j$. -r ' 32 THE PTTTSBtmG- DISPATCH, SU2TDAY, AWtTST . 16, 1891. The Eumraer Is beginning to wane. When, the doc days are over and the theater show a deposition to open their doors, the fre quenter of tho seashore and mountains think It is tlmo to turn their faces toward home. Tbey think that those faces are tinned enough, and that they are almost ready for the tochl whirl that lasts from November to April almost without a break. But thev do not consider or, at least, some or tnem do not that the pleasantest time of tho wl-olo Miinmer vacation is compnaed n ithin tho six weeks or so from this date. As soon as the sun begins to shine with added strength they want to get ont of town, md the coneqnenco is that by the middle ir August they are tired of everything per taining to country life, and long for the dingj city with a longing that can only bo accounted for on the theory that "there is no place like home " So they come home and try to force the winter puiety into life, ignoring tho fact that those who have pnt off their vacation to this sensible time are enjoying themselves at the seashore or in the mountains to a greater extent than was possible to their predecessors. And yet there is something to be said in favor of r.ttsburg in August and Septein lior, too. Although the heart of the citj is not the most desirable place in hieh to spend warm dajs and sultry evenings, there are sue i miles of snburbs where na ture has full sway that tho stay-at-homes ure rather to bo envied than pitied. A few years ago, no one who could get aw ay would think of staying nt home throughout the Hummer ToAiiy there are man sen-ible people w ho will not go aw ay at all, sa e, pel flaps, for a fortnight, to take a dip in the briny, hastening back at. soon as this duty i- performed to 1 ebt under thtir own ine and llgtree Tittsburgers are not to be fo-md who will say that they have never bail such a good time away as they have in thi9 frame "smoky Pittsburg." They talk about the hammock swung on the porch or in the lawn, and think with a serene pensc of comlort of the many hours they 1 a e spent thus in neglige costume, with no hotel verandah to dress for, and no dress parade on tho pier or beach to disturb them. These are the people to whom all seasons are alike. In the winter they enjoy their own fireside and in the summer they keep cool on their own propert. Why should they go away still, it is impossible to persuade people that it is not to their advantage to take what is called a summer vacation some time in t.ie year and the accepted idea of that sum mer vacation -mil alwajs be a departure ft cm the city. A Timely Philanthropy. That i' a glorious idea of the Society for the Improvement of the Poor to send woik lag women and girls a ay for a short time every summer. It should be remembered that people of this class are not likely to live in the healthful suburbs of the city, but rather in close streets and alleys. To them a week or two in the country may mean the saving of their lives. The society asks for the theaddrc-es of people in the country who are willing to take respectable gills or women to oojrd with thtm at a reasonable figure. Theieniust be plent such, nd it m ill only be net essary 101 tuem to know that they can thus give life to scme of the poor workers of the citv to inoure their coming foru ard with otters of succor. The society needs pecuniary help in carry ing out As benehcent plan. It will defray the expenses of the girls who are unable to pay board in the country for themsel es, out there are a great many demands up n tho treasury of the society and It is neces sary lor the philanthropists of the city to assist if the&ood Toik is to bo carried on successfully, ThPi fc'iould and will be an immediate and genrous response to theap penl of the isocietj The Fall Costume. The time is drawing very near when the Pittsburg mnldb and matrons will begin to rhanta requ'emoier their summer belonging-. The gowns, bonnets and daliitj bits of apparel which co-t them so much thought in the eaily spring and summer will toon Le cast aside lor the latest fall fancy in tho i milliner's ait. That dear creature, the su ai mer girl who i-.o berated for herlackof lignitj , ill have no end of thie conunoditj rhen urra-, ed in the t-ulor made silk gown, which, according to Parisian reports, aie to take the le-ad next winter. The silk 1-. to be ot the heaviest warp and of dark rich Ehade-. ol l)Tin, gieen, blue, etc. E".erj woman who lalucs iier reputation as a inadtr of souietj must possess at least one of these tailoi-mailc silkatlairs. The cut Mill be m e long coat and plain skn t, much like tnese worn this summer some oi the suks show tiny specks, the kind of silk so much aduiucd lj women of ouiet tastct- Others are covered n ith a 1 aiidsome scroll like design Long coats of brocaded elet-ill also be u stjlish leat ure ol the fall costumes. The vel ets have estremcl light grounds, and are almost covered by dark interlaced patterns. Out-Door Theatricals. "As Ton Like It" at Chautauqua Is one of the functions of this week. It was to have taken placo last week, but as there were sev eral other events on the lake, it wa9 put off lor a week. Pittsburgers are making up theater parties to go to Lakewook, and the affair may rightlj be called one of the social -pisodes of this city. Tho summer lesorts are sc near us now, in tho way of accessi bility and the shortness ol time that it takes to reach them, that they are almost one with tne cities in - hich we live.

