Having had a long rest from noting , I ro- itumcd to Melbourne to play a short engage ment with my former partner at the Hay- Jiiakot , and then sailed for Aran DIomon's ' Laud , now called Tasmania , writes Joseph foMou In the Century for Muy. This lovely and hut ! formerly been n convict station , where lifo-sciitonccd prisoners from England liud been sent. There was nt the time I apeak of , n il ( is now , a most refined society in Tas- inaniii , though among the lower classes there l\vas n strongfinvor of the convict clement. I nctcd "Tho Tiokct-of-Leave-Man" for the first time iu Iluburt Town , and there was much excitement in the city when the play was announced. At least ono hundred tlckot- Of-leavo men were in the pit on the first night cf its production. Before the curtain rose , I looked through it at this terrible audience ; the faces In the pit wore a study. Men witu Jew foreheads mid small , peering eyes , ferret- looking eyes , &omo with fi'it ' noses mid square , cruel jaws , and sinister cxprolons looriug , J Iow and cunning all wearing a suUen.dogged t iookod , ns thougli they would tear the tenches from the pit and gut the theater of IU scenery if one of their kind was held up to nubile scorn upon the stage. This shows the gowcr of the drama. M author might Write an article abusing them , or an artist paint a picture showing up the hideous do- ormlty of their fenturosr-all this they could ficar and oven laugh at ; but put one of their Uk upon the .stage in human foriusurrouuded Joy the sympathetic story of n play , aud they -would no more bubmit to an ill-usage of him Jbau they would to a personal attack upon hemselvos. The first act of the play progressed with fyit little excitement. Tlieso men seemed to " * irUy thu humorous und pathetic side of the "f 1,1 wyyvlth great relish ; but when I came npbu tjio stagein the second act , revealing Jho cinucluted features of a returned convict , Uh biujkon eyes and n elosoly shaved head , there was a painful stillness in the house. JTlio wholq pit scorned to loan forward and their eager eyes upon the scene , and rlcrly revealed to his sweetheart the 'aocrota of the prison house , " there was lttlo murmurs of recognition and shakings of he head , as thougli they fully recognized 4ho local allusions that they so well rcrnem- rtwred ; deep-drawn sighs for the sufferings rthut Bob had gouo through , rand little smothered laughs at ! Hiomo of the old , well-remem- ftorod inconveniences of prison llfo : but then , ' ! * | } ob was u hero , and their sympathies were aught by the nobleness of his character mid i In Innocence of crime , iw though each ono of IH-SU vIlHuiis rccuguUcd how persecuted ho uid Bob had been. As the play progressed , their enthusiasm ncreased. Whwmvor Boh was hounded by n lotectlvo , or Ill-treated by the old Jew , they vould howl their Indignation nt the actors : imd when ho cumo out unscathed ut the end of the play , u monument bf perfect lunoceneo , J > .0y chwrod to the very echo.

