I suppose it rarely happens that the devino Sara makes an enthusiastic spec-tator pass from a fevolish sCum of ex-ultation over her tragic force to a side-splitting, boistrous mirth, the (ileaner of the New York Evening World. She did that with me. however, at the Garden theater in "La Tosca." I could do nothing better in tho matter of seats than to got one on the ri;ht hand side of the family circle. This lofty "coign of vantage" afforded a cheerful view of tho rear of the wall. Tho vellow Tiber is supposed to swirl along in sullen dignity below this wall. My seit commanded a good vic.v cf two very comfortable mattresses close to the' wall, instead of this watery current.

In this case it was lit-erally one step from tho subline to tho ridiculous. Uaialp or the Stage. Arthur K. Moulton, the Hilly Giltedgo of Frank Daniel's Little Tuck, will be with another company next season. "Robin Hood" will be given at Wed-nesday matinee, "Suctte" Wednesday evening, and "Fatiuit.a" Thursday. Marie Wainright intends to give a superb production of "Amy Robsart" next,season. ltarton Hill will be the Varney, and it is stateil that she is an-xious to securo the services of Henry Miller to play the Larl of Leicester. The Salvation army band is undoubt-edly, as far as the audience are con-cerned, the principal feature in "A Rarrel of Money," and Grade F.mnictt, ns Captain Nell, is a clover imitation of what is seen daily on the public thor-oughfares. Hoyt's successes in the mure of plavs like "A Midnight Hell" and "A Texas Steer" has not weaned him from musical comedy. "A Trip to Chinatown," his latest, being of that nature, although it shows a greater reliance upon bright dialogue and quiet effects than some of his earlier works. There is some sort of a denial of the report that Henry C DeMille and Dav-id Belasco have dissolved partnership, but the chances are that the report is true. DeMille is under contract to adapt and reconstruct the (ierman play. The Lost Paradise, for Charles Fro'hman's stock company. Belasco is said to have lost a lot of money backing Mrs. Leslie Carter's starring venture, which has been an astistic, but not a financial success. Mario Wainright, who is the daugh-ter of a Bishop, naturally has conscien-tious scruples against Sunday-nigh- t per-formances. Although she has hitherto played several engagements in San Francisco she was initiated into her first Sunday performance at the California Theatre last Sunday night, and, what is also remarkable, the receipts were the largest she ever played to. In' fact, it was the largest audience the California ever played to at the prices. As Bossy, in Hoyt's" A Texas Steer," Flora Walsh is seen in role very differ-ent from those she has been (illing in farce comedics;but the neatness and re-finement that has always characterised her work shines forth more strongly than ever. In a part full of temptation to overdo espociallv in the earlier acts as agreen Texas girl sho never over-steps the bounds of legitimate comedy, speak to him because I knew he would ask me what 1 had boen doing since 1 had been transplanted from his nuirsey, and whether I had blossomed and borne fruit, and w han the increase wast And alas, I had nothing to show but withered leaves! He had b"en very kind to me in tho old college days, that sad aud silent scholar! 1 wouder if he has ever thought of me in the myriads of years that have past since then? That great vulgar Mower show ceased to bloom for me, and I turned sadly away and left tho place. As I did so l came across a very common specimen of the pitcher plant of the "growler" variety. It had a scarlet piston, and its petals were pale and soiled. And this is what I saw at the flower show! Rattle. POfTJL VRITY Of WO.VDKRI.AND. Mr. Sackett Wall llal With tha Theater Oolng Salt Lake 1'ubllc. Mr Sacked, the nunaper of Won-derland, left tor the home cilice of the circuit of Wonderland at Denver, ac-companied by his wife, last evening. Before leaving he was seen by a Timks reporter, who inquired how tho public had treated the new venture in Salt Lake, and his answer had be..t be de-tailed In his own words. Said hn: Never in the history of our openings have we met with so thorough an en-dorsement of our venture from the public as we have in Salt Lake. The figures of the opening week excel any comparative week in the history of all