Musical Notes.

The Kneisel Quartet, which gives it's first concert tomorrow night, comes from Boston, where Franz Kneisel Is leader of the Boston Symphony orches- tra. It comes here recommended by that Henschel whose marvels of ex- Quisite accompaniment StHl finger in our cars and memories. The quartet gives subscription concerts every year throueho all the principal cities of the Fast, and last year gave :l series cf chamber concerts in London. Pad- crews kl, Aus der One, D Albert have played at some of these. and many If Ivorak's most enjoyable compositions lave first been heard from this cele- hreted quartet. Franz INne'se is first violin, of course. Otto Roth second violin. Louis Svecenski viola, and AL win Schroeder, violoncello.
 The testimonial concert arranged for Fritz Scheel by the San Francisco Sym phony Society and the Apollo Choral Society, H. B. Pasmore director, takes place at Metropolitan Temple this aft ernoon at 2:30. The programme is an excellent one, including Tschaikow- sky's Romeo and Juliet" overture, Schubert's Death and the Maiden D Pasmores Star of Bethlehem and Beethoven's Ninth Symphony. The so- loists are Millie Flynn. soprano; Flor ence Scarborough, contralto; Frank Coffin, ten Jr; Sig. Abramoff, bassu.

Baldwin.

There will be a triple bill at the Bald win next week, consisting of 'In Old Japan" "A Dresden Shepherdess" and a Scheel symphony concert. In one evening you will have the pleasure of seeing Pillar Morin in both tragedy and comedy.
 The story of 'The Dresden Shepherd ess' is a tale of the love of the Fairy Queen for Pierrot. Pillar Morin is Pierrot Pierrot is indifferent, but. taught by Cupid, learns to love not Ti- tania but Sylvia, the shepherdess, who, in turn loves-not Pierrot-but Colin, the shepherd. Pierrot cajoles the Fairy Queen with an affectation of love to give him her scepter, and then he base ly drives her forth. Then Sylvia steals the scepter from him, and he, too. is driven back to his home fin the moon, whence little Pierrots should never stray"
 The comedy is written by Vance Thompson, music by Aime Lachaume. A ballet of Dresden shepherdesses is on
The San Francisco call., 1898-05-15

i It remembers another tableau; that at the Baldwin, where Pillar -Morin by the shuddering strength of her agonized posture. by the exquisiteIy sympathetic horror Tn her beautiful, expressive face brings home to the watcher the tragedy of the death of the Empress. If you looked but at Pillar Morin, at her alone, you'd understand. She is the mirror of emotions, in which is focused all the
 rays of feeling. All that passes, all
 that takes place is reflected in that lovely, changing face, in that graceful,
 natural pose, in those eyes so like dark, deen mountain lakes.
 The people at the California remem- Der this, and then they look at Tom i Sharkey. And they howl!
 1 And the curtain fallsi
 It is time. There are talents so great | that human nature cannot bear the 1 full exercise of them. The audience
 can endure no more.
 It is whispered that the other great pantomimist-he who crowds MoroS- ! co.'s with admirers, gallery upon gal l lery of them, enough to fill all the | other theaters in town combined-cr1t- l iticizeS his great rival who serves now | in Thespia's Temple for descending to | speech. James Jeffries, it is claimed, | disapproves of the use of words. Ac- l cording to his finer interpretation of
 Dramatic Art, articulate speech is the
 resort of incapacity.
 Now, 1t must be admitted that James-J -Jeffries makes his meaning per fectly clear. And not a word does he utter. Just once he smiles-when his
 lesser brother shows evidence of his own skill in pantomime. It is not Pilar-Molin smile exactly, which is
 what the poets imagined when they
 used the old simile of the sun breaking l through clouds. It cannot candidly be said that Morosco's pantomimist has a beautiful smile. It's too nearly allied to that lifting of the snarling l upper lip one sees and admires-from a safe distance-in the four-footed
 pugilists. No one can conscientfously accuse James, -Jeffries of relying upon his physical charms for the great suc- i cess which is so deservedly his.
 The methods of this great artist are almost the reverse of those his rival
 uses. His costume is the height of simplicity. Clothed in black tights,
 with the American flag for trunks, he sits between rounds sheepishly eytng the audience carelessly scratching his
 nose with an unsatisfactory, wadded
 finger of his swollen glove, his arms like the legs of 8 piano, his black hair
 simply, chastely "slicked down" over
 his forehead When time is called he
 skips toward his unhappy partner in
 this dumb duet in action. He dances about him. He slides. He ducks. He
 smashes He clutches at his oppo-
 nent, and then inconsistently throws him off, scornfully, easily. only to
 make for him again savagely. And
 da capo, da capo, until the thrilling
 athletic drama is done.
 The shouts, the shrieks. the pathetic appeals for more that come from the
 audience at the close of ten minutes
 of this classic pantomime, are the tributes the world pays to the favor1te of the gods; he who, all untrained, all
The San Francisco call., 1898-05-15

