DUNRAVEN SHOULD APOLOGIZE London Press Agrco that is the Only Course Open to Him Now , NEW YORK REPORT GENERALLY ENDORSED AcociHn It nn Plnnt nnil Coni- litcfillM Km Tone nn Courteous to n llrKrce Senrccly War- rnntcil J > y thu OIU-IIMC. ( Copyright , 1895 , liy IYes * Publishing Comtiiny. ) LONDON , Feb. 1. ( New York World Cablegram Special Telegram. ) A World rep resentative , who called nt Lord Dunravcn'a Lpndcn residence , 27 Norfolk street , Park Ltne , today , wan Informed that his lord * fillip denied lilmMlf to Qfery one , Mr. Hamilton , his secretary , who recently accompanied him to Now York , * old : "Wo have had numerous Inquiries ot this same purport today from Journalists , and have nlven the same answer to all , I don't know whether Lord Dunravcn will make any state ment on the report , but , obviously , If he docs if Is not the sort ot thing to bo done In a hurry. He will probably mike none , and ho certainly will give no interview , The World will bo promptly Informed of his ultimate decision. " Mr. Askwlth , Dunraven's counsel at the Inquiry , was alpj seen at his rooms In Wai rlngham Houos. He , likewise , declined to say anything on the report at present. "The report requires , " ho said , "scrutiny and care before expressing an opinion. " Arthur Glennlo Is out of town. The World's correspondent at Cowes saw Secretary Grant cf the Koyal Yacht squad ron , who wald : "I consider the report satis factory and I think Lord Dun raven will apologize. It U reported that ho admits his error. " Barring the Times' grudging admission that the report was thorough and 'authorita tive and Its failure to exproaj the opinion that It was also conclusive ot Lcrd Dun- raven's error , the London press has been unanimous po far as It has yet spoken In saying that the report Is courteous to a degree gree- even of mildness In rebuking Lord Dun- raveno groundless charges. The Chronicle , as the World has already cabled , speaks ot the charges as "monstrous" and says that no course Is now npcn to htm but "Instant and complete apology. " ONLY ONE WAY LEFT. The Morning declares there Is no course : left for the owner of Valkyrlo but to with , draw his allegation. "The decision of the New York Yacht club will , wo are aurc , be loyally accepted by Lord Dunravon and his follow yachtsmen here , and the best way to show this will bo to make an early effort to win back America's cup. " Rvcn Mr. Astor'a , Pall Mall Gazette , no torious since the beginning of the contro versy for thick and thin defense of Dun ravcn and abuse of American yachtsmen , heads its summary of the report : "Lord Dunravcn's Charges Courteously Refuted. " The Westminster Gazette Bays : "We have always given Lord Dun'raven credit for good Intentions In this matter and wo can't doubt he will now set himself right by an ample and graceful apology. " The St. James Gazette does not mince words. Its column leader says that most Insulting charges were made by Dunraven on the flimsiest evidence possible , and that "the New York YacSit club has given his lordship a Wrvero lesson In fairness and good manners. No fair minded man can deny that the word mistake Is the mildest which could be used. " The Gazette's concluding statement that "put ting everything else aside he owes It to hlm- uelf as a gentleman to apologize to those whom ho has accused , without due Justifica tion , " Is practically the sentiment of every English yachtsman. Lord Dunraven's delay In making this apology , If prolonged beyond a reasonable time , will subject him to ttio se verest criticism among Influential English sportsmen. ISELIN GOES EAST. C. Oliver Iselln left London a week ago for Cairo. Thr statement cabled here that ho was the bearer of the committee's report to the Royal Yacht Squadron was sent by a news agency , and like much other American news lately cabled by the same agency , both from New York to London and from London to New York , has proven to be not only false , but extremely mischievous. Its rabid war nowa during the past few weeks In con nection with Germany and the Transvaal was almost uniformly preposterous , when not merely exaggerated , the present situation amply showing Its utter lack of truthful foundation , as compared with the World's accurate advices. Lord Dunravcn Is not taking his new yacht Carlado to the Mediterranean regattar this spring , which will bo the first season ot many that ho has not been represented there. Allsa has already left the Solent for the south and Britannia Is expected to follow her shortly. Lord Dunraven's twenty- " rntor , Audrey , would , In the opinion of yachtsmen , have an excellent chance of capturing womo cf the best prizes In her clara on the Riviera , but her owner Is evidently out of sorts with lifs favoilto sport at present. Mr , Rose's Satanlta , bought by him Just bcforo his abortive challenge for the America's cup , has alro boeu sent to the Mediterranean. BALLARD SMITH. Ol'THIDKltS HAIK A GHIO.Vr DAV.