Kenn Forgot Ills Idncs. During an ongagcmentat Liverpool , Charles Kean noted in the "Lndy of Lyons" throe or four times , Buys Temple Bar. For the first three representations the prompter was at hit > post regularly , and nil went smoothly ; on the last night , however , ho was unfortunately called nwoy. Claude commenced Jits descrip tion , as usual , with the words : "Nay , dourest , nay , If thou woulilst IUIAU mu paint the " At.this niDuuint lie fixed his eye on the spot where the prompter should have hocn , but found him not. 'T.ho Prince of Como paused and tried back , saying : "If thou vcouldst have mo paint I say If thou vrouhlst Iiavo mo putut too " Then ho collapsed utterly , exclaiming audi bly to Airs. Kc.m , who hud .in , vaiu attempted to prompt him : "It'snoiiso-Ellen ' " , - ; I'mflummuxedt" His most ludicrous mishap , nowover. oc curred in Belfast , when ho was noting Othel lo. Ho had just heard a bogus report of the death of his intimate friend Murray , the Edinburgh manager , which somewhat un hinged him. Ho got through his first scene without diftlculty , but when ho cmno to the apology , ho had barely uttered the first Hue. "Most potent , grave und reverend signers , " when his memory loft him altogether. Ho muttered anxiously to mo ( I was Oaasio ) : "What is it ? " In the innocence of my heart , I responded- "What Is what ! " "Tho word 1 The word 1" ho replied. "Which word ! " I ingeniously asked. "Why. the word I want I" Mint " saw i "i don't , , Know wwcii woru vou do wantl" Mrs. Kean and the prompter both saw something was wrong , and they uach tried to prompt him from the wings , but in vuln. At last a luminous idea occurred to mo. i wnispcrcu Jiuu tuo last line 01 mo Apology ; lie accepted the suggestion , mid boldly cutting out a hundred lines or more "in ono Jell swoop'1 ho exclaimed : "llore comes the lady lot her witness It ! " Whereupon , the entrance of the gentle DCS- domona got us out of our diniculty. Years afterward , when ho played WoUoy in his magnificent revival of "Henry VIII. " at the Princess , lie suffered more from ner vousness than ho hud over done , and it was alleged ( though I cannot vouch for It from my own personal knowledge ) that two young girls , who followed us pages In his trainwere carefully taught the words of Wolsey , so that in the event of his breaking down they might prompt him. A Vanished Composer. The mysterious disappearance of M. Cumillo SaluUSaens has lent now interest to all that concerns that eminent composer , says the New York Herald. Ho left Paris shortly be fore thu production of his lost lyric drama , "Ascanlo , " at the Grand opera , and , thougli it Is rumoiXHl that tie 1ms since been heard of in Venice , nothing definite is known of his movements. According to one rumor ho is wuudoriug about in the far east. Another re port locates him in n quiet nook near Purls. According to u third story ho is in a private lunatic asylum. For'somo time past It has been on open se cret thnt ho 1ms been painfully afflicted by the death of his. mother , whom lie adoredimd who had devoted her lifo to him. His deep depression had been increased by ro- iwated dinicultios with M. Hltt and Gail- hard , thu opera managers , in connection with the production of "Ascauio , " aud the strain upou the composer's mind at last became so Intolerable that In letters to his friends ho vowed hu would lice I'm Is before the fate of his now work was divided , feeling as ho did unequal to the excitement of success or failure. M Salnt-Saens is too well known hero to need much describing. For years past his works for organ , for piano and orchestra have been familiar in the concert room. None of his oj > onis have been played hero , but they , too. are partly known from the selections which have from time to time been played mid sung hero under the direction of Hcrr Heidi , Mr. iTheodoro Thonuu , Mr. Walter Dumrosch and Mr. Van der Slacken. The future author of "Lo Timbre d'Argcnt , " "Henry VIII. , " "Ktlcnno Marcel , " ' -Samson ct i Demon , " "Proserpine" and "Ascanlo" studied at the couscrvutolre.whcro his ox- traorJlniry talent and prodigious memory soon made him famous. Ho was for some time organist at the Madeleine , nud has long boon a distinguished pianist and a keen mu sical critic. In u private letter which has been shown mo , he announces that ho has closed his ca reer ns a virtuoso and for the present , at least , has noandoned his original intention of visiting America under M. Alficd Godchaux's management. For many years M. Saint-Saons courted unpopularity in. Paris by his warm defense of Wagner. Ho has since tempered his enthu siasm , though there are many signs in his works of the iullueuco of the Bayreuth iprophet. Ijostor AVulliick's Grave. Lester Wallack's grave lies in an isolated spot on the side of Woodluwn that slopes toward the NowIIuveii railroad , where it can bo soon from the car windows , says the Dramatic-Mirror. No stone or monument of any sort marks the resting place of our dead prince of come dians. Souio withered wreaths nud flowers strewn on the mound but emphasizes the jnclancholy sense of loneliness and desertion that the sight inspires. There was loud talk of a statue to Wnllack in the Central Park not long niter his death , and before the newspapers and the publicliau forgotten ho once lived. Would it not bo well for his family , or Theodore Moss , or if need bo , the profession , to place u simple stone ubovo this grove ] Nordlcn's Beautiful Home. Mrao. Nordica has a beautiful homo just out of London , surrotfudod by a largo garden , says the Now York World. When she Is in it she keeps house , weeds und trims her llower-beds , entertains company , hunts , rides , sails und plaA's tennis. She lias trophies from every city she has ever sung in , and the fit tings of her house are filled with bric-a-brac and ornaments , the gifts of admirers and friends. She has three pianos in her house , each of which she uses every day. W. J. Scanlan will mnko a forty-five week's tour next season. Marie Hilfordo will probubly blossom out ns u star next season. Stuart Itobson will spend his summer va cation in Cohassct , Mass. Robert Mantell expects to make a brief visit to Europe this summer. Laura Burt has uiad6 n hit as Fatlina in "Bluebeard Jr. " v W.

