THEr TRIED DUNKING.
The New Fitcber Did Fairly Well, bat
Was Wild.
rfrXCIAI. TZLIGHAM TO THE PISrATCH.1
Washington, May 23. The 'Washing
Ions won their first game from the Pitts
burgs by bitting tbe ball safely when men
were on bases. President Itimick and
Manager Horace Phillips had a short con
sultation before the game and they decided
to pnt Pitcher Dunning in against the Sena
tors. He was quite wild at times, sending
ing seven men to bases on balls. The Sena
tors were fortunate in placing their few hits
where they would do the most good. The
Pittsburgs gave Dunning fair support, but
they could not bit Pearson's peculiar deliv
ery to any advantage.
The feature of the visitors' playing was a
fly catch back of second by Sunday, after a
long run from deep left field. The ball should
have been taken by either Dunlap or Smith,
but they appeared afraid of it.
SUNDAY SASHED IN
between them and secured the ball amid great
applause. Pittsburg scored its only run in tbe
second Inning, when Carroll and Maul were
sent ttfluscon balls. Carroll played well away
fr m second Sase.lind Umpire FesBenden who
was judging the base plays, stood Immediately
behind tbe bag. Connie Mack mistook the
umpire for a benator, and threw the ball to
second, hoping to catch Carroll napping. The
result was the ball went out to center field and
Carroll scored. Sboch cut off further run
gctting in that inning by making a difficult
catch of Dunlap's low fly to left field, and hold
ing Maul on third.
In tbe eighth the Pittsburgs came near scor
ing again. Sunning hit to Wise, who stopped
the ball, but
SLIPPED IN THE MUD
and made a wild throw to first. Sunday
reached first on a clever bunt Wflmot cap
tured Hanlon's short fly behind third, and Beck
lev filled the bases on a single to right. Car
roll then popped up an easy fly to John Mor
rill, who made a bluff at catching it, b -t pur
posely allowed the ball to bound once. He
quickly fielded the ball to Mack at tbe plate,
forcing out. Dunning and Mack threw to
Sweeney, doubling up Sunday at third. The
play was made so slick that the visitors were
nonplussed for the instant. Of course John
Morrill was tbe hero of tbe hour.
The Senators took the lead at the jump, and
were never headed. Hoy went to base on balls,
stole second, and was advanced to third on a
passed ball, and scored on Wilmot's single over
second. The latter stole second cleverly and
went to third on Shoch's sacrifice, but was put
out at tbe plate trying to score on livers' hit to
Kuehne. Wise hit safely over second.
SWEENEr CLEANED THE BASES
by a long drive to right field for two bases, but
he was thrown out while trying to stretch the
hit into a three-bagger. The result was three
runt. Sweeney scored in the fourth on an
crrer and a single by Morrill. In tbe fifth Wil
raot and Enoch took first on balls: each stole a
base and both scored on Myers' single over
third.
Shoch's fielding was the feature of the Sena
tors' plav. He threw Dunning ont at first on
an appaVently safe hit; besides, he made two
very difficult catches. Wjlmot and Myers
divided the batting honors and Morrill did
great work at first. Fearton, the Manchester
lad, pitched a magnificent game, holding tno
Plttsburgers down to three scratch bits, while
he struck out seven men. He was frequently
encouraged bv cheers from the crowd, and he
deserved it. as he pitched with the skill of a
veteran. The score:

LATROBE WANTS DEITZ,
Tho Pitcher of tho Our Boys In Great De
mand, It is stated that the officials of the Latrobe
ball club are trying to secure Pitcher Dietz, of
tbe Our Boys clnb, to replace Beam who is now
with tbe Pittsburgs. It is not likely, however,
that Deiti will join the Latrobe team and he
and his friends want him tried in a thorough
going professional team.
Deitz's record is a good one and the members
of the club he is now in deem him the
best pitcber among all the amateurs
in Western Pennsylvania. His manager con
siders him good enough for the National
League. Last season he pitched some remark
able games against good clubs.

New York, May 23. The greatest mone
tary prize of the spring racing season, the
great American stakes, worth S20.000 to the
winner, was decided at Gravesend this aft
ernoon, and St. Carlo, the craok 2-year-old,
and owned by the banker August Belmont,
was the victor. He, with the others, was
nearly 20 minutes at the post waiting for
the chance of his life of distinguishing him
self, and when at last he came he was fully
equal to the occasion. His was no hollow
victory. It was disputed to the very line.
