C. TV. Williams Co. World's MrsECM-THEATKR Curiosities. Etc DaW Museum-Theater Curiosities. Etc. Harris' Theater Daniel A. Kelly The above are the theatrical attractions here this week The stock company Ausnstns Piton sent out last season has been disbanded. The fear that it would be was expressed In thee columns some weeks ago. It was a brilliant but costly experiment. Its artistic success was -Treat, and in fact only limited by the inability or Mr. Pitou to And a great play suited to the company. The announce ment is made that Miss Sells man has also left Mr. Piton and is arranpinc with some other manager for a starring tour next season. Who the lucky mannger will be 1b not positively known, but rumor sueeests Mr. Frank Sanper. Un-ier fairly favorable conditions Miss Scliiman onsrlit to be the first actress of the land before the end of two more seasons, as she is the most promising to-day. Her am bition l loftv, and includes Shakespearean honors, which she should have no difficulty In obtaining. It i a gieat pitv that the stock company of which Miss Seligman was tne moil uillllant member should Lie dis solved, as there is no organization in sight that can hope to take its place. Mis Julia Marlowe has had an extraordi narily Buccesslul week at the Grand Opera House, consideiing the lateness of the sea son and tin fact that prior to her perform ance here she was not particularly well known In Pitfburg. The Dispatch has already recorded a general estimate of her abilities in the several roles which she has essayed, and it need only be further stated that, it seems certain that Miss Marlowe's talents are especially great in the line of comedy. Her most successful characteriza tion was Beatrice, in my opinion, but every thing she did was hfcrhly artistic, and there can be no doubt but that a most brilliant lutuie awaits bcr if her health does not fall. It is singular how few of the young actresses to-dav who are stars have the dating to play such an extended repertoire of the legitimate drama as Miss Marlowe has done. I think, perhaps, it would he advantageous to her if she weio to drop one or two ot the plays and devote herself en tirely to the Shakesperean comedies, in which she is so eminently well fitted to shine. She seems to have made as good an impression upon her own sex as upon the opposite, and very few actresses have leaped so suddenly into popularity- in Pittsburg as she has. It is a pity that her managers do not realize the necessity of engaging a bet ter company and providing more perfect scenery and appointments, and if this policy of niggaidliuess is pursued it will have the effect ol hampering Miss Marlowe in her upward flight. ' The two most recent amateur successes In this city have reflected much credit upon Mr. Sturgeon, tho well-known actor of this city, who coached both the Tuesday Night Club and at least a part of the Sewickley Valley Club in their recent production-. The per formance of "Diplomacy" at the Duqueaiie Theater on Fiiday night was remarkably finished for the amateurs, and It could be ci incised very favorably upon the same plane as professionals. Its pertormance le call.i the lact that "Diplomacy" is one of the neatest and most effective dramas of the s-cliool which was so popular in England 20 years ago. "Diplomacy" itselt had a pro digious ran at the Prince of Wales' Theater in London, and the Bancrofts made their greatest hit In it. It has since been played by h Kedals, and In this country by several stable organizations, and it is reasonable to suppose that the revival ofit might prove highly successiul now. IlErEDBS Johss. Bljon Theater. "The melo-dramatic event of tho season," is the way Howard P. Taylor's spectacular production, "The PnUe of New York," Is billed at the Bijou Theator where it qpens Monday a'ternoon. It is a panoramic melo drama in four arts and 12 scenes. The play Is apparently one of thoso melodramas that deal with the every-day life of New York, and contain abundant excuse for the intro duction of scenic and mechanical effects of a staitling character. It i said that no ex pense has. been spared to mako it attractive, imd that the stage pictures which It contains are wondeirully realistic The use of superla tives in the description ot plays of this sort is to bo expected, butfiom all accounts "The FuUeuf 2ew York" is quite up to the"com inon melodramatic standard. The cast is beaded by Miss Gracie Emmet and contains Mii Cora Macy, Irene Lawrence, Jennie Elberts, Mr. J. II. Ferris, Mr. Walter Jones, George Bates, Hugh Ford. Ralph Dormnn, Mazier George Elliott ana otner favorite and well-known pliers. The UBUal matinees will be given during this engagement on Wednesday and Satur day; also a special Decoration Day matinee ou Monday atternoon. Grand Opera Honse. "'The Midnight Alarm," at the Grand this week, deals with the exciting life of a fire man in the great metropolis. Since