CARE OF TREES.

ON several occasions The Herald
has called attention to the care O,
the few shade trees that have been
allotted to Us 10y the Parking Com.
mission. Up To the present tim,
only TWO streets in our district hay,
received trees. Last spring the elm
tree. which loses its foliage at the
end OF every season was planted ON
Tcche street. while this year We Wrra
fortunate enough To secure ligus-
trum~ for Pelican avenue. and while
We are very thankful for what We
have received from the commission.
We are not getting the number rf
trees for our district iu comparison
with tn" number that are being
planted i'm other district, of the city.
Mr.. MatheWeS. the commissioner
tor this district states that in order
Tor any special street to get tree.
q requisitiOu must be made for them
either by committee or a com
mission from that street which will
be acted upon by the commission
after the application has been filed
Beautifying a town does not end
with the planting of the trees. but
il is the care Of these trees that re
quires the greatest amount OF arJ.u-
uon. Two principal things should be
adopted TO make Pelican avenue one
OF the most beautiful streets. and
they are. The trees should be boxed
and they should be Watcred regular
ly. On account OF iigustrums being
a rapidly growing tree. Pelican ave
nue. will have quite a different ap-
pearance this summer, and there will
be big change during the next year.
We will see our great mistake in not
having planted trees earlier. when
later on We will notice the beauty
of the foliage and the comfort that
is afforded during the hot summer
days. If every property holder will
take care OF the trees in front of his
or her place they will be rewarded
many times.

one day last week the lease of
the Memo Theatre from Mr. jules
Bodenger to Mr.. Philip FotO was
closed for a five-year term, the lease
being for the sum of 100000. This
price does not include the physical
property which was under the own
ership of the Memo Amusement Com
pany, OF which Mr.. Bodenger was a
stockholder associated with Mr.. Il.
\. Tansey and Mr. f. ". Burgis.
Beginning next Sunday night the
present theatre will be operated un-
der its new name, which is to be
the Avenue Theatre, and will be one
of the five theatres now owned by
Mr.. Philip Foto, namely: The Cozy,
the Napoleon Avenue, the Market
and the Majestic. His last addition,

known as the Avenue Theatre, will
be under the personal management
of the former manager, Mr.. r.

In speaking to Mr.. Foto about the
transaction of the purchase of the
Memo, he stated that he had taken
a five-year lease on the place and it
would be conducted along the same
lines as his other four theatres in
the city, and that his control of the
Memo here would not effect his for
mer plans of erecting shortly his
$25, 100000 theatre. The only change
that has been made is that it will
not be built on Teche, between Ope-
lousas and Slidell, as was first in
tended, but the present Market
Theatre will be demolished within
the next three weeks and on this site
will rise the first genuine theatre on
this side of the river. 1t will be
built on the lot measuring 64X159
feet, will be entirely fireproof and
will have a seating capacity of 1900 !

circuit of his theatres, which is being
furnished through the agency of B. /

Manager Robert Lawrence has Sc
leotcd Wang" for the first Offering
believing that opera to be the best
vehicle for displaying the full
strength of his splendid company OF
artists.
When asked as to the result Of his
recent trip to Chicago and New York
Tor the purpose of securing singers,
Mr.. Lawrence said: when | left
New Orleans in company with Mr.. J.
=. simmons, e"cretary-treasurer OF
the Southern Amusement Company, /
was determined TO engage a first
class company, or none. first Wis
tied Chicago. but found nothing that
suited me. From there | made a
short trip to Rock Island, Ill, to see
the work of some people playing
there in musical comedy. Again |
WAS disappointed. After returning to
Chicago | decided to 90 to Canton.
Ohio, for the same purpose. After
Witnessing a performance in that city
Mr.. Simmons and | agreed that none
of the performers was good enough
for New Orleans.
We then went to New York TO
keep engagements | had made with
the Grau and Whitmark Booking
Agencies. While / had expected to
find many good performers available
in New York, / must confess that |
was astonished at the number of art
lists seeking engagements. Both
booking offices were filled with per-
formers waiting to see me, and /
selected my people from about 200
applicants"
Prominent among the principal
singers engaged for the coming sea-
son are Miss Gladys Caldwell, prima
donna sOubrette, and Miss Sarah Ed
wards, contralto, now with the De
Wolfe Hopper all-star cast presenting
Gilbert and Sullivan operas.
The barytone is Mr.. George Poult- |
ney, who for five seasons was with !
the Tivoli Opera Company, of San
Francisco, and of the Madame |
Sherry" and Balkan Princess" com
panies.
Mr.. Charles Tingle, who replaced !
Mr.. Carl Haydn in the Aborn Opera |
Company, will be the tenor. Both as
to voice and art this young tenor
has received most favorable criticism
wherever he has appeared. Mr.. Tin
gle is at present with the "Madcap
Duchess" company, which has just
run in New York.
Mr.. Lawrence has secured two
with unusually fine sing
Ing voices in Mr.. Edwin Beck and
Mr.. Sol Solomon. Mr.. Beck's most
important engagements of the past
few years we're with the New York
Oscar Hammerstein's
of Naughty Marietta"
