PUBLIC AMusEfENTs.-lfolher Goosc.-
The receptions Of this good old dame, on
Saturday afternoon and evening, at the
Opera House, were attended by large
audiences. II Is the universal opinion Of
all who attended the "Mother Goose Re-
ceptions" that the entertainments were
the most successful ever produced in this
city by amateur talent. We are sure
that those who labored so faithfully in
the interest Of the Children's Home have
reason to feel gratiied at the result oil
their efforts. The receipts OF these en-.
tertainments are announced as follows:
Thursday evening, 1902; Saturday alter
noon, S242 20; Saturday evening, $249 So;
total, S794 25. The expenses are esti-
mated at $40, and II this estimate is cor
rect, nearly $500 was realized for the
Childrens Home by the three entertain
ments.
Prof. Zsra.-on Tuesday and Wednes-
day, Friday and Saturday Of this week,
Prof. Zsra will give series Of magic
entertainments at Washington Hall. The
Steubenyille Gazette says OF recent en-
tertainment given by Zsra in that city:
1.-THE entertainment given by Zsra at
Philharmonic Hall last night was worth
double the price, without considering the
possibility Of securing a prize. The
sleight-oi.hand tricks wereyery excellent,
and ELECTED much applause from the
audience. As ventriloquist, it is sell
dom that one hears his equal. The
talking Joseph and Timothy caused a
large sized laugh, which was kept up dur
ing that performance. The singing hand
was perhaps the best thing Of the eve.
ming. Zera dressed his hand up as a
prima donna and held It so the
separation and closing Of the first finger
and thumb represented lips. The ven.
triloquism in this case was as good as we
ever enjoyed. The mechanical figures
occasioned more amusement than any
thing else Of the evening. One boy hasn't
even stopped laughing at this unique
performance at this writing. For an
evening OF amusement we would advise
our readers 10 go see and hear Zsra to-
night"
ETe Elhlr.-The Pittsburgh Chronicle
says Of Miss Eilie EIlsIer, who appears at
The Opera House tonight as jeannettc
Brashear, in "Heroine in Rags": "Her
rendition Of the flower girl Is the most
graceful and attractive. II Is a character
which fits Miss Ellsler admirably. Tie
company Is competent in every way to
render her excellent support, and we
have no doubt that all who attend will
derive unalloyed pleasure from the per.
formances." Tomorrow night "Fanchon,
the Cricket" will be produced. Secure
seats early.

Goose reception, and to whom the sue.
ces OF the entertainment Is greatly due,
were Mrs. j. P. Harden, Mrs. A. w.
Campbell, Mrs. Culberison, Mrs. ]. D. Stan.
ton, Mrs. Frank Stanton, Miss Gertrude
Lamb and Miss Mary Roemer.
Mrs. Dubois played the accompani.
ments to most OF the solos, while Mrs. J..
D. Stanton trained and accompanied the
chorus. The latter lady was quite i'll
SATURDAY. and unable to come 10 the mat.
inee, which was the reason the chorus did
not 20 of so we'll at that performance.
IN the evening, however, hack was sent
for her and she took her place at the
piano again, though not feeling we'll at
all. Her presence enlivened the min.
strels again and they sung better than
ever before. We hope that the indispo.
sition Of Mrs. Stanton will not be OF a
serious nature.
Mr.. o. s. Long deserves credit as stage
manager, and Prof. G. Gutenberg as
business manager at the receptions.