J Bwor TnTATnt 'The Limited Mall" Haebt Williams' academv " Turner's English Girls World's Museum Curiosities, etc The above are tho theatrical attractions for this week. Only two of tho largo number of novelties promised Xew York for the coming season have as yet been tried. These are "The High Roller" and "Jane." The former is a so called spectacular farce comedy, and Its failure has been of the most pronounced kind. A stupider conglomeration of non sense, vulgarity and objectionable display of the human figure has probably not been seen in the metropolis for many a day. The papers were unanimous in their con demnation of It, and it is somewhat im piobable that it will All the date, which include Pittsburg, booked forlt. It seems to be the general Impression among Xew York managors that, although there are more comio farce comedies getting ready to start out on the road this season, the death knoll of that very frivolons and unsatis factory form of entertainment has been sounded in tho failure of this highly ex pensive example, "The High Roller." Some thing like 40 or 60 farco comedies are going to travel this year, and a liberal estimate is that of thco 35 will wobble disconsolately homeward within three months. Although Tittsburg has given a kindlier reception to farce comedy than most cities, it is not likely that many people here will really regret Its disappearance. "Jane" Is a comedy of some merit, It ap pears, but not particularly startling in originality or lnteiost. In fact, in London, from whence it came, its particular claim upon theater goers seems to have been a certain French naughtiness about which the less said the better. Tho critics in New York praise "Jane" mildly, but overlook en tirely or appear not to see the particular quality which won for it success in Lon don. They are hustling things at Davis' Alvin Theater these days, and it seems probable that tho opening will occur some time toward tho end of Soptember or the be ginning of October. Mr. Davis still Insists that he will open the house on September 21 with Pauline Hall's comic opera company, but the chances are that he will not be able to do so, though it is within the bounds of possibility that extra labor may put the house in a coudition to loeeive the publio by that date. After what wo have seen done with other new theaters that have been hurried in the last stages of then erection, theie is no absolute certainty that Mr. Davis will not be able to open on the day named. A great deal of interest is manifested abroad in tho Alvin Theater, and it is gen erally expected byprofesslonals that it will be as handsome a theater as money and a disposition to spend it can obtain. It is true also that Mr. Davis has been very lib eral in his terms to managers of traveling organizations that will come to his houso, and one of tho consequences of this is that the lino ol attractions w hich the new theater will have will be a fine one. Ono of the first notable attractions of the coming season will bo Mr. Joseph Haworth in legitimate drama at the Duquesne Theater on September 7. It is a production, too, which will command Interest in Pittsburg because of tho local brains and money con cerned therein. Mr. Allan J. Shedden, Mr. Haworth's manager, is well known here as manager of old Library Hall, the Bijou and the Grand Opeia House, and he has the credit of taking the "U. S. Mail" successfully through the country. Mr. Max Ihmsen comes of the well-known Pittsburg family of that n imo, and will lepresent Mr. Haworth's interests in advance of tho company. Mr. Haworth will play "St. Mare," "Buy Bias" and possibly another play. The first named is a now and striking diania of the romantic school. Mr. Hawoith is now rehearsine with his com- piny in New York. Tho company is ono of the best oiganied for the road, and in eludes Katharine Kidder, Louise Rial, Atkins Lawrence, Edwin Drouot, and several others who are generally known. The improvements in the Grand Opera nouse are so nearly complete that a very fair idea can be obtained of their general effect, and it must be acknowledged