An Attractive Performance ut the operR
House this Evening.
This evening the brilliant and we'll
known comedienne, Alice Harrison, will
appear at the Opera House in a new and
sparkling larce.comedy, entitled "Hot
Water" which was written for her by
Messrs. Edward Hoist and Woolson Morse.
OF course it is unnecessary to dwell upon
the artistic merits Of Miss Harrison, as she
is already well known to the theatre.going
people. However, 1t might be apropos to
say that she still retains that magnetism
and native "chic" that has hitherto made
her so popular. Her tour Ia under the d.
rection Of Mr. N. B. Leavitt. The play,
"Hot Water" has been admirably named,
aud, as the title implies, keeps the various
characters in ludicrous positions, varying
from stew" to boiling" temperature.
The result Of the prize fight in act two,
where the contestants break through the
ceiling, and the "merry.go-round" and
balloon descent in the "ChRutante Odeon"
in act three arc two Of the most mirth pro.
vokiug scenes ever seen. The supporting
company, headed by Mr. Chas. S. Dickson

artists as Frank Girard, Fred Matthews,
