Tho sninstrel's Burnt Cork.


The popular impression about the APP

performers is that it is rubbed ON the
face and hands of the performer from
cork whose end is charred in o conven-
lent gas-jet. This is incorrect. To
SUI ply the burnt cork used by minstrel

The most unfortunate attempt at re-
producing another's wit was made by
an snglishman who didn't understand
the pun, but judged from the applause
with which it was greeted that it must
ne excellent. During a dinner at which
lie was guest waiter let boiled
tongue slip off the plate on which he
was bearing it, and it fell on the table.
The host at once apologized for the
mishap as lapsus Iingum (slip Of the
tongue). The joke was the best thing
at the dinner, and our friend concluded
to bring it up at his own table. He &C
cordingly invited his company, and in
structed his servant to let fall roast
of beef as he was bringing it to the ia
BILE When the accident" occurred he
exclaimed, THAT'S = lapsus lingun.'
Nobody laughed, and he said again, II
say that's lapsus lingue," still no
one laughed A screw was loose some
where, SO he told about the tongue
falling, aud they did laugh.

The Rollers Click.

The new roller skating rink, corner of
Jackson and Tenth streets, had grand open
ing last evening, and, if the brilliance and
magnitude of the attendance, and the thor
oughly enjoyable nature of the entertain
ment, both to spectators and participants in
the health giving exercise, are any indications
of what the future will be, the new skating
rink must be decided success. The
rink is an immense one, well yenti-
lated and possesses a splendid floor of
hard wood. Last night the audience was i'm
mense; the skaters were numerous-too nu-
merOus even for such an extensive area of
floor; the music was excellent, being sup
piled by the Great Western band, and the
exhibition skating of Frank L. Croker was
grand treat and thoroughly appreciated in
all its ''poetry of notion" as the enthusiastic
applause Of the audience testified. There
were during the evening a few ''spills,' but
these were not so numerous as might have
been expected from the, at times, crowded
floor and the inexperience of some students
of the art. The opening was in every way
success and promises well for the future of
the enterprise.

ADJUSTMENTS.
The Boston Ideals al the Grand

The Boston Ideals gave ezra Diavolo,n at
Ghe Grand last night, to a 81, 300 audience.
The statement may seem a trile abrupt, but
after all it is about the best indication of the
esteem in which this company is held by the
musical prtrons of st. Paul that could be
given.
The audience was large and representative,
in the sense that it embraced a large per
centage of the best elements of culture and
fashion in ST. Paul. 1t may be said i'm
prints, that the rendition of the opera was
an artistic success, and it was even more
than when first given by the Ideals in this
city.
What was said of the rendition at that time
is applicable at present only in this sense,
that the performance is marked by a greater
finish both unsteady and from a dramatic
standpoint The opera is one of Aubey's
best compositions, the score is sprightly, the
action and plot romantic, and much depends
on the acting, the possibilities in this respect
being great. Both the plot and music are so
familiar to theater habitues that a descrip-
ton at this time is unnecessary.
The cast last night included all the old favor
ties, and was as follows:
Fra DIavolo. .....................Mr Mr.. Tom Karl
Under the name of Marquis of San Marco
Lord Rocburg. Mr.. II. c. Barnabee
Uord Allcash), an English traveller.
Lady Pamela. .......... Miss Geraldine Ulmar
CMady Allcash), his wife.
Lorenzo. ......!...............M Mr.. Morsell
Chief of the Carbineers.
Matteo the innkeeper. 49,. Mr.. A. j. Hubbard
Zerlina, his daughter. $1,000. Miss Marie Stone
Giacomo ..............M Mr.. Geo. rockingham
Beppo.. .................M NJ. w. Whitney
Companions of Fra Diavolo.
Owing to the illness of Mr. Morsell yester-
day, Mr.. Montgomery was billed for the role
of Lorenzo, but the former recovered suffi-
GENTLY to appear last night.
In the presentation the palm must be
awarded to rockingham and Whitney. Miss
Shine and Mr.. Karl: not that the cast was
not acceptable throughout, but the other
roles do not afford the same scope for either
singing or acting. The part of Zerlina was
given by Miss Stone with archness and
abandon, the chamber scene perhaps being a
trile broad in its suggestiveness. Her sing
ing has improved and she was in
splendid voice, the tones being
clear, strong limpid and sweet.
Mr.. Karl made the ideal bandit; he sang
fairly his makeup was good, and his acting
excellent. The life of the opera was in the
roles of Whitney and rockingham, they sang
just as finely rs ever and it would be impos-
sible to conceive more picturesque or ap-
propriate costumes. Besides their acting
was good and the parody in the third act,
~iren in 1alsctto received triple encore.