I'HILADnM'HIA , Feb. l.-The rowing authorities of the University of Pennsyl vania have Just concluded nrrangcments for nn tlfiht-oarcil shell race between the University freshman crew nnd the regular crew of the Naval Academy nt Annapolis. The time and place have not yet boon agreed tipon , but U Is probable that the race will toke place at Annapolis during the latter part of May. For the lust two doasons the Pennsylvania 'varsity crew has riiwcit with the middles , nnd In Irath con tests lin-f easily defeated Uncle Sum's pu pils. This year It was thought that a more even contest would take place If the fresh man crow , Instead of the 'varsity , repre sented Pennsylvania. The middles readily assented to this proposition. This means that Pennsylvania will have throe distinct nnd sopnrnto crows this Miilnj ? . There , wl'.l bo the 'varsity crew , which will meet the 'varsity crews of Har vard , Columbia nnd Cornell In June. There will also bo two freshman crows. This Is necessary because of the regulations of the ficshmnn race drawn up by Harvard. Col umbia nnd Cornell. Those exclude the medical , Icfrnl nnd other students of Pcnn- Fylvanla , who have previously taken col- leF'ato ' courses. Pennsylvania , In order to Ket Into this freshman race , Making It a sequel to the quadrangular 'varsity race , was compelled to agree to this. The fresh man crew that will row against the Anna- polls cadet.s will , however , bo composed of any men pursuing first year work nt the University of Pennsylvania. This will keep In prnctlce the men In the professional schools , who will bo likely candidates for the 'varsity crow in the future. Otto F. WoRonhurst , for four years a 'varsity oars man , will direct the training of the two freshman eights. The prospect of three peed races for Pennsylvania crews this sea son has stimulated Interest In rowing mat ters Immensely and has had the effect of bringing out n promising lot of candidates.

The * group of tragedians who appeared In the merry piece first mentioned wcro n melancholy reminder of le Wolf Hop per and the others who originally presented It. It would be Interesting to note the demeanor meaner of Hopper It he should watch from the front a performance of "Wang" with never a laugh from overture to final curtain. One has never bcsn accused of a fondness for the methods or the personality ot Miss Delia Fox ! but even her presence among the Truss forces In the part of Malaya , the prlnco , might have tended to ralso the spirits of the audience. It Is said that "Wang" will bo retired after this wason , and that Is giving It a longer lease of lite than some who saw It last week would bo Inclined to allow. The vaudeville entertainment which opened the week at the Crelghton started out -with a patronage largo enough to stand the fallIng - Ing oft ulilcli occurred later In the engage ment. Considered as aliolc , It was , as nald before , not the worst variety show ever seen here , and not the best , either , by any mean a Some features of It were so good that , If that quality had been maintained throughout , the bill would haVe been ot sur- pat-3lng merit ; whllo others wero.so poor that they hurt tire average severely. Cer tain commercial features of the performance grated on the nerves of old-fashioned people plewho , although they recognize the pre eminence of Mr. Walter H. Ford as n writer of songs , would have been grateful If he and the other vocalists had not. confined them- stives so very strictly to the performance of his own works , duly advertised by the storeoptlcon ; and some of these folk are S3 sensitive that they could have wished that the midgets , whos * "turn" was unde niably clever and amusing upon the stage , had not been quite so keen after the quarters which flowed In from the sale of their photo graphs , that they had little time for friendly Intercourse , "In several languages , " with members of the nudlcnce. It Is likely , how ever , that such persons as those are over particular. At any rate , Mr. Fulgora Is returning next season , when he v.Hl doubtless get the wel come ho deserves. 