LAsr NIGHT AT TEE OPERAS.
BOheme'' In broadway. Don Gisvan-
MI In ThIrty-fourth Street.

At the Metropolitan Opera House last
night Puccini's delightful la Bohsme"
was repeated. Weather has very little
effect on Monday night audiences at the
older OF the two opera houses. The SUBJ
scription for that evening is large, and when
the tenor is Caruso the noble army Of
standees faces the music without hesita ton.
There was no important change in last
nights performance except that Mr.. Caruso
appeared without the mustache which
formerly adorned his upper lip. This
change had no material effect on the inter-
probation 40 far as could be observed. Even
h tenor's enthusiastic adorers behind the
orchestra rail interrupted his singing with
their i'll timed applause in the old familiar
places.
Mr.. Caruso sang Rodolfo in~oomparably,
as he always does, and Mime. Sembrich's
Mtn' had all OF its familiar charm and
tenderness. The other parts were in the
n OF the same artists as heretofore.
n orchestra deserves special mention.
MIR. Conried's enterprise in adding sixteen
players to the string department has borne
good fruit. The richness Of the tone
quality OF the orchestra has been improved
and the balance is decidedly better.
Mozart's Don Giovanni" was sung once
more at the Manhattan Opera House. 1t
was heard by an audience OF good size.
Maurice Remand sang the title role for the
second time here. He was in better voice
than o Saturday afternoon, but his tones
still lacked solidity and steadiness and
freq uently ran 10 extreme pallor. His sing
ing was by no means what might naturally
be expected of an artist OF his reputation.
His delivery of the recitativo secoo had
vivacity, variety and elegance. but was
marred by certain mannerisms. Doubt
less he was still suffering from the effects
of his recent cold.
= Mr.. Renaud's conception Of the part Is
is a splendid picture, and his oostuming
is most excellent. The other members OF
the cast were those heard on Saturday
afternoon. Mime. Donalda's piquant Ter
lima was again observed with pleasure and
Mr.. Bonci once more bestowed the treasures
of his art on delighted hearers. Mr.. Cam
panini conducted with his former skill.

RIOT CALL OVER A STEER.
Butcher Couldn't Get the Animal in His
Store and Small Boys leased Him.

A riot call summoned out the reserves
Of the East Fifty-frst street station house
to the butcher shop Of George Griot, at
Fifty-seoond street n Third avenue, last
night. 1t was over a prize steer, for which
Griot had built a pen in the window, 80
as to put him on exhibition. When the
animal, which has been named Teddy
Roosevelt, was led toward his pen it was
found that he was so fat that he couldn't
get through the door. Griot then tied him
to the awning rods in front OF the shop
and turned all the light from the shop win
dows on him, determined to put him on
exhibition anyway.
One of Griot's butchers kept watch over
the steer. Small boys tickled the steer,
threw pebbles at him and annoyed him so
much that he broke his bonds, and, with
the butcher clinging to his head, tried to
punish his tormentors himself.
Griot didn't like to see the steer, which
cost $500 and took the first prize at the
Chicago International Butchers Fair last
year, jumping around the sidewal and
running such chances OF injury, 80 he came
out and helped his man.
Everybody then pitched in for the fun
of the thing and engaged in n free fight,
with the two butchers and the steer In the
middle. Griot finally got the steer away
from the crowd and led him to a stable.
The reserves stopped the rest Of the riot
in short order. There wore no arrests.

Lynchburg, Nov. 30.-An investisa-
ton is being made into the circum-
stances which led to the wreck of two
Southern railway trains near here
Thursday, resulting in the death Of
Samuel Spencer, president of the
road, and six other persons, and the
injury of many others. The death of
William Pollard, negro porter in
Spencer's private car, and J. w. Shaw,
negro fireman, both of whom died in
the hospital here, swelled the death
list to seven in all. The injured are
doing nicely and probably will re-
cover.
The scene of the wreck is 10 miles
south of Lnchburg and many persons
visited it to see the effect of the dis
aster.
The escape of f. A. Merrill of New
York, private secretary to Spencer,
the only survivor of the party on the
private car, except a porter. was
miraculous. The injuries he sustained
are not serious and he will be able to
leave the hospital in a few days.

Cole and Johnson-Gennett

In presenting these well known
comedians and composers of Negro
melodies, at the Gennett next We'd
nesday night an entirely new field
has opened to the colored performers
Hitherto the satirizing of the current
fads and fancies has been the special
perquisite of the white artist, but in
their latest Offering, The Shoe Fly
Regiment" Cole and Johnson have
boldly entered the arena of legitimate
musical farce comedy. As Hoyt satir-
lied the shortcomings and absurd
ties of our white Militia, in the Milk
White Flag" etc, SO the authors ex-
hibit the inside workings of color
ed military company. The opportun-
tiles for fun making are unlimited
and have been taken full advantage
of. Cole will be seen in a built up"
edition of his famous tramp creation
and Johnson will be dandy young
officer of the regiment. Tom Brown
will have a congenial part and Sam
Lucas. Bob Kelly and Andrew Tribble
are well cast.
Foremost in the female contingent
is Siren Navarro the greatest ballet
dancer of her race and the o:iy Afro
American toe dancer in the world.
Anna Cook, Inez Clough, Mollie Dill,

give great opportunity for scenic and
costume display, which has been
taken every advantage of by the man

SCHOOL ECHOES.

The fair is over and both teachers
and pupils are again hard at work.
Miss Vesta Small spent Saturday
and Sunday at her home in Wabasso.
The Misses Kempton and Ball
spent Saturday and Sunday at their
respective homes in Morgan.
Friday morning the first spelling
lesson of this year was given. Cor
rect spelling goes long ways in
making fine business men and women.
Last Thursday morning our high
school listened to a very fine musical
program. Miss Maud Whittet played
the opening selection. Misses Quar-
ton and Barnes sang and in conclu-
sion the Misses Baldwin contributed
an instrumental duet. The talent in
the school is great, and should be
brought to light.