When Garrison called on him in the last
sixteenth of a mile he jumped forward so
promptly that then nothing but a fall could
have prevented his success. Garrison pi
loted him in a masterly fashion, and when be
reached the goal he was nearly three lengths
before his nearest competitor. It was a gallant
race.
First race, one and one-sixteenth miles
Starters, Madstone, Sam Wood, Jay F. Dee,
Longstreet, Zephyrus. Clarissa. Zephyrus won
in 1:49, Madstone second, Longstreet third.
The weather was quite pleasant, and though
there was a stiff breeze blowing, it came from a
quarter which caused the grand stand to break
its force. The track was in a very fair condi
tion and so solid on top that it was sprinkled
on tbe near quarter stretch to prevent dust.
Second race, one and one-sixteenth miles
Starters, Falcon, Toronto, Biggonette, The
Bourbon, Bordelatse, Brother Ban, Diadem,
Barrister, H. Bohemian. Brother Ban won in
1:49, The Bourbon second, Bohemian third.
THE GREAT EVENT.
Third race, the great American sweepstakes
for 2-year-olds (foals of 1SS7) A sweepstakes
of $50 each for horses entered as yearlings by
April 25, 1888, or only $20 if declared ont by Au
gust 13, 1888. for horses entered as 2-year-olds
by January 1, 1SS9, when the stakes shall close.
SlOO each, or 50 if declared out by May 1, 18S9,
starters to pay $250 additional; the club to add
$5,000 and to guarantee that the stakes shall be
worth $20,000; the second horse to receive JL500,
and the third horse $500 of the added money;
five furlongs. Starters:
Horses. Jockeys.
Houston. Taylor.

Ballaret. Hamilton.
Devotee W. Donohue.
Mucilage. Whyburn.
Elkton Godfrey.
Chaos. McCarthy.
Homeopathy. Llttlefleld.
The 14 contestants presented a beautiful
sight as they were ranged before the starter on
the back stretch. They m.inenvered at tbe
post for quite awhile and ran out several times
before they got the flag.
A dozen times
NOW thet'be off!
was shouted, and as often tbe announcement
was delusive. At last it was made in earnest,
and 700 pairs of eyes saw the LaFavorita colt
start ahead of tbe lot, with Torso next, Chaos
third and St. Carlo fourth. Chaos immediately
darted across the track to the rail with Torso
at his shoulder. Tbe latter was first past the
half mile post hail a length before Chaos, who
was a full length In front of Belmont, who had
Eccola colt and Honston at his saddle girth.
They presented a very beautiful picture as they
rounded tbe upper turn and came into the
home stretch. Torso was first into the straight,
a length before Ballaret, who led Chaos aneck,
St. James and St. Carlo heading the others im
mediately behind.
Neither whip nor spur was spared in the rnn
in. A fortune was at its further end, and every
jockey rode as though life depended on his get
ting past tbe judges before his fellows. At the
last furlong post it was seen that the great
prize lay at tbe mercy of Ballaret, St. Carlo or
Torso. Then it was that Garrison rose to the
grandenr of the occasion. He now bent him
self to his task with heart and soul. Another
sixteenth of the distance was passed and then
his ears were treated to the welcome music,
COME HOME MY ST. CARLO.
And come home he did, in a manner that made
his backers' breasts swell with joy. Another
shout hailed his victory as he dashed by tbe
imaginary line a winnerby nearly three lengths
in 1.-02 Ballaret second, was a length and a
half before Torso, third.
The fractional time was: First quarter in
025, the three-eighths in 0:37, and the half mile
in 0:50. The remaining horses came in in the
following order: Drizzle, Chaos, Devotee,
Houston, Kelp, colt, Homeopathy, Mucilage,
St. James, Eccola, colt, Elkton and La Favor
ita, colt. The mutuals paid S32 05 straight and
Sll C5 for a place. Ballaret paid $9 80.
Fourth race, St. James' Hotel stakes, one
and a quarter miles Starters: Elkwoud, Han
over, Diablo. The resnltof this race showed
that while Hanover was due for seven furlongs
or less with ordinary horses, he can no longer
go a distance with the cracks of the day. Tbe
trio Were sent off with Elkwood in front, Diablo
next and Hanover last, all heads apart. Before
they had made two jumps, Elkwood was stirred
tip with the whip. Hanover took tbe lead, and
came by the stands two lengths before Diablo,
who was the same distance in front of Elk
wood. On the lower tarn, Hanover was easd
a bit, and at tbe quarter post Diablo was but
a length behind him. Half way up the back
stretch Diablo moved up and took the lead
without difficulty.