'His own keen managerial Judgment will probably dictate changes for the better In his entertainment against his second coming. He Is not likely to have much trouble , ton Instance. In filling Mr. Tom Mack's place , nor Mr. Ryan's , and If he will take a suggestion , meant In all kindness , from The Beeho will jconflno his own atten tion to the burineSS'rind of the enterprise and hire another "transflgurator , " who can work the mechanical < : chartgo appliances equally well , and who Will look the characters In tended to be represented a great deal better. Mr. Fulgora should dot sing , nor allow the Sisters Gchruo to. do ? , so ; and above all , he should not recite ; this well-meant advice If he does not spurn vice , he'will come'back ' next year with at tractions calculated to please both galleries and parquet , andtto-appeal not only to Sun day audiences , but 'also to that class of theater-goers which , without preferring variety entertainment above all others , yet knows and likes aireally first-class vaudeville. The coming week ! has a distinctly brighter look , as any weelc must have which Includes engagements of May Jrwln , Henry E. Dlxey , James O'Neill and Daniel Sully. This la an unusual conjunction flt good things , and It Is hoped that-ovfrry.'ond'pf the artists who come may have reason to bo .glad . that they did not take John G.I Saxe's advice in regard , to Omaha , and "for , God Almighty's sake , go 'round It !

Close ropes at hand stands a rack holding the art ist's colors , and under the magic of his touch , like that of a genie summoning the impossible from an ethereal world , there spVmg Into existence gorgeous cava cades of and dim vistas troopers , gay courtiers , castles [ la that pungent smell ot chemi cals , ever ae clat6d with the regions back ot the drop curtain , and another undefinable odor which never emanates from anything elBO than a glue factory , for In truth It Is ue and enters very largely Into the composition g position of a stage picture. "You see , I mix glue in equal p-arts with water and chemicals to form my colors , " said the painter In ex planation , "and I flnd that when once thor oughly applied to the canvas they-rarely rub off except by hard knocks and Ions usage. All my colors , " continued he , "are what may be termed water colors , and are much darker when first put on than after they become dry This la one of the greatest obstacles that the novice encounters In learning the rudiments of the trade , and I have seen many old workmen give up In despair after trying to produce certain tints required. ' used In "Of the varlous'-forms of scenery ntageland ' the main divisions are 'wings , ' ? flats. 'borders' and 'drops. ' The wings are set ptecei thrown out from the sides .of the stage , such as forests , parts of corridors , or otnsr settings requiring that considerable space be left on the stage. Tte flats are pictures painted on light framework , which are thrown In the middle , ouUfrom either aide and meet making a complete picture , such as street Bcones used In quick change * , and the rear walls of interior * The borders are the hangIng - Ing pieces let down from the loft and the drops work In the same manner , except that they fall completely to the stage floor. The bordera are usually made to represent foliage or the ceilings of rooms , but the drop has ft sometimes showing a land- much wider wo , i-caps - and again pie supernatural , or gro tesque , as In a spectacular piece. "Forinlrig a composition for a stage salting Is In manyi nses guesswork. The harmon izing of colors Is Intuitive and often an artist Is surprlted or dWippolnted at the result of nU own handlworknlhlng : ! In scene panting that radically dlTLefifrom portrait or picture painting and iogoiSjpK Is the perspective. In a stage settlneotV perspective must appear - pear from all n-irts of the houoa the same , ' while In an ordliwy-oll painting there U but one line of pentftttlve. In Bcenery thin re sult lo accompllpSwf.'by a multitude of tricks ; sometimes the lB | nvhlch the eye habitually follows are run Uifiois floor and again they are lost In shadows alnsteid of being left to outrage all theshMMOf ort. In painting a drop which Is Inrt Ja complete picture , the workman begins with the sky and works for ward , gradually 'losing the Intense blue of the horizon In "the" " ehadows of the objects placed In the fHfefrpund. One thing peculiar - liar about the wwlr'hi that the far and near effects of tli1 cowaa'aro entirely dissimilar and a painter nllisr conduct himself accord ingly. A canva.5. JUfti appears a mere mai ot daubs at close pspectlon stands out iu bold relief at a distance. "A hazy or Indistinct landscape Is made by us'ng several foldal'of ' netting In front of the oid'.nary drop picture , and the effect In many cases Is very beautiful. Fine meshed