A NUISANCE
That Irrifates and Inc0nveniences the
People of South Memphis.

The dangerous condition of Main street,
Just north of the intersection of Gayoso,
caused by the caving of the embankment
over the broken culvert, has compelled SUI
perintendent Semmes TO take off The street
car recently put on between the Mississippi
and Tennessee depot and the southern ter
minus of Main street. This is great incon-
venience 10 the citizens of that section of
South Memphis, especially to the school
children, who are forced to trudge through
the mud and slush on their way TO and from
school. Superintendent Semmes assures
US that he will, as soon as possible,
place temporary structure under his
tracks there and resume running the
car. We learn also that work on the stone
culvert will be begun within the next few
days. There is apparently no comnendable
enterprise or regard for the public conven-
fence in the way work on the lower end Of
htri- A;reet las been carried on. The street
has been torn up and rendered almost impas-
sable, now nearly three months, and COM
plants made about it have been treated with
silent, almost contemptuous, disregard. But
nobody is to blame" Everybody con-
nected with the work seems to be waiting on
somebody else, so that a search for needle
in haystack would be about as fruitful OF
results as an attempt to fasten this response
bility on any individual.

SCHOOL VISITORS ELECTION.
Retirement of Several Members OF the
Old Board.

An election for school visitors was held in
the city yesterday, which was fine COM
ment on the people of Memphis. So i'm
portant a matter as the election OF school
visitors excited barely a ripple Of Interest,
aud only total Of 1886 votes were cast.

singer, who cast her pearls before swine.
Perhaps had one OF our amateurs sung the
song, two or three eacorss would have been
insisted on by the delrded audience. Mr..
George Appleby sang the part OF Lionel in
a way that pleased the audience and secured
him frequent applause He has good but
unreliable tenor voice. At times it is swee.
and sympathetic, and again uncouth and
inappropriate to the theme. This deficiency
is probably due to an imperfect and insufh-
cient training. Mr.. Henry C. Peakes could
hardly have been other than an excellent
"Plunket." With a capital voice, fine histri-
onic ability, and the talent OF a hrst-class
comedian, Mr.. Peakes played the part de-
lighifully. Mr.. Arthur w. Tams was at
home in his old part OF ''Sir Tristan" Mis-
Emma Elsner was piquant and pretty
"Nancy," but did not infuse any marked in
diEiduaiity into the part. Taken In the sg-
gregaie, the opera was well rendered.
Chimes OF Normandy.
Tonight the Hess Opera Company will
give the well-kDown and ever popular Chimes
Of Normandy. Mr.. Henry c. Peakes will as
sumo the part of "Gaspsrd," Miss Rose
Leighton "Germaine," Mr.. Mark Smith
marquis" Mr.. Alfred WilkIe "Robin
Moore" and Miss ST. Quinteu "Mignonette."
The appearance of this lady will in all like
lihood be an event TO be remembered. Sne

in London at the Globe Theater. She has
earned the highest praise from the press in
the Chimes, Nine. Fdpart. La FilIe du 1antbour
Major, 1fefStofele II, Jeanne, Jeannette ard
Jeanneton, BiLtee Taylor and Lord Bdte1nan.
Concerning her the New York Times says:
THE Chimes of Normandy was presented again
last night with the same cast that has before
been commended in the Times, with the ex-
ception of the role of 'Mignonette,' which
was assumed by Miss st. Quinten. The
exception, however, proved to be important.
Miss st. Quinten has come TO New York
without heralding, and although she is cred
tied with short but successful career
in London, her name was entirely
unknown in this city. She had to sing a
different version OF an opera IN which she
had appeared more than 200 times,
but before the final fall of the curtain the
young lady gained confidence, as che found
her Efforts were Appreciated; and her deou
may be pronounced great sucoss5- Perhaps
| the best description OF Miss st. Quinten, il
| we may Judge from single performance, is
that she is a remarkably graceful and pleas
| ing brunette. She has that eleverness that
| enables her 10 make most effect of light dra
matte sensations. Her prese ace is always
| welcome, and her action is free from any
faint of exaggeration or vulgarity; and it il
simply Justice to sf ate that ahe was recog
| nized as valuable addition 10 the New
| York stage"
