The Hrcmid Mijlit.
The second nmht of the National Opera
company's ongngctnunt nt tlio exposition
builihng witnessed tlio performance of
tlio Krand opera "holiunjjren , " by Kich-
nrtlVngner. . In point of numbers tlio
audience , perhaps , surpassed that of the
iiifilit before , though it was more cold
and npnthctic.
Tlio stngu mounting , tlio * scenery , the
'costumesvero niagnillccnl in every de
tail. Altogether the performance passed
oll'snioothly , nnd though somewhat Jong ,
was by no means tiresome. It was ex
actly live minutes to 13 o'clock when the
curtain dropped on tlio last secnu.
Tim I'orTorinancc.
As already intimated , the stage setting
of ' 'Lohengrin1' was magnificent beyond
description , ilverything was on a scale
of unparollcled splendor nnd the chorus
made a volume of sound that was majes
tic and thrilling. The only disappoint
ment of the audicnco was in tlio leading
soprano , IScrtha Pierson. It seemed
strangely incongruous with the perfec
tion of everything else attending the per
formance that the strong part of Elsa
should have been entrusted to a soprano
with an cxiispernting tremolo that made
her sing out of tune nearly all through
tint opera. The tremolo is the rankest of
nfluctation and as such is derogatory to
tlio high standard of the company. Miss
Ticrson's voice is absolutely devoid of
any harmonious properties and oven in
the ensemble passages stood out above
nil others shrill and penetrating. Her
stage presence is unusually tmo and her
notion in some measure atoned for her
vocal deficiencies. Myron \Vhltncy as
the king had the best possible oppor
tunity to display his magnificent voice.
His grand organ tones were full
of melody. and yet contained
suHiciont power to fill the building better
than any other of the singers. Cornelia
Van Xantou failed to supply the comple
ment of melody that was lacking in the
other principal female part. Her volco
is a very robust mezzo soprano abso
lutely without sweetness except in her
lower range of notes , where some good
tones were heard. She sang with a de
gree of dramatic fervor that won some
recognition. William Ludwig as Telra-
niund was again a most grateful feature
with his ( ino voice , superior presence and
forceful acting. William Carididus acted
Lohengrin with considerable spirit and
sang tlio part as well as a tenor voice of
medium excellence will allow. The
orchestration was the foundation of the
entire performance.
Ijnktnc.
Tlio small and apathetic nudicnco at
the matinee yesterday afternoon was dis
creditable to musical culture here and
disheartening to those who lilled with
Mich painstaking care the requirements
of Dclibo's opera "Lakmo. " The perfor
mance was in every way worthy of the
company nnd taken in its entirety , gave
no scope for criticism. 'Jho scenery was
of the tropics and the local color was
artistically preserved throughout even
in the make up of the dancing irirls. Pau
line I/Allemand sang the title role with
great conscientiousness considering tlio
Jack of inspiration and displayed many
points of excellence as well as
homo deficiencies. Her face is
incapable of expressing tragic
feeling and the poor quality of
tone in her lower ran go detracted from
the force of her recitative. The vibration
of some of her notes occasionally throw
nor off the koy. Her upper tones are
Tory beautiful , soft and sweet , yet won
derfully telling. Her execution , as dis
played in her solo in the second act , is
remarkable for ease .and accuracy and
would compare with any prima donna
on the stage. Alon/o Stoddard as Mil-
nknutha. tlio lirahmm priest , made an
obvious impression by his line singing
nnd dignified presence. His voice is
large and sonorous and was handled with
skill. Matlldrt Phillips took an incon
spicuous part as as did also Jessie Bart-
letl Davis. The former is valuable prin
cipally for her reliability. Her voice ,
though of considerable range
and power , never was agreeable
owing to her bad use of it and straining
after cheap oiled by feeling for phenom
enal low notes that sound as if they came
from an mnpty bnrrol. Chas. Uassctt ,
as Gerald had some heavy work that ho
performed acceptably but not brilliantly.
His voice seems inferior to his intel
ligence nnd is too limited , both as to vol
ume and quality for the nxictionn ot the
pails for which ho is cast. Wm. Leo
traa comiiotout though not conspicuous ,
nnd displayed a very line baritone voice
nnd considerable vim in action.
linkmo.
A moro judicious selection than that of
the opera of "Lakmo , " to bo given be
tween two of Wagner's music dramas ,
could scarcely have boon made. A cer
tain amount of
intellectual fatigue ns
vroll as enjoyment results from listening
to the musio of the creator of the new
school of opera , which demands an oc
casional respite , and the exquisite musio
of Do'libcs , full of tuneful melodies and
abounding In graceful or.chestration ,
affords the very relief desired , at the
same time serving ns an admirable
fall to tlio weird and sombre grandeur of
the "Flying Dutchman" and the bril
liancy nnd wealth of dramatic fervor of
the "loibmotlvo" of "Lohengrin. "
"Lakmo" ficrved to introduce two or
