National Theatre Upper Crust"
Upper Crust" the attraction at the National. is
beautiful emotional drama. There VIII be a
matinee at o'clock this afternoon.
Ford's Opera-HouJs-"1h The Royal MILDLY"
A rather light audience witnessed the second
performance Of GeneeS comic OPERA The Royal
MILDLY" last evening The music is Of light and
pleasing character, yet greatly superior TO sun
vans compositions and gains upon the car Mt each
repetition Miss Blanche Chapman as Fanchette
Is very delightful Her singing Is far above tho
average and her acting cannot be improved upon.
IL is not too much 10 say that she susains the en-
tire performance, for Miss Henrietta Sennach,
though OF pleasing appearance and possessed of
a moderately good voice, does not fill the part OF
the queen rs II should be TO be successful and Miss
Marie Bernard, who seems to be very intr actress
ana pnSSnbc singer has but n comparatively I'M
important part as Donna Antonia The gentlemen
OF the company are all good actors, but as singers
are by no means acceptable. The chorus is good.
the costumes very elegant and the orchestra lairly
managed but at times too loud. We think, more.
over, that II would increase the efficiency both Of
the chorus aud the orchestra If Signor Operti
would assume n moro elevated position, 50 Ms to
command better view OF those depending upon
his direction. There will be matinee this after
noon.
Theatre Comique.
The merry burlesquers at the Comique enter
tanned large audience last evening. The bill is d
very strong one.
wIlheInnj Concert
The audience which gathered al Lincoln hall
last evening, though not very large was very Sc
leot, among those present being Secretary schurz,
Baron Won Schloezer, Arisiarchi Bey and several
other members of the diplomatic corps. About
Wilhelmj nothing can be said that Is not already
patent TO the world. He Is probably the greatest
living YiolinSt so far rs mastery execution, ox.
cellonce of technique and purity Of tone are COM
cerned, yet his playing is purely intellectual and
artistic and lacks the warmth and touching ten
derness with which Remenyi charms his hearers.
The best aud most appreciated number was tho
Love Sercnade," composed for Wilholni by
Vogrch and played superby. Max Vogrich is o
pianist such as is rarely heard. There is in his
playing, apart from all artistic perfection deli
cacy of touch which ehave never seen surpassed
Signora Salvott who possesses fair mezzo soprano
voice, sang her numbers very accept0by and all
the artists were literally applauded and yielded
gracefully to pressing demands for cncores.
