| OPENING OF THE TIyoLI Saturday sven
ing Turner Hall was opened as a Tivoli b,
the Elite Comic Opera Company. The houst
was crowded, SO much so that large mum
Der were turned away at the door, there moi
being standing-room. The opera of " Girsfe
Girofs was well rendered on both occasions
The "Chirnes of Normandy will be
given on Tuesday evening. The man
ayers are Edward Barrett and Frs k
Rohrback, OF San Francisco. The price OF
admission is 25 cents. Beer, liquors and CT.
CARS are sold throughout the audience. TIE
audience was fairly representative, perfect
order was preserved and the entertainment
was conducted very much after the manner
of like cheap amusements in San Francisco,
such SIS the Tivoli Winter Garden, etc. The
enthusiasm with which the singers were re-
ceived, and the generosity of the sp-
plause, should testify to the management
that the audience were well satisfied.
The leading singers were Miss Fannie
Morse, once well known here as Fannie
| Marston, leading soprano, with strong voice
well adapted to opera bouffe, and who showed
marked Improvement over any previous eff
forts here :; Frank Rohrbsck, a good tenor
for comic opera, who last night entirely re-
covered his voice, which he was unable to use

Mr.. Jansen. baritone Miss Ella La
Fevre, soprano Miss Noco McCabe, con-
tralto, and a number of female voices. The
troupe lacks basso. The orchestration WAS
satisfactory. By discreet management con-
corning the character of the auditors sd-
mitted, and which has thus far been pre-
served there would seem to be no reason
why cheap entertainments by the company
may not be maintained here for all those who

Postotfice in his buggy, and stepped into the
building to mail some letters. When he re-
turned, horse and buggy had disappeared.

various times and places, quickly appearing
and rapidly disappearing like a sort of Fly.
| ing Dutchmsn, the horse at the top of his
| speed, and two individuals under the highest
pressure obtsinsble from whisky constantly
| persuading him not to relax his efforts. The
owner of the property procured another
vehicle and started in pursIit, going down
| the Riverside road, ont to Brighton, ard in
! fact his search was continued nearly all

horse aud buggy at Paine's stable, where
| they had been taken by deputy constable
! Dole about baif-past 9 the night before, he
having found the horse, reeking with sweat,
on the street uncared for.
TIED UP.-The trading steamer Alvarado
was taken possession of by the United States
Marshal few days sinca on an order from
the United States District Court. It seems
that a year Of more ago she met with an acci.
dent and sunk. Parties entered upon the
work of raising her, but it proved difficult
aud Mr.. Rice, her owner announced that he
would not 90 to any further expense than he
| already had. The wreckers continued th7ir
work, however, and raised her, and subse-
| quently she was purchased from them in good
faith by George D. Bates of this city, who
reitted her as q trading boat. 1t appears,
| however, that she had not been formally
condemned and sold by the United States
Marshal Mr Rice has brought suit in the
| United States District Court to recover
possession of her, and she will probably be
tied up until the case is decided.