Agues Hcrndon has discharged her man ager , who is also her hnrbnnd , und Is adver tising for some one to look after her business atlalrs next season , Mary Anderson's Intimate London friends claim to have received positive information Irom the lady herself that , although she will soon take u husband , she will not abandon the stage. AJexauder Salvlni began his career ns a slur last week , acting in "A Child of Naples" and "Don Cic&ardu IJuzun. " Corinno may possibly bring out a now burlesque next season in addition to "Monte Cristo , Jr. , " and ' 'Arcadia. " Sam Harrison says : "Tho sostcnuto aud technique of Clara Morris' voice are below the ordinary , but her trills in the last act of 'Article uro equal to any prlinu donna's I ever heard. " Berlioz's "Beatrice- and Benedict. " with recitatives by Felix Mottl.was recently given for the first time nt the Vicuna opera and achieved success. This year the general breaking Up of the- tricul companies will take place May 10. Still another farce coined v has been broached. Tno name os It is "Irish Whisky.

Slio weighs 188 pounds of loveliness und is tall nt that , Jessie Mlhvurd has ! > ccn selected by Augus tus Harris to play thu heroines of Drury Lauo melodramas for the next three-yeura. It Is qulto probable that Emma Romcldl , of the Boston Ideals , will return to Europe , the scene of her former guooo * > es , next season. The latest Invention of Musical Germany is a mechanical conductor , a figure which beats time with mathematical accuracy at auy rate desired. i McGinty , so long persecuted in song , has been dramatized aud hid sufferings urc now visiblu to the nuked eye. A Spanish soldier of twenty-throe year ? , named Vniiti , has been found by a manager nt Cienfucgos , who hulls him ns n great tenor. W. G. Wills' blank voivo play of "Junnna , " which was produced originally in the London Court theater with Wilson Bariett and Hel ena Modjehka In the principal character ! ! , has been lowritten. Lilli Lehman's Norma is described as a wonderful performance , much more effective , even , than the characterization of Brunhilrto and otlior Wagner heroines. Her notion is said to bo superb in ite art nud its variety , and flho seems to revel hi the vocal ceauties of Delliul'a music. When an audience nt n theater in Santiago do Chili is displeased because of u change in the billit has its own way of expressing dis pleasure. On n recent occasion , When the play was shortened , the spectators wrecked the theater and compelled manager nud artists to flee for their lives. After Sarah Bornhardt appears in this country , Abbey nud Grati will take her to Briuil , and a tour of the greater part of the two continents will bo arranged to occupy two years. It is whispered among the cognoscenti that Colonel Ingcrsoll is the author of the praj er In "Money Mad , " which excited so much at tention in New York , aud which Mrs. Yea- mans speaks. It is said that negotiations. are about com pleted with M.

