METROPOLITAN THEATER.-" La File dc
Madame Angot was sung last night by the
Soldene troupe to house by no means SC
large as the merits of the performance de-
manded The opera was sung with charming
effect, and was put on the stage very hand
somely. 1t was decided success, and the
fol
curacy and with nicely of detail that was
very pleasing. 1t was an artistic perform
ance, and was to the special credit of Stella,
Campbell and the chorus. Stella indeed
proved herself unquestionably superior to the
California favorite, Melville, and proved her.
self the peer in this character of many one
who has made more pretentious claims than
she, beside which she combines the rare quail
tiles of accomplished vocalism, the
purity of melodious voice and
the art of the thorough comedian. She re-
ceived wel-merited call before the curtain.
Miss Soldene had part vocally subordinate.
She sang her limited numbers with ease. and
in the duo with Clarette, in the second act,
was especially happy, the two winning
hearty encore. M. Lecocq's music is not of
strong color; it is light, sparkling, vivacious,
and its leading passages embrace combina-
lions that afford the singers ample opportu-
nifty to develop harmonies of much beauty
The very general request that 'tOlivette"
should be repeated has been acceded to by
the management, and that successful and
unsteady satisfying comic opera will be given
again tonight The announcement ought to
be sufficient to fill the house, for the music is
worth it, and the play is worth it over again.
CATCHING RATs.-They are troubled with
rats at the City Jail. Night before last the
officers and TRUSTEES arranged an old-fashioned
box trap and primed it with fresh meat bait
for catch. Yesterday morning the box
was found sprung and closed, and of course,
from one to a dozen rats were in hand as
trophies of their trapping skill. Accordingly
the box was placed in an open space in the
center of the yard, and all the officers present
and TRUSTEES formed into large circle, hold
ing dogs and bludeeons ready to let loose for
the fray. One of the number then ventured
up cautiously and raised the lid, when it was
found that fat cat at the Jail had eaten up
the bait and was sitting unconcerned in one
corner of the improvised trap. None of the
officers will admit now that they set the trap
for rats, or that they have any around there.
