GRAND ENGLISH OPERA" ROMEO AND JU'
LIET."-A Cincinnati paper says OF Miss
Abbott in her recent appearance there that
she was greeted by fine audience, and one
which was determined to see her bright lit
tie face as often as possible, and to hear her
sweet voice, too. Recalls, therefore, were
the order OF The hour, and hearty enthu.
siasm prevailed during the entire perform
ance. Miss Abbotps Juliet was noble
conception. Her faculty Of purifying the
realistic OF its grOsser elements originates
in her own good heart. and the subtle
charm hat makes her Juliet and her Virgil
MIA 50 beautiful is the charm of her own
character, and not stage accomplishment.
The revelation from the balcony OF her
love for Romeo is exquisite: her terror at
the thought OF the tomb thrilling; ana her
final death by the side Of her lover some
thing really remarkable. Miss Abbotts i'm
personation OF Juliet would make the name
and fame Of any 2rys,e. and 70 second rank
can be assigned her with justice.
Mr.. Castles Romeo elevated him to the
height OF bis old popularity, and permitted
him TO show himself worthy lover Of
Juliet. He, too, more than once aroused
his hearers to applause. His clear voice
found ample scope for expression, and
nothing short Of grand opera is fully worthy
his high talent. Equal excellence ebarac
terized the performance OF the minor parts
in the play, which. taken aS a whole. was
one of the most finished productions ever
upon the stage OF Pixies. and Gounod's
Romeo and juliet" with such an intro
duciion, ought 10 become IA peer in pOpu-
larity with all the Older fayorites.

1.-THE Two ORPHANS "-EAsTER.-Ma
ger Ford will present TO our public on Easter
Monday at both matinee and night perfor-
nance the eXquisitely touching play Of
"The Two Orphans" ltteacbes great les
son. It, pathos and purity chM acterized it as
great play, and, as acted by Manager Ford's
company, will reach the highest standard.
Miss Marie Bockel rs the suffering Louise
and Miss Belle Mackenzie as devoted Hem
riette will be a pair Of lovely orphans, who
cannot fail to win admiration and sympathy.
Mrs. Jane Germon as the tender Countess
will prove most worthy the sacrifice OF her
nephew's daring appeal TO her husbands
honor. Mr. Downing is the heartless
Jacques to the perfection OF ART, aud Mr..
George Demham in the dual character OF
Pierre and Picard will alternate pathos
and comedy. Marianne, as portrayed by
Miss Blanche Thompson. wins applause
for her courage and srf-sacriice to save the
two orphans, whose purity had touched
her almost hardened heart and made her
good woman. With tins great play and
such cast, new scenery, and handsome
dresses, Manager Ford's company Will no
doubt receive hearty Easter greeting on
Monday.

A Careless Postal clerk nobbsd.
stolen neEistersd Mail Recovered

Omaha. Dec. 24-l.ast Saturday af-
ternOon John Davis, a postal clerk on
the Union Pacific railway, forgot 10
mail some letters dropped in his ear,
and putting them in his pocket, carried
them home, forgetting TO put them in
the postoilice, as he should have done.
That night his house was burglarized,
and his clothes with the letters were
stolen. The letters were found in the
street next morning, all having been
opened. but the contents were not
taken. One letter contained draft
for Sl7, 900; others contained drafts for
small amounts. The letters were
dropped in car at the Union Pacific
depot. The case has just become pub
lie, and Davis has been suspended and
the matter will be investigated. lie
has been in the service fourteen years,
and has good record.
On March 18th, 1877, registered
mail pouch on the Union Pacific was
stolen at or near Central City, Neb.,
and II was soon afterwards found near
the Platte river by a squaw, from whom
IL was recovered, together with the
contents, among which were $500 in
postage stamps. II was strongly sus-
pected that Hon. Ed. Parker, formerly
a member OF the Nebraska legislature,
committed the theft. lie disappeared
and has ever since been wandering
about. The authorities have been look
ing for him ali over tho western coun-
try, but never got on his trail until last
night, when drunken man was arrest
cd on the streets and proved TO lie Par
ker. Parker was an eccentric charae-
ter; wore long hair and n buckskin suit
u few years ago and affected frontier
airs. lie started out on theatrical
trip in the Buffalo Bill style, but made
a lamentable failure, owing to too much
whisky.
