Wilson Rtirrott nt the National anil tdglit
Opera at AlbnuKli' A I'ino Rendering
of Ruck's "Light of Asln"Vromlcd by
tlic Choral Society.
The Inst engagement of Mr. Wilson Uarrctt
anil bis London company in Washington prior
to their departure for England will be played
at the New National Theatre this week. There
is no question about the heartiness of Wilson
Barrett's welcome on his return here. As actor,
author, and manager he i6 esteemed and appre
ciated in this community, and ho is sure to
achieve additional popularity durine his present
engagement, lie will present one novelty during
the week, in a new and original modern society
drama by two voung London journalists, Addi
son Bright and Jerome K. Jerome, entitled
"What Women Will Do." He will also, by
general desire, reproduce that beautiful and
picturesque dramatic story of the Isle of Man,
"Ben-My-Chree." He will, of course, be aided
bv that forceful actress and charming woman,
Miss Eastlnke, and that excellent comedian and
character actor, Mr. George Barrett, who made
Eiich a favorable impression here
during tho
last engagement of Wilson Barrett.
ino reper
and "Chatterton;" Wednesday, "iho silver
King:" Thursday, "What Women Will Do;"
Friday, "Clito;" Saturday matinGe, "What
"Women Will Do;" Saturday, "Clito." The
regular prices will prevail.
Dudley Buck's "Light of Asia."
The Choral Society will close its seventh sea
son with a performance that will surpass in
interest and importance anything ever before
attempted in music in Washington. The fact
that "The Light of Asia," the most important
work of one of tho leading American compos
ers, is to bo given by the society, with tho as
sistance of the entire Boston Symphony Or
chestra, has awakened great interest in the city,
and now comes tho announcement that tho per- I
formance is to be conducted by tho composer, i
3Ir. Dudley Buck is probably better known to
the American public in general than any other (
of ur native composers, his church music and
songs having brought him nearer to the people I
than others who have restricted themselves to
the higher forms of music. This cantata is tho j
most important of his works and is tho only
American composition of the kind that has been
honored with a performance in England, having
been gh en in Loudon duriug tho season of '80. ,
The words are compiled from Sir Edwin Ar
nold's great poem, and tell the history of
Buddha, with a setting forth of his doctrines. '
The music is most interesting, constantly tune
ful, and adapted to the different periods of the ,
life story. The soloists will be Miss Jennie
Dutton, soprano; Mr. William H. Reiger, tenor,
and Mr. Ericsson F. Bushnell, bass, all of New
York. Metzerott has the tickets, which are
selling rapidly.
Summer Opera at Albaugh's.
To-morrow evening the Carleton Compauy
will enter upon its second week of light opera
with a production of Offenbach's "Brigands,"
which was successfully given here by the com
pauy duriug the regular season. The com
pany is fully equal to the requirements of the
music. The opera will be handsomely mounted.
It is needless to say that the music is light and
melodious, and therefore pleasing, and in
several instances betrays the clever workman
ship of the composer. Miss Alice Carle as
FiorcUu will appear in a most picturesque cos
tume, which reveals her to the eyes of the pub
lic as a woman of handsome stage presence.
The broad comic element will be supplied b
3Iessrs. IX. C. Do Mesa and Charles A. Bigelow.
There is only one matinGe, that of Saturday.
The admission to all parts of the house is
twenty-five cents, while reserved seats are
placed at fifty and seventy-live cents.
" Dootlcs's Baby" at tho Bijou.
"Bootles'sBaby," the famous Madison-Square
success, will be at Harris's Bijou Theatre next
Monday night, to open a week's engagement.
The attraction forms one of the biggest of tho
present season. The company If. one of rare
strength, and the play is one of great beauty.
There is no melodrama of the stilted order with
which the London stage abounds, no great
crises, uothing of the sort. You are won by tho
artless prattle of the baby, and by tho great
heaited manliness of Booties. Tho vlllian
father seems somewhat impossible to Ameri
cans. But wc have to bwallow him, as he is, in
a measure, the essence of the play. An inter
esting feature is the insight the pluy gives into
English army life. Some critlc'has said tnat
it smacks of Charles Lever. The company pro
ducing it is said to be composed of capable la
dies and gentlemen.
