F1FTH-AvENUE OPERA COMPANY.
This company opened Monday night with
"Fatinitza" to fair audience in size and a
very fine one in character and appearance.
The piece is elegantly put upon the stage,
and the company is good one. The

well rendered, and is very pleasing. In
some of the parts the company is very
