MUSIC AND DRAMA .
Professor Carnenter.

Professor Carpenter gave the third of
Portland Theatre last evening. His
subjects were all quite amenable to his
influence, and the audience laughed
heartily over their many manifestations.
The professor will remain only this
week, and the remaining opportunities
to see him should be grasped by our
citizens.
Chandler's Band Concert.
At Cbandler's concert next Monday
night there will be given festival OF
music and of song such as our people
rarely have an opportunity OF listening
to. This celebrated organization, con-
sisting as it does of the best instrument
tai performers in the city, has always
had and always will have, high stand
ard; and this concert will be revela-
ton to the friends of the band. The In
crease of it's membership to thirty-fve
which before was found to be impossible.
The Overture to William Tell, one of the
most difficult both as to execution and
musical phrasing of the standard over
lures, will be given as one of the num-
bers. In the concert the varied tastes
of the people, will be considered. 1t will
not be all classical or all popular, but
well rounded out with such variety as
can but please all those who attend.
Chambers concert and ball has become
a fixture, and is an event to which our
people look forward to with much pleas
ure.
Paderewski says that he suffers from
insomnia, that he is a martyr to nervous
ness, that he "goes through positive tor
lures in playing" Then why does he
not stop playing? He already has a
fortune. Or is this wall a part OF the
business?
One of the novelties this summer at
the fremont Theatre, Boston, will be
transforming the entire theatre into a
veritable garden of flowers. The scheme
of floral decoration, particularly IN th ,;
auditorium. boxes and proscen1um, Will
be carried out to more pretentlous ex-
tent than has ever been done before.
Speaking of Gilbert & Sullvan's new
opera AS now being sung In Boston,
Philip Halde says: "Sullivan's music is
delightful. 1t is true that he INDUCES
in "reminiscences. He quotes deliberately
from Pinafore;;" aud how heartily was
the quotation welcomed last evening.
Then there are suggestions of Trial by
Jury.n "Patience,n "The Gondoliers.
In word, his style is eminently Sulli-
vanesque. Particularly worthy OF
notice are the humorous and fanciful
dance, the duet of the young. princesses,
the long song of Lady Sophy,ssthe ironical
ditty of the King and the finale OF the
first act. In the second act the music is
not as distinguished. The song for the
that he cannot do himself justice, the
negro minstrel scene, the unaccompanied
chorus, the quartette and the song OF
Lady Sophy are successful, each in its
way. The sarcasm of Gilbert in the
libretto IS heavy. The company is not
very strong.

WASHINGTON, MarcD a6.-An extra

ing 4, 476, 094 persons, who received 81
III, 35e, 9I9 in wages The total value
Of the manufactured product was So
054, 435, 3S7. A comparative summary
of the totals for 1890 and 1880 shows
there was 1927 per cent. increase in
the number of establishments, o. "a
per cent increase in the number of en-
ployes and SO 81 per cent increase in
the value OF the manufactured product