The Thuntrivnl Mechanics' Benefit.
At the benefit of the Theatrical Mechanics'
Association at the National Theatre Tuesday
afternoon the programme will ineludc the third
act of "The Burglar;" Wilson Barrett in "Chat
ton;" Miss Georgio Metzgar, the favorite con
tralto, will sing "Olga," this being her last ap
pearance here before her departure for Europe;
Mr. W. T. Carleton will give Moiloy's beautiful
ballad, "Hose Marie;" Mr. J. K. Murray, bar
itone of Carleton's Company, will sing "Let
All Obey;" Professor Elml will show his dissolv
ing views, and there will bo many other enter
taining features. Seats are on sale at the thea
tre box office.
Mr. George 1. Scott's Testimonial.
Mr. George D. Scott, the well-known comic
singer, has been tendered a testimonial concert
and entertainment at National Eilles' Hall on
April 30, by bis appreciative friends and fellow
citizens. Sir. Scott has for tho past twenty
years given his services gratuitously for almost
every charitable object, aud has sung for nearly
every church or society in tho city. Those who
have been entertained and aided by him have
now the opportunity of showing in" a substan
tial manner their appreciation of his efforts.
There should not be a vacant place in Na
tional KilleB' Hall on the evening of tho 30th.
Tho prognunmo of the entertainment will bo i
given later.
A 1'iuiui llccltal by Von Bulow.
Dr. Yon Bulow, tho famous pianist, will give
a piano rtcital at Albaugh's Opera House on
the afternoon of Tuehday, tho 2'Jth. It is many
years since Yon Bulow was before heard in this
country, but the memory of his admirable play
ing is still fresh in tho minds of all who have
ever heard him. In the esteem of many com
petent musical ciltics, Yon Bulow is without a
peer as an interpreter of Beethoven and the
other great composers. Seats aro on sale at
3Illler'H book store, Fifteenth street.
Kernun'h Theatre.
One of tho features of Rose Hill's English
Folly and Burlesque Company, which opens for
the week at Kernan's to-morrow night, is "Ruby
of tho Desert," a seriesof pictorial tableaux that
have never been surpassed. The funniest aud
richest of burlesques, "Parisian Bevels; or,
Cupid's Capers," introduces tho handsome aud
gifted Marie Kostelle, Uie most popular bur-
tory lor tue wcck is as ionows: .tiuuuuj auu
Tuesday, uBen-My-Chree;" Wednesday mati
ng, "flip. Cnlnr Serjeant." "A Clerical Error,"
lesquo queen of tho day. A host of beautiful
and shapely girls execute dainty gavottes, clas
sical cotillons, and exquisite minuets. Rico and
Barton, those masters of wit and fun, add their
mite to tho general fund of good humor, and
assist the pretty Amazons in their onslaught on
mankind.
Miml-Rcndinc; anil Sprltualism.
Mi. J. Randall Brown, tho mind-reader, will
give an exhibition of his remarkable powers at
tho National Theatre to-night, in connection
with Lillle May Browu, tho sprltualistie mate
rializing medium, who will civo somo tests of
her powers. A highly interesting and sensa
tional programme "is promised. Among tho
mind-reading tests which Mr. Browu will give,
the most wonderful will be over a wire be
tween the theatre and the Capitol Building,
Mr. Brown, from tho theatre, reading the num
ber of a watch in the hands of a committee at
the Capitol. The seances will begin at S
o'clock.
Globe Thoatro.
Leavitt'a Big Specialty Company will bo tho
attraction at tho Globe next week. Sparring
bouts will also be given at each performance,
as well as a femalo minstrel scene and an after
piece. NOTES OF Til 10 STAGE.
Viola Allen will be n member of the .Tcfrcrson
Florence Company next season.
