PIPga's OPERA HoUsE.-Last evening
the charming, talented and melodious
Howson Sisters made their fourth APP
pearancc, and it certainly is not only
very complimentary to them and the
company Of which they constitute tho
chief attraction, but also TO their vcrs,.
tile and highly cultivated talents in the
musical and operate delincative line,
that their audiences show no signs OF
decrease, either in numbers or interest.
"After the Masque" was the frat piece
given last evening, II spicy little come
dietta in which there is lots of fun, and
also plenty Of desirable hugging done.
This was followed by II choice olio OF
delightful vocal ducts and ballads by
the sisters. Miss Clelia Howson's sweet
ballad of When Lubin Sings WAS
especially well received, and the beau
tiful and justly popular aria Of Sweet
Spirit, Hear my Prayer" WAS rendered
in most uuexceptionable style by Miss
Emms Howson. The concluding piece
was II. J. Byron's famous operate bur-
lesque " II Trovatore." 1t was rendered
in capital style, and kept the audience
in n merry laughing mood. Such u COM
biucd succession Of excellent and afro
cious puus i, seldom encountered either
in opera, drama or anything else.
Miss Emma Uowsou personated Man
rico in a peculiarly spicy. effective
and acceptable style, II Miss Celia
Howiou was very pleasing MS Lsonor".
John Howson succeeded admirably MS
Azucena, the Gypsy Queen, both in fall
setto voice and makeup. Harry Hawk
+ seems especially at home in the pieces
performed by the Howsous, aud did the
Kinchiu in most laughable and excellent
STYLE, same as he did Baron Puck
in the Grand Duchess This evening
another glorious feast Of musical fun is
prepared, including O~AenbHch's comic
operatta, entitled "Pierret,e, or the
Rose Of ST. Fleur." 4 grand matinee

BIC WATER SrRlEE.-The Virginia
and Cola Hill Water Company have
developed a large stream of water IN
their tunnel at the head Of Crown
Point Rrviuc. They already had quite
n nice little stream, but in order to
Increase it they were making n i" raise
from their tunnel to somc springs
known TO exist overhead. Night before
last, while fortunately no one was ut
work, the top Of the raise broke in,
with a huge rush Of warer-some hun
dreds of inches. II has subsidized con-
sidcrably, and will doubtless eventually
settle down to perhaps 30 or 40 inches
quite II valuable addition, however.
Thar BURGLAR CAPTURED. - Chief

ginia succeeded yesterday in capturing
n burglar, who is probably the same one
who tried to enter BrOdhuu'S tailor shop

lev, and q few weeks ago he succeeded

Gerolstein," the best and most amusing
operate piece ever produced on that
stage. 1t is q rich treat.
