ranging from Y 10 40 per cent. higher

been made for tr'fing Violations Of

The American opera Company.

Another large and distinguished audience
assembled at the Grand Opora-lIouse last
evening TO see the American Opera Com
pany in 1.-THE Marriage of Jeanette" and
the ballet of "Sylvia." Masses little opera
was certainly highly enjoyable. Notwith-
standing that the burden Of IL falls upon two
characters, yet Mr.. William IL. Lee as Jcdh
and Mile. EAllemand as JedHnettc en-
dowed these two roles with such grace and
sprightliness, that at no time did the per-
formance drag. The former was
the ideal gay French peasant,
while Mile. LAllomand repeatedly aroused
the enthusiasm Of the audience by her
piquant acting and her exquisite singing.
Miss Kate Oesterle as Pierre gave u delight
full representation OF a merry lad, full OF
pranks and mischief. The ballet Of
"Sylyian introduced some exceedingly
graceful dancing, but nothing as elaborate
as some Of the Kiralfys productions.
While the American public Is pretty
familiar with the dances of the ballet, yet
the ballet itself is almost unknown in this
country, and 1t Is doubtful II the majority
Of theatro.goers can appreciate such per
formancc, however vociferously they may
applaud It. The ballet certainly demon
strated the admirable training to which the
pupils Of the ballet school have been sub.
iect, as well as the remarkable aptncss Of
the pupils In acquiring such precision and
grace Of movement.
The performance Of Waguer's most popu-
lar opera, "The Flying Dutchman," at AL
baugh's Opera-lIouse tonight, will close
| the brief and most enjoyable season of
| American opera. Those who have not seen
the most complete and beautiful perform
ances OF this great organization should Ger
| tainly not miss the last opportunity this
| evening. Mr.. Theodore Thomas will per
sonally conduct the performance, and this
| is at least guarantee that Wdgner's score
will be rendered In mastery fashion by MIR.
Thomas unrivaled orchestra under the
baton OF their inspired leader. The cast is
undeniably strong. Emma Juch who was
| heard with so much delight In "Orpheus
and Eurydlce," will be the Sc,,ta, and re-
| ports place this as one OF her greatest roles,
| beautiful in vocal treatment and an ideal
| Scutd In appearance and dramatic conccp-
| tion of The part. Myron Whitney
| the great basso, will be heard for the first
| time this season as Ddi,uid William Lud-
| wig, magnificent baritone, will make his
| Washington debut as The DUichmau. Helen
| Dudley Campbell, William IL. Fessenden,
| the popular and swect-voiccd tenor, and
| George Appleby will also be In the cast.
| The whole performance Is said to he the
most complete and wonderful in mechan-
| ical effects Of any in the American Opera
Company's repertoire. No less than seven
different kinds of lightning, flashed from
the electric batteries of the company, are
used in the great storm scenes, and the
sailing Of the ships in aud out of the harbor
is said to be marvel of stage management
and ingenuity. Altogether, most notable
| performance may be expected tonight, and
all should be seated In time to hear Mr.
Thomas orchestra in the splendid overture

EDITOR CRITIC: Allow one of many Of
the employees of the Government Printing
Office to enter protest against the numer-
Gus petitions begging for this person or
that cause going the rounds of the en-
ployes every month. To these petitions
most every one is expected to contribute.
A great many cannot afford to subscribe,
and only do so to avoid the stigma of being
called "mean." They are all, of course, for
''worthy Objects" but when or where will
these stop? They 60 on increasing monthly.
Probably In no other bureau of the Govern
ment does any set of employees have
Involuntary" subscription paper thrust be-
fore them as often as these do. Only the
other day it was for flowers for q burial, as
the relatives were too poor to purchase
them. II they were too poor the writer
thinks It would have been better to donate
this money for the solid necessaries Of life.
Many give who have small salaries and
cannot afford 1t, but simply do so on ac-
count of others doing it. Would it not be
proper thing for the Government Printer
to put stop to this kind Of begging? If
am not greatly mistaken this sort of thing
is prohibited In the other departments, and
If It is done at all 1t is certainly done very
quietly. T. PLURIBUS UNUM.