Uhca is a great favorite in Cleveland, and tho
llorlsts of that city have named a new rose after
her.
London despatches say that Bernhardt has
signed an engagement to make nnother tour of
tho world, beginning in this country in Septem
ber. It is said that Victor Maurcl, tho famous French
baritone, has made an engagement to come to
America for threo years, the remuneration being
S100.000.
Audran is said to have produced a now comic
opera entirely worthy of tho composer of "Tho
Mascot" und "Olivette." It is called "L'ffiuff
Rouge," and scored an immediate success at the
Folios Dramatlques in Paris.
The local theatre manager in a small town
across the Potomac recently wrote Frederick
AVnrdc in this wiso: "Wo want 'Virglnlus' here;
there are lots of old Virginan3 who would give
all they've got to seo a good Southern play."
Tho one-hundredth performance of "Tho Son-
ator" will tako place at tho New York Star The
atre Tuesday evening. The house will bo deco
rated with flowers. Photographs of Mr. Crane as
the Senator, framed in Japanese silk, will be the
souvonirs.
Rosina Yokes's laugh sounds like the dropping
of gold pieces in a tankard of wine. It is a clever
bobolink lnugh, and it is artfully stuck all over
her part, like the cloves in a ham. She never
laughs out of tune. She very often sings out of
tunc. rVim CrinMc.
It is said that Honry E. Abbey lost StO.OCOon
his engagement of Tamagno, the great Italian
tenor, whom he paid $2,000 a night. The draw
ing power of Patti and Albani, however, moro
than made up the loss to Abbey, whose season on
tho whole is believed to have been a big finan
cial success.
In Madrid when an actor has a benefit his ad
mirers send to the theatres little gifts, such as
canes, slippers, game, and such trilles, just as if
it were a donation party, and the employes hand
these gifts around among the audience for in
spection, while next day a complete list of them
is printed in the papers.
Donnelly and G Irard, in that eller ve3eent tarce
comedy, "Natural Gas," will be seen at the Now
National Theatre for one week, beginning Mon
day, April 23. Among tho now features will be
Hub Smith's latest song, "Swinging in the Grape
vine Swing." The Imitations of nil the distin
guished celebrities will, of course, bo retained.
A. H. Cunby, manager of the Francis Wilson
Opora Company, was married in Baltimore on
Mouday last to Jessie Quigloy, of Chicago. Tho
couple will sail for Europe May 10. Francis
Wilson will join them in London, and the party
will make a tour of the Continent. Laura
Moore, of Wilson's company, will go with them.
Gen. Annenkoff, Governor of Siberia, has or
ganized a trouno of barbarian vocalists from
Turkestan, Afghanistan, and tho Khanate of
Bokhara, and contemplates a tour of concerts in
the principal European cities, commencing with
St. Petersburg, tho proceeds to bo devoted to tho
establishing of schools and hospitals in Central
Asia.
Henry Irving has been nominated for Parlia
ment by u somewhat officious group of admirers.
In a letter in which he asserts that he has no
desire to sit among tho legislators of his country,
he adds; "An actor's work demands a calmer at
mosphore than is to be found in the strife of the
public needs and personal ambition of such a
lofty kind." , '
The reports sent out during the week to the
cireet that Lawreneo Barrett had written Edwin
Booth that his health had become so bad ho was
likely never to appear on the stage again are
probably pure fiction. Booth denies that ho has
received any fiuoh letter. Mr. A. M. Palmer, of
New York, has a letter from Barrett dated Monte
Carlo, March SO, in which tho tragedian says ho
is in the best of splrita, is regaining ills strength,
und will be homo in Juno and ready to tako the
field again in October.
Manager John W. Albaugh's new theatre in
Baltimore will bo constructed out of the present
Lyceum Theatre on North Charles street. Mr.
Albaugh has purchased an udjoining building,
and will combine tho two and turn the property
into a modern theatre, securing a largo seating
capacity nnd all the facilities of a complete new
homo of entertainment. Tho best attractions,
including Booth and Barrett, will play there.