unaccustomed to the glory of the foot lights, leaps, by sheer strength of his genius over the obstacles lesser artists have to overcome slowly and painfully.
 The management at Morosco's has omitted to give to the public the short explanation with which Pillar Morin usually prefaces her programmes. This Is only another proof of the genius Of James-J Jeffries, whose work needs not the lamp of written words any more than that of spoken ones. It's story is one act, of course, of the great trag- edy, the struggle for pugilistic exist ence In Tom -Sharkey's opinion, it's title should be "The Survival of the Unf1ttest."
 Experienced dramatic critics will note an odd coincidence. That great actor, James J. Corbett, asserted and still maintains that Robert Fitzsim- mons won his laurels by starring in the self-same play. And Du Maurter holds that ones fellow craftsman is one of the two critics whose verdict means life or death to the artist. He also intimates that the public is likely to come round to the craftsman s point of view in time.
 But this Is a question merely of the ethics of criticism. The great revival in pantomimic art which has given so many great men to the American stage may be relied upon to keep the drama pure and unspotted, devoted ever to lofty ideals.
 But one thing is to be feared and that, happily, is improbable. Should the Champion of the World Gin New York) challenge the Champion of the World Gin Denver) and the Champion of the World Cat present in Pennsylvania and the Champion of the World (now lighting like hell'' at the California; and the Champion of the World (the idol of Morosco's) to engage in pugilis- tic pantomime for the Worlds Cham pionship, the elimination of four of these five great actors must follow.
 In that event what, O what. would become of the American stage?

Orpheum.

The Orpheum has engaged Edouard Remenyi, the great violinist, who will make his first appearance at this house tomorrow evening. Everybody knows Remenyi Everybody has heard him play and that is only an additional req son for wanting to hear him again and again. To be able to hear so famous an artist for the popular prices pre- vafling at the Orpheum is a test of the great success of vaudeville in the West Other new features of the bill are the Manhattan comedy four who rank among the Very best quartets playing the vaudeville stage.

TiiVoli.

The Iroquois Club will attend the Tivoli tonight in a body to see Ship Ahoy," which will run all next week. A week from tomorrow "The Poster,' '' a comic opera composed by San Fran ciscans, will be produced. L. G. Car penter, dramatic critic of the Post, and John P. Wilson are responsible for the libretto. The music is by Chester S. Packard.
 The theme is Poster Art, and there's a love story, boundless opportunity for clever, novel costuming, pallets and grotesque Gaaces and a possibility that The Poster" may make hit. At any rate. San Francisco Is interested in the event. and the Tivoli managers believe that but one hearing will be necessary to set the whole town whistling "It's All in the Point of View and The Bee and theA Lightning Bug" The dresses are made fro we'll known poster de- signs by famous artists, the odd poster effect being carried out with striking fidelity All the costumes will be new, and the wigs are being manufactured expressly for this big Tivoli production.
