Emerson has been engaged for limited sea-
son and will appear but six nights in this

those nights. Miss Louise n Baldwin, the
popular soprano, is with pis company, and
she may be assured of q hearty welcome by
all, as she is most pleasing singer There
are six people in the company, and all are
hrst-clsss artists. The programme for the
evening is certainly a most magnificent one,
and cannot fail to give the greatest satistac-
ton, and at the low prices of seats the hall
should he crowded.
