MUSIC AND DRAMA. Notes of Plays and Those Who Present Them. GOSSIP FROM THK WINGS. The Mendelssohn Quintette Club and Other Attractions to Ap pear Here Shortly. Next Sunday evening a benefit will be given at the Loa Angeles tneater for the B. P. O. Elks. A play at one of the English theaters has just had to be modified because tbe actors had a superstition against the ap pearance of a peacock or itß feathers on the stage. Henry Pettitt, the successful author of English melodrama, is writing a comedy the principal scenes of which are laid in America. Mr. Pettitt contemplates a visit to this country, to study localities and customs. Zola's latest story, "The Dream," iB to be turned into comic opera by a French librettist and composer, and he has also given to another author the right of making a similar use of "The Fault cf the Abbe Mouret." Count Tolstoi's drama, The Power of Darkness, the production of which in theaters was prohibited, has been per formed privately in St. Petersburg be fore an aristocratic audience and made a profound impression. Kate Castleson has some odd notions crammed into her shapely little head. Oaa of her queerest crankisms is in re gard to eating. "I can satisfy my hunger at any time," she said to a friend, "by merely inhaling the odor." The moßt noted colored actress of the day is Henrietta Vinton Davis, of Balti more. She made her debut in Wash ington in 1883, and has been well re ceived in such roles as "Juliet," "Desdemona," "Queen Elizabeth" and "L3ah." Lottie Collins, of the Boston Howard Atheneum Company, is said to be the originator of tbe skirt dance in London. She was originally with the Gaiety Com pany and played the principal soubrette in Monte Crisio. It was in thiß burlesque that skirt dancing became a craze. According to a French critic at the Parisian gardens, Beethoven's music creates a demand for beer among the patrons, Mozart's for absinthe, Offen bach's for champagne, and Berlioz's for mineral water. But when Wagner is played everybody goes home. Henry Irving is considering an offer for a series of Shakesperean recitals with Miss Terry at the different cities of England during the summer. The scheme is to accompany them with fine music and make them the great est entertainments of the sort ever given. A fashionable New York woman says that one of the most exquisite sensations she experiences is that of sitting in an orchestra chair and knowing that her big hat shuts out the view of the stage for two or three people behind her. It is women like thir who drive men to drink —between tbe acts. The Hyers sisters in Out of Bondage will be the attraction at the Los Angeles theater on Thursday, Friday and Satur day evenings. Thia comedy-drama was written by Rev. Joseph Bradford, and is said to contain many points of interest. The company includes a number of the best colored actors on the stage. Following her Australian engagement, Mrs. Brown-Potter will make a tour of China, India and Egypt. It would not be half so bad if Mrs. Potter and Mr. Bellew would remain in India. The climate is well silked to their tempera ment, and if they should return to America they might find it rather chilly. The perennial spectacle of comedians prancing about the stage with tin kettles tied to their coat-tails has depraved the public taste in some townß, and plays with humanity and beauty in them are not welcome, provided the supoly of Paper Dolls, Wooden Apes, Soap Bubbles and Liver Sausages holds out.—[Brooklyn Eagle. A novelty was introduced in Bluebeard, Jr., at Niblo's theater, New York, re cently, which effectually supplanted the memory of Carmencita in the minds of New Yorkers. This was the "Loon Doon" dance, which is the national dance of Venezuela. It was performed by six South American dancers, who are credited with having made a sensa tion. The revival of the report that Mary Anderson is to marry and forever retire from the stage is probably without foun dation. At least there are many who will not credit it until confirmed by the actress herself. That she is engaged to Mr. Navarro and that she intends to wed that gentleman may be and probably is true. At any rate this part of the numerous bits of gossip concerning the future of Miss Anderson has not been denied. Margaret Mather has purchased Bar bier's great play, Jean d'Arc, in which Surah Bernhardt has been making such a sensation in Paris, and will produce it in tbis country next year with all the music of Gounod and on the same grand scale on which it has been given in Paris. William Young, author of Oanelon, Pen dragon, etc., has been engaged to trans late it into English blank verse. Miss Mather will appear at Hooley's early in March. Some of the newspapers are groaning and swearing because, under Justice Field's decision in the Younger case, the proprietor of a theater may exclude any body, white or black. Well, why not? A theater is as much private property as any other house, and its owner has an uaquestionable right to say whether he will admit anybody, how many, and on what conditions. The attempt of any body to enter against the owner's wish is simply an attempt at an abridgement of the owner's rights as indefensible aa an assault or a robbery. Tgnight W. S. Cleveland's minstrels will commence a week's engagement at the Grand opera house. There is a spec tacular first part, in which the stage set ting is Venetian and the end men are dressed as court jesters of the Fourteenth Century. The vocalists are attired in the tights and purple of Venetian noble men of that period, and cute little boys seated in gondolas pass back and forth in the background. A descriptive Vene tian chorus is heard in the distance just before the rising