HANOVER WAS BEATEN.
As they rounded the upper turn he ran away
from Hanover with ease, and came into tbe
home stretch six full lengths before him. It
was all over but the shouting. Diablo raced
home at his ease and won by half a dozen
lengths In 2.-09K. Hanover only got tbe place
through the hardest of riding on Taylor's part,
he sparing neitner whip nor sour to get it.
Fifth race, five-eighths of a mile Starters:

Boston, May 23.-The spring annual regatta
of tbe Harvard Canoe Club was held on the
Charles river basin this afternoon. The
weather was not favorable for sailing, though
the paddling events ware made more successful

Union Boathouse to tbe new Harvard bridge.
There was a large number of spectators along
Beacon street and at the finish.

THE VALKYRIE BEATEN.
Dnnravcn's Ynclit Knocked Ont by Time
Allowance. ,
London, May 23. The Earl of Dnnraven's
boat came in first yesterday but just missed
taking the third prize.
The Deerhound, another new cutter that was
launched last Thursday, was first by time al
lowance. From tbe yachtsman's point of -view the
weather was unfavorable, there having been
an absence of wind, and it was m consequence
of this that the officers of the day decided to
shorten the conrse to about 83 miles. It was a
irrand struggle between theYarana and the
Valkyrie all the way, and half way on tbe run
home the cutters were dead level. The Valky
rie then drew away and came in first by nearly
five minutes.
Irex made a poor show, but Deerhound took
first prize and was only ten minutes behind the
leader.
The competitors were Mohawk, Vreda, Yar
ana, Deerhound, Foxhound, Valkyrie and Irex.
They Were Fooled.
Louisville, May 23. Telegraph operators,
who for years have used in betting on races
Iirivate information obtained from "tips,"
andied by them in the course of their duties,
got a heavy dump here last week. Anderson
M. Waddill. the well-known operator, sent a
message to Nashville asking a friend to put up
500 on one horse and all the winnings on
another in a succeeding race. This was in
tended to catch the boys. Tbo first horse, as
Waddill expected, won. By that time the word
had got out and the operator crowd plunged
heavily on the second horse, which ran un
placed. A Chnnce for Local Peds.
Arrangements have been made for a 12-hour
go-as-you-please pedestrian contest, to take
place in the London Theater on Decoration
Day. There will be three cash prizes, and while
the race is open to the world, every encourage
ment will bo given to the local talent. The
race will start at 12 o'clock Thursday at noon
and finish at midnight. It will be an oppor
tunity for local aspirants to try themselves and
probably win some money.
The Vnlkyrlb Wins a Race.
LONDON, May 23. The cutter Valkyrie to
day competed in a race against the Irex and
Tarana. The proposed conrse was from Graves-1
end around the Mouse light ship and back.
Owing to the absence of wind, however, they
only went to the Nore and back. The finish
was a drifting match. The Valkyrie won
easily.

they cried after one individual who stopped
long enough to crack a joke with them.
It is noticeable that many people go to the
festival quite early. Long before the perform
ance begins tbe crowds can be seen moving
leisurely along Dnquesne way and Fenn avenue
TOWABD THE POINT.
The Allegheny looks beautiful these days,
and the scullers darting through the water with
their long, narrow boats aro watched with in
terest by tbe ladles. To many tbe new
Exposition building is a novelty, and much
time is spent by the sightseers surveying it in
all its parts. Others, like Emerson, whose
chief joy was to go to church early and wait
until the congregation and minister had come
in, are on hand with plenty of time to spare;
but it Is spent profitably in scrutinizing the
people as they enter. There are, iudeed, a
thousand and one little things that will attract
the attention of even the most casual observer
at one of these May musical concerts.
EMMA INTERVIEWED.
The Fair Diva Says She's Jnst 27 Much
Pleased With Pittsburg Tbo First
Matinee a General Success ,
How It Looked by Day.
There is always something about the
broad glare of daylight that detracts. Lit
tle faults are shown in its cold stare that are
not hidden, but softened into beauty at
night, NO lover could wax eloquent in day
light, and his soulful utterances would be
forced, if they were even shown at all.
There was something of this feeling appar
ently at tbe festival yesterday afternoon: but it
could not last. At first the prospect seemed
actually uninviting. The ugly bare rafters of
the bam-like building stared coldly down, and
the many-hued draperings about the boxes
o oked almost vulgar.
