"lCvnngellno" drew a largo nudienco Sat urday evening, but It wns not n satisfactory performance. Tho company was Inferior, tho costumes weru old nnd tho stnging not ns gor geous as peoplo had renron to oxiectlu olio of Rico's burloMpios. I notlco, by tho way, that whllo tho play Is still rnlled "Rico's Kvongellno" tho owners nnd mnniigcrs nro Rich Hi RoHcnlmuni. H. K. Rico Is ono of thoso clover fellows who have n genius for conducting nn enterprise In most details ex cept thnt of making financial cuds meet. Rice's theatrical eo lipnnles have inndo big monoy, nud In "The Corsair" ho lias given a gorgeous sK-ct4iclo; but ho Is nlwnvs In debt, with hungry creditors after him constantly. They had him Jailed In St. Louis n.nliort time ngo. Tho wonder Is how tho 'ollow has con tinued to do business nil thorn years. Tho change In tho ownership of "Kvaugelino" would Indlcato thnt Rico Is getting to tlio end of his string or thnt ho has rental out tho uso of his name and his play. But to return from tho digression. An ex trnvngnnzn deMn(U greatly on its novelty, tho unexpectedness of Its funny business, to catch tho public favor. Many hnd seen "Kvaugelino" Iwfore, and it proved to bo very, very chestuutty. Goorgo Fortescuo, for example, docs almost Identically tho same business that ho did twelve or llfteou years ngo. The "gng" nU ut Iwlng nfrnld to go in to tho water, tho llttlo fan, tho sitting on Lo Diane's kneo nnd falling on his neck, tho swirl of tho skirts, tho puns they nro nil ns gray hnired as George himself nnd have a much hoalthlor crop of whiskers. As au extrava gant burlcsquo on femininity Fortescuo is n success, but ho really ought to do n llttlo thinking nnd got up some now business. Ho might hnvo to tnko a week off to search his IHTton for his thinking npiarntus, but surely tho public Is entitled to tomo consideration. It ho cannot do thnt ho might get something fresh by studying nu almanac published be fore tho Revolution. Then there Is tho "Ione Klshorman." Llttlo if anything has been ndd cd since poor Harry Hunter created tho part, Mr. Malllt Is advertised as tho original of this chnriicter,but hu Is not, mid to my mind Hun ter played the imrtbctter Ho did not have tho nppenrnnro of having tho milk of human kindness soured on his stomach. Ho did not project himself Into tho play proper, as Mat lit does, and ho gave tho character touches which his successor does not attempt. Hun ter did nil tho business thnt Is put In tho pint today, with possibly a single exception. Muf 11 1 may hnvo Introduced thothrco-enrd-monto by-play I cannot recall It In Hunter's ver sion but otherwise ho has put not a single now thing into tho part, Tim last preceding tlmo I saw "Kvaugelino" Anna Boyd played ' Vnngle" and Fay Temple ton, with n figure nnd n chlo to mnko men I ave, was tho dashing "Unbrlollo." But w hut n queer, Jumbled life theatrical people havol Fay Templeton desei ted tho company In tho middle of tho season nnd Joined her lover, a rich young New Yorker, In Paris. If thoro IxirtB which como from that gay city bo true Fay Is playing tho madcap in n stylo to astonish the natives. But her friends Niy sho has lieon maligned by Jealous rivals. For Instance, tho story uliout her dressing in n man's clothing, going out upon tho street mid creating n sceno nnd getting nrrested Is at tributed to IiuIso Montague. Tho writer mot Fny n fow years ngo nnd found her gracious and wearing an unexpected dignity. Tho Templeton family, father, mother and daughter, were nt the head of a cluvcr opera compiiny.Thoy played "Mascot" (with Fay In tho title roll) mid John Temploton as Princo Lorenzo),"01lvet," "Glrollo-Glrolla,"oto ,and to all outward npjieariinceH thoy were a pros perous, happy family. A fow weeks ago I met Mis. Templeton between tho nets of "Zlg Zng," Curiously enough, Anna Boyd was tho leading lndy of tho company. John Templeton has remarried or Is aliout to. Tho lending man of tho "Zlg-Zag" company told mo confidentially that ho expected to marry Mrs. Templeton, and the evident fondness with which they icgnrded each other was presumptive uvldeiico of his truthfulness. memory. It wa n rich treat and hnd tho oorii stopped there fow would have been dis satisfied.

Tho greot warbler and tho world's greatest vocal artiste did not lxiss through Nebraska without being mimi and heard by hundreds of LIucolultCH, notwithstanding the fact that Omaha was tho only city In the state that was honored by n visit. For tho evening per formance on Monday "II Trovatom" was thu bill, mul Big Tuniagno, tho renowned tenor, was to hnvo taken tho lending role, but owing to "Indisposition" Slg. Vlclul mng tho part. Aboutkoventy-tlvo Lincoln people were noticeable In tlio largo audience mul fcoomed to enjoy tho mnny tuneful nira of tho opera, njlhougli they understood not n word "Tro vntoro" contains u remarkable number of pretty nlrs, among them many that are heard In concert selections, and strikes the auditor who for tho first tlmo hears the opera with pleiiMtnt surprise, Tnmnguo's substitute, Slg. Viciui, was not at his liest, but to tho average listener's car, was quite acceptable. Mmdo. Nordlcn was In excellent volco nnd of course was appreciated. But tlio great event was Tuesday' matinee. Who ever heard of a Ttiewlay miitlneo I Thnt, however, was not considered. -It was Pattl day, and that was sutllcleut Inducement to draw a crowded houso, no matter how largo tho place, at any lime, even though it had been given before noon, and on any day, Tho program was "Tlio Barber of Seville" with Pattl as "Roslun " Although not of tho heaviest of Italian operas, it was novertho less enjoyed for what matters what tho bill, so long as Pattl Is In tho cast, Tho piece, nl though of llttlo plot or action, contains some bright music, nud the vnrlous voices were ex ceedingly well brought out. Pattl did not appear on tho stage until the last hnlf of tho first act, but when the fair songstress skipped from behind the wings tho applause was deafening and prolonged. She very grace fully acknowledged tho compliment and seemed thoroughly appreciative of tko lm menso enthusiasm In her uolialt. , Many who saw Pattl for tho first time wero quite surprised to note her clear and thor oughly artistic acting. It seemed to be the idea that the great prima donna was consiuer edonly In thollghtofaqueenofsong. ThlsU a mistake, for on tho operatic stage the little woman was a iierfect model of graceful dra- matlo expression. In tho second net where "Counto D'Almavira," "Roslna's" lover, diss gulsed as tho muslo toacher, asks her to sing her lesson, sho sang one of her favor iUs, "II Baeio" by Slg. Ardlttl. At tho con clusion two ushers appeared on the stage car rying an Immeiiso tloral harp, l feet in height. This was followed by numerous other tloral presentations, and the applause was even greater than when the inndame flrst apenred on the stage. She accepted tho honors In her usual aimauie manner. In answer to this demonstration tho opening notos of "Home, Sweet Homo" wero played by the orchestra, and again tremendous ap plause was heard. There has been so much said, and said In such deft and glowing terms, regarding Pattl's rendition of this popular song that we acquiesce In tho presumption that wo are Incapable of doing the effort Jus tice with pen and type. It was something bo vond our humble description, and the faint, soft strains that echoed through the large Coliseum building still ring pleasantly in our Tho second edition of Chorrier's Lincoln city directory, to which our citizens nro now looking forward with considerable eagerness, owing to tho fact thnt last year's has liecome, through old nge, of llttlo or no account, is In the hnuds of tho printers, nml fairly under wny.