of the curtain, which discloses through heavy silk plush cur tains two little boys dressed as gondo liers at each side of the center. Each takes ihe center of a curtain in his hand, to give the appearance of raising them, when they are drawn up to the sides, forming a border and wings and disclos ing the Doge (LeonarJi Donati) year 1606, surrounded by his courtiers, in the costly raiment of that period, a profusion of gold and velvet, silk and jewels of TAB LOS ANGELES DAILY HERALD: MONDAY MORNING, Ffi&RUARY 17, 1890. rarest nature. Immediately following this courtly display of grandeur another set of different 'tinted draperies are formed into similar hangings, this time disclosing a Venetian bridge, on which are seated the trumpeters and mnsicians of the Doge, who have been summoned to the palace to lend their aid to His Excellency's festivities. At the same moment from either side of the bridge appear in motley costume, fantastic, rich and g<uidy, the Royal Jesters, to en tertain with "eloquence unadorned, and wit to madness near akin." The Mendelssohn Quintette Club will give concerts at the Los Angeles theater on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, on which occasions there will no doubt be crowded houses. The Mendelssohn Club has for years been the best organi zation of fts kind traveling over the country, and the numbers on its pro grammes are always exquisitely rendered. The club includes the following artists: Wilhelm Ohliger, violin; Manassa Ad ler, violin; Thomas Ryan, clarinette and viola; Paul Henneberg, flute and viola, and Max Droge, cello. Miss Eliz abeth Hamlin, a soprano, who has quite a reputation, accompanies the club. An exchange speaking of the club says: "It was not only the fair debutante, but the Mendelssohn Quintette Club which attracted a representative auai enc9 at Chickering hall last night. The boy who had first a new blade and then a new handle put to his jack-knife, yet maintained that it was the same knife, was in the same plight as the musical critic who preserves his allegiance to the Mendelssohn Quintette Club ever since it was the pioneer of orchestral music in B jston; but there is still one rivet of the old knife left, in the shape of the imper ishable Mr. Ryan, who has done so much for Boston's music. The club as now organized seems in excellent condition, judging by the one number played by them, a single movement from the Schu bert Quintette, op. 106, which was given with commendeble heartiness." CALIFORNIA ON WHEELS. The Territory tt Has Covered and Will cover Tbis Year. A map has b6en prepared and issued by the State Board of Trade, showing the route of the "California on Wheelß," both of last year and of this year. According to this map, in 1888-9 the expedition went East from San Fran cisco, over the Central and Union Pacific to Omaha, thence by the Northwestern to Chicago. Its route through the East was as follows: To Grand Rapids, by the Michigan Central; to Detroit, by tbe De triot, Lansing and Northern; by the Michigan Southern through Toledo, Cleveland, Erie, Buffalo, to Rochester 6.nu Albany, by the New York Central; and to Boston by the Boston and Albany. From this point the return was made to Chicago as fol lows : To New York by the New York and New England road, through Goshen, Binghampton, Jamestown, by the Lake Erie and Western to Mansfield, Ohio, and Cincinnati; thence back to Chicago by the Illinois Central through Indian apolis. From Chicago detours were made over the Wisconsin Central and Mil waukee and St. Paul, taking in Mil waukee, Oahkosh, La Crosse and other Wisconsin cities, and the return to Omaha waa made over the Chicago, Bur lington and Northern to Minneapolis and St. Paul, and thence by the Chicago, St. Paul, Minneapolis and Omaha road. The route this year as outlined on this map for the most part covers differ ent territory. Starting from San Fran cisco by the Southern Pacific, it takes in Los Angeles, and after a long run through Texas comes out at New Orleans. From there it goea north by the Texas Pacific to Texarkana; thence to St. Louis by the St. Louis and Iron Mountain road, to Kansas City by the Missouri Pacific, on to Pueblo and Denver and Colorado Springs.back by theßock Island and Paul. Pacific to St. Joseph, and north to St. The Chicago. St Paul, Minneapolis and Omaha road then carries the cars to Duluth, Ashland and down to Chicago. Next comes the Baltimore and Ohio line, which takes in Columbus, Pittsburg, Washington and Baltimore, ending at New York. The return to Chicago be gina on the Delaware, Lackawana and Western, which ends at Buffalo. A portion of Canada is covered by the Grand Trunk, and the Michigan Central carries the exhibit into Chicago. From there on the route is marked "Projected," as it has not been finally determined upon. It is over the Wisconsin Central to St. Paul, and thence to Oregon by the Northern Pacific and to San Francisco by the Oregon and California and Cen tral Pacific. OFFICER WRIGHT'S FUNERAL.

For bronchitis or any lung disease this portion of the San Gabriel valley cannot be ourpaßsed. Located as it is in the eastern end of the San Gabriel valley, on the Santa Fe railroad, twenty-eight miles from Lob Angeles and directly at the base of tbe Sierra Madre mountains, where frost is never known, it com mands a view of 130 miles south and southwest. Ships can be plainly seen in San Pedro harbor.' Acre property is fast changing hands, purchasers buying to plant orange trees. Land in this section is at present very reasonable; the best of orange land is selling at $130 per acre to $150, with good water rights; thousands of tons of water go to waste for the want of a reservoir to store it in.
