Past and Future.

The grand opera did not mOnopolize
the attention of our theatergoers last
week by any meaps. Even on the three
momentous evenings at the National
there were large audiences elsewhere.
The conclusion seems fair, then, that
the city is large enough TO support
season of grand opera without infiicting
the punishment OF neglect on other the
atrical entertainments.
As for the grand opera, It grew in
value as the season" wore on. Faust"
was performed only moderately well
The scenery was but fair. to view It
charitably; the costumes looked as
though they had been transplanted from
other operas. and the ensemble numbers
were sadly uneven. Plancon and Nine.
Ackte did their best, but no two vocal
lists in the world could have redeemed
that evening from mediocrity- The
Barber seemed better to the eye and
sounded better TO the ear. Campanari
made the evening almost as much his as
Nine. Sembrich's- But Carmen" was
the most notable performance Of all, ar
tisticaily as well as popularity. 1t was

sonaIity and the product launched with

sons engagement OF the ConTied forces
II seems to be the understanding that
another engagement Will follow-in the
hope that then we may hear some opera
really worth while. This year most OF
the great artists were singing simulta-
neously in Philadelphia.

tator" is the best play Richard Harding
Davis has written. Mr. Haekett played
a satire which everyone took seriously.
He Is a good actor; indeed, ne IS the best
Mercutic TO be seen on our stage, but he
has not lately undertaken any play
worthy of his talents. The Crisis was
a series Of pictures; John Erminie' did
not succeed, and THE Crown Prince
has missed the mark. Mr.. Hackett is a
manager. Why do not he and Miss
Irving produce one Of Shakespeare S
comedies?
The offerings for next week include
Mrs. Langtry in a new comedy, Mr.
