Wagner's ''Lohengrin' and Balfe's 1'Bo-
hemian Girl at the Metropolitan in st.
Paul in the same order. The third week
brings the company back to the Metro
politan in Minneapolis and the operas for
the week will be Carmen Of Bizet and
'Tannhauser'' Of Wagner. The last week
of the festival will be in st. Paul and the
operas chosen will be Verdis Aida and
FlotoW's Martha The orchestra will be
under the direction of N. B. Emanuel, one
of the best known leaders Of Europe, but
little known in this country. He is said
to have held the baton over every i'm
portant singer in Europe and to be the
intimate friend Of most of the great COM
posers.
+ The company will arrive by special train
at about 6 o'clock this evening. Several
large thaater parties have been formed for
the engagement and the present outlook
is that it will be ass successful from a
box office standpoint as 1t Is certain to be
from an artistic one.
The Two Sacred Concerts.
The sacred concerts will be given on
the second Sunday evenings of the en-
gagement in both cities. The first will be
in Minneapolis and in addition to a full
concert program the "Stabat Mater will
be sung and at the second, which will be
week later in st. Paul, the st. Cecilia
mass will be given with a program quite
different from that sung in Minneapolis.
These two concerts will be the only ones
during the engagement when the entire
company will appear at any one perform
ance, for the principals alternate, but the
concerts enlist the full strength of the
company.

THE GRAND OPERA SEASON.

policy OF the company that there be no
stars and acting under that theory, the
ton are as nearly perfect as anything
ever seen in this country. By the same
method it is impossible to disappoint an
audience, as is so often done in grand
opera companies. Each role is in three
hands, and unless the company should be
decimated by some act Of Providence, the
changing Of an opera on the day of per-
formance would be unheard of.
An AII.AmerIcan Company.
The company is practically American.
AS matter Of fact there are but three
members not natives Of this country, and
Manager Savage is a firm believer in do
ing all that is possible for those of native
birth. The chorus, which is one of the
features, is made up exclusively of fresh
young voices, the great majority of whom
are graduates of some one of the many
musical colleges or Conservatives in this
country and are working with the com
pany for the experience they will obtain.
The result is that the ensemble is of a
much higher class than is to be found in
any similar organization
How Opera In English Pays.
Aside from the pleasure which the COM
pany gives in the singing of the different
operas Of the repertory, there Is a great
educational value to the work. In many
foreign countries grand opera has sub
sidy from the government, but such a
thing is unheard of here. It remained for
Manager Savage to solve the problem of
giving adequate performances of the
works Of the great composers at a price
where grand opera would not be a luxury,
but an educational factor. The prices
charged for Castle Square performances
are barely what are charged for dramatic
"a Of incr + he
organization is many times greater. 1t
is only because the music lovers realize
this and fill the theaters where the organi-
Zation is singing, that 1t becomes possi-
BILE to continue. The company plays a
season Of about forty weeks and that time
is usually spent in about nine Of the large
cities. The great expense attendant upon
the transportation Of so large an or
ganization makes it imperative that as
few changes as possible be made.
The repertory has been so arranged fol
this city that it should please all classes
There are the heavier operas for those
who like that kind of music and there are
the lighter ones for those who do not care
for the Wagnerian harmonies. Verdi
Gounod, F1otow, Bizet, Wagner and Balfe
will be heard in the four weeks and ir
addition there are to be two sacred con-
certs at the first of which Rossini's
3'Stabat Mater" will be sung and at the
second Gounod's st. Cecilia mass.

