Ofenbachs new opera bouffe, La File du
lam our Major, was performed last night at
Ford'S Opera House by Mr.. Grau'S new French
opera company, and both the piece and the
company made fine impression. The new
opera VIII never prove the popular hit Of the
Grand Duchess, but the music throughout is Of
higher order than in that most successful of
Ofenbachis compositions, and the construction
OF the piece, While wanting In the grotesQue
burlesque OF the Grand Duchess, presents
characters OF much more f1nish-as for Instance,
that of the Due Della Volta, admirably delin-
Gated by NJ. Vilano, and the title role, the bluff
old drum major, performed with the requisite
dash and vigor by NJ Vlnchon. The company
zatlon OF last year. though the latter embraced
such artists as Marie, Capoul, Duplan and the
b seautl H. AIgeIe. The new prima, Mary
Geclie Gregorie, who has already appeared in
Washington, is acceptable in both these re-
quiIt ments The female chorus, as usual in
French opera in the United States. seems to
have been selected for ugliness to act as foils
for the leading women. The orchestra last
night was good. and the opera was put upon
the stage very handsomely. The closing scene,
with the entry OF the victorious French troops
was particularly effective. The new opera viii
undouDtedly grow In favor nightly, and the
popular airs In it will soon be whistled upon
Tie streets and thrummed upon the piano.
Hermann AT THE NATIONAL--Since the YER
satile Heller departed this life, the Mephisto-
philean Hermann is without rival in the
magic art. Many of his feats last night were
new and startling. His cabinet and glass box
mystery. without any putting out OF lights, is
more wonderful than the so-called Spiritual
manifestations, and decidedly more amusing.
Many OF bis minor tricks are as beautiful as
they are wonderful-such as those of the three
white pigeons, the white rabbits, etc. The
grotesque dancing OF the Onofris brothers and
the LorellOs appropriately supplements the dia-
blerie OF Hermann, and is pleasant tnterlude
The same may be said Of Val Vose, the ven
triloquist, and his funny people. Altogether,
the entertainment Is drawing one. Change OF
program Thursday.
