in the Capital. the opening of the Aborn
English Grand Opera Company's fourth
week at the National bids fair to be
the most important event of the spring
season. Two favorites of long standing
will be offered during the week. For
the first half of the week there will be
four performances OF Faust" and the
latter half four performances Of Doni-
zetti's most familiar and most popular
opera. Lucia dl Lammermoor." Both of
these operas were inspired by equally
famous works of Literature the first
taken from Goethes immortal drama,
Faust" and the latter from Sir Wall
ter Scotts great novel, THE Bride Of
Lammermoor. The double cast for the
fourth week will be quite as competent
as those for the preceding weeks: sew
eral favorites remaining, with the new
and important arrivals. Salvatore
Sciarretti will divide the performances
of the week with Mr.. Harold in the
tenor roles of both operas. Edith He
lena and Ivy Scott appear alternately
as Marguerite after the opening per
formance. when Miss Hood will sing,
and will divide the performance OF LII

baritone roles in both operas: Alfred
