THE NEW NATIONAL.
aThe Rohemian GirI.v

The advent Of two new members Of the
Aborn company together with the num-
bers of old favorites who were IN the
| cast. insured the success Of the revival
of The Bohemian Girl. which the opera
company put on at the National last
night for the final week of its season.
This opera Of Balfe's contains probably
more popular gems Of music and tone
than any other of the lighter of the
grand operas. Indeed, were it not for its
beautiful solos and duets it could hardly
be elassed among the light grand operas.
for there Is so much Of the comic and
/ even of the ludicrous in il that 1t Dor
| ders dangerously near the ground held
sacred TO the comic operas and musical
comedies.
But any work containing such selec-
lions as 1.-THE Heart Bowed Down" I
| Dreamt that / Dwell in Marble Halls,
Then You'll Remember Me" and a
number of others must necessarily be
classed among the compositions of the
masters of music, Notwithstanding the
| fact that 1t embraces much that is not
usually connected with grand operas.
The performance last night was marked
/ principally
| first time in the ranks of the A0OTns in
this city of two singers who gave such a
splendid account OF themselves that IT is
10 be hoped that the management will
not wait until the final week of the next
season before sending them back
The first of these was Miss Louise lie
Baron, VINO sang the part Of the Gypsy
Queen in a manner which completely
oaptivated the audience Miss lie Baron
has a well-trained, clear contralto voice.
Of excellent range. and with a great deal
of feeling BY the combination Of this
with a compelling stage presence and
some splendid acting she easily made the
| individual hit OF the evening. The APP
plause after her rendition of "Bliss For
ever Past" in the second act was so In
sistent that she was forced to repeat the
entire number. Her acting in the third
act was no less remarkable and she more
than merited the appreciation that the
audience evinced by its hearty applause.
| The other newcomer TO the cast. and
one who Immediately made himself liked,
was George Shields. in the role of Devils
hoof. the leader of the gypsies, His act
| ing was also very good, and he possesses
a bass voice OF remarkable strength and
| clarity
Clara Lane was cast as Airline and
Paul Bleyden as Thaddeus. Both OF
these did very good work, the former 5
rendition of the more famous Of the
solos of the piece gaining much applause.
Her duets with Mr.. Bleyden we're also
we'll given,

list of well-rendered selections with his
Heart Bowed Down" in the second act,
while c. w. Meyer was sufficiently ludl-
crous as Florenstein. The work OF the