the play was seen here last season it has been en tirely l evised and new leatures added. The drama has two great realistic effects the great railroad drawbridge over Shark run and the flight or the lightning express. As the train is heard approaching Sparkle and Gertrude come upon the scene. They Mumble over the piostrate form of Landon and almost at the same timo discover that the bridge is open. Agonized at the danger thicatening the man Gertrude' brother and Sparkle's sweetheart they rush into the signal house and try to pull down the lever. It Is so high that Spark'e cannot reach it, but Gertrude, who is the taller or the two, succeeds in grasping the bar. Her weight, however, is not sufficient to move tho heavy machinery, and the train all the time is coming nearer its doom. Sparkle finds an old chair and, placing It against the lowest end ol the lever, succeeds in getting hold of the bar, working out hand-over-hand until the united weight or the two girls sets the machinery in motion, the bridge swings into piace just in time, anu tne train rolls across. The next act takes place in engine bouso No. 6, New York. Alter a terrific hand-to-band struggle the scene revolves, showing the exterior of the engine, bouse, with Cur nngford and Westmare fighting on the side walk. Landon runs on, takes in the scene at at glance, and throws Oamngont off. The fire gong is ringing luriouMy, the horses and engine are at their post, Westmorc springs to his seat, and the engine is awav like a flash to the scene of the couflagation. It will be seen that for sensational effects "The Mid night Alarm" will be rather haid to beat. The Alvin Theater. The Lilliputians will close the season this week at the Alvin Theater in the play "The Pupil in Magic" It must not be inferred that the organization itself is in any way small; It comprises about 200 people, includ ing two full ballets. Veritable strays from Gulliver's kingdom of Lilliput they appear, the tallest among them being only 37 inches in height. This is Miss Mincucn Becker, the leading lady, who Is i-atcl to have unusual dramatic ability. Another talented mem ber ot this company is Franz Ebert, a nat ural comedian, whose little scene after a night out is said to bo full of a quaint and original drollery. The bullet of tne Lil ipu tlane is said to be entirely off the conven tional lines. In the first act it represents the high-jinks of the automata In the uncle's automaton shop, and in the third a host of pretty girls represent various games chess, dice, cards, ninepins, billiards, etc. Among the scenic effects will be the Eiffel Tower, illuminated by electric lights; the automa ton shop, the wandering woods and the palace of games. World' Museum-Theater. The devil for a .near relative of the "old boy" has been engaged by the World's Museum-Theater lor this week in the per son o! liarnello, who is said to fairly breathe lire. Ills performance Is considered the most original and remarkable of its kind ever wltnesseo. Signor Barnello altogether departs from the rut of the fire kings and accomplishes feats so wonderful that his I t claim to being the supreme Emperor of Fire Is entirely warranted. Antonio Van Gofre is another Individual who will as. tonish the patrons of this popu lar place of amusement by balancing the weight of his body on his front feeth. This is but one or the extra ordinary feats performed by this great artist. bouts Paul, the detective defler, will forfeit $150 for anv railr or handcuffs be cannot unlock within CO seconds. His invi tation is extended to any detective or officer who desires to experiment upon him with any sort or shackles. In the Theater Jar beau's Jolly Jokers, an exceptionally clever company of comedians, vocalists dancers and specialists, will hold forth In a pleasing and varied vaudeville programme. Some of the best variety performers In the profes sion are included In this organization. Davis' Museum-Theater. The County Circus will begin Its second engagement at Harry Davis' Fifth Avenue Museum-Theater to-morrow morning, and will run for an Indefinite period. When last seen in Pittsburg tho show was such a pro nounced success that Manager Davis at once re-engaged It lor this week, and later decided to keep it here as long as its popularity continues. The show has been gieatly strengthened for this special engagement, a complete Wild West exhibition haTing been added, along with many other new features. It is the In tention to secure new pertormers and new acts every week during its stay In this cltr. A full ring show, menagerie, aviary and mu seum will be Included in the entertainment. In the first place there will be the Emily Zolo troupe of electrical aerial wonders In midair feats; Cowboy Samson, the man with the chest of stone, who allows a horse and rider, weighing more than 800 pounds, to cross his breast: Clyde Philip, the woild-renowned