The performers are colored, and render the old plantation melodies and dances as only the colored people can render them. Billy Kersands is still at the head of the list of artists, and it is said that the or- ganization will bring a number of songs and specialties in which it has not been heard here before. The noonday parade and free evening concert are to be a fea- ture of the Richards & Pringle’s Georgia, Minstrels this season. 1t o "'“m[ )i (lhlu Macdonough Theater.

So natural does she dare to be that as you watch her you are reminded of your own observation of every-day life. And how many mummers are there who give you this impression? It is hard to remember one, except Duse. Paul Schenther, a great German critic, says of the Italian actress: “A buman being!

Baldwin Theater. The old California favorite, James O'Neill, will open a two weeks' season at | the Baldwin Theater to-morrov ni;}u.‘ His career has been a long and interesting | one. Years ago, when he appear.d in | “The Passion Play” in this City, heat once ' jumped 1into National fame and was one of the most discussed and abused actors of’ the period. His long record with ‘‘Monte Cristo” followed ; in vain did O’Neill try to roduce other plays, such as the ‘Dead Heart,”” “The Envoy,”’ etc.; their s SS. \ was only mediocre and ‘‘Monte Cristo’’ continued to be his mascot. At last O'Neill resolved to return to tragedy, which had been his first ambition, and he | produced *‘Virginius’' with marked suc- | cess. | The play which Mr. O'Neill produces | under its original title of “The Courier of | Lyons” has been acted successfully by Henry Irving for manv seasons under the | name of “The Lyons Mail.” Dubose, the | villan, and Lesurques, thé honest mer- | chant, are the two central characters. A | fatal resembiance exists between Dubose and Lesurques, and the latter is accused of & murder which the former committed. | The fact that Mr. O'Neill plays both char- | acters necessitates his presence on the ! stage during most of the performance. The supporting company includes Florence | Rockwell, Kate ‘tcher, Josephine Foy Marie Floyd, Hallett ompson, William Pascoe, John F. de wez, W. J. Dixon, F. G.

Sarah Bernhardt has written to the New York World pleading for a National American conservatory. This is how Sarah puts her case: *I am making my fourth tourin Amer- ica. The extraordinary progress of this public has astounded me. ““When I came here first, some sixteen years ago, I made my debut as Adrienne. At the end of a few minutes I was discon- | certed ana alarmed by a strange noise. ‘Five minutes later the same noise dis- ;turbed me. It sounded like the dull and | muffled hissing of a multitude. I heard | the sound a third time, and at last I | understood what had been troubling me. | The ladies in the house had all come armed with copies of the play, and as they turned the leaves they made the rustling | sound which seemed so terrible. | *‘On the occasion of my second visit to | this country, some ten years ago, abont | half the women in my audiences began to | dispense with books. “When, for the third time, I appeared | here, at most ten or fifteen of them had brought copies of the play with them; and | this year not one woman—not a single | one—had any need of books. This seems | to me no less remarkable than admirable. ‘I have been taxed with being very par- | tial to America. I see no reason to deny | that I am heartily in sympathy with this | free, vigorous, vibrant people, which is so quick to welcome mew inventions, science, art and genius, irrespective of their origin. “Yes; I adore this country, in which woman reigns and reirns soabsolutely. | 8he comes and goes.

What has been said of him as Siegiried in the drama of that name ap- plies to him equally in this. He seems as if made to order for the part. If the cer- tainty of his intonation and the evenness of his phrasing were only equal to the nat- | ural beum[y; of his voice nothing would re- main to be longed for, as his personal appearance and acting are ideal.

The Rhinedaughters and the choruses were very effective. The scenery, as in all | productions of this work in America, left a great deal to be wished for. Thursday evening, the 19th inst., I had the pleasure of listening to a most uniaue entertainment given at_Carnegie Hall by the Musical Art Society of this city. This organization consists wholly of vocal soloists, chiefly church singers, for the purpose of rendering the works of the earlier church composers and other choral compositions which are rarely neard in the ordinary concerts, owing to their didiculty. So great is the expense involvea (the chorus numbers fifty-two high-priced artists) that but two concerts a year are possible. On this occasion compositions by Pales- trina, Lotti, Felice Anerio and an ““‘Ancient Eastern Hymn,” wounderfully harmonized by Liszt, formed the tirst portion of the programme. The absolute fidelity to the pitch observed by all, even throuzhout the longest numbers unaccompanied without falling a shade of a tone, was astonishing and would be impossible ex- cept with just such a band of vocal vir- tuosi. Still more trying in a way was the last part of the programme when Frank Dam- rosch the director, led them througzh all the harmonic tortuosities of an eight-part song, by Peter Cornelius. Here, too, the encore showed no falling from the original key. The quality of tone throughout was exquisite and the shading ideal.
