ment IS made by her companion, Td6etd, who
also longs for a title. In the second act
Mtley HdsSdn finds that the queen of the
harem is the identical Tartar dame from whom
he fled years before. Owing to her influence
the ladies of the harem have become strong
minded, and the Sultan is expected to take care
OF the children and perform other domestic
tasks. Mtiley applies to the court physician
for potion to render him immortal, that he
may outlive his wives and his other troubles.
The doctor gives him potion, telling him it
will make him sleep for twenty-five years.
Mtley awakens in his pavilion in the rose gar
den of the palace. The doctor has merely
given him sleeping draught, but, fearful Of
royal vengeance, he and the other courtiers
use their utmost efforts to delude the Sultan
into thinking that he has been asleep for
twenty-five years; that he is immortal. To
aid in this deception several of the courtiers
disguise as venerable old men. Eventually,
the disputes between Cdrddmon aud M,tlcy,
as to the ownership of the throne, the harem,
and Fdrina, are settled by the temperance
of the actual Sultan, who has tired of his
life as fisherman and come back to take the
reins of government. Fdrind is given to
Cdrddmon, and Mtiley is offered the position
of admiral of the royal navy. He promptly
accepts this, as it causes him to be at sea the
year round, and the navy laws forbid his TAX
ing his Tartar wife with him.

protect his own interests, is a man of flesh
and blood with heart that beats quickly for
the sufferings and wrongs of others. 1t is
type of character which, familiar as it is In
everyday life, has not heretofore been made
use of by the dramatist Mr.. Fehrmann can
justly claim the credit of having introduced
new figure to the stage. for he descends to
neither burlesque nor carcature in his per-
formance. He is an accomplished artist, and
has made reputation in this country after a
distinguished career in Europe. He was for
long time comedian at the leading theatres of
Germany, and held a similar position with tie
German-speaking theatres in this country for
a long time after his arrival in America. He
gained his reputation in this country, however,
as an English speaking actor, and for nine
years when sThe Phenix' was in its prime,
was principal comedian in Milton Nobles'
Company. In "Uncle Isaac" he found yehi-
Gle for his talents, which placed him at once
among the greatest of character delineators
and gained in time a lasting reputation. The
play was written for him by Mr.. Fred Maeder.
1t has plot of intense interest, and abounds
in good, hearty humor. Incidentally, singing,
dancing, and musical selections will be given
by people who are artists in all that they at
tempt. Mr.. Fehrmann will introduce violin
solo which has received the highest praise
from competent sources. He is skiful per
former, and a composer and singer of merit,
as we'll.

At Albaugh's Grand Opera House last week
there was repertory of Italian grand opera
that will always appeal to the musical taste
of Washington, and especially when given as
in this case by company headed by so
thorough an attiste as Minnie Hauk The
programme OF the week comprised the operas
'Carmen," al Trovatore, +" "Cavalleria Rusti-
cana" "Lohengrin," and "Faust,n and
showedthe full strength of the company under
the most favorably circumstances. The chief
interest, of course,wa centered in Miss Hauk
herself, who still sings with that aplomb that
only experienced and first-cass artists can
attain. Her voice is one of peculiar richness
and possesses a round and vevety quality
which might be expressively described as
''peachy." 1t is the voice OF an artistic in
every sense of the word, and by reason of the
consummate skill with which it is handled
scarcely shows the effects of its long and try
ing usage. Madame Basta-Tavary, another
prtma donna Of the company, was seen for
the first time here and created most favor
able impression. She has a soprano voice of
good range aud considerable sweetness.
Madame Louise Natali is good singer with
charming voice but does not of course rank
with Hauk or Tavary. Madame Tremelli the
contralto, might have scored o more marked
success through her voice and singing had it
The leading tenor of the compsnyis M. Mon
tariol who, while not quite a Hedmont, was
received with much favor. NJ. Montariol's
voice is good one but somewhat blatant. He
possesses in greater or less degree what the
Italians would designate poce blanca, and
this, in conjunction with some radical faults
ofacting, mars to certain extent an other
wise excellent performance. In his acting he
exaggerates both his passion and passiveness.
1t was left for Del Pueute of the men of the
company to arouse the enthusiasm of his
auditors. This noble singer still holds the
hearts he has won as much by the intelligence,
grace, and power of his past as of his present
work. His voice naturally shows a little age
both at its top and bottom but the middle is
still beautiful and powerful and holds the
same charm as of old. The other members of
the company are Of average ability The
chorus was disappointing. 1t was large in
numbers but weak and characterless in tone,
and failed to fully interpret the spirit of the
operas presented The orchastra under the
direction Of Conductor Behrens was excellent

Simple Printing Process.


Some beautiful reproductions of leaves,
ferns, etc., have been recently made by a
simple printing process which involves the
use of neither camera nor plates. A printing
frame of suitable size is provided with piece
OF plain glass in place Of the negative ordi-
narily required. The frame having been
placed face down, and the back taken out and
glass placed in position, the green leaves
ferns, etc. (Which may be of any variety If
not too opaque), are arranged tastefulIy on the
glass, care being taken that they do not over
lap each other. A sheet of silyered or ferro-
prussiate paper is now LAID carefully over the
leaves, and, the back having been replaced
the frame is carried into the sunlight and
printed-in the case of ferro- -prussiate paper
from 10 to 20 minutes; in the case of silyered
paper from one-half to two-thirds that time.
The results when the prints have been washed
or toned and fixed are surprising, the delicate
tracings of the fbres of the leaf, together with
It's general form, being faithfully reproduced
AS the printing frame cannot well be opened
during printing without danger OF the leaves
sliding about, the duration of the printing
must be determined by timing. There Is
hardly choice between the "blue" and sill
vered paper for this kind of work, both giving
good results. A sheet of plain glass clamped
down on board on which has been placed
i've or ten sheets OF paper as a cushion will
answer very well In place of printing frame.
Those who prepare their own ferro-prussiate
paper should keep the solutions of red prus-
slate OF potash and ammonia citrate Of iron
In separate bottles and combine in small
quantity sufficient to coat the paper required
for the day from time to time. The results
are much better than when the solutions are
mixed and kept for any length OF time and
the paper prints much quicker.
