better prospects, there being some
Easter buyers in market for both horses

The Opnrn Mouae.

Miss Katie Putnam played "Fan-
chon" last night to Is full house, sup
ported by her company. II was u
brave thing for this plucky little ac-
tress to do, when she undertook to give
ls an original interpretation OF part
which has for many years been con-
sidered almost the special property OF
Miss Maggie Mitchell. Those who
have seen that artist and who saw
Miss Putnam are nevertheless loud Ia
their praise and appreciation of Miss
Putnam, who gave last night very
natural, excellent and highly credita-
BILE performance of the role. There Is
no reason why she may not continue
to achieve both fame and fortune as
Fdnchon, a part which gives her fine
opportunities Of showing increased
power and dramatic force.
On Saturday there will be matinee,
and at night great bill.
