fIPERs OPERA HOUSE "UNDER
THE GAsLIGHT."- Augustin Days
great sensational drama of Under the
Gaslight was playedlast night, and was
received with the usual interest and
applause, n large audience being pres
ent. That piece always was n favor
lite, and never failed to attract q good
audience ut the Opera House. 1t cer-
tainly is of the most highly sensational
order, yet it is well written, contain-
ing, besides natural situations of thrill
ing interest and well-sketched Incl
dents Of everyday life, 4 considerable
sprinkling of really fine sentiment. 1t
will be again presented Tonight, and
III even better style than last evening.
We hope they will get up n little fire
and smoke on that locomotive, more
exciting and natural noise, and give
the train two rails to run on. As rep
resented last evening, the thing was
simply ridiculous. The pier scene and
other machinery effects were much
better. although the ferry boat was
hauled of the route.

walked straight into that hole, land

There he remained about an hour,
shouting like 4 good fellow until some
of his brother miners passing along,
heard him, got I rope and heiStcd him
out. Crosby heard him shouting, and
turned out to the rescue, but about
that time the poor fellow stopped to
rest, and, Crosby not seeing any M
outside, vert to bed again where he re-
manned till the miner found his voice
again, and his brother miners found
him.