our six bouses. Denver ranks next. When you take into consideration the weather aud tho natural prejudices that a number of natives who had never seen one of our bouses and the unfinished condition of our bill of at-tractions and other extenuating circum-stances, I am sure you will agree with me that our business and the general result has been an unquali-fied success. Despite tho contending circumstances, however, we hope to continue so, for as a studied and care-ful result cau only be attained by rigid practice of rule, wo of course always make the following of our rules a ne-cessity. Wo have come into favor with the respectable element and they are of course what we cater to. As long as we do that we shall retain their patron-age, providing, of course, that we give them sufficient entertainment. I shall return to Salt Lake in a week or so with a very valuable attraction, Klla F.wing, Missouri's tall girl. Mr. Cooper is our resident manager here and will look as carefully after the public's welfaro as myself. I shall en-deavor to always give the best of at-tentions to the Salt Lake public, and have succeeded pretty well so far; for instance, during the coming week we have tho living half-lady- , and a new performance by the marion-ettes, besides tho musical comedy and new cusmoramas. And in con-clusion I will say that I am not only gratified at the immense return on our investment here but more than that for the way the part of the public we cater for here take to us and our enter-tainments. Tba Bnatonlanf. The famous Bostonians will occupy tho Salt Lake theator the first four nights of next week, opening on Mon-day evening in "Carmen." Tuesday "Robin Hood" will be given. "Robin Hood'Ms a good, wholesome, homemade argument wherewith to meet and convincingly cudgel that class who demand a foreign trademark on all forms of art before it can either win their credit or coinmondation. The opera is a work in a higher field of ro-mance, following tho truer tread of comic opera in its endeavor to escape the limitation that lies dangerously near the domain of burlesque. Several hear-ings of "Robin Hood" have served to demonstrate its superiority over the witli the lijjht biiiI life of love. Her eagerness, her rapture were more piti-ful than sii?hs or tears, for death stood by to pluck the llower while it bioomed. Her death scene was simple vet won-derful. She rises, comes down the stage alone, with her eyes set and with these words, spoken as if out of the far off mysteries of a vision: "I do not sulfur now. One would say that life was restored to mo. I experience a relief I never felt. I shall live." Her lover comes pently to her.she turns aud folds her arms about his neck and says: "Ah, how well I feel!" when her head drops on his bosom as though it nestled there for peace, lie puts his hand upon her head and softly murmurs her name. There is no reply. Again he speaks her name with gentlo insist-ence. No answer! He lifts her head in both his hands and looks irto her eyes. Ho utters a cry of horror as the body slowly begins to fall away from him. He siezea her by the right wrist aud she lianas for a moment suspended thus in the air lika a lovely lily droop-ing from its stem and then she swings geatiy to the ground. It is natural, beautiful, indescribably pathetic. This art is a spell! It holds one breathless in the shadows of mortality; it seems to wrap one round ami round with weeping wraiths of midnight mist that never touch, yet hold one helpless in their chill embrace, while the illimitable air seems vocal with sobs and sighs and falling tears, tho symphony of human destiny! Moiis. Fleurv's Armand was not a satisfactory performance. He is minc-ing and manuerish from his waist down. He does not own his legs in fee simple, lie has only borrowed them for the night. The east was quite without dis-tinction. With the exception of Sarah they cannot teach us auytbing about the acting of Camille. Of tha families I have scon I remem-ber with distinctive pleasure Modjeska in the first act. Mrs. Potter in the third, and the divine Sarah in the last. The Flower Show. For once tho buildiug known as tho Madison Square garden justifies its name. It has been turned into a ver-itable garden and made to bloom from eud to end with the rarest and most beautiful plants. The orchid exhibi-tion in particular has been a great at-traction, and has drvwn crowds of old ladies, ministers, society swells, fadists, llower sharps, idlers and pleasure seekers. I bought a catalogue, and if anyone wants to know any-thing "about the flowers and plants I'll mail it to them. I only claim to be able to recognize the difference between a sunflower and a lilly. 