The fifth and last of the Winter series
of Seibert's orchestra concerts will be
given at the Metropolitan opera house
this afternoon at $50; the programme for
this event has been made up from the
requests sent in by the patrons of these
concerts. A large number of requests
have been received and the character of
this programme will denote, to a great
extent, the style of music most favored as
concert selections by St Paul music
lovers; the quality Of the music for which
requests were received indicates that the
standard of musical intelligence In this
city is of an exceptionally high order In
popular music the operas '"The Charla-
tan" and 1.-THE Fortune Teller are most
In demand; the opening number will be
the "Charlatan'' march, and 1.-THE For
tune Teller" selections will be third on
the programme. OF heavier character
are the overtures from merry Wives of
Windsor and La Mute de Portici," and
the selection from ''Lucrezia Borgia,"
which closes the concert. The Peer
Gynt" suite, the descriptive piece, "shep-
herds Life in the Alps" and the dainty
intermezzo, Sunset" complete the pro-
gramme, which is certainly one of the
best ever offered for concert in this
city. The programme in detail is as fol-

The great charm of the Prisoner of

the sentiment it contains. The fruitless
love of Rudolf and Flavia takes a strong
and immediate hold upon the sympathy OF
the listener All the world loves a lover,
and is no less enamoured of a fighter, and
in the maze of intrigue and the occasion
al clash of steel is found wherewithal to
stir the pulse of the locker on.

way of penance. AS it turned out, the
laugh was on the count, for considering
that only half the number of perform
ances were given the business was con-
siderably bigger than when she played
there with Booth. This. is only one of
the many instances, however, where
Modjeska has played to far bigger re-
ceipts than she has in many seasons
past. Whether it is because she is only
sharing the general theatrical prosperity
or whether it is because she is the only
one left Of the great tragic stars, it is
hard to say, though the latter eXplana-
ton is probably the more correct.
