MUSIC AND DRAMA.
JACK AND THE BEANSTALK.

LAOh AN 4aN DDkAND LAtlxAs
Messrs. Klaw and Erlangers' beautiful
production of the extravaganza, Jack
and the Beanstalk" will be seen at the
Jefferson theatre tonight and Tuesday
and Wednesday.
A musical critic furnishes this review
of the musical selections: All the melo-
dies are strongly marked in rhythmic
way. The chorus of Forty Thieves Is in
six-eight time allegro, for mems voices,
and introduces the robber band with ex-
hiIirating effect. A striking number on
account of the percussion effects in the
orchestra, follows in. two-foar time,
allegro, with pleasing and sensuous
waltz refrain. Sinbad has good topical
song in two.four time, dan Jacks "I've
Sold My Cow" in six-eight, with waltz
refrain is unsteady sweet. Little Miss
Muffet and Sinbad have duet that is
a fins example of melodious Epolka, and
in the first act is another charming duet.
1t is Loves Ecstacy," partly in three
four time andante, and good waltz melo-
dy or refrain. Act second opens with a
mixed chorus in two-four ii me, allegro.
There is no attempt particularly at four
part arrangement. and it is better as it
is. The composer, A. B. Sloane, is to be
commended for his clear perception in
mnnifesting himself as asmelodious rath-
er than porfound musician. A drinking
ing, contributed by Gustavs Kerker, is
interpolated in act second. 1t is very

The third act is begun with another
two four allegro chorus; and in fact that
tempo rredominates throughout the work.
But tho melodies are so cleverly contrasted
that the ear is not oppressed with sense
OF monotony. A dainty gavotte is .'Once
There Lived a Pretty Maid,'' sung by
Marie, Miss Celeste) with great vocal
charm, and rare felicity of grace.and ex-

MAINE MUSICAL FESTIVAL
This morning at City hall, at $50
o'clock the last opportunity will be
affored to purchase choice season ticket
for all the connoerts of the Maine Musical
Festival. The choice of seats will be sold
at auction. which will thus afford the
fairest chance to every one who desires a
particular seat throughout the season.
1t is expected that there will he q great
demand for choice of seats, and in fact,
for seats generally. In Bangor the sale, it
is said, fully equalled. if it did not ex-
eel the expectations Of Messrs. Chapman

know that Gadski, who m ade such a hit

Miss Rose Green, whose magnifi cent con-
tralto and superb method have won the
praises of the greatest London critics, our
own Katharine Kicker, Messrs Miles and
Davis, and that of other artists that
will appear, we have no doubt that the
festival Of 1898 will be one long to be re-
mem bered. Furthermore the choruses
will be finer than ever for, having sung
together last year. they will be in more

THE GEM.
To the tuneful music of the Mascot with
it's ever acceptable gobble duet and other
popular features, and with an enthusiasts
tic audience in front of the footlights, the
curtain dropped last night at the Gem
theatre on the last performance for this
season at this very popular resort.
The season just closed has been an emf
nently satisfactory one ITO manager and
public alike and the theatre has achieved
notable reputation far beyond the limits
of the city and state. Few summer resorts
in the whole country can show record
like this one, for entertainments of such
superior quality and the personnel Of the
auditors has been subject Of favorable
comment by many strangers from abroad.
With such an suspicious first season to
it's credit, the Gem theatre takes its place
in the front ranks of popular resorts, the
country over, and the manager, MIR. q.
W. T. Cooling, merits the oongratula-
lions which have poured in upon him
from every side.

stated as truth that the platform Sat-

for their professional ability. The at
