Grand Free Oyster Lunch
INC herman Casino Unh

promise a fine entertainment next
Wednesday evening to their friends
and guests, The programme is full of
musical charms and other good
things. In addition to the operetta of
the Belle of Saratoga, characters to
be by members of the Casino and
their lady friends, there will be a
grand hop after the performance. The
overture is from Bellini's Somnam-
bula-a trio for flute, piano and vio-
loncello, by Messrs, Wilkins, Karch
and Shuttle. The same gentlemen
will perform the music of an entire
act from DOnnizetti's L'Elisor
d'AmOr. The author of the operetta
of the Belle of Saratoga is George
Cooper and the music by H. P. Dauks.
The characters are Pauline West
ern," soprano; Clara Rivers" con-
%tralto; George Ardent, a student"
tenor Sir Charles Grandiswell, an
English tourist" baritone Captain
Western, a returned officer basso.
The scene is laid at a fashionable Sar-
atoga hotel, where the foppish English
swell makes love to CLARA Rivers" a
rival of the belle, pauline Western"
The latter loves the poor student,
George Ardent" and she introduces
the lover to her father, the retired
officer, under an assumed name. The
father is anxious to make a match be-
his daughter and the Englishman, and
manages to get him to make love to
her, though already afianccd to
Clara" The young student goes to
the wars in Mexico. His sweetheart
grieves lonely for a year. CLARA" is
in trouble ovcr the Englishman 5 per-
Gdy, and while the father cndeavors to
bring matters to a climax between the
John Bull and the belle, word reaches
the latter by means of a note that the
real lover has returned, and is beneath
her window. An %elopement is arranged
to be frustrated, when the the true
situation is explained, and the we'd
ding bells wind up the whole business.
New stage, new scenery, and every
thing fresh, will doubtless make this a
most enjoyable affair.
