SARA BERNHARDT.
Her EngaGementat $1,000 Night 10
Play in this Country.

A telegram announces that Mile. Sara
Bernhard had signed contract with Mr.. II.
Z. Abbey, of the Park theatre, in New York,
to play sixty nights in this country at $1,000
night in addition to a share Of the profits,
Undecided in the dispatch, Mr.. Abbey, II
was also said, would immediately engage .
company in Paris to- support her, paying
their salaries and expenses and depositng
$4,000 as security to meet the heavy cost Of
the engagement. 1t is understood that FIVE
dollars seat will be charged everywhere, ex-
cept in the gallery, where the figure will be
one dollar. Those protesting 10 obtain facts
from French sources give the nightly salary
of the lady Mt 5000 francs, or about $500,
without any share of the profits. 1t is said that
Mile. Bernhardts London terms have been
only four hundred dollars night. Man
ayers, in making terms with foreign stars, al
ways calculate on their nightly purchase of
tickets to be sent to persons who will be pro-
fuse in receptions and applause and assist
also in filling the house. Nelson, Lucca,
Gerster, Marimon and the leading tenors are
asserted to have spent from 800 to $50 for
that purpose at each representation, and
minor principles in proportion. Patti and
NicOlini are now together receiving
$1,000 night in London, but their
ticket purchases average fully $500 night,
Mile. Bernhardt is expected to comply with
this custom. She will play but three timesa
week. At the prices to be demanded it is
calculated that her stay in New York will be
confined to twelve nights; in Boston, Phila-
delphia and Chicago, six; in St. Louis, Gin
cinnati and New Orleans, three, and in other
cities two or one, as the probabilities of sue
cess may suggest.

The Best Route

To the North and East is by way of Mem
phis and Louisville, over the Louisville and
Great Southern railroad line. From tie
principal points of Texas to Louisville it is
over one hundred and fifty miles shorter
and many hours quicker than any route via
st. Louis. 1t is also shorter and quicker to
Cincinnati and all points East. 1t is the
only route by which we can take in the great
Mammoth Cave, of Kentucky, and its
through arrangement of Pullman Palace
Sleeping Cars is unsurpassed.

On quitting the Varieties, Dejazet ac-
cepted an engagement at Lyons, and her
Journey thither was marked by little
incident which tended somewhat to en-
liven the tediousness of what was then a
seven days pilgrimage. Among the
passengers in the diligence were two
commits voyageurs, both agreeable and
good-humored and extremely attentive
to Mile. Virginie, sharing the coupe with
her and a remarkably lively parrot, her
inseparable travelling companion. Dur
ing the earlier part Of the route they
endeavored by all sorts of insidious
questions to ascertain her social position,
but in vain; she determined to preserve
her incognito, and would probably have
succeeded, had she not on one occasion
imprudently INDUCED in a moments
chat with the landlady of the inn where
they stopped to dine, leaving the young
men alone with the parrot.
No sooner had she quilted the room
than Poll, unaccustomed to be aban-
doned, gave vent to his discomfort by
shrieking out the whole of his ordinary
vocabulary, consisting of three sci
phrases, which he repeated over and
over again to the intense amusement Ell
his auditors: "Virginie, sais-tu ton role
Virginie, Brunei est un polissonl Au
theatre, Virginie, au theatre" Thus
enlightened, the commits voyageurs i'm
patiently awaited the lady's return, and
while one of them greeted her on hel
temperance with the inquiry, "Mlle
Virginie, sait-elle son rolep the othel
followed up the attack by remarking ir
tone of deep conviction, "Mlle. Vir

