Chicago Opera House.

When Julia Merlowe played her en-
gagement at the Chicago Opera House
last month she made such phenomenal
hit it was deemed advisable to give her
a return date at the same theater at the
earliest possible moment. Time has
been found for one week commencing
March 18th, and she will again be seen
in her Shakesperian repertory for that
short space. During that time she will
probably appear in at least two new char
acters the Lady Of Lyons" Juliet in
"Romeo and Juliet" being the ones.
That the engagement will bee attended
by considerable interest is WINGED BY the
fact that boxes and seats save already
been subscribed for for the engage
ment.
The sale of seats for the engagement
of Robson & Crane at the Chicago
Opera House will begin on Thursday,
March 18th. The engagement will be-
gin the 18th. The comedians will ap-
pear in their remarkable success, "The
Henrietta and will play an engage
ment of four weeks. This will positive
ly be the last time that Robson &
Crane will play together. Next year
both of them go as individual stars.
"The Henrietta" is the most successful
play that has ever been written by
Bronson Howard and has been recogni-
zed as the greatest comedy put forth by
any American. 1t is plaFed by an ad-
mirable company.

Two Men Business Meet,

A man sat scribbling at a desk in
an office on Griswold street yester-

Wagner's Unfinished Scheme

Christian" formed part of a great
scheme, which Wagner did not live
fully to carry out. This scheme,
which was purely metaphysical in its
essence, was to include three sepa-
rate music dramas-quite unrelated
in plot, action, and legendary origin,
but mystically connected by a meta
physical thread. These dramas are
|ssTristan and Isolde, "Parsifal," and
the problematical ode Sieger,"
which Wagner mentions in his letters
to List. The first two he complet-
ed, as is we'll known; of the last, lit
tie is publicly known, save that he
had sketched out the general plan of
the work, and was ready to carry it
out after the first performances of
"Parsifal," in 1882, when ill.health
and his death in Venice February
IS, 1889 interposed. He had, how
ever, determined upon changing the
title, from "Die Sieger" (the Victors)
to ''Die Busser" (The Penitents). 1t
is also known that the work was an
Oriental subject. These last two
facts, taken together with what is
known of Wagner's philosophical
tendencies, are especially significant,
and throw all-sumcient light upon
the main drift of his unfinished
drama. It is indubitable that, in
this clover-leaf of music-dramas,
Wagner intended to illustrate the
three cardinal points of Schopen-
hauer's philosophy.
The three metaphysical points
Wagner set himself to illustrate
were: first, The Affirmation of the
VIII to Live, the essence OF what, IN
Christian nomenclature, is called
Sin Christian und Isolde"); next,
Compassion with the sufferings of
Observation-Disclosures, according
to Schopenhauer, is the basis of
Ethics ("Parsifal"); last, The Mega
ton of the Will to Live-Renuncia-
ton - which, also, according to
Schopenhauer, is the essence of
Sanctity C'Die Busser'). Thus in
Christian" "Parsifal," and 'Die Bus.
ser" Wagner set himself to illustrate,
separately and in detail, the three
great problems in Schopenhauer's
philosophy, which he had illustrated,
as a whole, if with less completeness
and clearness, in the "Nibelungen."

and Heroines," by William P. APP

Congressional Eloquence.

On the death of a member of
Congress, a time is usually set apart
for the delivery Of eulogies in both
Houses, out of respect to his mem
DRY. The best talent for this kind
of speaking is generally selected for
this duty, and on these occasions
the best specimens of eloquence are
expected. On Tuesday last Senator
Ingalls,, of Kansas, delivered one of
the eulogies on the death of Hon.
J. N. Burnes, member of the House
from Missouri, as follows:
"These are the eliminating hours
of the closing scene in the drama of
Our National life. When this day
week returns, one political party will
relinquish, and another assume the
executive functions of government.
On every hand are visible the prepa-
rations to welcome the coming and
speed the parting guest Events of
great pith and moment are awaiting
on the event of the brief interval.
While pleasure wanders restlessly

and revenge sit in the galleries or

Especial orders;" on which the yeas
and nays are never called, and on
which no negative vote has ever bren
recorded, and reverently pauses in
obedience to the hottest impulses of
human nature, to contemplate the
profoundest mystery of human des-
tiny, the mystery of death. In the
democracy of death all men, at least,
are equal. There is neither rank,
nor station, nor prerogative in the
Republic of the grave. At that fatal
threshold the philosopher ceases to
be wise, and the song of the poet is
silent. At that fatal threshold Dives
relinquishes his millions and Lazarus
his rags. The poor man is as rich
as the richest, and the rich man is
as poor as the pauper. The creditor
loses his usury, and the debtor is &C.

The Beer Must be Returned.

an examination to-day and argu-

ated upon this bank and shoal OF
time,' if no morning is to dawn upon
! the night in which he sleeps, then
sorrow has no consolation, and this
impressive and solemn ceremony
which we observe to-day has no
more significance than the painted
pageant of the stage. If the exist
ence of Burnes was but a troubled
dream, and death oblivion, what
avails it that the Senate should pause
to recount his virtues Neither ven
Grafton nor reverence are due the
dead if they are but dust; no ceno-
taph should be reared to preserve for
posterity the memory of their
achievements if those who come af-
ter them are to be only their sue
cessors in humiliation and extinc-
ton. If in this world only we have
hope and consciousness, duty must
be chimera; our pleasures and our
passions should be the guides OF
conduct, and virtue is indeed a SUI
perstition if life ends at the grave.
This is the conclusion which the
philosophy of negation must accept
at last. Such is the fnality of those
degrading precepts which make the
epitaph the end. If the life of Burnes
is as taper that is burned up, then
we treasure his memory and his ex-
ample in vain. And the latest pray
er of his departing spirit has no more
sanctity to us, who soon or late must
follow him, than the whisper of winds
that stir the leaves of the protesting

novelist In the days when he was doing his most
famous work was Charles Lever. He delighted In
the breezy, outdoor masculine tone of the Irish
mans stories. Yet one other picturesque fact l
late years Charles A. Dana has taken to reading
"Ouids" with great avidity. When some younger
man expressed surprised at the frivolity of the
choice he exclaimed "Ah my dear fellow, wait !
When l was your age was far too serious minded
to read any fiction" Naturally, it is hardly his
view that he goes TO Ouida for instruction or
enlightenment, but to any one who has watched
his perennial delight in the feminine poets of
