AMUSEMENTS.

•V&i rTHE QDXIIf OF OOXIC OPKRA, CAMlt.t.K D'akville. ll "Madeline or the Maglo Kiss," Julian Edwards and Stanislaus 8trange's great oomio opera sucoess which 00 tries here for the first time at the Opera House,

Monday night direct from its remark «ble run of 20 weeks in New York and ita fourth visit to Philadelphia 'will doubtless, prove a revelation to theatergoers, for it is seldom that anew opera of such great success comes to this part -of the country in its second season, es peclally with thesame magnificent company, scenery and all other appurten*noes that figure in its metropolitan pro•ductlon." The company in this case will

be headed by a lady who is, beyoDd any -question, the greatest comic opera singer the American stage has ever known Miss Camille D'Arville known as the queen of comlo opera, a title that none dispute. Her voice is remarkable and the faot that she cakes and sustains a high E. is proof of her marvelous ability. She is a beautiful woman, and great actress as well, and as the maiden whose magic kiss brings an old man of one hundred back to his youth, she has even a greater part than she had as .prima donna of the Bostonlans as Maid Marlon in Robin Hood. Madeline's success is proved by the faot that Julian Edwards, the composer, has already received over $8,000 from the sale of two songs in the score alone, the "Said Mary to her Lamb," a topical ditty that always gets from ten to a dozen encores and "All Alone, Foolish Heart," Miss D'Arville's great solo. His income this year will be not far from 120,000 from his songs alone. Miss D'Arville's company is doubtless the best ever organized as It includes George C. Boniface, Jr., Rose Leighton, W. H. Ravenscroft, W. G. Stewart, Maud and Hilda Hollins and many others with a chorus of fifty. The scenery and oostumes are beautiful and the opera's success here seems assured. Secure seats in advance at Buntln's. Over one hundred seats were sold for the Monday night performance one hour after the sale was opened at Buntln's Thurday morning.

THB COUNTRY CIRCUS.

A most interesting theatrical entertainment will be the "Country Circus," which will be the attraction at the opera house next Friday night, December 20th. In addition to being a splendid comedy production the play is certainly a great novelty, and supplies to young and old one of the most enjoyable entertainments imaginable. It seems to have about it the very breeslness of the white tents. The play which leads up to the olrcus is presented by a capable company. In the olrcus are some twenty performers, among them the three La* moots, acrobats La Belle Tina, nerial sprite the Gregory Brothers, horizontal bar experts Bertina, the "Flexible Venus''} Prof. Harry Howard and bis trick ponies Walton A Parks, on the balancing perch Fred Lamont in his alaok wire absurdities, Flora Don and her school of Shetland ponies the four Del Veeohious, sensational leapera, and "Muldoon," the wrestling pony. A first-class band and orchestra, under the leadership of Prof. Butters, is also a feature. JOSEPH JRFPBR8OR, AS "MP VAN WWKUl"

NKXT SATURDAY WIGHT.

A ourlous incident onoe ooourred to Jefferson connected with his play Rip Van Winkle. There is in the village of Catsklll a Rip Van Winkle Club. "The soolety dtd me the honor to invite me to act the character in their town," said Mr. Jefferson, "I acoepted and when I arrived was met by the president and

1WJ"l,4#I'VJJ WL WLIIJ^UUI

other members of the elub, among whom was young Niobolas Vedder who claimed to be a lineal desoendent of the original Old Nick, I waa taking oup of tea at the table in the hotel," continued Mr. Jefferson, "whenI was attracted to the colored waiter who was giving a graphic and detailed account of this legend of tbe CatakiU mountains to vk* ft* the boarders who sat nearly dp poatfo use. 'Yea sah,* said the waiter, 'Rip went up into de mountains, slep for twenty years, and when he came back hyer in dis berry town his own folks didn't know him.* 'Why,' said bis listener,'you don't believe the story's trueT' 'True? Ob course it is why,' pointing at Mr. Jefferson 'dat'a de man.' When I got to the theater," aaid Mr. Jefferaon, resuming the story, "I could scarcely get in, the crowd was so great about the door. During the soene in the last act when Rip Inquires of the inn-keeper Ms this the village of Falling Water?' altered the text and aubsti tuted the oorrect name, 'la this the village of Oatakili?' The crowded house almost seemed to hold ita brqath. The name of the village seemed to bring tbe scene home to every man, woman and child that was looking at it. From that time on the interest was at it's full tension. Sorely I had never seen an audience so struck with the play before There was a reception held at the club after the play and the president was so nervous that he introduced Mr. Jefferson as Washington Irving.

MOTBS.

There are one hundred people with Tompkins' "Black Crook," whioh plays an engagement at Naylor's Opera House shortly.

Alice Atherton, whqm we have not quite forgotten, contemplates playing May Irwin's role in a London use of "The Widow Jones" adapted.

Charles E. Evans and W. D. Mann have formed a partnership to produce tbe future oomic operas of De Koven and Smith, who will have a new one ready for next season,

Tbe.names James O'Neill and Monte Cristo are and ever will be as closely connected as are those of Booth and Hamlet, Jefferson and Rip Van Winkle. Monte Cristo will "live as long as Mr. O'Neill continues to play it.

Minna Gale Hayues, the fondly re membered actress of the Booth-Barrett company, will return to tbe stage in New York next Saturday night, to play in "Pygmalion and Galatea" with an amateur company, for the Mothers and Babies' Hospital.

Rev. J. Vila Blake, of the Second Unl tarian cburch of Chicago, spoke of the beauties of "Shore Acres" from his pulpit on Sunday of last week, and urged bis congregation to see the play, which he commended for its h)gh moral value. It is said that Dr. Lyman Abbott also recommended Mr. Heme's comedydrama during its recent engagement in Brooklyn.

The famous French aptress and sooiety favorite, Rhea, will be seen at the opera bouse Christmas matinee and night, also Tuesday night, as Nell Gwynne. Her name in itself is sufficient to guarantee a good entertainment, but this season tbe costumes and scenio effects are said to be exceptionally fine,and as they represent the" exact time of the story they will be very interesting. The engagement will be the fashionable event of tbe season.

There is an irruption of nightgowns on the stage this winter. Four or tbem are in "The Gay Parisians," and twice that many in "The Strange Adventures of Miss Brown" at the Standard. They look humpy and bulgy, and they float around with a voluminous helplessness. No woman in such a rig could make an appeal to an audience's sentiment, though, even if it did feel sorry for her in a way. If Camille had been dying all these years in an ordinary white tight-at-the neck-and-then-hang-any-way sort of night dress, the public impression of that scene might have been very differ ent from what it la.

Anew play that has just made a great hit In Paris has all tbe attractions to commend it to American audiences, before which it will no doubt be seen soon. It is a very disagreeable play, depleting pretty grossly the vices of an unpleasant portion of modern rioh middle olass society. In the first act the stage represents the fitting room of a fashionable dressmaker, where the actresses undress before the audience, one of them as far as her combination garment. In another act a realistic view of the Cafe Durand, once the headquarters of the B' ulangists, is giveu, where an actress gathers up her skirts and leaps over a table to join her lover In another part of the room. Plain words and gestures are employed and forms of vice exhibited that have hitherto been kept off the stage of even tbe lower theaters, while many incidents are repetitions of real events of recent occurrence in Paris, and some of the characters are hardly disguised presentations of real persons.