1'eoplo go to such places for various reasons. I went to study tho genius Pulehra Puella Americana, which is found in large varieties at these shows. lirst, thore was the uight blooming serious a pale youug widow just open-ing ber beautiful golden corolla to the sun after the refreshing showers of mor-tuary grief. It was evident that her principal occupation was husbandry! There has been nothing of note in the thealrical line this week unless the Stanley lecture on Monday evening may be classed with events of that kind. "A Barrel of Money" which be-gan a two night's engagement last night is a very ordinary comedy. It has ome bright points, but they are almost lost sight of in the dreary waste of (iracie Kmmott makes a pleasing Hoxy but lacks the vivacity to Diake the part what it might be. Titers seems also to cling about hcr a sort of reminiscenco of the varieto stage that could be dispensed with. Will Kohnlo as Hy Hazlett was good, and Al Bai-ley's Amos Garrison, in the latter part ol the play was above tho average. Lloyd Neal as Jim Rich introduced some now things, but it must be ac-knowledged that many o. his jokes were old. Several of tho songs were bright and new. Next week opera and comedy will hold the boards.. On Monday night the Bostonians begin their engaeemsnt and they will be followed on Friday and Saturday by Hoyt's "Texas Steer." KEKMIAKOT'N CAM II. I.E. A ft view or the Thp.trlcal Events of the Work t Niw York City. With the production of "Camille," Mile. Bernhardt' season comes to a brilliant close. It is a quest:ou which has been higher Mile. l?ernhardt'srt or the prices of the seats. Seats that were advertised for 3 cost $11, and the best seats even in the top gallery could not be had for less than ti.'il) apiece, though they were adver-tised for 9l.no. It is not creditable to Mr. Abbey's management. The box ollico was in collusion with the specta-tors and played into their greedy hands. Mr. Abbey's atteution was called to this legalized system of plunder, but he made no etl'ort to correct it. A mau doesn't object to being robbed in a quiet, respectable sort of s way, when tho fact that he is being robbed is not obtruded on his attention, "He that is robbed, not wanting what is stolen, let him not kuow it, and he's not robbed at all." The relined spoliation at a chr.reh fair or a horse race does not throw vitriol on your finer feelings. But when a speculator holds you up ou the sidewalk at the end of a gun or a bunch of the only good seats in the homo of the primary in-stinct is one of resistance, and though discretion may get the hotter part of valor, valor goes around for weeks nfter with a dark brown taste in its mouth. Bernhardt is 'going west. I wou'.du't advise any young man with nn income less than $1000 a minute to invite his best girl to go and se her until he has secured tho tickets and knows whether he is a ruined man or only financially embarrassed. She nor resorts to toughness ami gymnastics and extravagant dialect to convey tho idea that she is from the West. Al. Hay man is estimated to be one o the richest and must reliable theatrica managers in the United States. His enterprises are greater and his pros-pects more brilliant than any of the leading New York managers. His re-cent ventures iij conjunction with companies have realized an im-mense sum. His profit on "Shenan-doah" amounts to $12,000. "All the Comforts of Home" is sure of $1,000 a week, and there is every indication that ere long Mr. Ilayman will inscribe his name ou the role of millionaires. Tim Murphy, the comedian who plays the corigrcsinian from Texas in Hoyt's play, "A Texas Steer." has a fund of anecdotes about our leading legislators. Murphy hails from Washington and spent his boyhood days there and tells this yarn: I once heard Judge Kelly of Pennsylvania make a characteristic reply to a congressman who asked him tho cause of his success in public life, lielly, who had a vocal organ like an auctioneer and an accent like a deni-zo- n of the city of brotherly love, drew himself up and said, "Success, sir? I owe me present lofty position in the eyes of me country to the favor of pro-vidence and me magnificent voice!" The Lady of Challent is the title of the play which the Italian dramatist, (liacosa, has written for Sarah Bern-hardt and which she means to produce duriug ber American tour. This is the story. Bianca di Challaut has a lover, Ardizziao, who insults her. 