Clyde Fitch continues to- keep the crit
ics busy discussing his plays and plans
One Of his latest, Lovers Lane, to be
presented at the Bijou next week, Is con-
ceded to be one OF his best comedies: Al
though lighter in motive than The
Climbers" it Is quite as neat in construc-
tion and as deftly written. 1t was com
pleted five years ago on an order from Sol
Smith Russell who paid a forfeit because
he was not prepared at the time to make
the new production. Mr.. Fitch took his
thousand dollars, offered the play to W.
A. Brady after it reposed in his safe for
some time and now has the pleasure of
seeing it attract enormous and enthusas-
tic audiences.
Lovers Lane" has for its hero, a
broad minded and simple hearted clergy
man. who tolerates card playing, billiard
tables and other diversions, frowned upon
by members of some religious scots. He
naturally encounters opposition from the
more conservative among his flock and
complications result. In the third Of the
J -four acts the young pastor is turned out
Of his beloved church. In the last act,
however, the hearts of his enemies are
softened, and he Is triumphantly restored.
He also wins the pretty art student, Mary
Larkin, with whom he has had some idyl-
lie love making throughout the comedy
The story is cleverly worked out, with
many charming touches of sentiment, sa-
: tire and good-natured humor Many Of
the character studies are executed with
insight and fine fidelity. Among them are
the eccentric who manages the opera
house, posts his own bills and leads his
orchestra; the jealous choir singers; the
prudish purity brigadiers, and waif from
the orphan asylum, an extremely amusing
tom-boy Of II, whom the clergyman's kind
heart and tact train into civilized ways.
Lovers Lane has enjoyed long prosper
ity for five months in New York and all
summer in Chicago, and is doing much
to swell Clyde Fitchs royalties, which last
year amounted to something like three
times the salary Of the president of the
United States.

The grand opera festival is at hand.
The season Of grand opera to be pre-
sented at the Metropolitan opera houses
in Minneapolis and ST. Paul by the Cas-
tie. Square Opera company is to open
on Monday evening at the Metropolitan
in this city. The engagement will be Of
four weeks duration, two weeks being
played in each city. Should this engage
ment be a successful one, the promise is
held out that the twin cities will here
after be included in the regular yearly
tour of the organization, and that the
two cities will have an annual engagement
of grand opera sung in English.
History Of the Organization.
This splendid company has been in ex-
istence for eight years 1t had it's begin
ming in the city Of Boston. In few
years the company was taken to New
York. where for three years 1t was a fix
ture. Then a branch was sent to st.
Louis and Chicago and those two cities
fell captive to the orga anization. At this
time there were two distinct organiZa-
tions, one singing grand opera in Eng
lish and the other giving performances Of
the lighter works, and it was the policy
of the management to alternate the two
companies. The light opera contingent
is still in the field, but instead Of playing
repertory as in former days, they are pre-
senting such light musical gems as king
Dodo,'' The Sultan Of sulu," THE
Prince of .Pilsen'' and peggy from
Paris" The Castle Square Opera COM
pany, the organization which is to come
to the Metropolitan on Monday night
has been from time to time strengthened,
the poor voices weeded out, until at the
present time the critics in the cities where
the company makes long stops are a unit
| in declaring that 1t is the finest organiza-
| tton singing the works Of the great COM
posers that has ever appeared in this
| country, If not In the world
| 1t Is the aim of the management to put
all OF the operas upon the stage in a man
ner that can call for little criticism, even
on the part Of the most captious. Scenic
! ally the operas are better mounted than
they have ever been by any travelling
company and the costuming is as perfect
as it is possible to get it, The wardrobe
of the company is a most extensive one
and embraces something like two thou
sand costumes Of all ages and countries.
The grand opera company is made up of
| 110 people in the company proper and
besides there Is picked orchestra of
| thirty.
| Many Great Singers, No Stars.
In casting the various operas the man
agement has wide choice, for there are
three separate casts. The sopranos are
Adelaide Norwood, Gertrude Rennyson
Norma Romano, Maude Ramey and
Paget Watrous. The contraltos Mari
on Ivell, Ethel Houston Du Ere, Claude
Albright; the tenors, Joseph Sheehan
Lloyd D'Aubigne, Piero Gherardt; the
barytones, Winfred Goff, Francis Carrier;
Y the basses, J. Francis Boyle and Parker
'Coombs. This is fine array of singers
or her own organization. Yet it is the

Healy, who has taken an active inter- est in all that pertains to the welfare of the society. It was with considera- ble pressure that Colonel Healy &C., cepted the office last year and only consented to fill it on condition that he Wolud be relieved of the duty at the next election. While there are many members who would like to see the col onel again elected yet they recognize the fact that it is only fair to acquiesce at this time to his wish and allow him to retire from the position of an officer
 in the organization. It is generally ex- pected that the offices of secretary and financial secretary, which have been so ably filled during the past year by Messrs. Veil and Ryder, will again be rendered to these gentlemen. At the finish of the election social will take place in the form of a musical, with refreshments. The annual reports will also be read at this meeting.

 When the company was reorganized he was elected first lieutenant and was after ward made captain.
 Under his direction the company has at- iH the militia, and the members of the or ganization regret that he feels that he can no longer remain at their head.
