PnrrR's OPRRA HorsE.-ln spite OF
the furious snow storm last night. the
Lanyard Comedy Company were greeted
with q crowded house. The perform
ancs opened with the popular old play
entitled, "Nayal Engagements" In
which Lingard appeared as Admiral
Kingston. and Howard Paul AZ Lsuten-
ant Kingston. The denoument OF the
plot was very interesting. as on the eve
Of their approaching marriage, tho
father and son change brides. and each
Is married to the lady who is
suitable to his own ago. Howard Paul,
In the role Of AN old played out bum
mer. exhibited the points OF a first rate
comedian. and sang a pathetic ballad
that was intensely funny. The piano
forto solo by James Moran cannot DO
criticised rs IL was scarcely heard. 1t
was accompanied by three other instru-
ments, including q cornet, and the per-
sons In the lower part Of the
thsater kept up such an tnces-
sant noise that tho sound OF the
piano could only DO with,dificulty distin-
cuished. Tho character sketches Of
William Horace Lingard were by far tho
best part OF the entertainment. His
changes Of costume were made with ex-
traordinary rapidity and the representa-.
ton Of each individual was accompanied
by appropriate and amusing ballads.
His assumption Of tho character OF an
old maid and the story OF her three Of
fers Of marriage, was perhaps tho bost
Of his representations, though his MI.
tations OF tho Emperor Wilhelm aud
General Grant could scarcely DO improv-
cd upon. Horace Greeley was brought
out perfectly and ELECTED q storm OF APP
plausc. He also In two minutes time
drew O perfect likeness OF Ben Butler
upon canvass. The entertainment was
slightly marred by tho long pausss be-
tween the different stages OF the per-
Torrance, but this will DO remedisd to-
night. when the amusing comedies o '
Tho Mother" and ''The Viewers" will
DO presented rs well y Lingard's char
actcr sketches.
