being the fourth representation OF
cinderella" last evening, the Opera
House was not 70 well crowded US the
true merits of the company call for.
The entertainment, however, was q
most excellent n As usual, and
passed of admirably, to the satisfac-
ton Of all present. "Cinderella" Is
IL Of the prettiest Of burlesque ex-
travaganzas, and the title character
was very well sustained by Miss Katy
Wilson. Cox's rendition of Clorinda
was an exquisite piece Of burlesque
drollery ; and Sue Robinson, as Dam
dino, could not well be excelled in any
respect. The dancing in the grand
Star Ballet, the Cinderella Ballet and
the Can-can was indeed beautiful and
artistic. The San Francisco people are
about equally divided rs t which of
the famous dancers they prefer, Bon
fanti or Sangalli. The graceful, fin
ished and easy dancing of Bonfanti
was their first love, vet the bold, DASH
ing. grand. reckless style of the glori-
Gus Sangalli. now performing with her
troupe at Maguire's Opera House,
equally commands their enraptured
admiration. We think, after having
seen them both, that our theater-goers
would be better pleased with Bonfanti.
The entertainment last night COM
menced with the favorite farce Of
A. Unt,,y Daly.r ~ - ,..htnh nnH tntn,tfo-
BILE, popular favorite, Sue Robinson,
sustained the title character IN her
usual highly acceptable style. Sue
Robinson, as an actress rs well as 4
lady, has more true friends in this
section than any other artist ever APP
Tearing among us. This evening the
finest play Of the season, the .'Corsican
Brothers," will be produced in most
excellent style. Sue Robinson appear
ing in the dual character Of the two
brothers. Fabian and Louis di Franchi,
in which she achieved such triumphant
success at its first presentation Oh that
stage two or three years ago. Some
particularly choice, classic and beau
tiful dancing will also be done by
Bonfanti and the other famous dancers.
Their engagement Is nearly completed,
therefore all who have not seen these
celebrities should SO tonight.
The CHORAL SocIETy.-Our local
and vocal delegation to the great mu-

the Howard Benevolent Society Of that
place. which was very fully attended,

mcnto Union Of yesterday morning
thus speaks OF il: 1.-THE Congrega-
tional Church was crowded to its ut