that it is very good. The coloring is now entirely light and cheeriul, the houso no longer re sembles a church of Calvauistic tendencies, and there is npt a suggestion ot the grave or the dungeon in tho decorations of the audi tonumor lobby. The house es it now stands will undoubtedly bo as bright and S leasing to the eye as any in town, anager Wilt has also altcicd the seat ing arrangements on the floor of the houso with good results, enlarging the parquet circle at the expense of the parquet, and adding a coiislderablenumberof seats to the capacity of the theater. These steps, coupled with the determination which Mi. Wilt an nounces, to treat the public as liberally and courteously as he can, may servo to bring back to the Opeia House the prestige w hicn it has undoubtedly lost. There are lots of changes in progress in the Xew York theaters. Lillian Russell, who has been the chief star of the Casino firmament for a long while, is to transfer her ladianoy to the new Garden Theater un der the management of Mr. Irench. Miss Tempest will take hci place, and to rein force the company the sprightly Annie Myeis, who has been supporting Digby Bell in the "Tar and Taitar," will go to Mr. Aronson's theater. Francis Wilson is going to try to make a long run at the Broadway with the "Merry Monaich" this fall, but it would not be surprising if he took to the road earlier than ho now plans. George Jenks is going to tempt the ele ments with another performance of "As Yon Like It" out of doors at Lakewood, Chautauqua, on Friday, August 21, and he says that there Is a good promise of a suc cessful performance artistically and finan cially. Mi's Mane Burress was to have plaved Roeahnd.tmt reheat sals ut the Boston Museum, where she is to be leading lady the coming season, necessitated her depaituie from this part of the country on Wednesday, and she was obliged to foiego the chance to show her ability in the character which Miss Coghlan intested with so much roman tic beauty in tho alfresco perioiuanco heie. One of tho novelties of tho coming season to which Xew Yorkers look forward with considerable eagerness, is Adonis Dixey's re appearaneo in stiaight comedy. He is to play the leading part in an English comedy called "The Solicitor," and will be supported by a very clever company, including, y the way, Mi. Burr Mcintosh, of this city. Mr. Mcintosh, who is as blooming and sanguine ns e er, told mo tho other day on Broadway, that he was going out with "Alabama" this yearattorhe hadcieatedapait in the "So licitor." Tho execntivo staff of the Duquesne Thea ter has been stiengthened by the addition of Henry C. Shw ab.who will attend in future to an important pa t of the local manage ment. Mt. Shw nb has been connected with many successful theatucal enterprises in Pittsburg, and has held important places on the local press, ulwas displaj mg plontv of abilitv and energy. There is not the least doubt that Mi. fell wab will materially assist Managei Henderson in pleasing tho public hereabouts. The improvements that have been made in Harris' Theater include new chairs or a comtoitablo pattern, new paper on the walls, new paint a d flooring, as well as other small things. The scenery is also no.w At Hany Davis' Museum a thorough over hauling is taking place, and it is promised that the house shall be handsomer than ever when it opens on August 21. HEFBUBif Job KB. The TtUon Theater. After a week of laughter a play of th I deeply stirring kind, full of homely pathos and melodramatio fire, ought to catch the popular fancy. Such a drama is Elmer E. Vance's realistic railioad comedy drama, "The Limited Mail," which has for the past season met with phenomenal success else where. Unlike many other plays, "The Limited Mail" was written and produced by a thoroughly practical man, who knew ex actly what he wanted nnd what ho was writ ing nbout, nnd his lifelong experience as night telegraph operator and train dis patcher in the employ of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad depot at Columbus, O., has Bhown itself in every lino and in every ac tion of the play. The engagement nt the Bijon, commencing to-morrow night, will be tho 51st consecutive week of this company, they having just returned from the Paciflo coast, where their Eastern success has every where been duplicated. A four weeks' en fagement at the Bush Street Theater, an Franciscd, aggregating over $23,000, was the most profitable summer en gagement ever played at that house. Tho following is taken from tho Portland Oregonimi of Jnly 23- "Many of the scenes are startlingly realistic. The tele graph scene in the third act, w hero the "Am bitious Kid" taps the wires nnd sends the wrong message, which the audience euls in flaming letters on the wires, was or 'hnlling Interest. The greit