As tbe people began to pour in, however, all
this was changed. Ushers flew about like tops
to serve the gaily-dressed visitors, and as rows
upon rows were quietly seated, an air of cheer
fulness began to pervade everything, and the
entire building looked as it should upon the
occasion of tbe first matinee and, by the way,
one of the prettiest successes of the whole
week.
A FASHIONABLE AUDIENCE.
As to the exact number there, no one knows
it was comfortably filled, and thatwas sufficient,
for audience and performers, the former lack
ing nothing in appreciation and the latter
nothing in execution.
The well-dressed audience was composed
principally of ladles and children; it was in
fact tbe usual musical matinee audience, with
added numbers and dress and beauty to make
the occasion what it should be, a thoroughly
enjoyable and flatteringly successful event
That it was a Wagner concert detracted
nothing from its success. There are some peo
ple who can enjoy Wagner, and probably there
were some there yesterday, for proverbially cold
Pittsburg doesn't encore and? applaud to an
ovation, unless appreciation, if not perfect un
derstanding, is there.
Tbe performers seemed to be in the very
mood for good work, and Franlein Juch was
captured for a moment at the stage entrance.
wiiiie an unusuauy urave man asxea tne radi
ant "woman whose last tones were being ap
plauded so heartily how in the world she pro
nounced her own name,
"I pronounce it Yuc'" said she, "with a
short sound of 'u' jnst like the double 'o' in
brook.' "
"And how old are you?"
A DELICATE QUESTION
"Isn't that rather a delicate question" Inter
rupted the lady's brother.
"It shows how much we are all Interested."
"Well" with a laugh "I will tell you truly,
for I have nothing to hide, I don't look to be
21,doI?"
"You most certainly do not"
"Well" with a brilliant smile 'T am just 27."
This was rather turning the tables on the
paralyzed press; but a laugh all around ad
justed matters beautifully, and tbe favorite
prima donna went on to say that she was
greatly pleased wllh Pittsburg, and had always
liked the place and people, and she hoped
Pittsburg would always treat her as generously
as at present
Several others drew around, and, after the
lady had withdrawn, a general talk ensued as
to tbe flattering snecess of the great event
This then drifted to a discussion as to the abil
ities of Manager Locke, with most charming
results. The 'opinion of these foreign musi
cians was expressed forcibly, and, all agreed
upon It Manager Locke is one of the best
liked, most successful and capable managers
in musical affairs. The gentlemen said, with
out qualification, they would play for him
when they would play for no one else, and that
he was always able to secure the very best
singers, where others Would fail, because bis
reputation for honor and capacity are so well
known.
All this will sound grateful to Pittsbnrgers,
who have (Certainly taken a fancy to this gen
tleman, and who will be glad to see credit given
to whom credit is due.
THE WAGNER MATINEE.
Spirited and Effected Orchestral Work Mrs.
Hcrbert-Foerstcr's Opportunity The
Spinning Scene A Grand Duet
by Miss Juch and Mr.
Campnnarl.
Before taking up yesterday's concerts
some amends should be tendered for the un
accountable oversight through which the
review of Wednesday evening's concert ap
peared minus an intended important para
graph treating specifically of the orchestral
numbers. Mr. Siedl and his players had
all to themselves a number of the
richest selections in that overpower
ing programme. There were the three
overtures Mendelssohn's "MIdsummerNlght's
Dream,.' Weber's "Oberon" and Wagner's
"Tiistan und Isolde" delightful works, each
in its own fashion, and almost as representa
tive of their department as were the three trreat
soprano scenas of theirs. The list farther in
cluded the lovely "Siegfried Idyll," written by
Wagner to celebrate tbe birth of his son, Sieg
fried; an exceedingly brilliant transcription of
Liszt's Polonaise in E major, and;.Saint-Saens
musicianly and strikingly effective ballet
music from "Henry VIH." This festival rec
ord would be wofully incomplete without ro
ferringto the generally admirable performance
of these interesting pieces on Wednesday
evening.
THE WAGNER MATINEE
yesterday began with several selections from
"Tannhauser." The familiar overture itself
complete music drama in miniature was
given with great effect in tbe main, though
thero was some raggedness in certain higher
passages for the violin's divisi, and the brasses
in carrying the triumphant pilgrims' air toward
the close failed to note the marked change
from the triplet eighths to tbe quarter with
two eighths. These may servo as instances of
tho species of criticism that might be made
upon much of the orchestral work: and yet it
is matter for highest praise that Mr. Seidl bas
succeeded with a composite body of players in
producing such spirited and effective work
throughout and in covering so many delicate
details of execution, so many artistic niceties
of interpretation. Tbo same general remark
applies to the "Parsifal" prelude, the "YVala
webon" from "Siegfried" and the "Kaiser
lnarsch." A special word of praise was earned
by the thrilling effectiveness of the "Flvlng
Dutchman" overture, and by the admirably
smooth and soft accompaniments to the "Tann
hauser" soloi.
