MUSIC AND THE DRAMA.
JUDAS MACCABEUS.

JUDAS MACCABEUs.
The grand oratorio of the immortal Handel
which will be brought out in its entirety by
the Haydns for the first time in this city, on
Wednesday evening, is one of the finest speci-
mems of musical writing known among the
many that have obtained undying fame.
Israelitish nation, the affairs of the nation, and
its great religious wars which rivet attention.
So many and varied emotions are here called
forth that it were hard to say whether mourn
ing for the i,lustrious dead. pious trust in God,
martial strains or finally the triumphant re-
turn OF the warrior e See the conquering hero
comes"-taken from the oratorio of Joshua) is
most deeply and truthfully expressed, so mar
vellously are the different moods-heroic, ele-
giac, and dyllic-contrasted with and adapted
to each other.
Mr. Tewksbury will be unable to fill the
tenor role on this occasion, and it will be as
sumed by Mr.. A. E. Pennell.
MRS. SCOTT sIDDoNs.
The sale of seats for Mrs. Scott Siddons' per-
formances, to be given at Portland Theatre on
Friday and Saturday next, will begin at the
box office this morning. The st. Louis Re-
publican says that "Mrs. Scott Siddons as Rosa
lind, in the beautiful and romantic Shakes
pearian comedy GAS You Like it'quite charm
ed the large audience. For the character of
Rosalini, Mrs. Scott Siddons seems to be Pc
culiarly adapted. Her portrayal of the bright
and joyous heroine, with her sunshiny words,
her wilful waywardness and beautifully vary
ing traits of character, never successfully pro-
duced by the pen of any other save the master
dramatist, is enhancing and fascinating. The
very improbability of the story is its chiefest
charm. 1t is the essence of romance. The
character is all archness, sweetness and purity
The forwardness of her love but shows her Ca
pacity for loving. The play, as whole, was
greatly enjoyed by the audience. Mrs. Siddons
was recalled again and again by rounds of
hearty applause"

Fast Day Charles L. Davis will personate

Gosh Whitcomb" and an occasion will be af-
forded for good hearty laugh

Chicago Anti-Renters.

Chicago, S.-A largely sttended anti
rent meeting WAS held on tie west side
tonight. The attendance was mainly
composed of members of workingmen's
unions. Resolutions were passed de-
nouncing the recent marked advance in
rents which already had AFFORDED the
principal portion Of the fruit of the
Workingman's industry, and stating that
the wotkingmen having through q
dreary winter paid out their hard earned
wages for fuel, at three times its nominal
value, for rotten eggs, tough chickens,
diseased meat, tallow butter, sanded
sugar, adullerated and poisonous bread,
tea, coffee, etc, were unable to pay in
crossed rent for places to live in, which
were unfit for the lower animals. The
resolutions call the attention ofrefOrmers
and philsnthropists TO the fact that the
great misses of working people in this
city are already crowded together in
small frame houses or shanties aud in
dilspidated rooms in rotten tenements
and pledge active agitation until rents
are made reasonable

Electric Light In London.

London, The only notable event Of
the week in London has been the illumi-
nation Of the business part Of the city
with electric light. Ga Thursday night
the Brush company had lhirty-two
lightI, replacing 62 gas lamps. clemens
had six great lights hoisted on tall poles
and twenty ght small lights. The
Streets seemed like day.. One could easily
read newspapers 10 any part Of them.
The outlines Of the great public buildings
about the Bank OF L glahd were brought
oct with strong effect. The only draw
back to the experiment was that this part
of The city is deserted at night. Com
paratisely few p opie saw the expert
ment, unless they went expressly for that
purpose.