engine, puflii g live sparks as It crashed ov er the warning tor pedo, the clang of the bell, the hiss of steam, the puff and glare and rusa and clatter fol lowing the dash of a full sized lightning ex press train, were given with a realism that dumfounded the audience. The sawmill scene, in which the heiolne comes within a hair's breadth of being cut in two by a wicked-looking "bnzz saw," is intensely ex citing. In the last act a handcar, on which the two villains were trying to escape, Jumps tho track, tips over and throws the villains into the footlights, as though they were fired from a Krupp gun. The perform ance had a very commendable cast. World's Museum-Theater. This popular house, freshenedup for a new season of activity, offers a pretty big bill of attractions for the coming week. The lead ing wonders will be Minerva and Charles P. Blatt, two immensely strong athletes. Of Minerva it is said that she has lifted K3 pounds of iion, dead weight, from the floor, and the eminent sport, Richard K. Fox, of the Police Oazette,i9 willing to bet anyone $1,000 that she is the strongest woman in the world lilting weights. Moreover, she is a handsome nnd comely woman, in the perfect development of whose muscles much may be found to admire. Mr. Blatt is usually called the iron muscled Hercules, and his sensational feats of strength Justify the title. He has caught recently a cannon ball fired with six ounces of gunpowder from a large cannon, and will do It again. He also proposes to take a solid iron horso shoe weighing a couple of pounds and with a steady pull tear it apart, which is beyond a doubt a wonder ful piece of muscular accomplish ment. Five thousand dollars will bo paid to anyone who can rival Mr. Blatt in his feats of strength. There will be three gen uine curiosities, and in the theater Daly's Specialty Company will give a strictly first performance. Comedy sketches, dancing and songs will be included in this entertain ment, of the excllence of which the presence of Mr. Tom Mcintosh, the great colored comedian, is sufficient guarantee. Harris' Theater. Harris, Brltton & Dean open their season to-morrow afternoon when Will E. Burton, a rising young comedian, will appear in a rattling farce-comedy entitled "Tom Saw yer." The performance is just the kind of a one to suit a summer night audience, drive away the blues and make one extremely happy. The show has never been seen here befoie, but comes highly praised by such competent authority as the Chicago Inter-Ocean, which recently contained the ifollowing 'criticism: "Of Mr. Will E. Burton we can simply say that ho Is a phenomenon, and haB in Tom Sawyer created a role, the equal of which, in all its varied phases, American theater goers have never seen equalled. The sup port is remarkably strong.' Harry Williams' Academy. The syndicate has invaded the variety stage and now we are to have Turner's' English Girls' Burlesque and Variety Syn dicate monopolizing Harry Williams' stage for a whole week. But if the syndf cate in this instance only corners laughter and squeezes out the blues it will bo gently criticized. It is promised for these fair artists that they will give a full equivalent of fun, beanty and song for the prico of admission, a week of hilarious- hospitality is to be expected in this pop ular homo of vaudeville. Grand Opera House. This theater, practically new In many essential particulars.will open for the season on Monday, Augnat 81, with a revival of old English comedy that ought to be of great in terest. The plays will include "She Stoops to Conquer," Tom Taylor's "Runaway Match," "Married Life" by Buckstone, and "Paul Pry," Poole's memorable old play. The company is n. new one, including Wilfred Clarke, son of J. S. Clarke, the great comedian and grandson or Junius Brutus Booth, and Miss Martha Ford, daughter or the veteran man ager, whose debut this performance will bo. It is promised that these plays shall be staged and acted in a manner commensurate with their woi th, and it will be a favorable opportunity for theatergoers to compare tho old style comedy with the modern article. Moreover, the first appcaiance of Miss Ford, of whose beauty and ability great things are promised, beside young Mr. Clarke, whole performance has already shown much prom ise, jnust surely excite attention. The Dnquesne Theater. This house will b closed next week, but will re-open for a preliminary fall season on Monday, August 24, with Cleveland's Min stiels. This company contains Arthur RIgby, John Queen, tho four emperors of music, Howard, Russell, Blackford and Talhert; Deceptive Lyons, the burlesque star; Girard Leon, clown, and his$10,000 challenge singing donkeys: Reto, master of eqnilibrism on his gold and silver pedestal and ladders; Edgar Wilson, English barytone balladist; George E.