netting U used for a variety of purposes , as In forests , decorating the Interiors of pal- acea. In forming the framework for orna- menti1 , and In windows where aq effect of fclUge Is deslrnd. "Every metropolitan thoMer has at least a dozen complete sets of scenery , which may Include a great number of * 'do ' and end wings. Among them are the 'light fancy * or French drawing room scene , the 'antique' or old-fashioned oak room , the 'Qpthlc * or cathedral drawing room , used frequently ax a parsonage or chapel , the 'plain,1 represent ing an ordinary room or olllce and some- t'mes > a kitchen , the 'old English' or baronial chamber with armorial hangings and nail 'ccoratlona , used In court scenes , the 'prison , ' the 'palace' and the 'conservatory. ' Among the exteriors are ( ho 'light landscape , ' rep- rerentlns pastoral scenes , the 'dark wood , ' where the villain lurks and lies In wait tor the lioro no , the 'horizon , ' Indicating cither eky or water , and the 'rocky pass , " showing a mountain scene. To these may be added n multitude ot smaller piece * , such as statu ary , gardens , railings and 'leg drops' which are usually semi-circular In form and aroused used In piecing out a sotting. "Tho fine- art cf scene filming finds Its highest development In the decoration of the proscenium curtain or front drop. This task calls forth the best efforts ot the artist and upon the result depends the pra'lsq or blame of nn audience. Many drop curtains , especially those In the nrcit cities of th's country and Europe , are works of the highest art and are the achievements of men who have gained world wide fame through the blending ot colors and execution of original and beautiful designs. " Trinity Church Tliontrlcitlft. Three or four years ago the young people of Unity church , with the assistance ot cer tain ot the older ones , who had been young , gained considerable celebrity by the really admirable way In which they presented the Howells farces , which were Just then com ing out In Harper's Monthly. After that , from various causes , the cast of characters , which , It will bo remembered , remained pretty constant throughout the season , -was seriously Impaired , and In splto ot efforts for reorganization , the- Unity club has not up to this time been a conspicuous figure jn the local theatrical field. Last night , however , a new company , In which the face of Mr. II. S. Mann was the only ono familiar to those who saw the Uowellsi series , presented John Kcndrlck Hangs' screaming farce , "The- Bicyclers , " In a manner which showed that dramatic ex cellence with this society Is a constant quan tity , and Is not seriously affected by death , removals , or the -lapse of time. There have been professional performances not a few In Omaha , as the writer can testify from bitter personal experience , , which in point of art istic completeness did not come within speaking distance of this entertainment. It la tru6 that no professionals'have yet shown us how "The Bicyclers" should bo done , but the Hollands OQO playing It as a curtain raiser , and an opportunity for comparisons may bo given later In the season. The Unity people , however , need have no fear that their offering will bo put to shame , even In such august company. Mrs. Matheson , who Is deservedly a favor ite In lines of work to which , In view of her flno abilities , ono hopes she will not confine herself too long , had In "The Bi cyclers" a part differing In most respect * from others In which she has been seen. Her success In It would seem to Indicate pos sibilities , which her admirers have long sus pected , In the direction ot good results to be obtained from a departure from that class of eccentric character business with which she has heretofore been chiefly Identified. Her performance In this role was distinctly an advance , artistically , upon her work as the vinegary spinster In the sketch which followed , even as that showed vastly more smoothness and mastery of detail than she had attained on the occasion ot Its first pres entation. From ono end of the cast to the. other , all did well , and quite deserved the enthusiastic recall they received. Mr. Herring and Judge Shields , as the two bicycle 11 on Us , were BO good that they need be no better , the latter showing a grasp ot the monocle and a fluency In English dialect which surprised his friends. Mr. Short was nn acceptable Thad- dcus , Mrs. Montgomery and Miss Nelson pleased In very