1896.
Ada Rehan - was Ada Rehan - but her 1819 costumes were awful - most of them. Mrs. Gilbert & James Lewis made a funny pair - both very good. Mr. Herbert was a dear, blonde, uniformed, curly-headed Cousin Leopold - in love with Cousin Lilli, of course. Both Bruno Von Neuhoff & his uncle the General are in love with Countess Gucki - but of course the young man is the successful one. There is only one scene - 3 acts - a very pretty scene, too. Empire-inlaid tables &c.&c. It poured on the roof of the theatre & still rained when I came out, but it was my last afternoon, so I walked up Broadway & 5th Avenue - rain or no rain. The couples, broughams & hansoms were very numerous. March 29. Sunday. Everyone who was out was riding. I stopped in to see an exhibition of paintings on 5th Ave. not much good. When I got to the hotel sat in the cozy corner for nearly two hours "swapping experiences" &c. with Claude, and then had an hour long dinner & wrote a couple of letters (to music) before going over to the 9 o'clock train. It was the fast mail with only a Rochester car on- and full of Rochester people. Mr. & Mrs. Watson had the state room. Segar the bicycle saddle man (the young man) was on - & Mr. Brinker & Mr. Lew Allen &c.&c. Mr. Allen came & amused us half an hour. He's funny. I read some "Sentimental Tommy" & observed people & went to bed at 11 am slept very well, too - only woke up once or twice & went right to sleep again. The porter called me about quarter of seven and we arrived about quarter of eight. Got a car at State Street. It
