Dr. Richard Strauss has been invited to conduct the perfor mances of “Salome” and the “Symphonia domestica.” Herr v. Schuch will have musical charge of the first per formance of “Elektra,” and will also conduct “Feuersnot.” At this evening’s performance of “Tannhauser,” the title-rdle will be in the hands of Herr v. Bary and Frau Wittich will sing Elisabeth. At the Royal Theatre, Neustadt, “Wallensteins Tod” will be given this evening, beginning at 6 o’clock. The next performance of the Christmas fairy play “Schnee- witchen at this theatre will take place tomorrow after noon. Tickets may be bought in advance today without extra fee; the prices are on a reduced seale. That the English are an unmusical people is continually dwelt on in the press, and this in spite of the fact that there is probably better oratorio singing in England than in any other country in the world. Still, the fact remains that opera is the crown of music, as drama is the crown of poetry, and the absence of any really national opera remains a serious blot on British culture. That the purely English-speaking public are ready to patronise such opera as they can understand was proved by the winter season of Wagner in English which the Covent Garden manage ment undertook last year. It is pleasant to know that, according to a London evening paper, this experiment is to be repeated, and that the direction is again to be in Herr Richter s hands. Last week brought the announce ment of another enterprise, in which the moving spirit is Mr. Charles Manners, whose services to English opera it is impossible to overestimate. Some eighteen months ago Mr. Manners established a National English Opera Union, which he hoped would attain a membership of ten thousand. That figure has not been reached, but the fairly respectable total of three thousand names has been enrolled, and Mr. Manners feels that he is now able to make a further move. He now announces a three weeks season at Drury Lane next May, subject, of course, to sufficient backing from the Union in the matter of sub scriptions for seats. It is Mr. Manners’ intention to pro duce the new operas, all in English, which, as he very justly remarks, are quite certain to obtain production abroad. It is' to be hoped that all lovers of English music will rally to the support of Mr. Manners in his endeavour. ——j—— The international Photographic Exhibition, Dresden 1909. One of the special attractions of this Exhibilion will be a room reserved for photographs taken by Royal and Princely amateurs. King Friedrich August, the patron of the Exhibition, and their Royal Highnesses Prince Johann Georg and Princess Mathiide of Saxony were the first to offer for exhibition photographs taken by themselves. The Queen of Holland, the Crown Prince and Crown Princess of Germany, the Archduchess Maria Josepha, the Duchess Feodora of Schleswig Holstein, Pqnce Wilhelm of Hohenzollern, Prince Carl of Hohenzollern, the Duchess Carl Feodora of Bavaria, Princess Clara of Bavaria, and Prince Albert of Monaco, have also promised contributions. Prince Albert of Monaco, whose scientific explorations are world-famed, will send some large panoramas of the Polar regions, and a number of autochrome pictures, all done by himself. $ All the automatic telephone boxes at the Hauptbahnhof and the principal telegraph office in Munich were broken open and robbed on Thursday last.

Tannhauser, the minstrel, has been sojourning in the unholy Venus- berg, but prompted by a longing for a holier life he determines to leave the goddess. Her endeavours to restrain him are in vain and he returns to his old home. Here he is discovered by the Landgraf Hermann and his old companions. Entreated by them to rejoin their ranks, he at first refuses, but he yields to the* entreaties of his great friend, Wolfram, who tells him that the Landgraf’s niece Elizabeth still loves him. A great contest of song takes place at which, aftet other singers have sung in praise of ideal, pure love, Tannhauser extols the sensuous passion he has enjoyed in the Venusberg. The others in their horror are about to kill him, but at Elizabeth’s entreaties his life is spared and he, moved to repentance by the devotion of the maiden, determines to join a band of pilgrims proceeding to Rome and seek absolution from the Pope. As the time draws near for the return of the pilgrims, Elizabeth prays fervently for him and refuses to be comforted by Wolfram, when they return without him. Tann- hiuser does come back and relates to Wolfram how the Pope had cursed him and foretold that he would never be forgiven until his pilgrim's staff burst into green leaves. Tannhauser declares his intention of returning to the Venusberg, but the dead body of Elizabeth is brought in, and with a cry to her to pray for him he falls lifeless at her feet, while his staff is seen to be covered with green leaves.

The King’s customary offering of gold, frankin cense, and myrrh, in celebration of the Feast of the Epiphany, was tendered at a special service in the Chapel Royal, St. James’s, yesterday. The service was conducted by the Sub-Dean of the Chapel Royal (the Rev. Canon Sheppard, D.D.), and the priest- in-ordinary-in-waiting (the Rev. T. R. Hine Haycock), four priests in ordinary, and two deputy priests were also in attendance. The children of the Chapel Royal in their scarlet and gold dress lent a pic turesque touch of colour to the service. Following the Apostle’s Creed, the two gentlemen ushers in attendance, Mr. Percy Armytage and Mr, Thomas Kingsoote, presented His Majesty’s offering to the Sub-Dean, the three symbols being enclosed in a hag of crimson silk ornamented with gold, which reposed on a gold alms dish. There was a fairly large congregation at the service, and most of them remained for administration of the Holy Com munion. Following the usual custom the gold will be distributed by the Sub-Dean among a number of Royal pensioners. ENGLISH BANK AMALGAMATION. The secret of the amalgamation of the London Joint Stock Bank with the York City and County Banking Company was unusually well kept, writes the Globe. For some days rumours of an early fusion of important banking interests had been circulating in the City, but it was not until the contents of an official notice, sent out by the London Joint Stock Bank on Tuesday, became known, that the identity of the two institutions concerned was revealed. In the City the reputation of the London Joint Stock Bank, with deposit and current accounts aggregat ing £19,211,000, stands deservedly high; while in the provinces where it is represented the York City and County Bank is regarded as a powerful factor in the domain of finance. That it exerts .a wide influence in the Northern counties is apparent from the fact that its deposit and current accounts amount to £11,596,000, and that it has no fewer than 116 branches and 71 sub-branches. Shareholders in the York City Bank will receive three shares of the London Joint Stock Bank for every ten shares they hold, and a cash payment of 10s. for each share. Amalgamation seems to be the order of the day in the financial, industrial, and mining world. BRITISH TROOPS FOR EGYPT. London January 7. A detachment of the Coldstream Guards who have been selected for service at Khartoum left Waterloo Station yesterday morning. A farewell concert, organised by Lieut. Mackenzie Rogan, the regiment’s bandmaster, was given to the men on the previous night.
