"The Bostonians" to Give Eight Operas
Here This Week—"Later On" at
the Los Angeles.
Tonight the Bostonians commence a
week's engagement at the Grand opera
house, in the new opera comique, Don
Quixote, by Reginald de Koven. This
opera company was here about a year
ago, and at that time it was said to be
one of the best organizations that had
ever visited the city. The membership
of the company has not been changed in
the meantime, except for the better, and
if the reports in the San Francisco pa
pers are true the engagement will be one
of the best, musically considered, that
Los Angeles has ever had. It is said of
the company that it is very even, that
there are no poor singers, and that the
special effort of the managers has always
been to have the least important parts
as well taken as the leading characters.
During its stay here the company will
give eight operas, including Don Quixote,
Pygmalion and Galatea, Musketeers, Su
zette, Bohemian Girl, Mignon, Fatinilza,
aud Fra Diavolo. Those in the title roles
are Miss Marie Stone,the leading soprano,
DON QUIXOTE.
Miss Juliette Corden,who shares leading
soprano roles with her, and Miss
Carlotta Maconda, who has ob
tained many flattering notices. The
leading contralto is Jessie Bartlett Davis,
who created such an impression here on
her former visit. She is ably seconded
by Josephine Bartlett. Tom Karl, the
tenor, is too well known by reputation
to need special mention. Tlie company
also includes Geo. Frothingham, basso ;
H. C. Barnabee, comedian; Eugene
Cowles, basso; W. H. Mac Donald,
tenor, and Edwin W. Hoff, tenor, and
the chorus is said to be exceedingly well
trained. The sale of seats has been
large, and the season will be one of the
best this year.
Notes.
Alice Harrison is now playing in The
City Directory.
Blue Jean is the title of a new play
by Joseph Arthur, author of The Still
Alarm.
Dion Boucicault is writing a new play
for Sol Smith Russell. The hero is a
tailor.
Sarah Bernhardt is to make a tour of
the world beginning in this country
next September.
The marriage of Theodore Thomas to
Miss Rose Fay, of Chicago, will take
place May 12th.
Miss Juliette Corden has a fascinating
Bolero and Spanish dance in Don Quixote,
which she does admirably.
Jessie Bartlett Davis, as "Dorothea,"
has two delightful numbers in Don
Quixote, which Bhe sings admirably.
H. C. Barnabee, Josephine Bartlett
and George Frothingham have an amus
ing refrain in Don Quixote:
"A married man may be full of guile,
But a married woman mayn't."
It is said that at a performance of
Ibsen's play, A Doll's llonse,\n Philadel
phia, half the audience were nurses and
children.
How music spreads among the masses
can be imagined from the estimate that
in Sheffield there are about 600 artisans
who play the violin.
Miss Hope Booth, who has the good
fortune to be the daughter of a rich and
indulgent father, will star next season
in That Young Girl from Georgia.
DOyly Carte is reported to have sunk
!f5u,000 in his efforts to force The Gon
doliers upon New York theater-goers.
John Stetson has also lost a lot of money
on the opera which he facetiously calls
The Gone Dollar.
The latest recruit to the ranks of so
ciety stars is the Baroness Julie De-
Fontenilliat, a sister of Mrs. William K.
Vanderbilt. She has been studying
under Dion Boucicault, and is to play in
comedy. She has separated from her
husband, but as she wishes only to put
her titled name against some manager's
good money, she will probably not be
seen this season.
In Madrid when an actor has a benefit
his admirers send to the theater little
gifts, such as canes, slippers, game, and
such trifles, just as if it were a donation
party, and the employees hand these
gifts around among the audience for in
spection, while next day a complete list
of them is printed in the papers.
The queen and the Princess Louise
(marchioness of Lome) play the piano

forms with zeal. The Queen of Italy is
well-known as a masterly pianiste ; the
Empress of AuHtria charms every one
with her zither. The Empress of Japan
plays the national Japanese instrument,
the "roto," a zither of somewhat large
dimensions. The Queen of Roumania
plays the harp and piano with equal
grace and facility. King George of
Greece plays on castanets and wine
glasses with the most astonishing skill,
with the same facility he playß the Hun
garian cymbal, which the Crown Prince
Sophie is also studying under the guid
ance of two Hungarian virtuosi, and
Prince Henry of Prussia is a composer
and plays the piano and violin. —[Ladies'

-V new era of things is about to be
established in theatrical matters at San
Bernardino, Frank W. Conant having
purchased a half interest in the manage
ment of the theater there and become
the partner of Major H. C. Wyatt. Mr.
