THE OPERETTA of Lilly Bell given at the
Opera House on Friday evening Of last week, was
quite success financially, in spite Of the unto
ward weather, and as q display of musical tai.
ent and managerial skill, came up to the highest
antcipatiOns All honor to Mrs. Hull and Miss
Farnsworth, who had the sole supervision and
bore all the responsibility The Operctta, though
rather lengthy and somewhat monotonOus, is full
Of very charming bits of music, and with voices
like those of Miss Farnsworth, Miss McNair Miss
Van Buren, and Miss Hard, under apparently per-
feet training, the audience got all there in it..
Tie matchlcss voice and thorough culture of Miss
Farnsworth were. so well known that something
like perfection from her was anticipates; but the
rich, full and flexible soprano Of Miss Van Buren,,
the ilutc.likc sweetness Of the alto OF Miss Laura
McNair, and the mellow voice and dramatic
power developed by Miss Hard were each in turn,
a genuine and delightful surprise. There was
something lacking in the management Of the forty
odd fairies. The delight created by the little by
play of the pretty little Hattie Prescott and the no
less sweet and cunning little Miss Cameron,
demonstrated how immensely more in the specta.
cular way could have been added by making q
more liberal use of a vast amount Of material that
seemed almost supcrluOus.

\ Discussed BURGLAR.--On Wednesday night
last some one attempted to burglarizc the desk in
the office OF the Starch Factory by cutting out the
drawer. After breaking through the door he cs-
sayed the task of digging out the lock with some
sharp. instrument, but proved TO be an awkward
workman and cut his fingers badly as is cvnccd
by plenty of blood on the desk and the floor. He
Abandoned the job evidently in disgust. He
would have been more intensely mad at his infc.
rior luck had he got the drawer OPEN us it con.
tanned only bundIe of bad or scaly accounts, up.
on which the company will give handsome per.
ccntagc for collecting the money due.
This incident has caused some anxiety not TO
say distress, on the part of many persons who
have hitherto borne an unblcmshed character.
No one now is willing to be seen around with u
hand or finger recently cut without bcin. able to
explain satisfactorily how it was done. We know
of an alderman who has an extensive slash on the
fingers of his left hand and it was put there some
time not far from the night Of that burglary, but
he is ready to swear that he was never in the of.
flee of the Starch Factory in his life.