Prior to this under- talcing she will produce Mr. W. C. Hudson's icccnt dramatization of his novel , "Jack Gor don , Knight-Errant. " The play will probably bo brought out in Albany. Sarah Bernhurdtis to play "Joan of Arc , " iu London , and certain alterations will bo made in the dialogue ami action of the play Six stalwart Englishmen will no longer fall like rushes before the scythe-like weapon of the gallant maid and tliu jmltroonery of the island bulldogs ( tlioy would seem to have boon toy terriers iu tkoso days ) will have its pro- portionsjshorn n little. The name of the great tenor Gayarro will not soon bo forgotten iu Spain. A new thea ter is about to be opeue4 > atBurcelonu , which will bo called the Theater Guyarro ; while next mouth another , bearing the same name , will bo opened at Las Puluuis , on the Canary Isles. , Annie Plxley says it ta mot an easy thing to get new songs suitable for singing in pub lic. Out of a large number of ballads secured - cured for her last your by her European npx'iit , she could make ; use of only one , "Love's Old , Sweet Hong , " which is very popular on both sides of the sea. A new star. Marie Hubert Frohman , has anew now plav "Tho Witch , , " which pictures llfo during the time of the Puitans | , and borders on tragedy.

KINGDOM OF HEART AND HOME Ideal Sovereigns Omaha ToacLerj Would Have Govern Tlieni. MEN NEITHER STICKSUOE MONKEYS. The Woman Who Itloil/.es n Bis , lied- Fnoed ZUiui mid Iwdy Who Adores uu Adonis with I'crl'iinied Locks. There Is n molder of youthful ideas in the Dodge school who lias moutally painted to her own satisfactiou an idc-al man. She has fully her own share of the good looks of the city ; is neither u .bloiido nor n brunette , neither short nor tall , young nor old , but she has a pair of fine , expressive eyes , beautiful hair , a white , wcll-bhaped hand and a slender , graceful figure. She docs not want a hus band and has no intention of getting ouo ; but for the clingiiig-viuo specimens who must have an oak to cling to she recommends some thing like the following : "Ho must lie a man , not a stick nor n monkey with a cane and an eye-gloss. Ho must have some brains in his head and know , " ho.v"to use them. He must have money , bo- caubo ho is not n man among men in this ago of the world uuloss ho has. Ho must have position and independence aud nerve. Ho. must carry the purse himself and not bother - his wifewith his financial ditlicultics. if ho has tiny. Ho must bo polite and attentive to his wife , and in public und nt homo treat her ns any gentleman would n lady. But , above all things , ho must nut bo a 'softy.1 He must attend to his business and not make a MLss Motly of himself by interfering with the house nor the milliner's bills. Ho should bo bo self-reliant , so reliable nnd so much of a man that ho might remain nt liouio or go away and his wife would always feel that lie was nt nil times and would always it-turn to her ttio sumo an elegant , well groomed , well poked and-well regulated gentleman. " In the Mimu school them is n young lady with a snap iu her eyes nnd a firmncbs iu her lips which must indicatu something to the wife-hunter who has a different ideal. She says ; "I Iiato goody-goody men , I hate dignified , stralght-lnced old sticks nnd1 1mto weak- minded , driveling idiots who can't look utcn beer sign without getting drunk. I want a man who can keep himself and his wife without borrowing money or buying f umituro on the Installment plan. I want him to tuko a drink when ho feels like it , smoke n cigar when lie wants ono nnd If ho feels like it 'have u time , ' with his friends. I want him to Imvo a bank account big enough to buy new clothes for emergency occasions and 1 don't want him to .spend every minute ho isuotut work In dawdling around the houso. " At Izard school theio is n lady from whoso cheeks the worries'und.vexatlous of several terras of struggle with undeveloped minds has worn the first warm blush of youth nnd who is tlrcxl to death of the monotonous drone of the &choolroom , the iukv fingers and chalky dresses and the unutterable weariness of n duv-in-and-out drudge for dally bread. Her Ideal U a wooden man who would love her alone ) ; and spend his time how mid where ho saw fit. Ho must give her liberty , riches und oecaus of time to lultcr under the trees soothed liy the breath of the flowers nnd the music of the birds. Ho may bo n statesman or a brewer , it makes no difference to her so that ho surrounds her with muslu und beauty. A serious-faced girl in the satno building thinks that n man to make on ideal husband should be true and constant as steel. The broad and butter sldo of llfo is u minor con sideration , though no goal faithful man would see wife or children luck any of the comfoits of lifo. She would like him to bo a doctor era a clergyman oud loved und respected by everybody. She does not look for genius , but for sound common sense and a certain degree of refinement , A vivacious instructress in the Park school , whoso Uoik scorns to adore her aud who really has about as much use for n husband as for a white elephant , had a little fun with thu reportorial inquisitor iu this wise : "My ideal , ah ! ho is too awfully lovely for anything. Ho has a tull and slender figure , and dresses with immaculate taste. Ho has large , mournful , blue eyes shaded hv long dark lashes. Ho has the thin , delicately chiseled nose of n Greek god. A long , silky blonde mustache droops over a mouth of womanly sensitiveness. His work should all be done by ku > uKoutband ho should spend his time an his grand old library meditating upon the intlniteness _ of the whlcliness of the what and adoring hisudorod with nn udoiation that is terrifying in its intensity. " There is in ono of the rooms in the Pleasant school a demure little miss to whom some irreverent mortals would apply the adjective "cuddlcsome. " She has a pretty figure , dark hair nnd eyes , aud wears the neatest of garments. She gave a description of the orthodox ideal jnan as ho appears in the books , aud , growing confi dential , intimated that ho might bo all right as an ideal , but ho was considerable of a chestnut. "Now , what I like , " slio continued , "nnd you mustn't print it for the world , ib ono of these big , icd-fuced , two hundred pound men. They Imvo big voices , big hands and big hearts. They stride through the woild with a laugh on their lips and nil the little worries nnd jxjtty troubles of lifo are brushed away like cobwebs by their brawny hands. I know they drink lots of drinks and are bad in n good many ways , but there is nothing .small about them mid smallncss I despise. Then , you know , to most women it is some satisfaction to know that their protector is big enough and strong enough to elbow ills way anywhere. It does not make so much difference about his bruins so longns ho is not fool. I ' n don't want him to bo n pbilosopher nor n poet nor a musician , but I really would like him to know how to drive horses and train dogs. Something like the ini.nl typical English 'sriulre , I thiuk , is about my A pessimistic view is taken by ono of the tcnchiTH of the high school. Nature never intended her for n cynic. Slio is fur too bright , rosy und altogether interesting. She has blonde hair and wears all the flowers nho can get. She nays : "Anything with the least semblance of manhood is supposed to bo the sclmolma'nm's ideal , isn't It ? Well , it doesn't make so much dillcreneo after all. If I map out my journey down the years with a life companion who is of the Augusta J. Evans order , wlto poctires and rhapsodiros und yeains and nil that , the chances nro that I will some time find mvHclf linked to a clod who sumx up the good things of lifo under the heads uf eating , drinking , smoking und sleeping.

Hu may have genius , hut hu must not bo u crank. Ho must have refinement ami culture. Ho knows n good poem or piece of inu&io when ho hours It and ho loves , honors , protects und defends his 'wife with the devotion and chivalry of u medluivul knight.

Physically , ho was an Adonis who knew not , or , ut least , acemod insmiulblo of his graces. Mentally , while not a Webster or a Burke , ho was a man of bruins nnd with n .superb power of balancing qualities. Ho was ublo to attract and .deserve the attention und conunendutirm of the public , and at the sumo time possessed of social qualities which increased her pleas ure the more he achieved social distinction for himself. There was no hypocrisno ef feminacy in his chiinictur or disposition , be cause in her eyes these weaknesses would easily have stood revealed. In n word , hu was an migel without wings. He might at one time hue appeared upon the scune , If so , he had fulled in his dross parade or turned toother mortals whoso reception admitted him to more immediate if less blissful com munion of soul.
