piper. opera House.

II cannot DO denied that expectation
had reached a great hight concerning
the entertainment OF the Flyers Sisters
Combination at Piper's Opera House
last evening. II vas manifest in the
large attendance and in the eagerness
with which they ell awaited the raising
Of the curtain. II is not too much to
say that that expectation was fully real
lied. The play ''Out Of Bondage" in
aud OF itself would not be considered
much OF an evenings entertainment;
but II Is made the vehicle for q truly
wonderful and pleasing musical treat.
This begins with the first act and fol.
lows through to the final dropping OF
the curtain. At first, sin bondage. the
melodies are all OF the old plantation
kind and are most charming and most
charmingly rendered. One cannot but
feel sorry when u Of them Is ended
and almost fears the next n cannot be
as good; but there Is no lack OF excel.
lence in any Of them and while mostly
Of one class they vary sufficiently for
satisfaction. These continue without
much change till the last act. when art
supplements nature. and that, too. most
wslcomely. The duet from I'll Trova-
tore" by Miss Anna and Mr.. King Ii
tine enough for any stage. Here. too.
is a touch OF nature. where the reunion
takes place. which cannot be eIcslled.
Extremes meet most eharmingly. Miss
Anna has q pure soprano voice OF OF.
tended compass and very even register.
Asa high soprano she has few rivals.
She sings excellently as well rs
unsteady. Her sister. Miss Emma.
was hoarse last evening. and u OF
the beauty OF her voice was consequent
IL lost to the audience. who could not
but regret IL. Both sisters show excel
lent training In method and execution.
Mr.. King Is a fine tenor, but eIcsls much
more in quartetes and choruses than In
solos. lie sang with most happy effect
the Troyatore duet when behind the
scenes. Mr.. Lueca IL q sweet but not
very powerful base. The four make an
excellent quartet. There Is another fine
soprano aud another excellent alto In
the combination. "A q minstrel. Billy
hsrsands Is u success. His Coming
