MUSIC AND THE DRAMA.


The tickets for the performance of Pocahon-
tas, by the Liliputs at Portland Theatre, Fri
day and Saturday, are selling rapidly at the
box office. The Norristown Herald says:
If there is any desire in Norristown to wit
ness un ique, but withal a thoroughly en-
enjoyable entertainment that desire should
manifest itself tonight by crowding Music
Hall The performance last night was attend
ed by an immense audience, and it is seldom
if ever that the hall has resounded with such
applause as greeted the little artists. The op-
eretta is a melange of popular airs strung to-
gether with witty dialogue, replete with
bright sayings and local hits Persons usually
imagine that extremes in size, both large and
small, are accompanied with weak mental de-
velopments, but the members of this company
prove the fallacy of such reasoning, Miss Jen-
ME Quigley, the leading soprano, is fine vo-
calist and acts her part with such vicacity and
intelligence as to gain the favor of the audi
ence at once. Admiral Dot fills the stage with
his acting, fguratively speaking, as thorough
ly as does Col. Orr, literally speaking His
voice is wonderfully strong, and it was the
general query, "Where does it come from?'
The few moments OF specialties which closed
the entertainment were very enjoyable, and
served to impress still more upon the audience
the versatility of the abilities of the little prod
igies. 1t was altogether a marvellous enter
tainment, and was honored with the presence
of our most distinguished citizens Come
again and remain longer.
