MAPLEsON's ROYAL ITALIAN OPERA.-The SUBJ
scription sale for the two nights was continu-
| GUS yesterday at the opera House. We are
| pleased to note that the precautions taken by
Manager Ford TO prevent speculation. were to
| large degree successful. A number recog-
| nlzed as Spectators or their agents were re
| fused, and, except well-knOwn bona TIDE opera
| gOers, no one could secure over five seats. In
some instances. however, 1t Is said that some Of
our citizens were induced to buy places for ticket
| agencies to sell again. 1t would be better to
procure seats only at the Opera House. and to
pay simply the established rate. Several hum
dred places are yet for sale. The sale for single
nights will commence at $50 Tomorrow Thurs
day. morning. In Baltimore, on Monday.
every seat for Gerster was sold, and the Cam
pan1ni sale was very near as great.
