Amusements,
METROPOLITAN THEATER.-''The Octo-
room was played last night. Lewis Nor
rison, concerning whose ability and popu-
larity there is no need to enlarge. was
supported by Rose Wood, an accomplished
artlste OF fine presence and emotional
powers; by Miss Rosabelle Roy, piquant
and pleasing young actress; Willie Sims,
one OF the best known of low comedians
*. &. White an excellent actor; Frank
Richardson, a competent actor, and Louis
and Kitty Belmour, reliable and palms.
taking stock actors. Lizzie Francis ac-
ceptably filled the juvenile part. Eight
Others appeared III support, and in addi-
ton there was presented a troupe of colored
Jubilee Singers, including some little chaps
who We're very amusing. In the brake
scene there was presented a fine scenic
effect. There were some bitches and bad
stage settings prior to that, which will
scarcely be permitted to occur tonight
when the piece will be repeated. The com
pany IS very large one, and. with Mr..
Morrison, Miss Wood, Miss Roy, Sims, the
Belmours, Richardson and the others, is a
combination that should draw well. The
orchestra last evening was very happy in
It's selections, and eXcelled in their execu-
ton. The admission has been placed at
80 cents and % cents for this engagement,
and there IS no extra charge for reserved
seats. 1t IS worthy of note, by the way.
that the outer seat of the rows in the par
quet have been removed-a decided i'm
provement.

presented the Shaughraun " last night.
The new scenery by Mr. Wilkins is very
hne; II Is to be regretted that portion of
the landscape in the first act is cut oil by
the flies. The revolving prison scene was
an entire success and novelty Mr.. Ward
as Conn appeared to excellent advantage,
and comes very closely to the standard es-
tabllshed by Boucicault, who PLAYED it here
some years ago. Perhaps Wards brogue is
4 little stronger or thicker than the Bouci-
caut model, and might be improved by
little more clearness in enunciatiOn Mr.
Staley, in a totally new role, achieved a
marked success rs the priest. Mrs Cotton
was presented to good advantage, also, in a
vigorous part. Mrs. Ward was as round
and happy and mirth-provoking and musi-
cal as ever, and met with a cordial recep-
uon. Ward has every reason to be pleased
with his success, while the management,
even though its treasury count may not have
been laborious, has the satisfaction of
knowing that the stage effects were of the
ilrst oTder-no better scenery having been
shown here. The play will be repeated to-
night, the admissions being 50 and % cents
The orchestra gave three special selections
well last night, the last being notably good.