gymnast and contortionist from Sanger's London Circus, and the Albion Brothers in acrobatic feats. These are but a few of the many features offered patrons or the Fifth Avenue this week. To-morrow being Decoration Day tile museum will open at 10:30 a. jc. and con tinue until 11 p. jr. At 9 o'clock the circus will parade through tho principal streets or the city. Harry Williams" Actdemr. C. W. Williams' Cosmopolitan Vaudeville Stars, which comes here this wetk, include prime Javorites with Pittsburg audiences. The Imperial Four have few equals in their special line. The same may he said Of Charles Harris, Nellie Walters, the Garnella Brothers, Harry Bartlett, Lottie Murpny. Grade May, Phil Mack, MoCabe and Daniels and C W. Williams. Thursday evening's performance will be a benefit for the at taches of this popular theater. There will be an extra matinee on Monday afternoon. Harris Theater. To-morrow afternoon Daniel A. Kelly, an established Pittsburg favorite exponent of sensational roles, will appear at Harris' Theater in his new play, "After Seven Tears." The drama Is the best Mr. Kelly has ever had in his repertoire. The drama will be staged in a superior manner, as each act will be set with special scenery and the mechanical effects introduced aro intensely lealistlc The company Is composed of thoroughly competent people, it la said. Stage Whispers. Modjeska's tour for '92-'3S will De under the direction of Frank L. Perley and J. J. Buckley. Ada Grat, in the famous emotional drama "East Lynne," will be the attraction at Har ris' Theater for the week commencing Junes. Charles Bowser made a hit In Philadel phia last week as Jefferson Boomer in Helen Barry's new play, "Her Ladyship," written by H. G rattan Donnelly. Sidset Boseeld seems to havo written a real success in "Imagination," a farcical comedy produced at the Fourteenth Street Theater last Monday in New York. Ed Collier is authority for the statement that Helena Collier's high kick In the kang nroo dance reaches an altitude of 8 feet 2 inches. He declares it Is "out of sight." The winners of the handsomest baby and mother In the Davis Museum contest last week will be announced in Monday morn ing's papers. More than 30,000 votes were cast. A LirrtE theater will be opened on the first story or the Eiffel Tower in Paris June L There will be Sunday matinees. Gaston Au nan Cailhavel Is writing a revue, Patis en l'Alr icr the new ventuie. Hexrt Ikvisg has again made a change in his plans, and has decided to underline "King Lear" for his next production. Ellen Terry, or course, will play Cordelia. Original incidental music will he composed by Ham ilton Clarke. The "Colleen Bawn" was written by Dion Boucicault, from Geral d Cfriffln's story of "The Collegians," in nine days; the haste of the work being inspired by successive fail ures at Laura Keene's Theater and the im mediate necessity for a new drama at that house. W.illiax Stcart, of the Julia Marlowe Company, lias won a great deal of praise for his Claudio in "Much Ado About Nothing." Mr. Stuart is a Pittsburg boy, and all of his many friends are pleased at bis success. Ho will remain in Miss Marlowe's company next season. Robert Gmrrnr Morbis says that he wrote "The Egyptian," and that Margaret Mather neglects both to acknowledge the fact and to pay him therefor. Miss Mather's answer is that she was compelled to make so many changes In the book that it no longer bears trace oi jut. .norna' worn. Mrs. Bernard Beers, who will next season be under tho management of Marcus B. Mayer, will leturn to England from Aus tralia, where she has been"very successful, about August and and will then appear at the London criterion in a round of old com edies. She will leave England October 10, and will begin her American season Novem ber It at the Manhattan Opera House In New York. The theater cat at the Grand Opera Hoase made another bid for liistronlc honors on Friday night. Between acts t and 6 of "Ingomar" she appeared before the curtain carrying in her mouth a finely-developed rat, which was still alive. She stood per fectly still, with a superb affectation of un concern while the whole house applauded. Then she stole quietly into a stage box and disappeared among the audience, to the alarm of some ot the ladles, A Roman hansom cab, a Roman .patrol wagon and an Olympian elevator are three of the novelties that are introduced in DIgby Bell's production of "Jupiter," the merry opera that has proven so successful at Palmer's Theater, New York, where It Is now ncaring Its fiftieth performance. On Tuesday evening next the second edition of "Jupiter" will be presented. It is Mr. Bell's idea to give a new edition every fiftieth performance. It will certainly be a novelty and will add renewed interest in the ruu or the opera. Eugene F. Eberle, of this city. Intends starting a school or the drama here.in which a thorough training for the stage may