In an opera (o famllinr as "The Mar her" it is iKclrx to go into the detail o( how the most fnmoim nrins were ung. The opera is full of fine melo dies and many of them were beautifully rendered, but it was not this that mnd the onern the iieies which it achieved. Itather it was the toniedv dramatic Work, sometime approaching the dan cer mark of ovei acting. It i true, but funny withal to t1 e Inst degree. In this phase of the opera Messrs. .Malatesta and Mnrdonrs were the stars. J?oth are comedians of the highest rank ,-aod not only Is Doctor B.irtolo Mr Mal- tcsta's best part, hut he i alo quite tm best actor in thi iole tliat has yet ben seen In I'liilniMphiu be.idc being fUtinl to the vocal demand, which for " buffo part are unusunllv evcre.

Galli-Curci are of Latin blood, although of different "brands," o to speak The Kosina of Mme. Barrientos is like her ice. ' delicate to the lust degree, but refined i and altogether lovelj . Uing to certain facial peculiarities of her style of sing ing, Mme Barrientos was at some natural disadvantage in a conred) part. otably in the second act. and it was not until the famous "lesson scene" in the, third net thnt she showed her true metye. In this she sang first the "Voce f jdl rrimavcra" waltz of Johann Straus and o enthusiastic was the applause that she was compelled to respond with the exquisite coloratura aria from "The Fearl of Brazil " Mme Barrientos va iu good oice. and although occasionally , overcome by the orchestrnl enthusiasm nf l Pnni ff,r, n n oltnf-atho,. finf, ' performance The Figaro of Mr Amato was rather uneen. but was geneially good The great buffo song "I.argo al Fae lotum" in the first act was nor done o well as it has been het. tho rhythm being uncertain and the enunciation not Hifficientb dear At other points in the opera Mr Amato showed to fine advantage and was good in hi acting a well as his singing DIES; HAD WOOD ALCOHOL Poison Mixture May Have Caused Man's Death TTilliam Crpler. thirty five j-eni old, of Alder i-trert near Wildey. was found unconMioiiR at Tenth nnd Tarrisli ttreets it s v lck last night by a pa trolman of the Tenth and Buttonwood streets station He was taken to Hahnemann Hopi i tal. where he died at 10. .10 o'clock i without regaining consciousness.
