x1ingIing Bros. Secure the Only
Genuine One Ever Exhibited.

Contrary to the belief almost univerr
sally held for several centuries, the
white elephant is not a distinct species
aud capable of perpetuation. It is an
Albino- an accident of birth and
specimens are so rare and SO royalty
priced that nations have gone to war
for their possession, while the inde-'
pendent kings of farther India have !
time and again hypothecated the flu
ture revenues of their Kingdoms for
score of years to secure the treasure
necessary to purchase them from their
fortunate possessor Every devout
Buddhist believes, with faith inn
planted from childhood, that the body
of the white elephant is thesreceptacle
of the soul of a departed priest Of
Bud Ina, while the possession Of one
of these pretty, pink-eyed animal Al
bions is believed by royalty to insure
the safety aud perpetuity of the reign
ing dynasty. It is, in fact, the royal
mascot of the reigning house, and woe
to man or woman who treats it with
indignity or fails to PROSTATE the
body in its royal presence. To secure
genuine white elephant and exhibit
it to their millions Of American pa
irons has long been the ardent desire
of the famous Ringling Bros. Year
after year they have presented to their
patrons some new and surprising evil
dence of their tireless search for nov
elites, but they have felt that not until
they had secured genuine white ele-
plant and actually placed one of these
marvellous animals upon exhibition
/ for The first time in the civilized world
could their efforts satisfy even their
own far-reaching aspirations. Sever
al years ago a special agent was sent
to India. His instructions were: ssGet
a white elephant. No matter what it
costs; no matter how long it takes; no
matter how many obstacles have to be
surmounted-ge a white elephant
] The beautiful Keddah, the only genu-
inc white elephant that human eye has
ever looked upon outside of India, is
the result of that broad commission.

He was located in the far E. st, and was

II was the benefit of Henri Albers, the
popular barytone, at the California Thea
ter last night, and the bill was Am broise
Thomas Hamlet" performed for the
first time in San Francisco.
Either of these two events ought to have
sutficed to draw a good house, but owing
TO the heat or the familiarity of Hamlet"
as drama the house was one of the
smallest OF the season.
What was wanting in mum bers, how
ever, was made up in enthusiasm. At the
end of the second act, which ends with a
drinking song-a gem of melody splen-
didly rendered by Albers-the hou e be-
came noisily demCnstrative. Not content
with flowers and braves one enthusiast
rose up in his box and hurled big wreath
of laurel on the stage, which Hamlet
lodged with neatness and dextelity just
when il was about to strike mis- manly
brow.
There was no doubt q bout the favorable
i'm preston made both by the opera of
Hamlet" and the splendid work of the
principals. Practically it is a tenorless
opera, for the part of Lsertes, although
we'll performed by Dec, was too small to
have much effect on the general perform
ance.
The choruses in Hamlet" are not very
numerous or important, and the burden
of the opera is sustained by the orchestra
and Hamlet, Ophelia, the king, the queen
and the ghost.
Henri Albers in the title-roe was splen-
didly effective. both vocally and histronl-
cally, and Nine. Berthes sang the fiorid
vocal em mbroideries OF Ophelia with de-
lightful ease.
1t was not till the scene on the ram
parts with the ghost that Albers had a
chance to astonish his hearers with dra-
matte interpretation of a tragic scene
which would have won him applause in a
prose theater.
As in his Rigoletto one was almost
tempted TO forget his fine voice and beau
tiful phrasing in the dramatic power of
his acting. The invocation to the ghost
"O mon pere, o mon roi." and the whole
succeeding scene of horror, where Hamlet
learns OF his mothers infamy, were acted
and sung with intense expression and feel
ing.