/ had no objection to children witness
ing our meeting, though I could have
spared even them; but third party and
he a stranger, | did not want. So l waited
till he should have gone. He was a
young man, entieman beyond doubt,
good-looking, dressed in a gray suit of
Scotch tweed, and bright red necktie.
His was fair young face. He had a
promising moustache, which he tended
with one hand; and he was smoking
meerschaum. Instead of passing as !
expected, when he reached the wall he
paused and looked at the group within.
There was /, peeping over the outer edge
of the summer-house, wondering what
kept him there. There he was leaning
with one hand upon the moss-green wall.
There was she with her daisy-chain,
and children at her knees Just as |
thought he would surely be moving on,
to my surprise he yaulted lightly over
the wall, hiding behind the very sum-
merhouse ON which / sat. Then quick
ly and quietly he passed from <ree to
tree, as though lie wished to do 80 unob-
served, until at last he was behind where
the unsuspecting maiden sat.
While watched with angry ewes, he
darted from his hiding-pIace, ran to her
from behind, drew her head back to him,
and kissed her twice or thrice upon the
lips. The blood boiled within my veins.
l did not doubt that this was a bastard
outrage, and that my darling needed
defender. Ina minute, vengeance would
have been done, and he or would have
lain low. But her answer showed / was
mistaken. "Charlie!" cried she, with
that sweet smile I knew SO we'll; ''how
can you kiss me before the childrenT"
"Why notT' said he. "Don't I kiss
them before youT And to prove his
words, he snatched up little girl and
kissed her again and again, she laughing
at the fun. Then he sat down by her
sioe, and putting his arms about her,
drew her to him. The daisy-chain
dropped to her lap, and she looked at
him as though he were all the world to
her. 'Darling!" said he, not loudly, but
loud enough for me to hear. II have
spoken to my mother about you and me
to-day; and she thinks l am very foolish !;
but since / always have been, and always
will be 50, she thinks / may as we'll take
you to be my little wife-though you
will be very foolish for letting me-"
Her answer was to lay her head upon
his shoulder and fash her blue eyes
with still softer blue upon his face.
"Charliep said she, "are you sure you
love meP ...o. ,
"Love your he returned, and he
meant it-''my darling, more than can

"And you are sure" she continued,

with kisses. "Who in all the world

MUSIC IN THE SAVAGE BREAST.

Mr.. Theodore Thomas has certainly
done deal for Cincinnati. 1t surpasses
credence, it makes the imagination sick,
it throws the soul into a cold sweat, to
see what he has done for that city.
Where but few years ago there was
bowling waste, sloping down over a
malarial beach to a rolling river, whereon
played the canoes Of the savage, on
whose bosom rang the whoop Of dusky
Indians; we now see host
of houses, studded in SER
ried rows about a college of harmony, a
training school where are learned the
fag-ends Of the music that, it is alleged,
will be much in vogue in few more CEN
turies. To the public spirit of vener-
able and worthy citizen is due this
splendid edifce, with all the advantages
that flow from its erection in
a wealthy community. All this is
we'll enough, and we feel like con.
graduating our sister city on her
growth and development in this direc-
tion; but when we stood in that great
temple of song the other day and heard
the jingle-jaDgle of unmelodic mum.
merry that bounced, jumped, tingled and
tumbled from one hundred and fifty
prosecuted musical instruments, we
wondered how it is that any assem-
blage Of people could tolerate such
fummery. None but an ear grown dull
under the piercing squeals of dying pigs
could ever be taught to hear, with af.
fected appreciation even, such strains and
strophes Of brass, reed and catgut disso.
nance as Mr.. Thomas deals out to his
May Festival audiences under the taking
name of "Music of the Future" The
third act Of the "Gotterdammerung," a
rendered last Thursday night, was alto
gether a farce, and as meaningless as
Chocktaw. Imagine the sights and the
sounds Of the occasion!
Three we'll meaning, but greatly i'm

sudorific orchestra are the prime movers
in this horrible phantasmagoria Of tan
gled tunes; this nightmare of melody
this ding-dong of dissonance.
Mr.. Thomas waves his baton, his legs
his arms and his eyelids, and suddenly
the piccolos shrek out series of stacca
tos, accompanied by the grumbling anG
growing Of dozen alto horns; by anc

is still, save a wee whimpering from
