N INTEREST in the Minneapolis sea-
son of grand opera, which Helm
rich Conried will inaugurate Mon
day evening in the new Auditori-
um in Minneapolis. is scarcely less
strong in St Paul than in Minneapolis.
1t is to be a season distinctly OF
stars. One constellation will follow
another and the public will have the
unwonted opportunity of hearing three
successive operas sung by casts wholly
different so far as the leading roles
are concerned. The majority of those
who will attend Mr.. Conrieds produc-
ton of 'Parsifal" Monday night are
now sufficiently acquainted with the
opera to understand the full signln-
canoe Of the characters and to be aDie
to weigh the merits of the actor sing
ers. Miss Fremstad's Kundry will be
the part of chief interest, as 1T is noted
for its subtlety and for its wonderful
seduction.
In LES Huguenots" on Tuesday aft
ernoon Nordica and Sembrich, with
Homer, Scott and Dippel-truly re-
markable cast-will appear. Five ia
nous stars in one opera are unusual
even in Mr.. Conried's rich forces Any
one of these would illumine an opera,
but Meyerbeer was q writer whose
brilliance and splendid dramatic
groupings demanded always constei-
,lation. Sembrich and Nordica espe-
cially have their ardent devotees in st.
Paul and Minneapolis and the audience
will undoubtedly be a brilliant one.
There are still some seats to be had
for the afternoon and evening per-
formances.
AT the latter Caruso, the famed Ca
ruso, is the star attraction. His name
alone makes the evening worth while,
but in addition. there is Nine. de Mac
chi, the new Italian dramatic soprano,

sing Canio in "Pagliacci." The lists

WHEN BOOTH VISITED
AT BARRED'S HOME

Mrs. Edith Barrett Williams, daugh-
ter of the late Lawrence Barrett, has
written for the March number of the
Theater, magazine of class devoted
to the stage, a tribute to her fathers
memory which will be found of par
ticular interest to those whose recol-
lectionS of the giants of their day upon
the stage are still vivid.
Our home at CohaSSet was simple
but my father loved it dearly, and 1t
has many memories of men known and
loved by the world. There William
Warren, who, in my fathers youth,
had given him his first theatrical help,
was an honored guest until his death,
and the spare room was for fnany
years called the Warren ROOM NV
fathers den was an assembly place
for all. The walls were lined with
books and mementoes of the stage and
dear friends, and hung with portraits
of actors and statesmen. There each
evening we would all gather to hear
my father read or tell Of his plans for
the future, or else Stuart Robson or
William Crane (both of whom lived
across the harbor) would drop in, and
then the stories would come fast and
furious. Edwin Booth invariably spent
part of his summer vacation with U.S.
OF his lifelong friendship with my
father and their business connection

all, but cannot refrain from mention
ing my fathers devotion for the great
tragedian and of our Lawrence Bar

that for our father. for him.

OUT OF TOWN MUSICIANS

Though about six weeks have yet to
elapse before the Covent Garden opera
season begins the plans of the manage
ment are already all in order. The
season promises to be very successful.
Two cycles win be given early in
the season of Wagner's Der Ring des
Nibelungen,7 while Die MeisterSinger'

gramme.
As for novelties. it is intended to
produce for the first time at Covent

this season in its revised form adopted
by the composer subsequently to the
works production in Italy.

The Blot on the 'Scutcheon,' which, 1t
will be remembered, my father pre-
sented for a time. The play was an
artistic success. although it never paid
expenses, and yet Browning was so
pleased with this artistic triumph that
he said in one of his letters: Had
Macready been a Barrett, should have
been dramatist.' This was an ac-
encouragement OF my fathers assist

HIS FAREWELL.

LOATH TO LOSE HIM.

LONDON, May 6. Certainly the

So Joseph II. Choate characterized
the farewell dinner at the Mansion
House last night, at which %undoubted-
Is was the most remarkable gathering
of notables e assembled at the his
toric residence of that picturesque per
sonage. the lord mayor of London.

tropolis represented by the lord may;
or himself TO the government repre-
scented by Arthus. J. Balfour and the
Marquis of Lansdowne, together with
Il few of the American community,
were there.

gle and Senator Spooner of Wisconsin.
Premier Balfour in toasting Mr..
Choate said, NO greater honor could
have been done me than to have pro-
posed this toast
On rising TO respond Mr.. Choate was
greeted with rounds of applause. He
spoke at considerable length and with
much feeling. He said that he was
homesick and glad to be returning to
his native land, where old friends were
diminishing as fast as new ones were
making here. If he remained much
longer, he said, he would have a worse
disease than homesickness-namely.

had once wisely said that he would
not trust an ambassador in England
more than four years because the
English would spoil him. They would
not spoil him as the children of Israel
spoiled the indians, but contrarywise.

upon him..
He said he did not dare trust himself
to speak of the honor he felt in being
the guest of such an assembly gathered
to say farewell. altogether too much
credit has been attributed to me-" MI.
Choate said, for the happy and de-
lightful relations now existing between
the two countries. If / have contrib
Hted to maintain what ! found on tax
ing up my post the last six years will
be the proudest of my life. But the
real reason for the happy state of af-
fairs between the countries does not
belong to the ambassador. But the
two men responsible for their relations
are Lord Lansdowne and Mr.. Hay.
