... . The new opera at the Savoy is one of the most charming entertain ments given in recent years at the famous house of light music. A pathetic interest attaches to it from the fact that Sir Arthur Sullivan (1842- 1900) died before it was finished, so that the score had to be completed by Mr. Edward German (born at Whitchurch in Shropshire, 1862), who has hitherto been best known as the composer ...

... . Among the older generation of cricketers the performances of E. M. Dowson and H. K. Longman will probably be watched with the most interest. There will be many old players in the pavilion on Thursday who can remember how Mr. G. H. Longman, father of H. K. Longman, distinguished himself in the same match just twenty-six years ago, while E. M. Dowson is, of course, the son of Mr. E. Dowson who ...

... The Houses of IRVING AND TERRY. THE PLAYERS' PEERAGE. It is rather an extraordinary thing that at a time when so much is written about the stage nobody has made a sys tematic attempt to trace the families of players who have displayed inherited tendencies for acting running through several generations. Few instincts, indeed, are so infectious as the impulse towards stage-acting. Nearly every ...

C. H. Palairet, or F. S. ...

I watched it from the corner of Chancery Lane, where Mr. Scott-Gatty read the King's mes sage aloud in a stentorian voice which carried to the utmost length of the crowd. The Lord Mayor awaiting the arrival of the heralds made a dignified picture, as did the general ...
