valet. while making a tour around the
world, from London via Suez, Calcutta,
Bombay, San Francisco, New York and I'm

character in every cline are necessarily
hurriedly given in q prologue and five acts.
There is ballet dancing, fancy dancing,
scenes of oriental splender, picture OF
life on the Union Pacific, an ocean yoy-
age and an explosion, and several love
scenes and marriages. Many of the tau

leading characters was splendid. Inc
leading lady Miss Dora Goldt4waite is
beautiful, the Kiralfy sisters and brother
dance finely; the ballet is pleasing, the
scenery new; the effects original; the dresses
very fine, and the eccentric gentleman just
gets back to London as the clock strikes
the last hour of the last day of the time he
has to get around the globe. The immense
audiencewss pleased. "
CaILender's Minstrsls.
Since their appearance here last Novem-
bes, Callender's famous Georgia Minstrels,
the old southern slave troupe, have been do
ing remarkable business In the West and
South. In Richmond their weeks engage
ment was the most successful of the season
excepting only that of Edwin Booth. In
Memphis the receipts for their four night"
performances were $2,700 greater even than
Barry Sullivan's noted success there. In
Chicago, where they appeared simultsne-
ously with the Kellogg English Opera
Troupe, and Reynolds "Henry "" and
other attractions, these favorite darkies
drew the bulk of the theatrical business,
saving the Kellogg Opera Troupe only who
on one oftheir off nights, visited the "Geor
gia's" in q body. In Boston over 10000
people attended their four weeks perform
ances, and they were commended by sucf
men as VIM. Lloyd Garrison, Oliver Wen

Barnum, James Parton, and many othe
members Of the higher professions. Th'
company will appear at the Opera Hous
on Monday, April II.
