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

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

tinue until 11 p. jr. At 9 o'clock the circus
will parade through tho principal streets or

The "Colleen Bawn" was written by Dion
Boucicault, from Geral d Cfriffln's story 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

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.
