The biograph pictures of the Jefffies-
Sharkey fight at Coney Island Nov. last,
which viii he presented at the Metropol-
itau tonight and all this week, are the
most perfect ever taken. They are
equally as interesting as a display of the
art of reproducing pictures as for the
other reason that they present all OF the
details of a stubbornly fought battle OF
twenty-five rounds between two big and
willing lighters
The white, shimmering light that has
been a drawback to other pictures has
been avoided. Every movement of the
arms legs and bodies of the men are
shown. Even the shadinSs of the mus
clcs are minutely reproduced.
The expressions on the faces of every
man at the rinGside are as distinct as II
the men stood before YOU under strong
lieht. The faces Of we'll known sporting
men from every part of the country may
be recognized In the first rows OF specla-
tors about the ring.
The exhibition has few bits of comedy
that always catch a laugh When the
referee makes the announcement his
mouth may be seen to move and his
hands to gesticulate The effect is the
same as of a man standing on the stage
talking I'm dumb show. Another laughter
provoking incident is when Sharkey, just
after being laughed at by Jetrries sec
nuds for missing, sticks out his tongue at
them and makes a comical face.
They run for two hours and twenty
minutes. The pictures are presented at
the rate of twenty-eight a second.
Without a doubt this wonderful repro
duction is one of the marvels Of the age.
It will be seen here at the Metropolitan
for the entire week with popular mat

The expectation of the musical public
heightens with respect to the Wagnerian
concert as the event draws near. The
novelty of the performance attracts at
tention, as it is the first time in musical
annals that so important piece of work
has ever been attempted on the concert
stage. Great singers have, indeed, before
now sung great numbers from some of
the Wagnerian works, but never before
has there been a serious attempt to Sc
lect the vital parts of four operas, and
weave them together in a harmonious
whole, giving them with art and with in
telligence.
Nine Gadski was here last year, but
since that time she has won the greatest
successes Of her life. She sang in Lon

the first time, and her success was instan-

Times declares ut is not in memory when
any artist has won such recognition in

became so great that extra prices wero
charged for the performances when she
appeared.
