Manager Locke of the National Opera edmpuny had pronlspd us ““Nero” for the last nmight, but instasd, gave us the “‘Queen of Sheba.” The sewson assigned for the change was the defdetion of certain mem- bers of the company.

Rut, knowing of (this defection a week before his company #frived here, Mr. Locke should not have endeavored, up to the mo- ment people taok their scats for last night's performance, to perpetuate the deceit that the disaffected people would sing. He sought to excuse himself by endeavoring to produce “Nero,” with which the disaffected people had been identified, by the efforts of artisis who remain with him and who are even now over-worked. At the ldst moment, after al- most everybody has purchased his seat to hear “Nero,” “‘Sheba” is _ produced. This was a0 species of deceit unworthy & manager who wishes to elevate American opera. If Mr. Locke can not make & success of his present under- taking by fair means, he should not resort to those which are foul.” Everybody can_easily imagine what Mr. Locke will urge in extenti- ation of his conduct, Butit in no way lessens his offense. Deceit in amusement enterprises with what intent soever it may be encour- aged, is as reprehensible as it is in any other undertaking. Unfortunately, there is too much of it in the business which Mr. Locke follows. While considerate people will fgive this gentleman all the eredit he deserves, the; will unhesitatingly admit that Mr. Locké ought cither to start out upon _his enterprise in a manner commensurate with the ability to support it and act honestly orelse abandon the field for some other person, The audience, however, ‘bore the disap- pointment bravely. “Sheba” was rendored entirely to its satisfaction, when it is sidered in the main from a musical point. *The title role was assuied by oole. This lady’s voice is characterized by a penetrating quality rather than that of roundness which distingushed her prede- cighteen months ago. In' appearance, how- ever, ~ she more nearly approached the ‘ideal than could Mme. Fursch-Madi; her vocal work secured many recalls. The High Pricst was excellently sustained by George Broderick. Miss Pierson, as Sulamith, displayed the same intense devotion to her work that she did on the preceding evening, and possibly give throughout the piece more general sat- isfuction. She was wade the object of a num- ber of recalls. Mr. Charles Bassett sang Assad, at times with great effect, at others without making a very favorable impression.

The Sheely building, which is now receiv- ing the finishing touches, and which has been erccted the past year ou the northeast cor- ner of Fifteenth and Howard streets, will probably be used as a hotel. It'is a beanti- ful structure, centrally located, and with some minor changes would serve excellently for hotel purposes. Mr. Shecly has been considering this matter for some time, and is now engaged with the architects, Men- delssohn & Lawrie, with a view to determ- inx what chunges may be necossary in tho hmlnliufi The Murray hotel will not be ready for oc- cupaney till ‘about the 1st of February, at the carliest, and the opening may be delayed. Mr. Silloway is on the ground patiently awaiting the completion of the_interior.
