The SoRcERER.- Saturday even
ing Ford's English Opera Company gave
an enjoyable rendition Of the highly
ridiculous opera "Sorcerer. F" The
choruses were large ones and the musi-
cal parts were rendered in admirable
style. The burden Of the play fell upon
Mr.. George Denham who took the part
Of "Sorcerer." His representation OF
this character kept the audience con

powerless to come straight to the point
and ask the fathers consent 10 their
union is very cleverly worked up, and
last evening kept the audience i'll roars
OF laughter.
The shseing Of a horse on the stage
and the construction Of real horse shoe
upon an anvil, gives touch of realism
to the performance which is quite Of
fec:iye. The farmyard scene is we'll