The first of these was that noble silntatory,
"Dich thenre Halle," which gave Mrs. Her-bert-Foerster
her first good opportunity to dis
play her strong, clear soprano onran. and her
energetic declamatory method. Wolfram's ex
quisitely beautiful song to the evening star
was very well given by Mr. Campanari, whose
admirable legato singing bad only tho fault of
a too frequent use of the slur. Miss Juch in
terpreted the
INEFFABLY TENDER TBAYEB
of Elizabtlh with pure and sympathetic tone
and a rare spirit of devotionality.
Besides the overture, two important scenes
were taken from the "Flying Dutchman.',
The spinning scene remarkable alike for lyric
charm and dramatic construction brought out
some very fair singing from the women's
chorus and from Miss Helene von Doenboff,
the contralto, who took the lesser part of
Mary. Mrs. Herbert Foerster's delivery of
tbe strikingly original ballad was rather too
energetic and abrupt though this same In
tensity lent much effect to her closing measures
with the chorus. The prime feature of the
vocal programme was the great duet from
act II between Benta (Miss Juch) and The
Dutchman (Mr, Campanari). This intensely
dramatic scene Is an interesting specimen of
Wagner's transition period, presenting a re
markable combination of the old with tbe now
style. It Is, moreover, very long and terribly
trying to the voices. But both singers rose to
tbe occasion nobly, drawing most lavishly on
their vocal resources and singing with an
emotional intensity that made tbe performance
positively electrifying a result that the
spirited assistance of the orchestra materially
assisted. C.W.B,

THE DELUGE.
A Masterly Rendition of Salnt-Saena' Can
tata Miss Ans Der One's Interpreta
tion of Beethoven's Emperor
Perottl'sHIgh C An Even
Ins; of Melody.
The evening programme comprised a very
miscellaneous miscellany, followed by Salnt
Saens cantata, "The Deluge." The
most important number of the first
part was Beethoven's "Emperor" concerto (In
E flat No. 5; composed, 1807), an almost ideal
example of this department of composition.
Miss Ans der Ohe gave it an admirable Inter
pretation on the whole, though one could
see in it some room for further growth toward
tbe lofty standards of Beethoven. Noteworthy
were tbe wonderfully graded diminuendo of
tho extended octavo passage in tbe first move
ment and the brilliant handling of the
rondo; in the two first movements, espedaUy,
the player's style was chaste and earnest
showing a proper self-uenlal in avoiding the
more sensational effects of tbe modern school,
Mr. Fischer sang hysiarVt strong dramatic
scene from Weber's "Euryanthe" in a thor
oughly artistic manner, though still evidently
a trifle hoarse. The familiar "Salve Diraora"
from "Faust" containing a high C, Mr.
Perotti was enabled by means of it to arouse
another audience to a wild degree of excite
ment which would not be quelled until he
came out and sang some more high
notes in "La Donna e Mobile."
Aside from these top tones which
.the frisky little tenor delivers with such amaz
ing ease and emprestement, it is difficult to see
wherein he can lay much claim to consideration
by lovers of music The manner and method of
his singing Is anything but artistic The first
Eart of the great "TeU" trio was sung by Mr.
atnpanari and Mr. Fischer and shouted by
Mr. Perotti. More excitement
The exceedingly brilliant ana characteristic
rhapsodie by Edonard Lalo (a Spaniard domi
ciled in Paris; not a Frenchman) gave the or
chestra a chance to do some of its best
work. In the "Lohengrin" scene (Elsa
entering the minster) a misunderstanding as to
which of the divided choruses was to start off
was the cause of an utterly ineffective perform
ance. The Saint-Saens cantata, like Mr. Nicholl's
work on the preceding evening, was handi
capped by tbe lateness of the hour; 11:15
passed before It was finished, and the con
stant passing out of a large number of
persons spoiled many fine effects. "The
Deluge" is chiefly an orchestral work; con
ceived In the same romantic vein as Saint
Saens' better known symphonic poems and
manifesting the same great mastery of modern
instrumental resources. Mr. Seidl and bis or
chestra produced a tremendous effect in
the stormy descriptive passages. The
chorus parts are of nnusual difficulty and were
not effectively given. Mrs. Herbert-Foerster
and Mr. Ricketson did very satisfactory work
m tho solo portions. C. W. S.
