Ilooltcd over the audience at tlio Boyd
ThanlisRlvlng ovcnlnR nml wondered it all
these people who Jammed the house from
orchestra mil to the last row in the ( jallery ,
the "Brass MonUoy for
wcro In attendance on
the purpose of enjoying Dramatic Art.
The scU-satlslled races of tlio spectators
told ft different tale. They worothereto inalto
for the sumo reasou
use of tlio performance
that the epicure takes his thlmual of crcmo
do inenthe , an aid to digestion.
They hna como , not to study , but to laugh.
It was ft holiday night and orco they were
out to enjoy themselves. And if the waves
of merriment which follow each oihor arc
any token , the dinners were well digested by
the time 11 o'clock sent the curtain down
after the Anal picture.
Audi wondered If there was such a thing
as Dramatic Art and a gloomy suspicion came
that it was the Mrs. Harris of the stage.
Whenever Betsy Prig desired to specially
Impress Satroy Gamp with the Importance of
her remarks , she invariably brought up her
"Missus 'Arris,11 until at last "ngurawatcd"
Iwyowl onUunuico , Snlroy burst out with the
memovnuloand crushing rcmai-k , "Betsy , I
bellovo there Is no sich person. "
You cot columns'of sormono , critical ana
otherwise-generally othcrwlso-ahout dra
matic art in the papers , In the pretentious
magazines , and books of essays arc published
In which dramatic art wallows and flounders
mm sploshes like a dwarf In a hath tub.
Your twinkling "star" from Dulutn and
vour old reliable stock actor who has "seen it
nil" invariably always have a dose of It wltli
them , to prove that tha stugo is going to the
"deuinltlon bow-wows" or is as near perfec
tion as It will over bo.
The bustling business manager and tlio val
uable press agent get In tlielr line work with a
regulation garnish of Dramatic Art and will
assure you that where Dramatic Art makes
her homo there ho may bo found.
Kvorybody in and out of the profession ,
from the colored gentleman who scrubs the
tuarblo steps that load up to IJpyd's to the or
dinary playgoer who looks with equal delight
upon Mr. llootli's Hamlet and the freaks of a
dime museum , talks as knowingly of this ttio-
ntrical Mrs. Harris as ho docs of base ball or
the last mill between tlio two lightweights
"Patsy the I'luggcr"mm "Jimmy the Killer. "
You Hud Dramatic Art talked about every
where , written up and written down , glori
fied and damned , worshipped and reviled ,
tenderly nursed and rudely kicked Into the
limbo of "palmy cay" rubbish but always
bobbing up serenely in argument llko the
eongin "OHvoftc , "ln criticism , in the litera
ture of the three-sheet poster and oa the
rostum.
It's a Mrs. Harris all the same.
If vou were to ask Mr. Bronson Howard If
there "is no sich thing us Dramatic Art , " Ho
would very Justly point you to " 0Id Love

If vou wore to usk Charles Jefferson If no

Charlie Pooro , who was with "Tho Main
Lino" last season , relates an amusing Inci
dent. The manager of his company was
standing at the door of the theater ouo even
ing when a tall , pawky-looking man stepped
up to him.
"How much is it to go Inter the show ! " no
Inquired.
"Oao dollar , down stairs. " .
"Wai , give mo a ticket. "
Ho was directed to the box office , and ho
laid down his dollar with a flno disregard for
expense. When the curtain fell ontliollrst
act ho sauntered into tbo lobby and , seeing
the manager , again approached him.
' That's a darn good ahowl I lilto it fust
rate. Como nnd have something. "
The manager went. When they returned
to the theater Mr. Uustlcus noticed that people -
plo were going Into the dress-circle , the stair
way to which led up from the lobby.
"Say , " ho asked , "hauo you not another
show up there' ' "
"Yes.- '
"Will , how much Is it)11 )
"Sovcnty-llvo cents. "
"Giinmo a ticket. "
Entering into the spirit of the thing the
manager tooic liis money nnd up to the dress-
circle went friend H , Ho came down at the
end of the second act.
' . 'Say , " ho remarked , "that show up there
is h good deal llko the one you'vo cot down
stairs , ain't It ! " And ho wnlked oil without
discovering that ho had been mnda the victim
of his own stupidity. TUB Louxaun.
"Lights nnd Shadows. " This favorite
with the amusement public will bo presented
at the Grand this Sunday evening with moro
than the usual care , New and special scenery
is provided which , together with , a largo and
very strong company will make the produc
tion an important one. The company unOer
the management of Mr. Frank C. Gaylor has
been touring the south and has mot with a
right royal welcon.o. The scenery , especi
ally the great den scene where , entirely un
expectedly , the audience is astonished at a
sudden llow of water precipitated npoa the
stage , creates a great deal of comment ,
"Fatherland" Is the title of the now pro
duction which will bo Introduced to our
theater-poors by that clover German com
edian nud sweet singer , Charles A , Gardner ,
at the Boyd this evening. There is no doubt
in the least that this gentleman has tnado the
hit of his life in his Impersonation of Herman
Leopold , the Tyrolean guide. The moral
taught In "Fatherland" Is a good one , and the
characters introduced In the play are copies
of people mot during a visit mndo by Charles
A. Gardner's brother a few years ago to the
Tyrol. Charles A. tiardnor has made a study
of the sturdy peasant , and can now claim the
honor of presenting n typo of character never
he/oro rightly pictured on the American
stage. Of course , there is plenty of singing
throughout the play why not ? The Tyrolean
Is Intensely musical by nature , and when
"Tho Lllao" and "Shut Your Eyes Tightly"
is sung by Gardner , it only goes to prove that
his reputation as holug a a wcot singer Is true
iu every particular ,
"A Straight Tip" This somewhat unique ,
ly named farce comedy by John J. MoN ally ,
Esq. , comes to Boyd's opera house Hlonday ,
December 1. It is said to bo as full of fun M
a healthy lemon Is of sourness ! It satirizes
with a delicate touch the uoblo science of rac
ing , and it serves to lutroduco for tha first
tltno Mr. James T. Powers into the starry
theatrical firmament.
For this lottcr every lover of farce com
edy , nud every ono who has over Been Mr.
Powers will bo devoutly thankful , " \Vton ho