Conant will make Los Angeles his head
quarters, but will visit San Bernardino
whenever necessary for the interest of
the shows he intends to book for that
city. The new firm expresses a deter
mination to book only the best com
panies for San Bernardino, and to take
them there as often as the people desire.
The theater will be conducted in a
thorough business-like manner. It is
very similar in appearance and fittings
to the Grand opera house before it was
replanned. In connection with San
Bernardino Messrs. Conant & Wyatt will
book companies for the theater at River
side, and they will take a special interest
in furnishing the residents of both cities
with the same opportunities for seeing
the most important attractions that Los
Angeles people have. San Bernardino
and Riverside are to be congratulated on
the change.
The Cincinnati Times-Star tells this :
During a performance of Richelieu by
the Booth-Modjeska company not long
ago there was an episode which pointed
a moral, if it did not adorn the tale, and
caused a ripple of merriment. It will be
remembered that when Richelieu pro
poses to read his verses to Joseph the
latter remarks aside : "Strange that so
great a statesman should be so bad a
poet." "Eh, Joseph," says the cardi
nal, "what were you saying?" Joseph
replies: "I said it was strange that so
great a statesman should be so sublime
a poet," "No, he didn't?" piped a
voice in the audience near the stage. It
was from a little girl, who then stood up
and continued: "The priest has lied!
He said it the other way I"
Sardou has had an attack of whoop
ing-cough, and has been unable to con
tinue work upon his Cleopatra, the
production of which at the Porte-Saint-
Martin has been postponed in conse
quence, much to the wrath of Sarah
Bernhardt. The French playwright an
nounces that he will make no use of
Shakspeare's play, which he seems to
consider beneath his notice.
Mary Anderson's intimate London
friends claim to have received positive
information from tlie lady herself that,
although she will soon take a husband,
she will not abandon the stage. Miss
Anderson's old dresser, now attached to
a London theater, is said to have been
notified by the actress that her services
will again be required next season.
Mme. Ristori's brother, Cesare, has
founded in Turin a theater where ama
teurs who want to become professional
players can practice on their friends and
be judged by experienced players, and
in Milan a society has been formed for
the purpose of bringing out plays by
young authors who cannot get a hearing
from managers.
NOTES FOR THE LADIES.
Gossip Concerning Notables and Other
Things.
Perfumes are worn any place and every
place but on the handkerchief.
A school for training women in jour
nalism has been opened in Westminster
bridge road by a couple of English girls
named Hill.
Mrs. Amelia P>. Edwards, in a recent
lecture in New York, said in substance
that Egypt was woman's Utopia. Wives
held the purse-strings and gave their
husbands board and lodging.
The Queen Regent of Spain rises early,
takes a cold bath every morning, even in
winter, and performs her toilet with the
help of one of her waiting maids. She
usually dresses very plainly, and never
wears jewelry except on ceremonial oc
casions.
The Duchess of Marlborough gets
along with three street dresses a year.
For clear, cool days she wears silver
gray cloth; her storm dress is a home
spun of dark blue, and for a light
weight costume, to be worn without
jacket, she has a dark-brown twill.
Miss Frances Willard cares so little for
style that she never has more than one
dress at a time, and does not get a new
one until the old one is worn out. She
is happily indifferent to the seasons, and
her velvet bonnet often gets sunburned
and her straw hat snowed on.
The grand contralto of former days,
Madame Alboni, celebrated her seventy
fourth birthday recently at her house in
the Cours-la-Keine, Paris. Notwith
standing her years Madame Alboni sang
the air from The Prophet with a powerful
dramatic sentiment and a superb voice
that recalled the brilliant triumphs of
this incomparable "Fides."
