than is found in "Tzigane'' he is generally
consistent in his attempt to preserve the
weird Russian character of his themes.
although some Of the most melodic num-
hers SAVIOR of a far different nationality
He has given Miss Russell all the work she
wants to do. and to her are assigned the
best efforts in every act.
Her first solo Is not so satisfying as IL
should be, and the work of the star fell
coldly upon the audience, for the author
seemed to be striving for something whicn
he did not get: but the duet with Mr.. Hon,
the septet and chorus in the finale to the
first act, the ensemble at the close of the
sec ond act, the basic theme being the Rus
sian national hymn: the waltz song. For
Love VIII Come and Love Wing with
quartet accompaniment in the same act,
the duet with Mr. Ling in the last act, ana
the last chorus reused the audience out OF
its apparent Indifference and many of these
numbers had to be repeated.
Messrs. Abbey, Schoeffel and Grau have
urrounded Miss Russell with a large and
competent company. Mr.. Ed Hoff. Wash
ington boy. by the way, who is pleasantly
remembered for his former excellent work
with the McCaul and BCstonian opera COM
panies. makes a manly looking kazimir
and sings his role with artistic effect. Mr.
Richie Ling had but one opportunity to dis
play a really good tenor voice. and that
as in a duet in the last act. Miss Flora
Finlayson, also formerly with the Bos-
tonians. proved herself good actress in
the part of MarySka, and her fine contralto
the one good solo she has in the last act.
There are three comeGians-Fred. Solo
mon, Chas. Wayne and Joseph Herbert
and they get all the fun possible out of
their representative parts. Wayne and
Herbert particularly convulse the audience
in a drunken scene, ard the former Is an
acrobat of good abilities. Marie Celeste
made quite good part out of Ninetta. and
the minor characters were all we'll taken.
The chorus is large and efficient. the ladies
being comedy as TO face and shapely as to
figure. The opera Is splendidly mounted
the scenery being very elaborate and the
costumes gorgeous. The orchestra, under
the baton Of Paul Steindorff, performed its
part well, and the whole performance was
evidently enjoyed.
At the end of the second act the applause
was prolonged and Miss Russell was
brought out, given flowers, and was finally
compelled 20 mike speech. which she
did in graceful, heSitating manner that
was very fetching.
Then there We're calls for Mr.. Albaugh,
and that gentleman made his appearance,
and, more by implication than what he
said, indicated the great amount of care,
watchfulness and anxiety that the erection
Of that handsome building had caused him..
He said that the opening last night had
filed the ambition of his life to present the
people of Washington with a place Of
arrangement, and equal in all it's appoint
ments to the needs and deserts Of the pc J.
pie. He hoped he had done this. and he
would look for the encouragement Of the
public.

The DglnaE Nuisance.

To the Editor of The Evening Star:
Just now, while the public mind Of Wash
ington is exercised over the garbage ques-
lion, would it not be we'll to give thought
TO the kindred subject of the dump? Those
only who have lived in locality where the
refuse matter Of the house and backyard
are allowed to be unloaded form an
idea of its offensiveness. My residence hap
pens to be near neighbor TO spot that has
fer some time past been used as dump in
opposition to the protests and efforts of
both the authorities and residents of the
section. 1 can, therefore, speak from sad
experience. During the heated term, through
which we have just passed. l have had to
keep my doors and windows closed a good
deal of the time, in order to escape the
noXious odors waited from this pestiferous
deposit of old rags, leather paper, tin cans,
decayed vegetable matter, etc. Indeed, it
is said that the presence of dead animals
in such accumulationS is not uncommon. }
The fling of the mass often occurs, which
aggravates its offensiveness. Members of
my family have been at times completely
Frustrated by the foul and s.ckening stencil.
There should be some modern and satisfac-
of refuse matter. Two ways occur to me,
either Of which would furnish the desired
relief: Either have it cremated with the
garbage proper, or else establish public
dumps outside the city, at points remote
from population.
This is a subject of vast Importance, and
should occupy the early and earnest atten-
ton of the authorities. as well as of the
citizens generally. PROGRESS.

The company was entitled to indemnity II
the land could be found in Minnesota.
Along the main line there were about 2O0,-
cOo acres that were not needed to satisfy
the first grant. The company claimed this
to satisfy losses. but the land Office held
that the grants were separate and must be
adjusted separately. The case was tried In
the courts and the adjustment suspended

A NEW OPERA HOUSE
The Lafayette Square Building Opened
Under Favorable Auspices.
Lillian Russell Presents "The Tzig-
ane" to II Dig Aforementioned
Albaugh's Brief Address.

Not what it will be when all the finishing
touches have been completed, but still a
beautiful building. splendidly arranged for
the comfort of the audience. handsome as
to color and tints and brilliant as to its
Square Opera House threw open its doors
to the public last night under very favor
able auspices. The public responded in the
most generous manner, and not only was
every seat from orchestra TIC top gallery
appropriated, many ladies being included in
performance.
The gathering was representative of
Washington's cosmopolitan population and
included members of the different foreign
legations cabinet ministers and those in
official and bu siness life. The feminine por-
ton of the audience displayed some brill
liant costumes, and in the boxes and on
the lower floor the gentlemen were gener-
ally in the conventional evening dress.
1t was an audience that was evidently de-
term:ned to be pleased, and, though there
was some GOODNESS during the earlier part
of the evening, applause and encoreS We're
frequent later on.
1t was happy arrangement by Mr.. Al
Eaugh that Lillian Russell showed del.cate
his new opera house. Miss Russell is very
popular in this city. and she occupies the
front rank, both as singer and an actress
in connie opera. She is besides a very
beautiful woman, and she dresses with rare
good taste and richness. The opera select

SENT TO JAIL.
A Convicted Man Under the Edmunds
Act Waiting an Appeal.

Act Waiting an Appeal.
Louis y. Dunan. who was convicted last
June Of adultery under what is known as
the Utah or Edmunds act and sentenced
to the Albary Denitertary for a year and
a day, was today committed TO Jail by
Judge Cole tc await the acton of the Court
of Appeals.
When, last July, the defendant noted an
appeal 10 the Court of Appeals, Judge
Cole directed that Dunan and other like
defendants be admitted TO bail pending the
final disposition of the appeal, the defen-
dants to appear in court today. But when
Mr.. Campbell Carrington. Dunan's counsel,
asked today that the defendant be con-
tinued on bail, District Attorney Birney
called Judge Coles attention to the fact
that the Court of Appeals, in the case of
Capt. Henry w. Howgate. had under con-
sideration the question of the right of that
court and of the trial court to admit a
convicted ard sentenced person to bail
pending an appeal and he thought that
until n decision had been rendered by the
appellate court in the matter such a de-
PENDANT should rot he admitted to bail
Judge Cole conceded with Mr.. Birrey in
that view of the case. and Dunan was ac-
oordingly committed tc Jail But in those
cases where sentence had not been pro-
nounced, although the defendants had been
convicted Judge Cole directed that they
be continued on bail.
