London's Music HaIls.

Correspondence Of the Philadelphia Times.
Music halls are q great institution here.
They afford free and easy way Of spending an
evening. A man can sit in the stalls and smoke
and drink and many good folks 90. 1t is in the
balcony, however, that the real complexion of
the music hall is found. One can look up from
the respectability of the stalls at the butterflies
OF the by-streets Of London. They come night
after night, the same women to the same halls,
and meet the gilded youth-the more or less
gilded. They are prettily dressed, quiet man.
nered, sometimes possessing rare personal
charms. and come alone or in twos or threes.
They rarely speak to any one unless they know
them, and are great stickiers for the Formally
Of an introduction. This is, OF course, at the
better class Of music halls Each hall has its
regular feminine patrons. who don't go to the
other halls and look on the one that they
frequent as their own special pasture.
In the boxes one can see another set belong
ing to the half world-the women who have

quette with eyes and fan, quite like their more
fortunate sisters. In the high-priced boxes at
the opera indeed, in the ensemble there ia
nothing to betray to an unsophisticated observer
their true position, or perhaps had better say
lack of position. There Is q deal Of drinking. q
deal of visiting from box to box, just as at the
opera, for the English are peculiarly frank
about that other side Of life that IL usually
termed shady. Among the girls in the boxes
and the girls In the balcony there are now a few
Amer,cans, and, oddly enough, il is the Ameri-