AN EVENING WITH WAGNER.
Selections From the Great Master's Best
Works on To-Nlgbt's Programme.
The strongest miscellaneous programme
of Wagner's music yet given in Pittsburg
is offered at the festival this evening. The
chorus has nothing whatever to do, but the
increasingly efficient orchestra will have
its hands full all evening in handling
a number of the richest and most elaborate
scores ever penned. Five of the chief soloists
In the festival list appear in parts that
with only one or two exceptions, they are
especially mica 10 interpret; ana, witn
the authoritative and masterly conductorship
of the master's protege, Anton Seidl, over it
all, the evening promises rare things for all
admirers and students of the Titan of the mod
ern music-drama.
It is in his later period, when his revolution
ary art-theories had reached full development,
that Wagner is chiefly represented to-night
"Lohengrin" (completed 1818; produced 1850 by
Liszt at Weimar) was the final achievement
of the long preparatory period; tbe last work
done before undertaking tbe tremendous
series of music dramas known as the
'Nibelungen Ring," which, though inter
rupted by the composition of "Tristan
nnd Isolde" (finished in 1859) and "Die Mels
tersinzer" (1867). occupied the master's
mind for the next quarter of a century. The
two extracts from "Lohengrin" this evening
are the etherial, angelic prelude and Elsa 3
beautiful narration of the dream in which she
beheld the holy knight who was to be her cham
pion in the ensuing combat Miss Juch will
sing it
Though "Tannhauser" preceded "Lohen
grin" by some three years, and in its original
shape belongs to tbe preparatory period, the
bacchanale and the duet ( Yen tu.Mrs. Lehmann
Kalisch; Tannhauser, Mr. Kalisch) to be given
to-night were entirely rewritten for the disas
trous Paris production in IB6L While the sub-
ject matter is from tbe original score,
the orchestration and general treatment
present the Wagner of l,Tristan" and the
"Nibelungen." The brilliant and tuneful
march to be played to-night is evidently from
the earlier period.
The rest of the programme is from the
"Walknere," the second, and tbe "Goetter
daemmerung," the last of the four
dramas of the "Nibelungen-Ring." Mls3
Juch and Mr. Perotti will sing the
beantiful love duet from the former, and Mr.
Fischer will give Wotan't farewell
from the latter. Siegfried's death scene
by Mr. Kalisch, and Bruennhilde's im
molation, by Mrs. Lehmann-Kalisch, close the
programme most worthily. C. W. S.
THE 1IIN0E NOTES.
Items Incidental to the Matlaeo and Third
Night's Concert.
Everybody was there.
So was his lovely sister.
Alas! Conductor Seidl had a bat on.
Some say Campanari takes his notes "just as
easy."
It's real nice to see singers applaud each
other!
Von Doenhoff looked like an Egyptian
Queen.
How tastefully a woman can dress, if she
wants to.
The intermission is a blessing to girls who
must talk.
"SAY, Mister, is this the Musical, or the
Smoky City?"
Juch eyed the conductor as if his baton were
a rod of correction.
Not a foot was stamped in applause; but how
the gloves did suffer!
AS the young man told his girl "I wanted
to be overture side,"
Wonder if some of us didn't "just pretend"
to like Wagner's music?
Will tbe chorus please gets its picture taken
and mail ns one dozen?
What a glamor nlgbt does cast over a scene
almost gaudy in daylight
"WHEBEhave you been?" "TohearVogneri"
"Why, I thought he was dead."
It certainly was Wagner's evening, though
the musicians "scored." Next?
Gentlemen, you were missed in tho after
noon chorus. Don't mention it
Will tbe lady chorus please rise and sing
"I'm a dandy, but I'm no dude?"
A fellow can't hum "Like to a Vision,"
and write Notes at the same time.
"Let me introduce you to Manager Locke:"
Handsome, dignified and pleasant
A brown-bye d symphony in old gold in a
center box was sweet to look upon.
It's bad grammar, but good sense, to say the
girls were enwraptured by lovely wraps.
That fool carpenter who pounded while
Juch sang, should have been nailed to his own
beam.
It wasn't a bad idea to have the German
musicians step under the American flag in
entering the door.
