strels TO bo Present There Tonight
| The performance at Mozart Academy last
evening was an able presentation of the opera
| Bohemian Girl" and was in many particu-
! lars an Improvement on the preceding rendi-
tion of Monday evening A representative
audience was present and Miss Anngndsle and
Messrs. Michalena and Hamilton sang
smoother and with more confidence than at
the Monday evenings performance. Miss
Annandale was exceedingly captivating aud
pleasing in her Interpretation Of Airline, and
Signor Michalena WAS enthusiastically ap-
plauded for his excellent vocal work.
The same is true of Mr.. Hamilton. whose
rendition Of The Heart Bowed Down" is a
lyric gem. and Madam Corain even improved
as the Gypsy Queen.
The costumes used in this opera are beauti-
full. even the chorus wearing garments of ex-
cellent texture and beauty. Miss Annandale's
gowns are splendidly designed affairs. and in
the third act wears beautiful decOllete cos
tune. The orchestra was augmented last
evening. and as whole the production was
in every way creditable.

the following to say of the company:
George Wilson and Thomas Donnelly upon

ter with their bright jokes. which were actu-
ally new. Dan Quinlan resplendant in
his gorgeous costume won the admira-
ton Of all by, his easy. graceful
favorites were seen in this part. The Fulton
brothers in their special delivery act elected
rounds of applause and continuous laughter.
In fact every number of the programme was
literally applauded and encores demanded of
all. The part closed by a laughable farce
entitled "Ihe Men Of Nerye.5 which con-
vulsed the audience.
Every feature of the entertainment was
frst-class and merriIuent prevailed through
ont. The horizontal bar act Of Napier and
MarzellO was among the best OF the specalties
The entertainment closed with most laugh
able and enjoyable round Of fun. 1t was ar

"La Mage" has been received with great
favor by the Parisians, and NJ. Massenet is
the lion of the French musical world. He
is delightfully."- quaint character-an ideal
subject for the lionizers, because his per-
sonality is as interesting as his work. On
the night of ia Mage's" first production
the enthusiasm of brilliant audience
found vent in calls for the author. Cries
of "Massenetl Massenetp were heard from
all parts of the great auditorium. But
they were not ut first replied to- Finally,
when the clImOr became so great that the
singers could not go on with their parts,
the announcement was made from the
stage, IN. Massenet Is in Armentieres." ="
And so he was. While the wonderful
child of his brain-the grandest achieve
ment of his life-was being for the first
time exhibited to the public in Paris, he
was sitting in the bare chamber of a coun-
try inn, two hundred miles away, listening
to the dripping of the rain, alone and silent.
NJ Massenet is man of indomitable
will as we'll as talent, despite the diffidence
which this incident seems to indicate. His
success has been snatched from the midst
of many close clustering difficulties and is
therefore all the more worthy of being re-
corded. Thirty years ago, or thereabouts,
when a mere ghild, he began the struggle
by running away from his home in
Veauche, with the avowed intention of go
ing to Paris and entering the conservatory.
Earental opposition to his ambitious
scheme was strong. He was arrested and
taken home again.
Again and again he disappeared, only to
be caught and ignominiously returned to
his fathers house. But resistance only
made him more eager, and at last he
reached Paris From the first he obtained
recognition. He proved himself veri-
table prodigy, and by his early and con-
siderable successes soon banished parental
displeasure. He is tireless worker. He
rises with the sun and labors ceaselessly
at his desk until noon. So complete is his
mastery Of the art of composition that he
carries his music in his head, never trying
it on the piano until he can do SO with
"fnis" written on the final sheet. He is
| apparently Indifferent to public opinion,
caring only for his work and his family.

Too rar,v for the lworId,s rnir.

A pleasant little story Is told in Golden
Days of a small rosy checked girl who,
picking up her doll and her dolls trunk,
trudged mile or more over frosty roads
until she reached railroad station. There
she boarded the first train for Chicago, and
contentedly settled herself and her doll in
a vacant seat. BY and by the conductor
came along and looked down at the little
woman, who was pointing out flying trees
and other points Of interest to her compan-
ion, the doll. Where are you going, little
oneY" asked the big man with buttons
The round blue eyes were turned upward
in astonishment, and the reply came, un-
hesitatingly "Why, Pm going to the
Worlds fair, of courser" The conductor
coughed. AREN'T you rather earlyH" he
asked. "I don't believe the doors are open
yet" "Dear me-" said the child, in alarm,
"what shall doW perhaps you had bet
ter go home and ask your mother" sug-
gested the conductor. And she did. She
was loaded with pretty things by interested
fellow passengers, and returned to her
mother in safety. We may reasonably ex-
pect that she will be among the first visi-
tors when the Worlds fair opens its doors
to the world