be had. Mr. Eberle is well known here from his connection with Pittsburg theaters dar ing the stock company regime. He has also been stage manager at Booth's Theater and the Standard and Park Theaters, New York. His experience with largo traveling companies such as Booth 4 Barrett's, Mary Anderson's, etc, has also been extensive and varied, and he ought to De able to teach young aspirants for the stage a good deal. A cablegram from London to The Dis patch says: It will be recalled that Mr. Gladstone left the House of Commons one night last week while the Irish land bill was being discussed and betook himself to the Garrick Theater, where, sitting In the wings, he enjoyed the presentation of "A Fool's Paradise," in whicli Mr. John Hare, the man ager of tho theater, takes the part of Sir Peter Lund. The great Liberal leader has now written a highly appreciative and com plimentary letter to Mr. Hare ou the subject of the play and upon Mr. Hare's acting. Mr. Ckarlib Harford for many seasons past one of the princlrjal leading actors in the Shakespearean companies of Mr. Edwin Booth, Mr. Lawrence Barrett, Madame Mod Jeska, Mr. T. W. Keene and the Robson and Crane Comedy of Errors Company, has pur chased Horn the estate of the late Lawrence Barrett all the scenery, properties, ward robe, etc. used by Booth andBarrott In their grand production of "Julius Cassar," and he will tour the country next season playing the part of Marc Antony, being the Bame as that be played with Booth and Barrett for two years. He has engagad Mr. Bennett Mntlack lor the part or Brutus and Mr, E. E, Spencer for the part of Cassius. Mr. Matlack has been a Shakespearean star for the past six or eight years. Mr. Spencer is an actor of wide experience and has been seen for the past three years as Guroo in "Paul Kauvar." David Henderson's American Extrava ganza Company will present their latest ex travaganza, "All Baba, or Morglana and the Forty Thieves," at the Chicago Opera House, June i This will be a week earlier than the appearance of any previous pro duction by the same company. Rehearsals have been In progress for nearly two weeks, under the direotion of Richard Barker, and the company, chorus and ballet are all eady thoroughly easy In their respective parts and duties. The soenery, which is in nine sets and rour tableaux, is by Frederick Dangerfield, who painted the beautiful can vases or the revived "Crystal Slipper" and "Slnbad." "All Baba," Is is prom ised, will surpass in plotorial dis play, any of Henderson's famous scenic pieces. The costumes of the produc tion have been made from designs by Howell Russell, of London, and Baron de Grimm, of New York. The greater part or them have been made in Chicago, in tho wardrobe rooms or the Chicago Opera nouse, by Madam Elise Freisinger, assisted by Madam Prinx. About 100 of the garments, no wever, were brought over from Europe, where they were made by Alias, the celebrated London costumer. The imported costumes comprise the dresses of the 'Tortv Thieves" and those of one ballet. They are discribed as the most magnificent and expensive set of stage garments ever seen in this country; some of them, to be worn by minor characters and dancers, costing $200 and $300 apiece, while the dresses of one or two of the principals run as .high as $600. The love of our English cousin is shown pretty clearly by Mr. Augustln Daly's at tempt to become a member of the Garrick Club. Actor Bancroft proposed him,, and the great name was duly Inscribed in the candidates book. The committee, however, inorediblo as it may appear, did not appear to want arter Mr. Daly's society, and so the name of the first manager of America" was withdrawn. The Garrick is probably the highest classed Bohemian club In the world. It is, however, the Bohemia or purple and fine linen, and there Is not a trace of the sanded floor and clay pipe idea in Its com position. Its members are drawn from every social strata, royal princes, bishops, peers, editors, llteratenrs, scientlsts-painters and actors. It Is the hopeless ambition of every actor to oecome a memuor, but the road into this clnb Is even harder to travel than is the famous camel path through the needle-eye pass. A few, only a very few, of the theat rical profession are members, and with the exception of men like Henry Irving, Beer bohm Tree, Willard and a few others, most of thp actors who belong to the club wore memiers before thov took to the stage. The other day, young Fred Terry (brother of Ada Behan's great and probably only Eng lish rival), who has come steadily to the front in his profession, recently took a wild flight for membership of the Garrick, but even with his powerful support he was-black balled. Mr. Daly, however. Is an Ameri can, and that settled It. On the other side of the ohannel, I wonder if Deacon would have been sent to jail If he had been born in France instead of America.
