THE MINTO

What Captain Pinlayson Says.

This forenoo», Mr. Lord, ag-nt of the Department of Marine in Charlottetown, received a letter from Captain Finlayson explaining why the Misto did not come to this port last evening. ln Captain Fiolay 30n’s opinion the Minto could not get into Hilleborough Bay berause of the ice. Be tween the block house and the bell buoy there was much thin sheet ice, and from the belle buoy to Pot Prim rafted ice was encountered. The steamer with all her power fairly worked through this ice, but on several occasions nearly stopped. After getting tothe southward of Poiat Prim she had drifi ice all the way to Wood Islands. He considered the condition of the ice well before deciding to go to G.org: town, and if possibie he would have returned to Charlot etowa.

Scenery That Acts,

Seenery that acts! If Wagner had wrought no other revolution on the operatic stage, he would deserve our gratitude. Take for purpose of -com- parison the vessel in “L’Africaine” and the skip in the first act of “Tristan and Isolde.” The former shows the section of a vessel as neatly divided into various compartments as a box ot seed samples. If the scene is well done, if, when the double basses begin to rumble and the_ ship begins to roll, the women shriek: in their com- partments, the priests pray in theirs, and the savages whose canoes would surely have been swamped in the storm, supposing they could have been launched at ali, climb over the ship's side and massacre everything in sight —well, we see the cleverness of it and are entertained, but hardly horror stricken or overcome by terror.

Qn the other hand, the ship’s deck in “Tristan,” with its group of silent men near the helm and its passion torn woman in the foreground, the dis- tant horizon line suggesting the sea far more effectively than a whole platoon of mechanically “worked” waves pos- sibly can, creates illusion and atmos- phere. and forms as much a component part of the music drama as the sing- ers and orchestra. The ship in “L’Africaine” is a clever bit of stage mechanics; the ship in “Tristan” js scenery that acts.—Gustavy Kobbe ip Century.