'J'o revenge this insult she gives herself to Gajazzo on condition that he will kill Ardizzino. But after possesssng her, Gajazzo refus-es to bo hcr avenger, aud insults her in his turn. She then returns to Ardiz-zino, using every art to reduce him to her obedience, in order that he may re-venge her on (iajazo. But a beardless boy Don Pedro di Cnrdona kills out of love for Bianca and Bianca finishes by loving him so passionately that she prefers death with him to life without him. The first act passes at a fair near Favia; the second in Bianea's room; the third, represents a ball in Cri villi's house, and the fourth, a room in Bianea's house in Milan. In the lasl act there is a convent scene and a yard in the justice hall with the executioner. preceding work of its composer and librettist, and emphasize the effect of our original estimate, showing in all its parts unmistakable im-provement and progress. Putting aside the matter of local pride or pre-judice, the present impression of this genuine comio opera is a matter for just pride, m it is of promise for the future of our native workers. Mr. Smith has made his libretto a judicious and condensed modification of the legend relating to bold Hobin Hood, aud how-h- e outwitted the malevolent sheriff of Nottingham, who would have cheated him out of his goodly inherit-ance and his fair bride, Maid Marion. His work has been very cleverly and agreeably done, tho humorous and ro-mantic element being charmingly asso-ciated in a straightforward story well sustained in interest. Mr. DeKoren has been very successful in fashioning the musical fabric for the graceful and stal-wart figures that tripped through the May-pol- e and the Morris dance, or flit-ted through the shadowy depths of Sherwood forest in the good old days when Merrio England sent her knights to titlls and tourneys, when the king warred with tho Saracens in crusades, and bold Robin Hood and his yoemen were the terror of the rich and the idols of the poor. The composer has evi-dently been on rapport with his sub-ject, fairly free from any aliectation for fantastic phraseology, giving sympa-thetic color and truth to the illustration of dramatic situation." Francis Wilson's Keniluttcence of Hading. New York Tribune. Twe theatrical stories were heard at a recent dinner. The first was by Francis Wilson. During the repast he was so modest and unassuming that everyone was surprised at his egotisti-cal manner when he began to relate a story about Jane Hading. Someone asked him if he had ever seen her. "Oh, yes," said Mr. Wilson with a air. "She came to see me when I was playing iu Chicago. I gave her a box. Sno was aosolutoly en-raptured with my playing. She asked the priviledge of coming iu to see me on the stage after the performance. I was delighted to receive her. We ex-changed compliments (Mr. Wilson speaks French with fluency and cor-rectness), and after we bad finished the round of the nmst charming things we could think of about each other I asked her if she would give me some souvenir of her pleasant call. Would she give me a lock of her hair? She replied that such a gift in France would bit a com-promising thing, but in America per-haps it was diflcrent. The next day I received a lock of the great artiBts liair tied with a dainty ribbon aud inclosed in a note that only a Frenchwoman could write." The story thus far was told with such a swaggering, all conquering air that everyone, thought that .Mr. Wilson had unconsciously stepped outside of him-self for a few moments. But bis next words corrected l his impression. Now he was rraLcis Wilson, as he said: "A lews weeks afterward I had the pleasure ,of reading in a New York newspaper an interview with Jane Had-ing. She was asked whom she had seen Then there was the night blooming giddyous, in a dark sacquo with fur sleeves, and a hat on whoso aerated plateau roses and feat hers both bloomed in the spring. All nature round about, quite incapable of such a marvel, turned green with envy. In my inno-cence of all knowledge I did not know, but some one plucked me by the sleeve and said: "Belongs to the family of cauivorous plants." What I did notice was that this beautiful specimen was hand painted and decorated iu the ro-coco style of tho restoration, and that she exhaled an intoxicating and sicken-ing perfume. I noticed some gentlemen turn and examine her furtively. 