What do you think of a girl with a- yellow
wrap, blonde hair and bottle-green gloves?
Well, she was there.
Will some kind soul please send a rhyme for
"festival"' to this office? "Best of all" has been
suggested; but that is reason, but no rhyme.
That yonng man in a white "walnscoat"
who yawned so dreadfully during "dich tbeure
halle," went out too late and came back too
soon.
Well, they saw and heard last night Not
one Iota has it been overdrawn, for that is im
possible; the only straggle being to give some
fair idea of what actually occurred.
It was pretty and graceful, when Campanari
and Juch were encored, to see the gentleman
proudly wave his hand toward Emma, Indi
cating he thought the honor belonged to ber.
There's Uie twam-ety-twam of tbe long trom
bone. While tbe sonorous brass kettledrum
Lends its low, muffled notes to the fog-horn's
tone ,
And tho general tum-tc-tnm-tum.
The best place to catch a glimpse of the en
tire house was from the rear elevated stage,
and from this point the eye and the ear could
be gratified at one and tbe same time. Tbe
auditorium seemed to be solidly filled, though
this was not quite true, and it seems bard to be
lieve that a handsomer, more brilliant or more
representative Pittsburg audience could ever
again bejrathered under one roof.
Thebt, are two, or probably three, very good
reasons to account for the tremendous ova
tlon granted' the performers of last night. In
the first place they deserved it; then it is now
the fashionable part of the week; and again
the press bas turned in so cheerfully to give fall
credit that the fame of the festival has spread
far:and wide, and muslo lovers in outlying
towns are aetermined to see for themselves
justwhatislnit
Fortunately the hitherto frown ing and
chilly atmosphere had moderated just enough
from the matinee to evening to permit the
pretty and popular chorus to don light and
lovely colors in exchange for the heavier and
dull, but eminently comfortable dress. The
ladies in the vast audience, too, had evidently
been watching the weather as dosely as their
looking-glasses, thoucb perhaps with not quite
such a DriUiant effect
It seems as If our superb festival has been
built on the cumulative plan. That is: it
started in with a success amazing, but instead
of growing less, it has gained strength, volume
and numbers with each succeeding concert un
til it seems as if the epoch in musical history
marked by tbe concert of last night must cer
tainly and by all means be "the greatest and the
most successful possible. In all probability,
however.these very words may be contradicted
with charming frankness by the events of to
night and there will be none more pleased
than the newspapers.
The beautiful white, cream and pink evening
costumes were more elaborate and more plenti
ful than ever before, while lace, or heavier

Politics to Blnmo For the Condition of tbe
Chicago Insane Asylum Vermin of All
Kinds on Every Hnnd The Su
perintendent Too Easy.
Chicago, May 23. Dr. Clevenger was
on the stand again to-day in the Insane Asy
lum investigation. "Pay is an obj'ect at
the Asylum" he said, "and it attracts
toughs and roughs. It ought to be cut down
so as to get the medical students and those
anxious to learn to be attendants. At one
time Dr. Kiernan made a rnle that all
braises inflicted on the patients must be
dressed at once. The attendants went on
strike immediately. Thev could not be
bothered with so much work. Dr. Kiernan
also refused at one time to allow the em
ployes access (0 the liquor room, and the en
gineer became very angry and threatened
to kick the door down. It was no use to
discharge the attendants when incompetent
They would como around next day and
brag that they could not be discharged, and
that they had more influence than a super
intendent "What about rats out there?"
"There are rats, mice and all kinds of ver
min, large and small; cockroaches, lice, bed
bugs, etc, etc., out there."
"Where were they in the walls?" asked
the Court.
"Well, your Honor, it's hard to say where
they were not. Dr. Kiernan tried for a
month to get line-tooth combs, bnt the
County Board, couldn't spare the money
from whisky bills."
"I am prety well satisfied that Kiernan is
utterly unable to prevent brutality. Kier
nan is surrounded by a lot of enemies, and
he is the subject of a conspiracy which he
is too simple minded to perceive. He is
unsuspicious, and is, if! may use the word,
too easy. He is utterly incapable of cruel
ty. I remember once a very powerful lu
natic kicked him,' and though he was pale
and sick with the pain, when an attendant
asked: 'Doctor, shan't I put her in the
straight jacket?' he replied, 'Not at all.
She does not know what she is doing.' He
is a good man, but he is surrounded by
some of the holdovers from the old 'regime.