small parts , and Mr. Mann , who has the making In him of a first rate legitimate comedian , contributed what was In some respects the most finished performance of the evening. During the intermission Miss Darlene Coe played two violin solos Svendsen's "Ilo- manza" and Mendelssohn's "On the Wings of Song" very well Indeed , the organ ac companiment . being by Miss Josephine Thatcher ; and the entertainment closed with the bright llttlo sketch , "Itosberry Shrub Sec. , " which was repeated with the same cast provided for Its first performance last month , and In which Mrs. Wheeler , although she suffered from a severe cold , repeated the suc cess which she achieved on the former oc casion. Coinlnir Event * . Jolly May Irwln , the most popular come dienne In her line on the American stage and whom every lover of fun waits for In an ticipation of an evening's rollicking fun , comes to the Crelghton for , four nights , com mencing with a matinee today. She will be seen In her new farce comedy , "The Widow Jones , " and there will be ono of the largest audiences of the season to welcome her , If the large advance sale may be taken as an Indication. MUs Irwln In her first season as a star has met with a success as remarkable as It Is un doubted. Her tour has been confined mainly to long engagements In a few of the larger cities. Including a run ot seventy-five con secutive performances at the Bijou theater. Now York. She Is now on her way eaut from a triumphal tour ot California , and It Is safe to predict that she will duplicate In this city the success which has greeted her elsewhere , for the reason that aho Is very popular with local theater goera. Her bril liant comedy talent , her rare , delightful humor and her magnetic personal charm arc well known everywhere , as Is also her fac ulty for extracting plenty of clean and wholesome fun from any role she may under take. Her methods are her own and her In imitable and potent Individuality makes Itself felt In all her stage work. Clever and mirth provpklng as she has always been , she will show to even better advantage In "Tho Widow Jones , " Inasmuch o"s Its author has evolved a character closely fitted to Miss Irwln's methods and personality. She Is said never to have appeared to greater ad vantage than In the role of the up-to-date widow , whose wrenity 'Is continually dis turbed by the protestations of lovers , new and old , and whoso pungent speeches , verbal quirks and witty sallies are guaranteed to keep her auditors constantly between emlles and laughter. The > story of McNally's latest effort Is based on the experience of a wealthy heiress , whoso life Is made miserable by a couple of , presumably , fortune-hunting suitors. To rid herself ot their attentions she takes refuge In a small village In Maine and conceives the Idea , of passing herself off as the widow of one Jones , who Is supposed to have been drowned In the immediate neighborhood a year before , and as a result of this deception she la flooded with unpaid bills of every description which ho left be hind , and a 17-year-old daughter to also saddled upon her. Having pa'd the bills , anj accepted the daughter a * her child the sup posed dead man suddenly appears and dis plays a tendency to make things lively for his so-called widow. Interspersed through the comedy arc * , of course , the usual song ? , dances and specialties. MUs Irwln. In par ticular , has two fresh negro melodies , "The New Bully" and "I Want Yer Ma , Honey , " which have already outdistanced "Mamie , Ccmo Kiss Your Honey Boy , " made popular by her last season. In the cait are John C. Rico , Jacques Kruger , Joseph M. Sparks. George W. Uarnum , Ivan Gamble , Uoland Carter , Ada Lewis , Ar.ne Sutherland. Sally Cohen , Kathleen Warren , Lillian Heckler , Agnes Milton , Mabel Power and Margery Teal. Henry E.

He Is the mine magnetic Dlxey , but tlio amusement Iqvlng public will now have an opportunity to Judge of his acting In a line of comedy work somewhat d'ffercnt from anything In which ho has been se-en here In the past. During his abirenco of several years from this city be has aimed to become a star In the "straight" or legitimate school of comedy , and how well he has succeeded may be gleaned from the fact that h bis been mcst fivcrably compared with Coquelln , the fa mous French comedian , who created the leading male role In "The Lsttery of Love , " the amusing comedy In which Dlxey v.111 appear In this city on Monday.

