OPERA HoUsE.-The audience that
assembled at our beautiful dramatic
temple last night, we're afforded
another rich treat in the way of good
acting. The play of Nick of the
Woods was put upon the stage in a
most complete manner. Mr. E. I.
Stetson, as the Jibbenainosay, perso-
mated the character in a manner that
moro firmly fixed the fue reputation
that he has already acquired
during his short sojourn in our city.
Mr.. Nichols, as the crafty Richard
Braxley, as usual, personated the
character to perfection. Miss Minnie
Monk. as Telie Doe, gave convincing
proof of the versatility of her genius
and talents. Frank Pierce, as Roar
ing Ralph Stackpole, eonvulsed the
audience with good humor every time
be made his appearance; and Harry
S. Dufield, as Col. Tom Bruce, Mrs
F. r. Pierce. as Mrs. Bruce, and Miss
Agnes Stanfeld, as Edith Forester
ably sustained their several charac
tiers.
The farce of Dodging for a Wifi
was very funny. and Harry S. DuffelC
made big hit in the character o
Lollypop.
This evening one of the best play
in the whole category of theatrica
pieces viii be presented. The splen
did drama of Rosedale, or the Riff
Ball, will be rendered in fine style
We can make this assertion, becaus
the company that is playing at tn
Opera House at present does nc
know how to play in any other way
tits q splendid play. and the hous
ought to be jammed. To morror
night is the last night Matinee to
morrow afternoon.
