Urso drew very large and apprecia-
tive audience last evening. Always
favorite here, she was never more
so than on this OCCASION, as the un-
mistakable genuineness of the tokens
of appreciation thoroughly demon
strated. The selections were such
as to do full Justice to her remarka-
bic powers as violinist, which were
never shown to better advantage be-

tributed greatly to the enjoyment of
the evening.
The new and pleasing comedy of
"Shief Agar" was produced at the
Opera House. last evening, by the

scope to the varied acc omplishments
with which these artists have de-
lighted audiences in times past.
Last night the lady and gentleman
appeared to excellent advantage in
their respective parts, and evoked the
most hearty applause. We doubt if
a better natured couple than Mr. and
Mrs. Sullivan ever visited Elkhart in
professional way, and this together
with their merit as artists has always
made them prime favorites here.
They have excellent support in Fred
Wildman as Fannanough, Frank
Hartwell as Harvey Black, Florence
Hartwell as Nesta Clancady, Julia
Sullivan as the widow Mernaun and
Morris Flynn as John Wexford,
while the lesser characters were bet
ter sustained than usual. The play
"Shiei Agar" abounds in thrilling
situations and is over running with
true Irish wit and fun. The propre-
tor with commendable foresight has
mounted it in excellent shape, the
scenery adding largely to its attrac-
tons. Considering the weather a
good house greeted it last night, and
judging from the expressions we
heard, the play fully met expecta-
