and Theile, it is unnecessary to speak in de-
tail, their special merits having been enlarged |
upon on the occasion of their appearance here

list of the troupe, however, was new here.
She made good impression. Her voice is q
light flexible soprano and well cultured. The
programme embraced two numbers for Miss
Miller. She sang "Polonaise," from Mignon
by Ambrose Thomas, and at Was

complimentary encores. sang Welcome,
