THE PROSPECTS for the last two weeks
# Rooth's engagement are so favorable
to an overwhelmingly large business
that orders have been given looking to
the suppression of all free passes. Even
re quests from the trsgedian himself for

seats for the press are only to be given
on those nights when play new to this
city is presented. Last weeks receipts

off 81 600 from those of the week pre-
yious, which amounted to between

FRANK McCLosKEY, counsel to the po-
lice department, handed in an opinion
last week with reference to the duty of
the police in the matter of sacred con-
certs. The question was brought up by
the fact that recently sacred concerts
for the benefit of Parnell fund were
stopped in Williamsburg: IF under
the name of sacred concert" says Mr..
McCloskey, there should be sung or
played selections from operas or the
like. this would be unlawful; but as long
as the music, whether vocal or Instru
mental, is in its essence of religious or
sacred character. the concert should not
be prohibited" He holds that costumes
and scenery render a sacred concert IL
legal. 1.-The observance of the Christ; an
Sabbath is not part of our law" he
says in conclusion. The opinion is ap-
proved by Corporation Counsel jerks.
