozen different things at the same time in a manner that surprises and puzzles the scientists who make a specialty of the phenomena of the human mind. The operetta, presented by the prinefpals of the Parry Opera Company, will be Von Suppe's sprightly musical b lesque of “Galatea.” According to this ver- sion of the story the statue comes to life In response to the supplications of the sculp- tor, Pygmalion, but jilts her creator for his servant boy, Ganymede. Afterwards old Midas, the rich but ignorant art patron, tempts her with presents of the costliest kind, and she throws Ganymede over also. Iii short, during her brief existence in the flesh she stirs up so much trouble for all concerned, that, by special favor of Venus, she is turned back into stone again. The operetta abounds in music of Von Suppe’s sprightliest vein, and the comedy is unusu- ally strang. Misses Crater and D'Armon, with Messrs. Deshon and Hawley, will sus- tain the principal parts It is interesting to note that the mame: “vaudeville” was originally applied to» these little operettas in which music and light comedy are clev- erly combined, but imiaddition the manage- ment will provide a ‘program of picked spe- cialties direct from successful engagements on the roof gardens of New York. city. SOME MUSICAL NOTES Miss Lotta Mills, who is spending the summer at Takoma Park, will probably ac- company “Henri Martau on his tour through this country mext winter. Mr. Marteau was wonderfully pleased with Miss Mills’ playing, and thas avritten Mr. Wolf- sehn to secure her, 4t. possible. It will be remembered that when the Royal ItalianGran@, Opera Company ap- peared in this ‘rountry for the first time last season it gaye the first presentation of Puccini's ‘La Boheme’*that the United States. had. seen. Now that the manag2- ment of ths. Italian company has passed into the hands of the Imperial Anvusement Company, it has been decided to give the public an opportunity to hear Puccini's wonderful work in English as well as Ital- tan. Accordingly, the Imperial Amusement Ccmpany has seiected their best English organization, the Imperial English Opera Company, and early in September it will ge on the road with a splendid scenic pro- duction of “La Boh2me” cast to the best possible advantage, the roles having been assigned to the finest English opera ‘talent that could be obtained both within and out- side the Imperial Amusement Company's forces. Mr. Harry Wheaton Howard will preside vat the organ at the Calvary Baptist Church during the month of August, substituting for Mr. Gebest. The Sunday Night Music Club met at the residence of Mrs. F. G. Doubleday, on H street, and studied the allegro, the andante, tk2 minuetto allegretto and the trio from Mozart's 14th quartet, arranged for four hands, piano and string, together with Mendelsschn’s Rondo Brilliant, for piano and string quartet, Miss Lulu Hellen play- ing the plano solo. Miss Lucia Nola sang Schubert's Erl King, with Liszt’s piano and string accom- paniment, and Miss Nola and Miss Hellen Sang the Mendelssohn duet, “I Would That My Love,” with piano and string accom- paniment. Miss Jessie Cowling played Gil- lett’s “Precieuse,” violin solo with piano and string accompaniment. Bleven mem- bers were present. The work.of the Columbia Opera Club at the entertainment given at the Grand Opera House for the benefit of th= District volunteere was generally to be commended. Hub Smith's operetta, “A New Year’s Re- ception,” received an adequate interpreta- tion, and the performance reflected credit on Mr. George Lawrence, the leader of the club, It seems that most all the really good local musicians—those who love the art—drift to New York as soon as opportunity offers. Fielding Roselle, Ruth Thompson, Mary Helen Howe, Lotta Mills, all Washington girls, are now considered practically New Yorkers, for the field of work is larger and more remunerative than here. Mrs. Mills taught a_portion of each week last season In New York, and it is possible that she may remove there entirely, as she says she is beginning to feel decidedly New Yorky. Miss Helen Nye, the well-known seprano, will leave the city Monday for a three months’ vacation with friends in northern New York. Mr. Charles E.

