THE FIRST production of The Mikado
in this country was at a Chicago dime
museum last week. Nobody attempted
any injunction though its performance
was AN infringement of someone's
tights; but whether it is Gilbert Il Sui
ivan rights. or Mr.. John Dufts rights
or Mr. Doyle Carte's rights, or Mr.
John Stetson's rights that are infringed
seems still to be an open question.
The MADISON Square Theatre, hereto
lore Ioted for the excellence of its at
fractions, is suffering in reputation by
engaging such Jonahs as John I. Ray
monu. The Dramatic Times, of the 11th
says: ''Some little time ago, a well
known manager, in the course of a jocu-
lar cOATersation, suggested the idea of
getting the worst play procurable and
having it performed by company OF
the worst actors. He insisted that the
public would so and see it on account
of its badness. If Mr.. Palmer had the
same IDEA in his head when he engaged
the CO .npany now playing in For Con-
gress ut the Madison Square, he has
been eminently successful. A more
brilliant aggregation of chumps has
never been gathered together on New
York stage"
JOIN T. RAYMOND, John A. McCaull
and Theodore Moss were standing in
front of Wallack's Theatre the other
evening discussing General Grants ply
steal condition. As usual, Mr.. Ray
mond monopolized the conversation,
and after eulogizing the sick warrior
and extolling the fortitude displayed by
the Old hero in his recent removal to
Mount McGregor, Mr.. Raymond ex-
claimed: "Well, l can say what no
other man can; | am the actor that
General Grant went last to see. Just
before he was taken Ill he came over to
Brooklyn to see me play in For Con-
gress,'" and Mr.. Raymond thrust one
hand into his bosom and assumed a
Colonel Sellers" attitude. His compa-
Mons were quiet for a moment. and
then Mr.. Moss said very quietly: "Per-
haps that was what made him so sick"
Theodore" replied Raymond, growing
very red in the face. you are dead
wrong, but II treat r'-DrGmGtic News.
4 FEW WEEKS ago we said that Ken
nrly was the greatest feature of the
Private Secretary Co. and some of our
readers found fault with us for so point
euiy ignoring the splendid talents of
N;r. Gillette" Look upon this picture
aad then on that, both taken by the
san Francisco Chronicles dramatic crit
IL. The hits o. the piece are really
kennedy and Miss Addison. Kennedy
rs much improved, and as he has
,,layed Cattermole for long time, we
cLn see more clearly his value IS en-
actor. There is much in the imperson-
alton that is beyond the usual clever.
The little details Of business, gesture
and expression are admirably studied
and most effectively brought out. AL
together, the performance is an excep-
tionalIy bright one"
We have already criticised Mr.. Gil
lette. Further acquaintance does not
alter our opinion that he is far too me
and hard 20 BRING out the full
value of the part Of Spaulding. His
face never gives ont any expression OF
suffering or feeling He is there to be
knocked about. aud heis knocked about,
but limo part does he appear to be gen
orally an actor.