DR.. Adametz, Swiss scholar, has been
taking a census of the inhabitants of a
cheese. The microscopic examination Of
one "gramm" of a fresh Emmenthaler
cheese, such as Is sold under the name Of
Gruyere, contained no fewer than 10000
so called microbes This prodigious en-
campmcnt, after seventy days. proved to
have increased to a tribe Of 100000. An
other sort OF cheese contained within a
single "gramm" board and lodging for
about two million microbes while in a
"gramm" cut from the rind of the same
cheese DR.. Adametz found about five mill
ion Of these inhabitantsl A piece of cheese
upon our tables, of few pounds weight,
may consequently contain more microbe
inhabitants than there are human iuhab-
itants in the whole world.

From what have seen Of the new skirts,
says Miss Mantalini in The Pail Mall Bud
get, l begin to think that the Parisians
have a notion of bringing in the hustle
again. Some very elaborate silk petticoats,
shown to me at a lady dressmaker's, were
stifTened at the back with steels. Fashion
is never rational for long Happily there's
no ground for dreading Ghe introduction
of the crinoline, as the Princess of Wales
has set her face against it. The three. quar-
ter Jacket looks as If it had come to stay.
1t met with cool reception at flrst but
it's going ahead now.
Sleeves are being worn so abnormally
long that only the fingers are visible be-
meath them. The newest sleeve Is cut in a
point over the hand.
Small waists are not cultivated now, but
every woman likes her waist to look as
long as possible. Waists, indeed, are as
much matter of fashion as bonnets or
any other article of dress. They are going
to be worn very long this year Twenty
four inches is the average size Of girls
waist. That means that the waist of heI
stays is twenty-five inches. They should
be left open an inch or two at the back fol
ventilation.

Sacrifice Hitters,

The best sacrifice hitters are those who
can place the bail in right field or that di-
rection, and for this reason Danny Richard
son, Ewing, Ward and Quinn are stars at
making sacrifices that count. They scarce
ly ever fail. Danny Richardson is not the
greatest batter ia the business, but there
are few who are as scientific as he and none
who excels him. He is always willing and
helps daily to ruin his batting record. He
cares absolutely nothing about his record,
and there isn't man playing ball who
feels worse over misplay than he does
This does not seem consistent, but it Is, for
from long personal acquaintance with
him and two seasons on the road with the
giants feel justified in stating positively
that Dams grief over errors, frequently
shown in various ways on the field and
elsewhere, has no connection whatever
with his record. He is hard loser, and
simply gets ''sore" thinking that his mis-
play may lose the game, and when it does
he is not a pleasant companion for several
hours thereafter.

The tea gown has a rival in the house
dress, which has grown out Of it, This
Is trained brighter in color and richer
in material than an ordinary gown for
every day wear, but closer fitting than
the tea gown, and with no suggestion
whatever of dressing gown. Many tea
are loose and neglige; not so the house
dress, which is a day gown, and not a
dinner gown; and, indeed, it is an excuse
for wearing handsome silks and velvets
and wooden brocades, which with the pres
ent severe style of walking gowns have
gone somewhat out of general use,
Happily the plain skirts and long trains
have brought the rich brocades to the fore.

Delightful sun bonnets for children are
made of kilt plated muslin, in cream and
colors, with the sugar loaf crown and high
brim. Very high hats come from Paris.
Baby ribbons are used a great deal, not
only for the caps but as trimmings.
It is predicted that we shall soon rec a
complete change in the make Of boots and
shoes. The pointed forms will no longer
be worn; square or round ends will replace
them.
Corsets for evening wear are made in
silk, satin and even brocade in delicate
colors to match gowns. They are trimmed
with lace, and sometimes ostrich feathers,
and cost as much as good gown.
Trimming laces show small patterns and
nearly straight edges and are put on In
scant gathers.
Silk is much used for panels, vests and
waistcoats with the woolen stuffs now IN
favor.
Imitation jewels and gold trimmings are
mare popular than ever before in millinery.

As we have become more civilized this