Cape May, like most other resorts, is not overly crowded this season, but there are, however, an ordinary number of visitors here who are thoroughly enjoying the gay- ety which prevailed since the season open- ed on ihe 2d of the month. The cottage colony this year is as large as usual, and that element, which is so pe- culiarly promtment at Cape May, has charge, of course, of about all the social events which take place. At the hotels the regular visitors who come every year are here, and among the guests are a large number of Washing- tonians, who take an active part in the so- cial events. The family of ex-Postmaster Generai John Wanamaker arrived here today and opened their cottage for the season. Mr. and Mrs. Joseph I. Porter with their family, Miss Agn Porter, Irwin Porter, Dorham Porter, are staying at the Carlton, Cape May Point, for the season. Dr. George Byrd Harrison and family have opened their cottage here for the sum- mer. Mr. and Mrs. W. F. Fried and Miss Helen Skiles of Washington are guests at the Windsor for an extended sojourn. Mr. and Mrs. J. K. Adams are among ashingtonians staying at the Lafayette. Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Wallis are at the Brexton Villa for the summer, Mr. Howard Horace Furness, the well- known Shakespearean scholar, is staying at the Ebbitt. The family of United States Senator Sew- ell are occupying a cottage here for the summer. Mrs. L. B. Webb of Washington, who is spending a few weeks here, will shortly go to Saratoga, the White Mountains. and Bar Harbor for the remainder of the season. Ex-Justice and Mrs. Stephen J. Field will Pass part of the summer at Cape May. Mr, and Mrs. W. B. McKean of Philadel- phia are guests at Cape May Point. Mr. McKean was President James Buchanan's private secretary. Cc. E. Godfrey of Washington is among the late guests at the Stockton. Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Nordlinger have join- ed the Washington colony at the Star Villa! Mrs. Scott, wife of Lieut. J. Hutchison Scott, now on duty in Cuba, is a guest at the Carroll Villa with her mother for the summer. M. K. Asada of Japan is at the Stockton for the summer. Dr. Heron has taken possession of a cot- tage here for the season. Capt. Malcolm Seaton of the patent office is enjoying a stay here. Mr. and Mr: -. M. McClure of Wash- ington are guests at Cape May Point for the summer. Thomas J. Clark was among the Wash- ington guests at the Ebbitt.

ASBURY PARK, N. J., Jily 16, 1898. More than surf bathing or any of the other many diversions which’the summer- ites indulge in at Asbury Park, they enjoyed this week the magnificent spectac'e of the storm at sea. which prevailed during Tues- day and Wednesday. The high easterly gale sent the white caps tumbling against the Jersey coast as they had not done be- fore since last midwinter; and every in- jander in town turned out and spent all day promenading up and down the beach braving the storm—women as well as men —watching the breakers dash themselves into spray against the sand and bulwarks of the board walk. There is no danger of the plank promenade being damaged much this year, however. because a system of jetties which “Founder” Bradley con- structed a year ago have so built up the beach that the sand affords a natural and invulnerable protection to the planking. For several years the services at the Asbury Park Auditorium have been ad- dréssed by speake-s of national reputation. The national service, which is held every Sunday afterneon, has brought to Asbury Park most_of the members of the Harri- son and Cleveland cabinets, and many senators and representatives. The manage- ment has secured several distinguished publicists for this season. It is probable that ex-President Benjanin Harrison will be one of the speakers. Mr: John Wana- maker of Philadelphia has promised to come and so has Rev. Frank Talmage, son of Dr. T. DeWitt Talmage. “Founder” Bradley goes to a good deal of trouble to please the children that come to Asbury Park to play on his beach. Among the playthings that he has up and down the grass. the board walk are a number of superan- Bo-end 7% conta. nuated surf boats. These he has named after heroes of the Spanish-American war, “Dewey,” “Sampson,” “Hobson,” “Schiey.”” The latest addition to the collection of Playthings is a big whale boat, which Mr. Bradley purchased at New Bedford, Mass. It has seen long service in the arctic re- gicns and is for the present favorite of a!) the boats for the children. This resort will soon have a full-fledged base ball nine. It is being organized by Bronson of Yale, and will be made up al- most altogether of coilege players. There will, however, be one outsider, James J. Corbett. Mr. Corbett has been invited ‘o play second base on the team, and as ise is very fond of base bal! and cunsiders the sport good, light exercise, preparatory to a pugilistic encounter, there is no doubt but that he will accept. A series of games is being arranged between this team and nines from other resorts along the Je coast, and also probably with the New- port nine. A new patriotic fad has struck Asbury Park. The latest method that summer Buests have hit on for exhibiting their de- votion to the country and their apprecia- tion of the heroic deeds of our warviors, is naming the hops at the hotels after zen- erals and admirals and battles. The “Ma- nila” hop at the plaza a week ago «ttract- ed much attention. The ball room was dec- crated with the national flag and pictures of Dewey. A “Santiago” german is an- nounced at the Hotel Brunswick. Crow's Nest, that romantic little grove on the south shore of Deal Lake, where £9 many score of proposals have been made, has been greatly beautified since last sum- mer by “Founder” Bradley. He has put up swirgs, constructed new rustic srmmer houses and placed tete-a-tetes here and there along the wooded cliff, for all of which the summer girls and beaux are profoundly grateful. Mrs. C. M. French of W: spending the summer at the Graz Mrs. T. R. Cleaver of Washington ar- rived at the Surf House a wet President P. W.

