NATIONAL THEATER-The "COmedy of Er-
he large houses that are at the National every
evening. Robson and Crane, as the two "Dro-
Mos put more vim into the play than the
Shakespearean scholar would ever realize from
reading it. 1t will be played tonight and at
the matinee tomorrow.
FORDs OPERA HOUsE.-Another large audi
ence was at the Opera House last evening, and
Judging from the laughter and applause, it Is
very likely that Her Majesty's ship will have a
long cruise in these waters. The matinee Wed
neSday was exceedingly well attended, no
doubt from the fact that all reserved seats are
placed at the low figure of 80 cents, instead OF
IS as heretofore. Ladies and children wishing
to attend the Saturday matinee should have
their seats secured In advance.
THEATER COMIQUE.-MiSs May FiskS troupe
OF English Blondes at the COmique are drawing
wen. The house is crowded nightly Good
music and singing are also pleasant features OF
the performance. 1.-The French Brigands' with
which the show concludes, is taken part in by
all the company, and is very attractive por-
ton OF the programme.
MCCAuLEY's HALL.-A musical and literary
entertainment for the benefit OF the Mission
sunday school at this hall this evening. A
pleasant time is promised all who attend.
