ADJUSTMENTS.

| GRAND OPERA HoUsE.-Kit, the Arkansas
Traveller. continues to be the attraction at the
Opera House. Mr. Chanfrau has been greeted
during the week by large audiences. 1t is not
an easy matter to run a single speciality an en-
tire week in Memphis. Our people desire
change of programme occasionally. As
"Sam" and kit" Mr.. Chanfrau has made
himself famous, yet we prefer infinitely his
representation of Sam to that of the Ar
kansas nondescript. At the matinee to-day
Kit" will be presented for the last time, and
tonight on the occasion of Mr.. Harris bene-
fit, the Marble Heart will rule the stage.
OATES COMO 0PERA.-The little cantatrice,
danseuse and COME individual. Mrs. Oates,
will appear at the Opera House next Monday
night in the fairy extravaganza of Fortunio.
She has fine troupe; many of its people are
not unknown in Memphis. Mr.. Crane, the
absurdly ridiculous and funny man of the con-
Germ, and Mr.. Drew, whose Chrysodale Bah
ylos" is not forgotten, are yet with the COM
pany. As for Mrs. Oates, who can forget her
viyacity and ability as n delineator of the
comic operal
MEMPHIS THEATER.-M lie Ravel, the attrac-
tive pantomimist, appeared before a fair au-
dience last night in Jartine, the Pride of the
Fourteenth. The scenes are laid in Mexico

Ravel appeared in FIVE different characters,
portraying each with fidelity and success. At
the matinee to-day the French Spy will be
presenteds and tonight the fair pantomimist
will bid us farewell in Jartine.
"FLUcE AND FLOCK. The celebrated Maj
fit & Bartholomew troupe Of pantomimists
will open up a weeks engagement in a fairy
extravaganza, "Flick and Flock" intro
ducing strange tricks, transformation scenes,
fairies and other denizens of Elf land. A st.
Louis paper, in speaking of this troupe. says:
In the way of pantomime, st. Louis has
never had anything superior to the Mathtt- Bar
tholomew troupe, new performing at the ulym-
pic Theater. During this week the laughaoie
pantomime of Flick and Flock had decidedly
successful run, and for provoking mirth II
certainly deserved the full houses it received.
Mr.. Maffitt. as a clown, stands on the top
round of the ladder, and in the entertainment
of an audience he is we'll supported BY Mr.;
Bartholomew. the irrepressible " Pantaloen."
Tomorrow evening Jack and Gill, a charming
comic pantomime, will be brought on. In ad-
dition 70 the troupe proper, the Garnella chill
dren, Robert and Little Dick; Egyptian jug
glers; the st. PheliX troupe, and Willis Cobb,
with his performing dogs, monkey and goat,
take part in the entertainment, which is the
best anti-dyspeptic of the day.