1 sup-pose they were botanists, lou would not imagine it, but this hot house exotic grows aud nourishes principally from hayseed. As I sat. down to watch the motley throng I saw a lovely clematis in marvelous heliotrope hues, with her arm glued into the space behind the arm of a Dudene jilant, which runs mostly to stalk, her head bent 'distract-ingl- y forward, and her glance turned up to his, her soul melting into his face like sunshine on a sand lot. (lh.it was pitiful, and 1 was alone! As I rose hur-riedly and absent-mindedl- I ran into a sensative plant a dear old lady who was looking for somebody who would have the adjustiblo garden roof moved she felt a draught! tiuite unintentionally I was the wit-ness of a very touching incident. A friend said laughingly to a distin-guished looking man whose hair was tinged with gray, "where is your col-lection!" The gentleman addressed turned and touching his hat to his wife said with the most beautiful gallantry, "here is my collection." I worshiped that man! 1 followed him around to rub up against the hem of his garment. Presently he sent his collection to his conservatory in a cab and came back to the ilowers, and, oh misera cordia! I saw him sidling up to a floral parasite. He was looking around to add to his collection. And there is guile even among the sweet and gentle flowers! In disgust uud dismay 1 turned my eyes for rest to a fine specimen of tho Philadelphia palm (rare) with a broad Quaker Here was honesty if not beauty. Near by this goodly tree rose a japon-ic- a from Murray Hill beautiful, statuesque or marble, and as cold and lifeless, without soul or perfume. Father Pin ignorant or an old fogy, for tho commoner ilowers pleased ine most migonette from the country, and daisies aud violets from the orange mountains. I havo read somewhere of a tree in the island of Maxritias 'which loads tho air for miles about with an exquisite and penetrating per-fume, so that travelers pass-ing through a forest where it grows will carry in their clothes for days thereafter a lingering sweetness. Your life and mine ought to bo like that! Alas, the collee stones ami pave-ments of a great city do not furnish a congenial soil! As my mind lingered upon this thrught I almost ran into an old professor of mine. He had his classic face buried in tho foliage of a plant. I couldn't help wondering if he were still hunting for Greek rivots? He was a famous baud at that! He did not recognize me. I suppose he had cut aud pruned so many slips and twigs since my day! And I did not might want to ride in the street car or get a glass of soda water, and things might be awkward. It can't be said of Mr. Abbey, "Thou hast no speculation in those eyes which thou dost glare with." I'm inclined to believe Salt Lake will be treated to the speculative glare of those managerial eyes, unless public sentiment is dangerously aroused. Sometimes this avaricious double dealing over reaches itself. The public sometimes stays away. Bernhardt's "Camille" is a Mosaic of the most delicate and beautiful work-manship, made up of a bewildering number of delicate bits of detail. There are probably actresses who play por-tions of "Camille" better than Bern-hardt does, but taken all in all, La Dame Aux Camelias has in Sara her completest emhodyiuents. I first saw "Camille" played by Modjeska, and it is one of that superior actress' best impersonations. I then saw tho part in tho hands of Mrs. James Brown Potter. It is the fashion to sneer at Mrs. Potter, and there is not a critical scribbler but has flung ink at her. Kaeh one has tried to outdo the other in the abuse that has masquer-aded under the name of criticism. I'm no apologist for Mrs. Potter. I have even suffered some at her hands, but nothing I trust would blind me to merit even where least expected. I try never to forget the saying of Vanreu-argues- , "It is easy to criticise, but dif-ficult to estimate." When Mrs. Potter