I was told by some one, J can't remember
now whether it was Mulmeyer or Callaghan
or D. Moyer or Dr. Alexander, that there
was an attendant out there who is taking
down everything Dr. Kiernan docs to report
to his political enemies."

Extracts From an English Book of an "Ex
ceedingly Authoritative Character.
New York Sun .3 '
Hints for driving of an unusually author
itative character are found in a book re
cently published in England on that art,
from the pens of several contributors of re
cognized experience.
The Duke of Beaufort, for instance, says
thatjthe whip shonld be held at the collar,
the silver plate about ten inches from the
end. Two-handed driving is protested
against "The right hand has no sort of
business to touch, the reins, except for
the purpose of shortening or lengthen
ing one or both of them, or of supporting
IUC IQlb U4UU OllUUll lb IbtUUC aMHtlll
such as holding a puller or in turning. For
driving four horses "the driving hand (the
left) shonld be straight in the center of
your body, with the knuckles of your hand
to the front and your forearm exactly square
to the upper arm." Then "having seated
himself on the box, the coachman shonld
Sut forth his feet close together. His left
and shonld be about where the top of bis
trousers would come that is, the iorearm
pretty nearly or absolutely horizontal the
hand almost if not quite, in tbe center of
the body, with tbe back of his fingers and
his knuckles straight to the front"
Another contributor, Lord Algernon St
Maur, says: "As.to your reins, they should
be held as near your heart as possible, if
you happen to have one; if not, where your
heart ought to be." The expounder of tan
dem driving is Lady Georgina Curzon.
NO SURRENDER IN VIRGINIA
So lions as Mabone Insists on Remaining;

ISrXCIAL TELEGItAM TO THE DISFATCII.l
Peteesbubg, W. Va., May 23. There
are a large number of strangers in the city
from all parts of the State in attendance
upon the musical festival, and among them
are some of the most prominent anti
Mahoneites in Virginia. Your correspond
ent talked with a leading representative of
this faction to-day, as to the prospects of
harmonizing the Republican party in Vir
ginia. He said that the nnti-Mahoneites of
the State indorsed the sentiments expressed
by ex-Governor Cameron and the Hon. John
S. Wise, in Richmond, some weeks ago,
which were to the effect that there was no
earthly chnnce of bringing the two factions
together in harmony so long as Mahone re
mained the dictator that he is.
"There will be no surrender," he said,"so
long as Mahone endeavors to be master of
political affairs in Virginia."

Mrs. Dr. Crossley, one of the Consulting Physi
cians at the Catarrh and Dyspepsia Institute, 3Xt
Penn Avenue.
15 DOCTORS FJSJUJE,T
To cure Mrs. Thomas Hatton, and she suffered
on for 13 years. Tbe aches and pains which
she experienced in almost every pan of her
body was simply terrible. Those sharp, cutting
pains across the small of her back and lower
part of her body was almost unbearable. In
fact she suffered with all those diseases and
conditions peculiar to women. For three
months her mind was unbalanced, and for
months she was confined to her bed. She be
came very weak and emaciated, so that she
only weigbed 98 pounds. No one expected her
to live, much less get entirely cured. After
receiving three months' treatment with the
physicians of the Catarrh and Dyspepsia Insti
tute, 323 Penn avenue, who make a specialty of
ber disease, she says:
"I never want any one to suffer as I have for
the past 13 years. The condition of my caso
was much worse than has been aescribed, and
I am only too glad to testify to my complete
cure by tbe doctors of the Catarrh and Dys
pepsia institute
'MRS.THOMAS HATTON, Putnam, Pa."
Please remember that the physicians of they
Catarrh and Dyspepsia Institute never display
their patient's portraits in the papers. Neither
do tbey publish any testimonial, except wltU '
the full consent or wish of the patient
Furthermore, their testimonials are not from
some far off place where no such parties reside,
but from your own county and your own
city, with the full name and address
given, thus proving their genuineness. The
Catrrrh and Dyspepsia Institute is thoroughly
established in Pittsburg; and thousands of
patients cladly testify to cures they bare re
ceived. Tbe treatment used does not consist
of the so-called magnetic, or superhuman
agencies, but medidnes made from roots
and herbs, nnd compounded to suit
the requirements of each individual
case, thus removing not only the disease,
but the cause of the disease as well.
Ninety-five out of every hundred of the pati
ents treated at this Institute are those suffer
ing from Catarrh, which is the certain fore
runner of consumption. Tbe testimonials pub
lished speak for themselves. They treat suc
cessfully Catarrh. Rheumatism. Dyspepsia,