t'ireo ' singers who were not heard Mon
day night. Among them Miss L'Alle-
Bittiid easily lumlt ) in her impersonation
ot the title rolo. Her voice i.-i a wire so
prano of wonderful range and remarka-
Llo brilliancy in the tipper register. Her
brilliancy and cnso in attaining high
notes was particularly demonstrated in
the "JJoll Song , " when she hold E in nit
with astounding clearness and facility.
1 hough at times tx trille nasal and unmelodious -
lodious there Is a sweetness and ptirurress
to her voice that is extremqly attractive.
As an artist she deserves much praisn.
Mr. Sloddard as "ftiltik.tntha" ranks
next to the "Lakmo" of MissL'Allcmand
vocally and dramatically. While his
voice has not the richness of Mr. I.ml-
wig's , it is a baritone of much sweetness
with great powers of.expression , ami hit ;
rendering of "Lakme , tnv soft looks are
o orclouded" wai particularly fiuo.
Mr. llassott was not suited to the part
ot " ( Jcrald , " his voice being too light and
ins acting cold and colorless.
I < oti < m ; rln.
Lohengrin being oho of the most popu
lar of Wagner's operas , both for lU
.never . censing melodies , and for its u-
porb dramatic opportunities , U therefore
always chosen by an opera company as
their "ploco do resistance , " and the ono
occasion for them to put before the pub
lic their beat talent. This was not evi
dently the idea of the NatlannI opera
r , for I 4 they purposely tried ,
they could not have placed before an
expectant public a weaker cast than the
ono that presented Lohengrin last even
ing. The "miso en scene" was magnifi
cent , considering the little tlmo they had
to get things together , and the whole
character of the stage and its accessories.
The overture , which Is ono of the most
melodious of any of Wagner's operas ,
win played in a most creditable manner ,
though as usual tlio tendency to
brinir iorward , to nn unnecessary
prominence , the brass and tfie
cimbnlK did not fail , and crashing above
everything they too heavily underlined
the "forto" passages of that n.iijustio
overture. Whv .Miss llertha Piorson
should have bcon selected for "Elsa" in
stead of Miss Eminst .Jtich is incompre
hensible. From her very first appear
ance It was evident she could not uphold
the exigencies of the pait , and at times it
was painful tohear , her never-ceasing
"vibrato" try to make itself conspicuous
In the grand concerted numbers. It is
also to lie regretted that Mr. Candidas
did not begin the opera as ho ended it ,
for his delivery of the famous "Swan
Song" plainly showed that lie either was
utterly out of voice , or that ho never
should undertake to sing the part of
Lohengrin , "Knight of the Holy Grail. "
Air. Uandidus , nevertheless , deserves
great credit for the way ho withstood
the break-down of the orchestra in
the last act , a few bars before his "Fare
well" to Elsa. Whether it was caused
by the longing ot tlio musicians to "got
through" to catch the night train for the
ivvst , eager for now Holds of conquest , or
whether it was the "baton" of Mr. Ilein-
rich's that was at fault , it is hard to toll ;
but it certainly was the unfortunate
error of somebody. Owing however , to
the coolness of Mr. Candidus , who never
departed from his score , in a very few
seconds the harmony was at rights again.
Mr. Whitney's King Henry was a very
fine vocal ell'ort from beginning to cud.
His clear , subdued , rich voice was in its
usual fine condition ami in the."ensemblo"
of the first net whore ho comes forward
to the footlights , above all could easily
bo distinguished those deep mellow notes
of the gtcat oratorio sincor.
Mr.Lndwigas KrederickTelramtind was
not ns strong in many ways as ho was ns
the Dutchman , owing principally to the
fact that ho did not have the occasion to
show any great dramatic force which ,
with the aid of his glorious voice , gives
him the place ho now occupies upon tlio
grand opera stage. The most generous
thing that could uo said of Ortrud is that
slio did her best , and gave great spirit to
her part nt times. Her singing was harsh ,
extremely unsympathetic and her Hatting
was only too anparcnt. It is sincerely to
bo hoped that the fatigue of the journey
and tlio extra largo auditorium were the
evils that caused these defects to bo PO
glaring. On the wliolo the performance
was certainly not a strong ono and if
it had not been for the beautiful scenic
effect ana the good work of the orches
tra , "Liohongrin , " to the lovers of good
musio and followers of the great com
poser , would have left anything but a
satisfactory impression. I. li.
Notes.
There was no ballot last night.
The high liat nuisance was moro con
spicuous than ever.
Tlio full dress coats were not so num
erous as on Monday night.
Altogether the engagement of the
American Opera company was a success ,
although the receipts were not what they
should have been. The figures for the
receipts of the entire throe performances
arc not yet obtainable.
Caudidus scored a decided hit. The
fact that there was no ballet in "Lohen
grin" proved a disappointment to moro
than ono man last night. Then some of
the ladies probably felt a trillo disap
pointed , but managed to conceal their
chagrin.UOUND

