COnley,s Varieties.

Last night, Oonley re-opened his variety
ut the corner of Third and ST. Peter streets.
An immense audience was in attendance to
greet the performance, not ono Of which was
sorry that he was there. The theatre has been
invitingly renovated; the auditorium and re-
treatment room are fresh and dazzlingly clean
IN new paint and convenient appointments.
The stage has been reset with entire new
scenery. and altogether the house Is coZy re-
SOFT foS nights amusement.
These are only comforts, but in addition the
management has provided frst-class enter
tainment. The troupe which holds the boards
Is the largest which ever had constant en-
gagement in the city, and embraces as good
variety talent as can be found in the country.
Conley visited Chicago recently and drew his
company from the first class variety theatres
there-the academy of music, the metro
polltan and Hamlin's theatre contributed their
quota OF artists to the grand gathering of
talent which was presented for the first time
last night.
The show is first class in every particular. 1t
abounds in sketches of merit artistically pre-
sented. Specialties and other amusing fea.
lures. The performance was undoubtedly the
best of the variety kind ever given in st. Paul,
the force being large and each performer being
commercially proficient in his part. On the
whole. Conley can be said to have
established a vaudeville theatre in this city,
which would do credit to Chicago, st. Louis o.
even cities of bigger pretensions. He deserves
liberal patronage for his generous effort tc
