performers. Consequently, when tn
Home Dramatic Club approached
Mr.. Careless with q request tina
he form an orchestra for thei
proposed season, and the executive,
committee of the Choral Society EN-
powered him to employ com,
twenty instruments for the Daugh
ter of Jairus, his first steps were tt
appl y for assistance to these tw'
organizations. The answer be re
ceived may be surmised: the Operi
House orchestra were pledged t.
play nowhere except under thei
own conductor, Mr.. Petersen; thu
Theatre orchestra awere pledged tt
play at no dramatic performance III
the Salt Lake Theatre, except I'M
der Professor Thomas. For thu
eantata two of their number
Mr.. Give first violin) anl
Mr.. Castleton contra basso)--
both excellent performers-were OBJ
tanned, but for the cantata only. In
this emergency Mr.. Careless had re-
course to an expedient which he had
often deliberated on, and one which
will recommend itself to all who
are interested In the development
of music-the formation Of an Anna
teur Orchestra, and the gradual de-
velopment by hard work and inces-
SAINT practice of another force OF
capable readers and performers.
To effect this, an invitation was
recently extended to such young
students as were known TO be de.
voting considerable time TO their
different instruments-in most cases
for the love of the pursuit alone
to meet for a conference on the
proposed organization; the re-
suit was the immediate
formation Of a youthful club, under
the name of the Careless Amateur
Orchestra, directed of course by the
gentleman whose name it bears.
The members are az follows
Pianist, Mr.. Cal Darlington; cornet,
Mr.. John Held; flute, Mr.. John
Robinson ; first Violins, Mr.. P. Hem
son and Mr.. Pomeroy; seconds, Mr..
John Toronto and Mr.. Oluf Thorn ass
sen bass, Mr.. Fred Beezley, clario :
net, Mr.. F. King; from.
bone, Mr.. Boyle, and drum,
Mr.. D. BeezlsY. Their first public
appearance will occur In the Home
Dramatic Clubs representations on
Decoration Day: the will again ap~
pear in the Daughter of Jairus, and
will be assisted by Van Prasg, tho
cello soloist, Mr.. Give and Mr.. Gas.
Teton. OF the Theatre orchestra,
Mr.. Goodman, Prof. BeeZ'ey, E.
Beezley, Jr., and several otter pros
fessionals.
DECORATION DAY-THE CANTATA.
The initial performance in the
Home Dramatic Club sea-
son occurs on the coming holiday,
when A Lies Revenge will be PIE
sented both for matinee and in the
evening. The choice of this play
marks the first appearance Of the
Club in what may be called the
fscourt dress Drama" and the cos
tuning of the piece will be partic-
ularly fine. The plot is laid in the
court Of King Louis XIV, and it's
character is of the highly sensa.
tional kind. The cast is hnsde up
of tie usual strength of the COM
pany, which the public hEs been &C.
cust0med to see in past representa-
tons. Mr.. Wells has the part of a
barber, the low comedy Of the piece;
Mr.. INNINGS assumes the lead;bIr.
Spencer is the regulation villain he
has so often depleted, though this
time he dresses him in finer clothes.
Mr.. Young appears in a duel role
a grave character and a hardened
rufian. Miss Edith Clawson has
the part Of the heroine. Birdie
Cummings enscts the second char
acter, and the soubrette this time
falls to Mics Florence Whitney.
Should A Life's Revenge be greeted
with sufficient patronage to indicate
that the season will be q popular
one, a new play called A Wife's
Peril will be Immediately brought
out by the same Company. This
piece, although bearing the same
name IS Mrs. Langtry's new pros
duction, has no connection what
ever with that drama, but il re-
vision Of the play originally PRO
duced at Wsllack's theatre, and
called Msud's Peril.
Following the Home Club comes
the Choral society with their first
public representation, on June Cd.
The strength of the chorus-seven-
ty-fve notes.-the number of the
enthusiastically pieces, and the
announcement of such names as
Mrs. Careless, Mr.. Van Praag, Mr..
Crawford, Mr. Careless, etc., ETC.,
will contribute 10 draw largely
from all classes Tee concert will
be divided into two parts, the first
made up of six N iscellaneous nun
bers, and the second consisting
of the cantats, Daughter of