first appeared in "Camilla" in New York, I've no doubt she gave a wretch-ed performance. Neither she nor Mr. Bellow knew one half their lines, but I taw her afterwards, when she had be-gun to feel her way into the part, and I am free to say that her performance, in the third act in the great scene with Air. Duval was more moving than Sarah's, though 'tis heresy to say so. Bernhardt's as an ac-tress rests upon her power of intensity, concentration and the absolute sin-cerely of her emotions; but in tho scene alluded to she did not work her-self into the spirit of the sceno until she began to writo the final letter of adieu to Armand. Then the tones of her voice carried conviction, she touched tho note of nature, and art-for-was suffused in the glow of as she threw down her pen, buried her face in her hands and burst into a passionate storm of tears. But the third act was a disap-pointment, partly owing, no doubt, to tho lath and plasfer character of Mons. Piron's Duval. Duquesne, a most ad-mirable actor, should have played the purt. Where Mile. Bernhardt is undenia-bly, indescribably great is in the last act. Words are powerless to describe the beauty ami pathos of poor Marguo-ri'e'- s death. There is no etl'ort at y or pathological illustration. Bernhardt might be advertised as the only living Camille without a cough. Sho doesn't need that trick. The very air of her bed chamber is heavy with the forebodings of sombre fate. You see her pitiful weakness i.i every line of her face, every movement of her body in the language of her eye. you hear the knell of approaching dissolution in her voice. Her reception of Armand was thrilliug. After having rushed to the window for air she returns to her couch and is clinging weakly to ouo of i! gUmtcmcntg. ft"?fc"- - - gUmtacwetttg ..... n. j and BIJOU THEATOR 1UM. L.

This firm deserves much credit for tho gradual manner in which it mis pushed itself into prominence, and it is now considered one of the foremost concerns in the city. This new store is a large, handsome, well lighted and elegantly furnished place, heavily stocked with fine society stationery and papers, university school and text books, and in fact everything usually found within the walls of a tirst-cfas- s stationery store. Mr. Mar-gelt- s remarked that they were receiv iug goods daily and that iheir stock was about the largest and best selected of anv of its kind in the territory. No pains or expense have been spnred in making tho new store neat and at-tractive, which fact will be readily ob-served upon entering the new book palace. YOU KISSED ME. This poem was written in 18fi7 by Miss Celia Gardener, a lady under 20 years of age. James Rodpath, the his-torian, thought so much of the pnera that he had an edition printed on white satin. John G. Whittier wrote of it and its young author that she bad truly mastered the secret of Kuglish.J You kissed nu ! My hea 1 Dropped low on your breast With a leelln of shelter And in Unite rest. While the holy emotions M y tongue dared not spesk Flashed up iu a flame From my heart to my cheek. Your arms held me fast; Oh : your arms were si bold, Hoart beat against heart in their passionate fold, Your glances seemed drawing My soul through my eyes As the sun draws the mist From the sea to the Pities. Your l.ps clunvr to mine T.l! 1 prayed In my lii:ss They might never un laip From the rapturous kiss. Yon kissed me! My heart. And my breath, and my will. In delirious joy Fur a moment stood still. Life had for me then No temptations, no charms-- No visions of happiness Outside of your nrms. And wtru 1 this instant An ant;el, posses ed Of the peace and the Joy That are given the blost. r would fling my whits robes Unreplninv'ly down, I would tear from my forehead Its beautiful crown To nestle once more In that haven of rest Your lips upon'mine. My head on your breast. You kissed me! My soul, In a bliss so divine, Reeled and swooued like a drunken man Foolish with wine. An 1 1 thought 'twere delicious To die there, If death Would but come, while my lips Were yet moist with your breath: If I might grow cold While your arms clasp me round In their passionate fold. And these are the questions I ask day and night: Must lips taste no more Su"h ejiiuisite delight? Would you care If your breast Were my shelter at then. And If you were here Would you kiss me ajjaln?
