Good Musical Service.

1t is admitted by connoisseurs of music
that the matter Of Cassasa's programmes
submitted to the public at the late Mechan-
les Fair. and the manner In which The dill
ferent numbers were rendered by the band
under his leadership. are worthy of the
most positive praise. During the six weeks
the exhibition lasted the music was not the
least attractive feature and has been the
means of bringing Cassasa into deserved
notice. One feature of the programmes
was their selections from classical compos-
ers whose best works are seldom heard In
San Francisco. We have had from the
band lies Preludes" Of List; "De
Walkure" Of Wagner. besides gems
chielli, Beethoven, Verdi, Meyerbeer,
Mozart, Cherubini and many others
whose names are high up on the roll of
fame. Cassasa's band was remarkably
strong in its tone, t0lor, expression, ensem-
bic and attack, and can also be praised for
tile thorough manner In which IL dealtwith
classical compositions, particularly In hdel-
ity TO the score. We sometimes hear rem
behring's Of classical compositions where the
writing Of tie composer is not gwen as set
down. but, on the contrary, is so mauled
and emasculated by the ignorance, caprice,
or carelessness of the supposed executanis
as TO bear only faint resemblance to the
proper score. Ii would be well for our local
bands to follow the example Cassasa and
his instrumentists have set. as thereby the
quality Of our band music would be much
improved and a greater credit gained for it.
We understand Csssasa proposes to form
and maintain select band I'D til city SINH
lar to Eastern organizations and which in
point Of musical skill will render their visits
10 San Francisco unnecessary, home talent
being 50 much superior.

A Chicago dramatic paper does not take
much stock in the stories of innumerable
theaters that are going to be built this year
in Chicago. Il says:
Almost every week we hear Of new
theater 10 be ready for the fair. and with
each week comes a new manager and larger
capital. glance over the list shows the
following, who are reported as about to build
new theaters: Jacob Lift, III. X. Jacobs.
John HamliB, }. Ii. Havlin, }. Ii. Haverly,
Thomas O. Seabrooke, Rich and Harris ana
Henry L. Abbey. It's pretty safe to say
not one of these men will build. Jacob Lift
is too shrewd. and bis experience with the
Standard hasconvinced him that Chicago has
all the theaters it needs, and il any man can
run theater successfully " hen 1t is wanted
il is Jacob Lit. IL. L. Jacobs was to have
the Imperial, but il has fizzled out The
theater on the west side for Manager Ham,
lin Is in the dim distance, while John Havlin
has all he wants IN Havlln's Theaier, which
is a profitable house. Mr.. Abbey was never
in the field seriously. neither was SeabrOoke
with his theater of bottle shape. All this
talk forms good advertising. and that is ell
that is really intended by the men whose
names have been mentioned"

time she scarcely knew q word of English,

firming the verdict then given.