Mr. Albaugh will give up tho lease or tho Holll-day-street
home, which will be run as a low
priced theatre, it is underotood.
Society ia to lurnish another "star" to tho
stage, and the aspirant for histrionic famo is no
less a personage than tho Baroness Julio do Fon
teiiilllut, a Bister or Mrs. W. IC. Vanderbllt. Tho
Baroness says that she has been studying for tho
stage Binco last fall under Mr, Boueicault's direr
' tlon, and adds that, being driven to tho necessity
of supporting hcrsolf, she naturally turns to the
profession which lias the greatest charms for her.
Somo very curious tules aro told of tho peculiar
tastes and hubits ot the Baroness. If these re
ports aro not wholly falso sbo and Mrs. Leslie
Carter would make a great team. Tho Barone&s
has heretofore lived on a S2.000-a-year allowance
from tho Vanderbllt family.
A little incident not down on the bills oc
curred at tho Grand Opera House during tho
performance of "Tho Great Metropolis" on Mon
day night. During an intermission between tho
acts, und while tho orchestra was playing varia
tions on "Climbing up the GolUen Stairs," some
boys in the gallery whistled un accompaniment
which wus so perfect in time and musical in
counterpoint and harmony that tho audience at
first began to laugh at tho interpolation, but
finally broke out Into applauBo.and an encore was
demanded. The good-natured leader of tho or
chostra acceded to tho demand, and playing tho
same theme over again, the boys repeated their
whistling accompaniment, N. Y. Mirror.
"WOMAN AM) SOCIAIj PROGRESS.
The VIcwh or a South Ainorlcan Statesman
on an Important Subject.
At the recent reception tendered by the
Woman's National Press Association to tho
delegates to the Pan-American Congress, Sciior
Caamano, the Minister from Peru and dclc
gato to the Congress, read a thoughtful and in
tcrcstinc paper on "Woman's Inllucnco Upon
Social Progress." Tho paper attracted much
attention, and there has been such a demand
for it that by request The Heuald to-day
gives it space. Tho paper wis as follows :
Fortunately Tor humanity, in these, our times,
egoism, the child or prejudice, exercises littlo
power in the practice of certain principles,
which, if it bo true that they uro axiomatic, have
not had just application, nnd to-tiny aro lound
holding their ground, in the enjoyment of their
rights, their prerogatives, and their pleasures.
Linn lately woman was a thing oi luxury, ex
posed to the public gn.e. She was kept beautiful
and well arrayed, but protected from social con
I
tact; every consideration and tne aiicetion in
spired by her delicacy and grace awaited her;
she was cared ror nnd Mattered, but she was ig
nored as much as possible and underrated, or at
least given only in small doses that education
the bread of tho soul which she anxiously de
sired, but enjoyed by rule. To-dnyl What a
horizon sbo has before her 1 Thcro are no longer
barriers to her perfection. We, who have jeal
ously guarded the treasury of her endowments,
have comprehended that wo aro tho greater and
nobler the more wo ennoble nnd exalt the being
who embodies all our aspirations and forms our
complement; and utilizing tho abundanco of
virtue and intelligence which surround her, wo
have interrupted her in her dream, in order to
placo her nt the height which belongs to her:
and, educating her llrst, wo have Introduced her
to society, permitting her to wander freely nnd
alone nmid tho vicissitudes of lire, in order that,
by her own exertions nnd wlthoutothor restraint
than her decorum, she may present hcrseir as
she docs to-day. free from prejudices, acquainted
with the world, knowing how to distinguish tho
true and tho false, mistress of hcrseir, tho archi
tect of her own fortunes, unmindful of calami
ties, Independent, joyous, proud.
