Perhaps no comedy has been written which Illustrates home life aa it was In England during King George IHs reign aa Oliver Goldsmith's fanuus comedy, She Stoops to Conquer. The scenes of the play are laid In a country parish a few miles outside of London, and the characters are chosen from real life. The most picturesque scene In the comedy is the one at The Three Pigeons'" inn, where the village There la characters are introduced. Stingo, the tavernkeeper; his type was found in every English town of the eighteenth century. Muggins, the exciseman, and Jack Slang, the horse doctor, are enjoying hit slings. Amn-ada- b, the bear dancer, and Tom Twist, who spins the pewter platter for a living, ait by the fireside and tell their yarns.- The leader of this happy-go-lucbunch is Tony Lumpkin, a young is the reprobate, whose sep-faithvillage squire. They are a Jolly, carefree crowd, who are up In the clouds one day and down in the dumps" the next. Their type was found throughout England in the eighteenth century, and they weren't bad types by any means. A person studying this period In history learns to like them. It is the endeavor of the promoters She of the coming production of Stoops to Conquer" to give the audience a truthful conception of the social condition of old England" during the period In which the Revolutionary wai raged in America. To gain this point, it becomes necessary to go to a great Thf expense for the accessories. "props" used number over Hit). The rostumes are from Tam Of New York city, and there is much new scenery. The people of the Agricultural college of Utah, who present the comedy, are endeavoring to make this play one of literary value, aside from the standpoint of enjoyment. The play will be at the Grand Opera House Thursday night. - ky er Mahara's Minstrels. The famous Mahara operatic minstrels announced for Friday night at What Money Cannot Buy. The following touching incident, a recent occurrence in a western county Jail, as related by the keeper, Is retold with the hope that the good work begun that night may go on; Last evening. Just before the lights went out in all the rooms of the county jail, and while the prisoners of the ground floor were gathered in the cor telfing coach stories, uttering oaths and indulging Jn the low, vulgar conversation so often heard among many who go to make up the crowd in the jail, the attention of the boisterous throng was suddenly arrested by the sound of a strong, sweet baritone voice singing Something Money Cannot Buy, which came from one of the rear cells. In a moment every voice was hushed except the sweet voice of the vocalist singing; 'Gold hath its powers, sages will say; Riches in life hold a wonderful sway. But there's a power that halls from full of rage, n.u music for the time doth change hi nature. Tim man that hath no music in himself. Nor i not moved with concord of sweet sounds. Is tit for treasons, strutegems and spoils; Thi- motion of his spirit are dull as night And hi affections dark as Erebus; I,et no such man be trusted." Now, to quote Lorenxo again, Mark the music." It seems fitting at this time, with the concert to be given In the Salt Lake Tabernacle on the evening of April 4 by the Conreld Metropolitan Opera company only ten days distant, to say something of one of the wonderful works that Is to be sung. First of all, from the standpoint of the music lover and from the standpoint of music that can be enjoyed to the fullest extent by all, Is Rossinis - Stabat Mater." Although the greatest Italian years composers lived for twenty-si- x after he wrote Stabat Mater." It waa the last of his ambitious efforts. He himself liked to call this work his masterpiece; he was willing to rest his fume as a composer upon the one oratorio, Stabat Mater." This from the author of William Tell." Otello," H Tancredl" and Barblere dl Sivlglia," other notable work is an indication of how highly he esteemed "Stabat of Mater. And it was a great height for Rob lnl, blacksmiths apprentice for aa a boy he was apprenticed to a. blacksmith to roach. But Rossini, though of peasant origin, did not tarry long at the forge and the bellows. At thirteen he was playing the horn In the orchestra of a theater at Bologna, and in 1808, at the age of fifteen years, he entered a music class Rossini began composing at sixteen, when his first work, a cantata, was performed in public. Between 1815 and 1838 he wrote nearly twenty operas, and he waa but 81 years of age when he waa'appotnted director of the Thea- ter Itallen in Paris. It was Jn 1821 William Tell waa produced. Stabat Mater came thirteen years later. In 1842, when the composer had reached the ripe fullness of his mar1 velous powers. Rossini died in Paris November 13, 1868. It is interesting to note that he was a ' leap year child, having been born February 29, 1792. "Stabat Mater has been aptly described as an oratorio in which religious words are set to operatic music. The complete oratorio, which is to be given in Salt Lake in its entirety for the first time in the went, contains nine numbers. They are the introduction, Cujua Anlmam," "Qul Est Homo. Eia Mater," "Pro Peccatla," Sancta Mater Istud Agas," Ftac ut Pnrtum, Inllammatus" and "In Sem-pltewhen his Saecula. The principal singers in the Salt Lake production will be Mme. Nordlca, Mme. Homer and Messrs. D.ippel and Journet. In the first part of the program, Stabat Mater constituting the second pnrt, there will he arias by other celebrated artists, including Mme. De March! and Miss Alten, as well as choral and orchestral numbers. It is regarded as moat unfortunate that the Conreld company will be able to give but one concern here. It is impossible to give more, however, as the grand opera season is to open In San Francisco oil Thursday evening, April 6, and the company must leave on its special train about midnight of Tuesday.