The various characters of the seven ages , from the mewling and pukln.g babs down to old ago , "the lean and slippered pantaloon , " will bo "mado up" by Dlxey on the stage In full view of his audience. Daniel Sully , supported by Dan Mason , the well known German comedian , and the panic competent company which appeared here a few weeks since , will play a return engage ment of three night at the Crelghton , com mencing Thursday , February 6. Mr. Sully will present his play , "Daddy Nolan , " In the title role of which ho has achieved one of the most subrtantlal successes of his long stage career , the play depleting a pretty story of home life told In a charming manner. From the romantic to the tragic drama IP A Jump that few actors make ruccessfully. The qualities requisite to play romantic parts are seldom found alongside the char acteristics of the heavy tragedian. An actor , therefore , who possesses both Is a rara avis , who certainly does not flock with the common herd. It Is not enough that nn actor Is capable and talented , nnd blessed by nature with possession of the divine spark ; ho must also have served Ions and honorably In the hard school of dramatic training. At the present time thcro are few actors left on the American , stage that belong to the class that was tutored by such men is Edwin For rest and Edwin Booth , and enjoyed the honor ot playing opposite to Charlotte Cushman and Adelaide Nellson. Prominent among thesa stands James O'Neill. This actor's rec. ord on the American stage his b6an one chain of artistic triumph , gained ns well In the romantic as In the classical drama. Very little not already known can bo said of O'Neill In "Monte Crlsto. " The stirring romance contains In Itself the best elements of dramatic succcsa. From the moment that the dishing sailor boy , Edmund Dantcs , jumps oft tt'e ship "Pharaoh , " In the first act , until the curtain falls In the duel scene between Danglara and the Count of Monte Crlsto In the last , the play Is ono series of Incidents , effective climaxes and charming pictures. Mr. O'Neill has staged It In his usual extravagant manner , a carload of scenery being carried for the two" productions of "Monte Crlsto" and "Vlrglnlus. " Much has been said In prals ? of O'Nolll's Vlrglnlus. O'Neill has not been unjustly called the silver-tongued actor , his voice being as fresh as ever and as clear as a bell. Ho 1ms the build of a tragedian , bMng powerful and graceful , and at the same time dignified In bearing. Mr , O'Neill's company Is composed of artists , who wore selected PO that their abilities should enable them to do e-quil Jus tice both to "Vlrglnlus" and "Monto Crlsto. " For his engagement nt Doyd's thoiter , which U for Thursday and Friday nights of this week only , Mr. O'Neill will present "Vlr- gtnlus" on Thursday nights and "Monto Crlsto" ou Friday night. Theater-goers have for the past two or thrpe seasons complained that the theater offered nothing now. The demand for novel ties has never been to great as now. People who generally patronize the pUyhouso stated openly last season that the reason they did net go to the theater was because there was nothing new offered upon the boards. The same otars and plays came around year after year , and the public , demanding something now , got tlrod of all the old chestnut ? . Tlio advent of the popular young German dialect comedian , Joe Cawthorn , In his now comedy , "A Fool for Luck , " nt Uoyfl's theater for four nights , commencing Sundiy evening , February 9 , Is therefore a welcome one. Ho Is fresh from hl recent Now York successor and lie lo preceded by the pleasant announce ment that he comes to us with everything now new comedy , a new comedienne , Mies Annie Uuckloy , now wongs nnd specialties throughout. In the supporting company are John 13. McWade , the famous baritone fllnger ; Tom Pcasjly , Herbert Kcrr , George T. Welsh , Collln Varrey , Tom Ilortgunian , D. M. Gregory , the Mtsres Carrie Francis , Annie Woods , Agnes Ardeck , Elslo Clayton , Marie and Josephine Clayton. The so-called "tank drama" - was once an object of rldlculo , but It becomes somewhat dignified when a professional hlgh-dlvor like Kearny P. Speedy , In the guise of a hero plunging to thu rescue of a heroine , pre cipitates himself from a height of fifty feet Into a tank of water but three feet deep. This Is but ono of the many Htrong feature * of "The Sidewalks of Now York , " which will hold the boards at the Crolghton for the four nights , commencing Sunday matinee , Febru ary 9 , It la a comely-drama bordering upon the melodramatic , and the action binges upon the fortunes and misfortunes of a lover falsely charged with defalcation and sus pected of robbery , and a sweetheart who gees through flro and water In her constancy. There are wine wonderful complication ! ! In the nrst act , which are finally worked out satisfactorily In the death of the villain by hln own hand and the happiness of everybody who deserves liapplnerii.