Butthia is notnll; the woman or to-day, with the
consciousness or her racultie3 aud her worth, is no
longer restricted to tho tasks and limits natural to
her sex; her lively imagination, her moral energy
and the applause which, now satisfied, wo gladly
give her In her career of progress, but accelerate
tho car which conducts nor from acquisition to
acquisition, and from victory to victory, and
already she contends with us for place, which
we Dolitclv rcllnauish. and shfi Drives us nn ex
ample, and at times, indeed many times, sbo cor
rects and teaches us. In tho bold scope of her
accomplishments she embraces everything; in
ventions, tine arts, poetry, literature, manufac
turing Industry, scientific professions, nnd oven
tho press arc included in the vast field of her am
bition. Under tho direction or woman tho public prcs3
is moderate, llko her sex, and like her sex dis
creet; she espouses with enthusiasm every
worthy cause and recoils from bitter discussions
and hurtful opinions; delicate of temperament,
she ever shuns anything which may wound the
susceptibilities; recognizing by intuition indeli
cate topics, in political emergencies alio avoida
them as a bed of thorns, and believing that in
this field only deceptions abound, she does not
waste her energy in derending the principles or
any one party, but passes between tuo contend
ing files, waving the banner of conciliation; and
when tho leaders of both parties, becoming irri
tated and inflamed, excite and foment discord,
woman nnd her pon clamor for peace, that sweet
and Christian sentiment which always occupies
the most prominent placo in her heart and mind.
Honor and tho tamily find in that press a for
midable bulwark; woman, by her very being, is a
defender of both; her exquisite sensibility aud the
fear that that crystal, which she religiously pre
serves as sacred, may be broken or even sullied
in the eyes of tho world, prompts her to defend
the rights of others in order to secure
her own; she confronts calumny, battles
with it, nnd conquers it, in order that
we may learn to watch over reputations
that aro dear to us and to defend and hallow the
home, the secret refuge of tranquillity and of
social welfare. In these cases -woman wields
arms whoso edges aro irresistible; she risi erect,
steadfast and hnughty; and it Is then and only
tuen tnat sue develops a win power wnieii is
beyond our reckoning ; for this sex, which is
everywhere called weak, is only so with regard
to physical force ; and when she espouses a cause,
which is always noble, she displays a bewilder
ing activity, and is strong and steadfast, never
wavering, not even to sacrifice herself, which
she does, when necessary, calm, erect, invin
cible. The press offers a school which has its own
characteristics; academical dissertations nnd
purely doctrinal writings aro far from its scope
and aim: from its scope, because being necessa
rily contlned within narrow limits, such writings
monopolize the timo and space destined to ques
tions of immediate interest; from its aim, be
cause since its mission is to please the public, it
deprives them of the desire of reviewing tho
dally occurrences which, in general, constitute
its principal charm. In this respect the press,
conducted by woman, shines with brilliancy; di
rected by those who hold in their hands the
chords of tho human heart with which they play
at will, it embraces all that in necessary to Hat
ter their inclinations; it Is varied and elegant;
like the hummiinr-bird, it extracts tho honey
which tho llowers hold in their cup to lavish it
without reserve; and transmitting to tho reader
its many Impressions, it keeps the curiosity al
ways alert, diverts the mind, often fatigued by
trouble or by dlssust. and Instructs bv delight
ing, without tiring or leaving disagreeable im
pressions. The press is the thermometer of civilization.
Who escapes its disquisitions? Who is not sub
ject to its scalpel? Avhodoesnotrespectlt? Who
does not relish Its favorable opinions? Who does
not fear its reprehension ?
Tnc crucinio ot men and or public aliairs, the
bearer of good and or bad news, tho prompter or
rerorms. now applauding, now censuring, it re
solves the most difficult problems and auto
cratically leads nations, when badly directed, to
their destruction; and when well advised, to their
aggrandizement. On this account, if it fre
quently abuses tho privilege, perverting ideas
and poisoning tho best doctrines, wc have in the
press directed by woraun a corrective of tho
same kind; because, thank God, it is still pre
served Tree from corruption, and is a wholesome
restraint in tho constant struggle which virtue
carries on against ovil passions.
These bases established, I ask, docs woman in
fluence social progress?
