Last night at the Grand 0pera-house the
eminent comedians, Robson and Crane,
opened an engagement in Shakspeare's
Comedy of Errors" with the stars as the
1.-TWO Dromios'' and Mr.. Webb as the
aged Merchant of Syracuse" The piece
was presented here for the first time last
season and drew immense houses. 1t is
masterpiece of comedy that can seldom be
played. and never again in this generation.
in all probability, will it be seen under the
favorable auspices that now attend it Mr..
Cranes imitation of Mr.. Robson's peculiar
piping voice is wonderfully accurate. The
support is very fine. John Marble was so
many years here that every theater goer
feels personally acquainted with him. He
is as good as ever, which is saying volumes
for him. Mr.. Lipman is also an old Gin
cinnati favorite. Miss Proctor, Miss Myers
and Miss Robson are also fine artists and
complete very fine support. Every even

Rice's Evangeline Company, at this
house, had good audience, and the famil-
lar but popular piece is very we'll rendered
by the present organization. All the old
attractions are presented, the music is ex-
cellent, and the piece altogether as enjoya-
BILE as when last seen here two years ago.
The leading members of the present conf
panv are very attractive and accomplished
artists. Miss Dora Wiley has most beau
tiful voice, and just fits the character oi
"Evangeline." and Miss Searle makes the
very best Gabriel" that has essayed the
role. "The Lone Fisherman" is as quaint
as ever, and all the other novelties are first
rate. "Evangelne" will be presented every
night, and at the Wednesday and Saturday
matinees.
| HEUCK's OPERA HOUSE.
The "Big Four Minstrels' drew full
house at Heuck's last night The first part
was good and the wind up full of fun. IA
Lover in Distress followed, and proved
satisfactory. Johnny Allen, in songs
and funny sayings, the well-known
Charles Hevwood, the female impersonator,
was called on the second time, but had the
house been light he would probably have re-
ceived no applause. Next came the world
renowned big Four" Smith, Waldron,
Morton and Martin, in songs, dances, gro
tesoue specialt.es, ETC., and they proved to
be half the show and drew forth round
after round of applause. Theo. Jackson
and the Kline Brothers were comparatively
good. The performance concluded with
Private Theatricals," very clever act, by
the whole company.