Miss Elaine Goodale, the poet, who is
superintendent of Indian Schools in
Dakota, will live principally in a wagon
next summer. She has been supplied
by General Morgan, Commissioner of
Indian Affairs, with a covered wagon and
a pair of horses to travel from school to
school through Dakota. She will be at
tended on her travels by two Indians —a
man and his wife.
Mme. Nordica has a beautiful home
just out of London, surrounded by a
large garden. When she is in it she
keeps house, weeds and trims her flower
beds, entertains company, hunts, rides,
sails and plays tennis. She has trophies
from every city she has ever sung in, and
the fittings of her house are tilled with
bric-a-brac and ornaments, the gifts of
admirers and friends. She has three
pianos in her house, each of which she
uses every day.
The Empress of Austria has caused
her wedding dress to be cut up and made
into a set of priestly garments for the
church of St. Mathew in Pesth. The
dress was of white brocade with silver
threads, embroidered all over with
beautiful garlands of roses in silver.
Her bridal wreath encircles an em
broidered picture of the Virgin, which
is to be hung up in the Loretto chapel of
the same church, which the Empress
selects for her devotions. The garments
will be used for the services in honor of
the Virgin Mary in May.
If you wish to keep your skin smooth,
do nbt, no matter what the cranks on
the subject of health advise, dry it with
a rough towel. Instead use a tine dam
ask one, and use it not only thoroughly
but discreetly, for your face is not cov
ered with parchment nor are your eyea
atone. To know ho.. to "dabble" the;
face with a fine cloth as a method of
drying is a means of preserving the del
icate appearance of the skin not often
thought of. Mme. Bonaparte, whose
skin was velvet and peach-like at ninety,
used to say that women treated their
skins exactly as if they were as thick as
that of a rhinoceros, and to this she at
tributed premature wrinkles and loss of
delicacy in shape of the features and
coloring of the skin.
Miss Sallie Hargous and Miss Amy
Bend, reigning beauties in New York,
have been the pioneers of a revival of the
old custom of floral decorations in the
hair, and the first-named in particular
always appears at the opera wearing a
wreath of white flowers. Mrs. Cornelius
Vanderbilt did the same one night, and
Mrs. Eadenburg has inaugurated the vic
tory wreath of the Roman Emperors with
great success. Mrs. Sloane showed on
the first Patti night how becoming os
trich tips are as a coiffure, and her ex
ample is one that could be easily followed
by slight, and in particular by dark,
women.
At a supper given in Baltimore every
thing was done by electricity. The
pressing of an electric button notified
the band to play, the dancers to dance.
In the supper-room was a track of small
brass rails, on which was an electric car
or basket about a foot long and thirty
inches wide. This car conveyed the
viands from the butler's apartment.
The butler placed the courses in silver
trays upon the car and sent them along
the electric railway. The car stopped
long enough in front of each plate for
each guest to help himself. The car
was also supplied with electric bells.
Under the tables were music-boxes op
erated by electricity which played dur
ing the supper. Not a drop of coffee or
a bit of ice cream was spilled by the
electrical waiter.
Looking Backward.
If all men were as fully equipped with
foresight as they are with hindsight, in
numerable mistakes might be avoided.

Inherited Scrofula.
Swift's Specific (S. S. S.) cured my little
boy of hereditary scrofula, which broke out
all over his face. For a year ho had suffered,
and I had given up all hopes of his recovery,
when at length I decided to use S. S. S. Af
ter using a few bottles he was entirely cured.
Not a symptom now remains of tho disease.
This was three years ago.
MRS. T. L. MATHERS, Mathersville, Miss.
In the early part of last year I had a vio
lent attack of rheumatism, from which I
waa confined to my bed for over three months
and at times was unable to turn myself in
bed, or even raise the cover. A nurse had to
be in constant attendance day and night. I
was so feeble that what little nourishment I
took had to be given me with a spoon. Af
ter calling in the best local physicians, and
trying all other medicines without receiving
any benefit, I was Induced by friends to try
Bwift's Specific (S. 8. S.) I discontinued all
other medicines, and took a course of S. S.S.
thirteen small bottles, which affected a com
plete and permanent cure.
