The Distingnished Tragedian and Hws Klegant Company in the Somber Dra “Fran. oesca da Rimini.” At Boyd's opera house last evening there assembled the wsual large, critical and intollighnt audience annually drawn togethor on the occasions of the visits to this city of Mr. Barrott. The fact that the new, or remodeled, tragedy, *‘Fran- cenca da Rimini,” was to be prosentod had doubtless much to do with the size of the attendance. The historic though somewhat legendary story is doubtless familiar to many readers, but a resume of the plot of Boker's play may net be out of place here: Ior the purpose of bringing to a close the bloody wars of the Guelphs and Ghibeling, it in proposed that Lanciotto, of the houss of Rimini, wed Francesca, the fair daughter of Ravena. Lauvcictto is & hunch-back, snd Taols, his brother, of brilliant basuty, is sent to do the wooing, [nstant love is tho result of tho meeting of Paolo and Francesca, but the former is trus to his errand, and woes only for his brother, Francesca boing porsuaded by her father that Lanciotto is the counter- part of Puols, consents to the marriage with the hunch-back, thourh loathing the union, Lanclotto is called from the very nuptial aitar to gird on the armour of battle, and leaves his new-made bride in the care of the handsomo Paola, What ought to huve been the result, is one thine; what was the ruinous and unhappy outcome, his. tory, logend, song, art and Boker's play por. tray to the fullest extont of heartrending de- talfe. Youth and besuty, love and passion erroda all srmvo of du 7, wad the goupla foll guilty victims cf thelr own irresistible charms, love scene between Paol Francescs is overaeen and overheard by Pepo, the court jester, who, ting Lanciotto for fancied injuries, hastens to the camp to stub him to the hoart with the cruel intelligence. Lanciotto takes horse for his desolated home, surprises tho guilty lovers, implores them to deny their sin, but consciance-stricken and hapless, and ovorcome by ths enormity of their offense, they seak death rather tnau tuli the untruth, Lanciotto slays them both an: rmm tho cruel climax ofithe tragedy by sui cide. Of course Lanciotto, personated by Mr. Barrett, is the central tigure of the play, and it is peculiarly suited to that trago- dian’s abiliti Within the crooked body is a heart as tender as a woman's, with touching love for faithless wife and betraying brother, while fiery outbursts succeed the most pathetic scencs in a manner such as only a great artist like Mr. Barrett could portray. Of this eminent actor's talents it is wnneces- sary to speak to Omaha theater In the mechanical part s art he is well nigh perfect; in pose and gesture, in quick perception of the thrilling effect of con- trast, in the melody and power of proper slocution, in gracefulness of manner, fortility of resources, in keenness of in- telligence, in careful observation of de- tail, in self-restraint, in strength of voice, in that peculiar chromatic quality necessary for the portrayal of the pa- thetic, in all the qualities, in short, which in combination make the polished and accomplished artist, he s fully equal to the best, if not beyond, any actor ever seen in this city. His most rnwoxful scene last evening was probably toward the tragic climax, where, struggling betweon the duty of avenging an outraged husband’s wrongs and the love for wife and brother, he implored thom to toll him that the jes- ter's atory was but a cruel joke; although all through the play he chained tho at- tention of the auditors at every appear- ance, Miss Marie Wainwright, as the unhappy Francesca, also won the hearty -menhy of all by her beautiful and pa thetic portrayal of the frail and faithless wife; while Mc. ¥. C. Moseloy, though taking the part of Paola on a fow hours’ notios, excelled his usual clever imper- sonations. It was regretted by many that Mr. Otis Skinner was unable to per- sonate this character, as it has been ro- garded by many as his best. The diffi- cult role of Pepe, the jester, by Mr. Liuis James, whiie an additioral feather in the cap of that fine actor's versatility, gave but little chance to judgo of his metal, admirers will await with impatience the opportunity to see his magnificent Bratus on Saturday evening. The other char- acters were fairly well sustained. Of the play it caunot be suid that it is as pure in tory or suggestiveness as might be wished, and many admirers of Mr. Bar- rett think it rather a singular cowci- dence, to say the least, that of the new tragedies which he has taken up of late Il bear on the uafaithfulness of the wife. Wo may say that it is worse than mere unfaithfulness, as the crime in each case partakes of the nature of wnceat. This is so with **Yorick’s Love,” whord. tho wife is untrue with a foster 80 somowhat the same in *‘Pen- drag n the case of Qeen Guinever and celot, and now again in “Fran. cesca.l It is true her marrisge with Lanciotto was not completed, inasmuch as he called from her side at the conclusion of the altar ceremony, but this fact and the whole trend of the play are used as an aplogy for the crime cor mittad. There is one scene, especially, that is very suggestive—where Paols reads to Francesca the story of the uilty loves of King Arthur's wife and or paramour, and where the faithless danghter of Ravena and the cnamored son of Rimin act out the story till it comes to the recital of the crowning crime, Paola, leas impulsive than Fran- ceaca, throws down the book and refuses to finish the story, but Francesoa pioks it up and urges him to follow the tale to iw finish, Ada which Francesca urged sin in this soene.

The floor was filled at an early hour by skat- ors, and very few seats reserved for spectators remained unoccupied by nine o'clock. As the band in attendance be- gan discoursing music the masqueraders filed out upon the floor and began exe- cuting graceful gyrations so easy to the experienced but fatal to the novice. Kooping time with the musi cians in the movement of feet and arms, and the gentle swaying of the body to and fro. Only those of long experience were ushered upon the floor during the early part of the evening. Lookers on who oceupied chars on either side, and above the flvor, often expressing surprise and admiration ss some unusually difficult tigure was executed. The grotesque cos- tumes, together with the false faces illu- winated by the electric light, and the constantly moving bodies of the wearers flitting hither and thither as if fleating upou unseen wings presented a picture at once as beautiful as it was novel. But the real sport of the evenmg, at loast for the spectators, began after the masks were removed and the flior was thrown open free to al! comers. The crowd that surged to and fro at this stage of the entertainment left very little space for professional skaters to show off fine tigures. (Grace gave way to awkward- ness, and these two opposites vied each other nntil the hour for closing arrived There were anumber of instances where an effort was made to stand on the head and feet at the same time; to execute the spread-eagle on all fours; dive head fore- wost and spin around on the elbow, or to sit down so short that the feet locked arms with the back of the neck; but such littlo trivial changes in the regular rout- ine acted only as an incentive for greater perservance. A few of the actors in last night’s rink entertainment went home wiser if not sadder beings, having learned a painful lesson. DISTRICT COURT. The Proceedings of Yesterday in that Tribunal, In the district court yesterdsy before Judge Wakeloy, the case of Estabrook against Thomas, which was tried to the court, was submitted and taken under advisement. Before Judge Neville the court room was filled to its utmost seating and stand ing capacity by those who came to hear the testimony in the case of the state against Sinclair, Her little daughter and aged mother were seated beside the defendant, who seemed to tako but little intereat in the proceedings. When court adj~urned .Jessie Taylor, the daughter of the complaining witness, and against whom the alleged offense was committed, was on the stand.
