RESUME OF THE WEEK.


The amusement ps5ulum dished up &c
the st. Paul public during the past. week
has been small as to quantity and very
thin as to quality. The week opened at
the Opera house with an alleged drama
called Pop" presented by Rice's Sur
prise party.
From dramatic point of view apop' is
as tart thing as We have witnessed for
month of Sundays. It is dramatic
crazy quilt and it might have been put
together with sledge hammer or an ak.
As g variety and burlesque entertainment
the show is good, and the people do some
very clever specially business. The sing
ing Is good, and there is enough jingle and
spice about the acts to make them very
acceptable.
The party closed rather slim engage
ment Wednesday night, and the dizzy
dudes, song and dance men, burlesque
performers, smart clothes and fine prop
erty effects hied them to the burg up the
stream.
THE BOSTON IDEALS.
This week the amusement goers of the
city are promised something fine in the
appearance of the Boston Ideal Opera
company. The Ideals begin a
weeks engagemement at the
Opera house tomorrow night,
appearing in repertoire of light but
very bright and attractive operas. Sew
eral of the operas have not hitherto been
given by the Ideals in st. Paul,
and a pleasing curiosity exists to
hear them in these productions.
The vocal ard dramatic ability
of the several prominent members of the
company is so we'll known and appreciat-
ed in st. Paul that extended reference in
this respect is unnecessary. Such artists
as Whitney, Bsrnebee, Karl, Frothing-
ham, Marie Stone, Miss Ulmar, and others
equally as good in their way,
are so thoroughly established in the good
graces Of the public as to require NO
further commentator. The sale of seats
commenced on Thursday, and it has been
the most successful advance sale the com
pany have ever had in st. Paul.
This Is saying a good deal, when ons re-
caiI5 her past triumphs n this city. Up
to last night tie sic aggregated about
$4,000 and everything indicates a
successful engagement financially,
which IS already assured,
There is every reason TO suppose that the
engagement viii prove highly satisfactory
and enjoyable from a musical and artistic
standpoint. The week Will open with
'Fetniiza' the musical beauties of which
are conceded and that IL will be given a
splendid interpretation VIC are assured.

THE METEoRs.
A week from to morrow night Evans.
Bryant & Hoey's Meteors will open an en-
gagement at the opera house, in which the
great Book Agent" act will be introduced
to the St. Paul public.
In ailuaing to the show, New York ex-
charge speaks as follows:
Evans, Bryant q Hoey's "Meteors''
opened the week at the popular and hand
some Mount Morris theater on Monday
evening to full house. This is strong
variety organization. From the rising of
the curtain to the end of the show the PEG
pie fairly 1oared with laughter. Every
act in the bill is amusing, and the whole
entertainment is one to be enjoyed. The
e programme winds up with very comical
sketch g conceit in zone scene and a
flash" entitled "The Book AGENT Hearty
laughter greeted the "Meteors" last night
