IRVING ON STAGE MUSIC.

IFrom the M Commercial Advertiser
Speaking the other day before the
Royal Society of Musicians in London,
Henry Irving said:
L cannot help wondering. apprehCn-
sively, what musicians think some
times of the place allotted to music in
the drama. The technical term for that
position is, I believe. incidental You
look through your programme in the
theater, and if you are a very conscien-
tious student, you may notice, in small
type, among a number of odds and
ends, the announcement that the in
cidental music has been composed by
well, probably by somebody who is much
wOrthier to occupy this chair than
am This is not all, It may be that
the orchestra is invisible; you cannot
see the stimulating gestures of the con-
ductOr, because he is ruthlessly impris-
oned in the bowels OF the earth-at any
rate, the incidental strains rise re-
prOachfUlly from beneath the stage, too
often unheeded, I fear, during the en-
tr'actes in the melOdious hum of con-
Versation. Frankly, I find these mem
ton to reflect that I have often died to
slow music, for it is with his dying, and
not with the music, that the actor wish
eS the spectators chiefly to concern
themselves. 1 once received q letter, ev-
identity written by a musician, who
complained of this association of stage
death with a compassionate chorus of
viOlins: Either he said, the acting
should be good enough without the
music or the music is good enough
without the acting. [ declined to dis
cuss such a painful dilemma. For the
orchestra, I assure you, there is a very
cordial esteem in the thea ter, even when
they are labOring underground, like the
perturbed spirit of Hamlet's father
And many plays at the Lyceum have
been enhanced by the power of music,
which I have acknowledged during my
management by securing teh cO-opera-
ton of many of our most gifted COM

Minnesota Professor Sends a Grass

One of the lot is dangerous, says Prof
Lugger; the other two are not. The

and 1874, destroying all sorts of vege-

that there is any danger of a plague
this year. He sent the South Dakota

he SAYS, will exterminate them.

The news that Hardin still lives was

by an unusually active business life of
