Tho Colorado Opera Club.

YtThe first stage rehearsal of Brittle
Silver" took place last evening at the
Tabor Grand opera house. There was
q full attendance and the music went
well, Mr.. W. F. Hunt, the composer,
presiding at the piano, and Professor
Kaufman conducting. Stanley Wood
the author Of the libretto. acted ~
stage manager and prompter for this
occasion. A professional actor will
be secured to look after these matters
hereafter. The frat act of the opera
was given entire and a few Of the
solos in the second act were rchears-
ed. Although the people are not yet
well up in their "business," it was
apparent that with proper rehearsing
the opera will play with rapid and
pleasing action. One thing was very
evident. Neither the author nor
composer have initiated any of tho
recent successful comic operas. "Brit-
tie Silver" viii have to stand or fall
upon its own merits, for, unlike spill
lee Taylor it cannot catch the pop
ular favor - that did with echoes
from "Pinafore." The situations arc
such as only arise in the mountains
and the mines, and If such situations
are pleasing to the people the opera
will succeed. The choruses in "Brit-
lie Silver" are especially fine. Tho
finale to the first act, tOh, Veal Oh,
Yesl We See," is pronounced by
competent critics the best yet heard
in comic opera. Rehearsals of the
principals in the cast will be held al
most every day from the present time
until the production of the opera on
tho Esd Of January. The regular re-
hearsal will take place at the rooms
of the Colorado opera club to-mor-
row evening at half past seyen O'Clock.

sPEcIAL RAILROAD TICKETS.
An Interesting Case to Ticket ScaIpe
and Their Customers.

An Interesting Case to Ticket ScsIpsrs
and Their Customers.
A case involving some legal points interest
ing to both railroads and the travelling public,
came up in the municipal court yesterday. 1t
f. Phelps, of THE Milwaukee line, was ar
raigned on charge of larceny for
taking a ticket from a pas
senger, by order of the urailway company.
Thomas kamm'll, the prosecutor, on August
70 bought of the scalplng firm of Mulford &
Mckenzie, ST. Louis, SPECIAL ticket on the
Chicago q Alton railway. for St. Paul, via
Chicago, and over the Chicago, Milwaukee &c
st. Paul railway. The ticket was good until
October 20, aud the purchaser was
given draft on the st. Paul
branch OF milford s. Mckenzie for
one-half the amount paid for the ticket, 10 be
cashcd as a "rebate" on presentation of the
draft anG ticket together The ticket was
taken from HammiIl az Lacrosse, but he
was allowed to ria. 10 st Paul.
Hammill, through Counsellor Erwin held
that the Milwaukee road should have allowed
him to pay his fare and retain his ticket,
which was his property and poss 3ssed a pecu-
liar mercantile value. Hammil also Id
that, even if the Milwaukee ropd
could take up a coupon over
us own line, IL could not touch The return
coupon over the Chicago & Alton road, and
that the taking under such circumstances and
against his protest constituted larceny. Coun-
Bel for complainant moved for ten days time
to obtain evidence: First, of an agreement
between the Chicago & Alton railway and
the Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
railway to issue these joint tickets.
Second, of the authority vested
in the ticket scalpers by the Chicago & Alton
road to sell these tickets in the manner dis
posed of to Eammill.
The court inquired whether the conductor
acted under Instructions from the Milwaukee
Railway company in taking up the ticket
Judge Flandrau, counsel for defendant, an
swered in the affirmative, and the court dis
missed The case. AS the parties were fling
out OF court Jno. Willis, acting county attor.
ney in the ahsepce of Mr.. Egan, addressed the
court, stating that he felt very indignant at
the action of the court in dismsslng this
criminal action without hearing the evidence,
and wanted, as representative of the people,
TO file protest against that form of pro-
cedure.
There are hundreds of persons travelling on
tickets similar to the one taken from Ham
mill, and there will doubtless be some further
developments in the near future.