Starr of Wasnington. Mr. and Mrs. A. E. H. Middleton Miss E. V. Middleton are Washington sojourning at the Victoria Dr. A. M. Henkle and family ton, Va., are recreating at Lrunswick.

OCEAN GROVE, N. J., July 16, 1888. The Sunday School and Chautauqua As- sembly, which has been holding its four- teenth annual session this week, has come to be a matter of great pride to this re- scrt. The Ocean Grove chautauqua does not yet, of course, claim to have the dignity or to offer the advantages that the parent chautauqua does, but ‘t is the aim of its managers to develop the courses of in- struction as rapidly as possible and to make the Ocean Grove chautauqua at the earliest possible date nearly, if not quit on a level with the big summer school, which attracts so many to western New York. The superintendent of instruction here is Prof. B. B. Loomis, Ph.D., D.D., of Albany, N. Y., who has gathered around him a strong corps of teachers. The seri- ous work of the school is done during the day and in the evening pcpular lectures attract tens of thousands to the auditorium The faculty includes Bishop John Heyl Vin- cent, D.D., LL.D., the father and chan- cellor of chautauqua, who is giving a series of lectures, including the commence- ment day address on next Thursday; Rev J. L. Hurlbut, D.D., principal of chautau- qua; Prof. W. A. Hutchinson of Penni ton Seminary, Pennington, N. J.; Prof. O. G. J. Schadt of Philadelphia, Bishop J. N. Fitzgerald, D.D., LL.D.; Prof. C. A. Brad- ford of New York, Mrs. Marion Lelan.’ New York. Prof. Frank R. Robinso celebrated traveler and lecturer, giving a series of addresses, illust the stereopticon, on foreign countr! Norway, China, Japan, ete. The cour: of study are being followed by about students, and at the end of the session these who pass the examinations set will receive diplomas. A large number of peo- ple who have been taking the chautauq’ course of reading are coming from the mid- dle and southern states to receive their diplomas at the hands of Bishop Vincent The school will continue in session until July 22. For once the worshipers who are crowd- Ing this resort and who come here to at- tend meetings first of all and all the ti possible were glad this week to etay away from church and go down to the beach t see the storm at ses, which prevailed on Tuesday and Wednesday. A heavy eastern gale sent the breakers smashing against this coast and presented a spectucle whict all inland visitors longed to see, but whi they do not have the fortune to witness every summer. It ts a noteworthy fact that the people who frequent Ocean Grove exhibit more sentiment about the than do the Asbury Park crow stance. They frequently sing about ecean on the camp grounds; some the of the favorite hymns are those which compare God's mercy to the boundless sea. So not a camper who was able to brave the gale and get to the beach while the magnificent exhibition of boiling surf was on failed to embrace the opportunity to see the wrath of the clement in all its glory, even de- crepit old ladies and invalid men in chai: were pushed along the board walk in the face of the stiff nor’easter. In fact, the whole town turned out, deserted the holi- ness and young pecples’ meeting and spent the days and part of the nights too in- cased in waterproofs on the beach. Preparations have already been begun for the Damrosch musical festival, which is to be held in the auditorium the middle of August. A local chorus of a thousand veices is being organized to assist Dr. mrosch in rendering the oratory of the Messiah.” The chorus is being Grilled Prof. Talie Morgan of New York. Ameng the Washington arrivals of th¢ week at this resort are Clarence J. Fisher and Worth L. Harper, who are stopping at_Dr. Starks’ Hotel. Cc. L. Birch and Miss Turner are Wash- ington guests of the Hotel La Pierre. Rev. Dr. Julius E. Grammar, the emi- nent Baltimore divine, has returned with Mrs. Grammar to the Sheldon for the summer.
