= THE FESTIVAL OF LIGHTS. Last even
ing the Jewish Synagogue, on Sixth street,
was crowded to celebrate the Festival of
Chanucka in commemoration of the victo-
ries which Israel achieved, under the brave
leadership of the Maccabees, over their
cruel foes, Antiochus and Demetrius. 1t
was struggle for religion, which meant an
existence for Israel. The church, especially
the altar, was handsomely and profusely
decorated with myrtle, smilax and flowers.
DR.. Taubenhaus, the Rabbi made short
and eloquent address. He said they were
celebrating festival commemorative of
one OF the grandest events of humanity
| He claimed that the celebration of so his
| toric an event, and which formed such an
| important part of their history, should not
| be neglected but its story should be told to
every child. At the close of his
| remarks followed an interesting en-
tertainment by the scholars of the
Sunday-school The little folks had been
well trained, and their declarations, with
| out exception, were well recited and liber-
ally applauded. The programme, which
was interspersed with songs by the entire
school, was as follows Recitations, julius
| Morris Minnie Mooser, Esther Asher,
| Eddie Elkus, Lille Nathan. Sadie Asher,
Howard Phillips, Jennie Coleman, Joseph
Letzenberg, John Nathan, Philip Phillips,
| Louis Elllus, Celia Wilson, Joseph Nathan,
Birdie Nathan (encored). a dialogue,
Grandfather, Grandmother and their
Pets by five little girls and two boys.
| The grandparents were in costume The
others represented Patriotism. Love of God,
| Courage, Contentment and Liberty. Miss
Eveline Coleman sang a solo in excellent
voice, and was called out second time.
An excellent choir sang several fine selec
tons, John F. Cooper, organist. AT the
close of the exercises the Sunday-school
scholars were each presented with an elc-
giant present consisting mostly of books. 3
METROPOLITAN THEArER-The famous
Thompson Opera Company, with full
chorus and orchestra, will commence a
weeks engagement at the Metropolitan to-
night. Gilbert Il Sullivan's " Mikado,'
the reigning success, will be presented for
the opening, and it is promised that it will
bel put on the stage in style of magnifi-
cence heretofore unknown in the city.
The company is an unusually strong one
comprising nine soloistS and a well trained
chorus of thirty voices. The cast is an ex-
ceptionally fine one, and those who have
seen the Carleton company are invited to
make comparison between the artists The
Thompson company bring great quantity
OF beautiful scenery, and the costumes are
very rich. The prices of admission will be
81 for the dress circle, and 80 cents for the
gallery. Seats can be reserved at Hough-
tons without extra charge. The free list
will be suspended during the engagement.
In this connection it may be mentioned
that business manager Abraham, of the
Thompson Company, takes exceptions to
Mr.. Cartoons remarks from the stage of
the Clunie Opera House last Thursday
night, in effect that the Carleton version of
the Mikado' was the only authorized
version being rendered in America, and
that other companies had pirated that
that the "Mikado" has been decided by
the Courts to be public property in Amer
lea, and is being produced by numerous
companies. He himself was the first to
present it, which was at the Union Square
Theater New York, on the 10Th of last
July. He claims that the Thompson Com
pany have the correct version, and will
present itihis evening.
