himself an excellent comedian, but sew.

better beon omitted. The other charac-
ters were all sustained in an admirable
manner, and the ohorous was very
strong and well trained. The entire
performance WAS very satisfactory and
highly appreciated by the audience.
Cinderella at School" will be given

audience will be larger than 1t was last
evening. This opera has bright score,
strong comedy features, and fine &C