train of Wagner sleeping coacfics , eight

The drill is now in limestone.A large
quantity of water was pouring ont of the

ILLINOIS' ALIEN LAND BILL.
The Mermiro Directed at A Hack-
llcntlng Irish Landlord.
CrtioAoo , April 12. [ Special Telegram to
the Ur.K.J The alien laud bill was advanced
to a thhd reading In the nonnto to-tlay. The
iuo.i9uro , It Is thought , will surely bo passed
by both houses , and Governor Oplesby will
be clad to give It his approval. The bill pro
vides that hereafter alien * , before being al
lowed to purchase laud In this state , shall
dec In re their Intention to become citizens ot
the United Stntc * . Should they fall to take
out their naturalization pnpcra within six
years thereafter , such lands shall revert to
the state. The bill also provides that all
nllens who now hold lands In this state shall
become citizcim within thro years after
the passage of the bill. Tlio mo. anu
Is aimed specially nt a r.ick-reut-
Inir Irish landlord named Scully ,
who has ninde himself notorious
tin two continent * . Twenty vears ago In
Tipnorixry , Ireland , Scully L-alnetl an unenvia
ble notoriety owing to Ills conduct toward
his tenantry. It Is contended that ho evicted
without mercy and was detested even by the
tools ho used in carrying out the law's cruul
decrees. The scandal which he caused
prompted the Gladstone land net of 1S70.
Scully has secured title to thousands of
ncrus In Illinois , his chief holdlnss being In
Logan county , nnd l.s doing his best In trans
plant the rack renting system In thH com
monwealth. The farmers surrounding his
territory dislike Ills methods , nnd the state
legislators have npp.iroutly made up their
minds that the tellow must do his rack rent
ing elsewhere.

to tlio nnu. ] Speaking of PattTsulirst ap
pearance In La Tr.tvlata at the Metropolitan
opera house lust night , the Tribune
says : She was In nil things the
same ns of old. She was the same
musical miracle that critics of this
generation will never cease marvelling
about. She was also the same brilliant crea
ture that it has so long been n pleasure to
look upon , nnd also the same dear bundle ot
pretty affectations , simulated surprises and
counterfeited emotions that everybody Is
perfoico compelled to look upon with amia
bility , because they do not harm her singinc ;
and do servo to actuate the Individuality of
her , whom the world delights to honor , sun
was the same , too , iu that sha was surrounded
by those who , in every respect were but lolls.
Artistically , she had but ono companion ,
Slgnor ( ialassl , who sanz like the whole
hearted , enthusiastic artist that ho Is. The
audience was n numerous one , but outside of
the boxes It was'not brilliant In appearance.
The parquet looked lather sombre and was
not cntlicly full. The balconynnd dross cir
cle , however , were crowded. It Is safe to es
timate that to the managers the house repre
sented 310,000. The speculators on the walk
In trout of the opera house were not satis-
lied with tlio business. Before the first act
was over the parquet scats , which had cost
the speculators ST were ottered for S4.
Madame Patti received nn ovation after the
fust act , and was called out over and over
again in the course of the evening , and each
time overwhelmed with ( lowers.

Dr. McGlynu Coldly Received.
CINCINNATI. April l-3. Dr. McGlynn ar
rived tins morning , Some of his friends de
sired to Introduce him to representative bus
iness meu of the chamber of commerce , and
to that end asked Major John Byno , of the
Chesapeake & Ohio road , to make the intro
ductions. Major liyno declined , saying that
ns a Catholic loyal to the precepts and au
thority of Ills church , lie had no sympathy
with Dr. MeGlynn's position , nnd that ns a
good citizen he could not lu any sense iec-
osnlzo the false theories which the doctor
was attempting to propagate. As a member
of the chamber of commerce the same views
compelled him to decline. Others who weio
approached took the name position , and thus
Dr. McGlynn was not n visitor on 'change.
To-night Dr. McGlynn delivered his lec
ture "Tho Cross of n Now Crusade" at
Music hall. The lecture was tinder the man
agement of thn Henry George club. On the
platf01 in were member * of the club as well
a * prominent members of the labor party ,
which recently came so near capturing the
offices of this city. There were no Catholic
clergymen on the stae , and none apparent
in the niidionce. The assembly tilled nearly
hall'of tlio lar/o hall and numbered perhaps
2,000. _