His management , Charles J. Rich , of the
Hollis Street theater , Boston , nnd William

"Around the World , " the dramatization of
Jules Vcrno's celebrated story , will bo pre
sented on Thursday , December 1 , nt Boyd's '
opera houso. The play , under the direction
of Kiralfy Brothers , who , since their advent
in this country , have made a success'of all
they have undertaken , will ho presented with
nU the gorgeousncss of the spectacular drama.
The text of the play has been carefully re
vised and the ideas of the author have been
more closely adhered to than heretofore. The
largo number of novel and thrilling' stogo
effects which have been introduced go to
make the play ouo of thollnostof its class

that the railroad Is not completed. 'The trip
across India Is full of interest.
They arrive nt Calcutta too late to catch
the steamer for Japan , but special arrange

clipper ship nnd the steamer is overtaken In
mid-ocean. They reach Yokohama , and then
embark for San Francisco. From the Golden

nent on the Union Pacllic railroad in a blind
ing snow storm is full of interest and excite
ment. The train Is blockaded by n heavy
snowdrift , and Indians attack the train and
carry off u number of fcmalo passengers into
captivity. Telegrams nro sent to the com
mandant nt Fort Kearney for troops to save
the women from a fate worse than death.

Kohulort "Wan Unhappy.
Ono would scarcely Imagine when listening
to the beautiful compositions of Franz Schu
bert that their author was unhappy. The
great symphony in C major , and'tho "unfin
ished" symphony iu B minor , would not scorn
to ho the utterances of a 'despairing soul ; yet
as early us 1821 the composer wrote to a
friend , as follows :
"I fool myself tlio most wretched nnd un
happy being In the world : Imagine a man
whoso health will never como right again ,
and who In his despair grows restless and
mattes things worse u man whoso brilliant
hopes have all como to nnught , to wnom the
happlpcss of love and friendship offers
nothing but sorrow nnd bitterness , ono whom
the feeling , the Inspiring fooling at least , of
the beautitul threatens to abandon" forever
and ask yourself whether such u on a must
not bo miserable , Every night , when I go to
sleep , I hope that I may never wako again ;
and every morning renews ttto 'grief of ycs-
tcrdny ,
The "Unfinished Sympony , " ono of the
most remarkable productions of Fnlnz Schu
bert's genius , has something of a history. It
remained , llko the other symphonies of Schu
bert , entirely unknown for many years after
thofomposers's do.itb , but unlike thorn was
not in the possession of Schubert's brother ,
Ferdinand.
That symphony was discovered about the
year 1800 at a house in the suburbs of Vlonnn ,
or ut least not far from the city. How'it
came there no ouo seems to know ; hut
Schubert was not particularly careful about
his manuscripts , nnd may Have left it there
upon seine excursion ami forgotten nil about
it. Fortunately it escaped the fate of one of
his opera scoresportions of which were used
to light the lire and falling Into the hands of
a musician was given to the world.
During a trip to Europe which Mr , Theo
dore Thomas made in 1S07 ono of his friends
( Helmesborgor , If memory servos ) Invited
him to visit the conservatory nnd hoar the
pupil's orchestra , which at that time was ono
of considerable excellence , adding that they
would play for him a new symphony by Schu
bert. The symphony proved to lie the newly
discovered ono , anil Mr. Thomas Immediately
made arrangements to secure a score. It was
shortly after issued from n Viennese musio
house , nnd Mr. Thomas brought It before the
Now York public upon his return , ho playing
it for the first time in this country.
It is n fact not generally known that the
\vorhl is indebted to Knpcllmlcstcr Johann
Herbcck for the discovery and rescue of this
priceless treasure from that destruction which
has overtaken so many stray works of art in
the past some of them of great value , as for
example the missing settings of the "Pas
sion , " bv Bach , and other compositions by
various writers which have vanished In the
course of centuries , though their names have
boon recorded.
Herbeck Is also entitled to a great amount
of credit for bis labors in making known
Schubert's works for male chorus.
