MUSIC HALL Cri.EBRITIES.—IinnIr at the bill—
" Mr and Mrs Loppits, the charming duettists;
Signor and Signora Polloni, the versatile dramatic operatic
couple ; Joo Barnes, the comic; Gus Davis, the funny little
man ; Mademoiselle Pettitoe, the charming ballerina and
transformation dancer; Paddy Fannagan, the characteristic
Irishman; and stunning Joe Pollock, the pet of Twopenny
Town." The mud-bespattered brougham that you see
waiting at the door about half-past nine belongs to Mr and
Mrs Loppits, the charming duettists. lam surprised that
the proprietor does not mention the brougham in the bills, for
it is almost as charming as Mr and Mrs Loppits themselves,
Ladies and gentlemen proceeding to the body of the hall, two-
pence, pause to gaze upon it with admiration. Gentlemen
whose means are inadequate to the body of the hall, two-
pence, are content to remain outside and pat Mr and Mrs
Loppits' horse, by the kind permission of Mr and Mrs
Loppits' coachman, a grave and dignified person, who ap-
pears to ignore the music hall, and to try to look as if his
connection with Mr and Mrs Loppits did not extend be-
yond the legitimate duty of driving their brougham. I
should mention that Mr and Mrs Loplits' horse is a tall
aristocratic looking animal, with a Roman nose, and is
known to some irreverent grooms in the adjoining mews as
Julius Crow. . . . Mr and Mrs Loppits are charming duet-
tists undoubtedly. They generally enact lovers; Mrs Loppits,
strong-minded, in a low-bodied pink dress; Mr Loppits,
weak minded and bashful, in a fluffy white hat and bed-cur-
tain trousers. Mr Loppits' assumption of bashfulnes.,
putting his forefinger in his mouth and shaking himself
laterally, is much esteemed. The steadiness of the chorus
f
which comes in at the end of the dialogue, as if Mr and
Mrs Loppits had been wound up for it, is else greatly ad-
mired. Mr and Mrs Loppits "oblige again" three times,
and then depart down the body of the hall with two carpet
bags, followed by admiring eyes until they disappear to enter
their brougham. The greatest famvoußrite, and deservedly so,
is " Joe Barnes, the comic."
little white hat with a little black band roundes comes
it,
a nodnwiena
wears
as
a very short tartan jacket. The humour which he expresses
by
cocking his hat on the front of his head, the back of his
head, the side of his head, and by pulling it right over hie
eyes, are as various as the chords of the human
heart. His heart may be said to sweep the whole lyre of
the comic muse. Mr Joe Barnes's favourite songs are
Naughty Jemima Brown, The Barber's Wife, and Fickle
False Matilda. All three point morals, . . . Paddy Fan-
nagan's song of the Irish wake is highly characteristic.
Paddy Fannagan comes on in a bob-tailed frieze coat, and
a hat without a brim or a crown—the national costume of
Ireland—and puts his shillelagh on the floor, saying that it
represents the body of the deceased Patrick 0' Whack . •
The performance of Mademoiselle Pettitoe, the charming
ballerina and transformation dancer, are described in the
bills as " pleasing," which, however, is a weak expression.
'I hey may be said to be highly Sensational. Mademoiselle
Pettitoe comes on first of all as a Scotch fish-girl, dances in
a manner characteristic of Scotia, and runs off to return the
next minute as an Irish colleen, with a jig; then a dusky
daughter of Egypt; and in rapid and breathless succession,
as a female represen'ative of Spain, Italy, Poland, and other
picturesque countries, until she reduces her costume to that
scant condition which leaves nothing beyond the assump-
tion of the God of Love. When Mademoiselle Pettitoe
dances violently in this character, with nothing on to speak
cf but a bow and arrow, there is always a feverish expecta-
tion mingled with some apprehension that she will inconti-
nently appear next, without go!ng off, as the God of Love's
mother.—Dickens' "411 the Year Round."
DEER STALKING ON DEESIDE.—The Hon. George
S. Duff, on Monday last, was out in the Alton-
-0 wer forest, and had a most successful stalk—bringing down
three splendid stags, weighing each from 15 to 16 stones,
clean. On Wednesday, on Cairn Vaich, he brought eh. wn
another stag of 16 stones, possessed of a very elegant head ;
while on Thursday the hon. gentleman was out deer stalk-
ing on Morven, killing one stag of upwards of 16 stones
weight. On Friday and Saturday a similar success attended
him, on the former day bringing down a fine stag in the
woods proximate to Mar Lodge, and on the latter another on
the Glenchristie hills, making a total for the week of seven
grand stags. Mr Amehurst, brother to Viscount Holmes-
dale, was out deer stalking on Wednesday last in Cordovon
forest, bringing down two splendid stags, one of which had
a very handsome royal head, and the other a flashy one of
eight tines. On Monday last Viscount Hultnesdale, MA' ,
had a most successful stalk,when one stag fell to hist ifle. The
head was a very rare specimen of what is termed in technical
phraseology of deer stalking the real caber-feigh, Last week
the noble Earl of Fife had grand sport at Mar Lodge, entirely
eclipsing anything that has been done in Mar forest this
season. On Wednesday his lordship went out deer stalking
and brought down two splendid stage, one of which
weighed the enormous avoirdupois of 18st Sib, clean ; the
tit :r weighed 15st 101 b. On the following day he was even
more successful, killing three noble monarchs of the forest,
two of which possessed gorgeous royal heeds, and weighed
respectively, clean, 18ist, 17st 21b, and l6st Gib. Oc
Friday again the noble earl was out deer stalking, when
two other stags fell successively to him, weighing lbst 101 b,
and 15st 61b respectively. This makes a grand total of
seven stags in three days, two of them royal, and other
two of the heaviest weight shot in Mar forest this season.—

of Bavaria has attached the composer Richard Wagner to
