PIPgR's OrERA HoUsE-THE HowsoS
OPERA TRoUPE.-Last evening was the
second presentation Of the very pleas
ing and entertaining comic opera Of the
" Grnnde Duchesse Of Gerolstein." by
the famous tIowson Troupe, and it was
fully rs well received as On the first
evening passing of smoothly, and to
the satisfaction Of all concerned. The
charming sisters, Emma and Clelia How
son, are already established fnvori,es
with our appreciativc lovers Of the
opera, true melody and the comic
drama. Frank A. Howson ]personates
Prince Paul admirably, aud in exceed
ingly good taste, in fact, it is diff
cult 10 conceive how that cFemin-
ate, roppish, soft.headed, whimsi-
caily genteel character could be
better given, even by far better
actors than Mr.. lIowson claims to be,
he conforming perfectly to its correct
representation in meditation Of voice,
| general style and make up. lie may not
| be the best vocalist in the world, hut he
has the reputation of being n fine or
chestra leader, and one of the best in
StrUmental performers Oh the Pacific
coast. John Howson is also q t,lented
musician, and his rendition Of the pomp'
Gus and whimsically grand General
Baum is eXquisitely comical, and laugh
| able in the extreme. In that persona.
ton certainly he cannot be eScelled. A
change of programme is announced for
to.night. The entertainment will com
e with O~ffenbach's comic operetta
entitled " Tromb-al.Cazar OF the Dra-
matte G~riminals;" to be followed by II
grand concert of vocal music, II duet
from Mariana" by the liowSon SIS
tiers, Captain links of the Horse Ma
~r:ueS," by John Howson, the beautiful
cavntiua of Waiting" las sung by
Parepa-Rosa) by Emma lluwsOn, Il hal
lad by Celia Howson. and the whole
will conclude with the Adventures OF
Captain Fannie" in the curse OF which
john EiowSoa will appear in the " Gre
clan Bend" with sony, in full costume.
Surely this is a rich bill, aud calls for
another crowded house.

Pine operating for the last FIVE or six
months, has recently returned from
