Rtrhru0uti Theatre.

Yesterday afternoon and night the
Theatre audience were taken by sur
prise. The Academy Opera Company
gave at the matinee very pleasing and
excellent rendition Of Strauss opera
Prince Methusalem, and at night
OfIenbach's LA Perichole. b" Miss
Jennie Winston, in both operas, did
full Justice TO the roles. The apprecia-
ton Of her singing and dramatiza-
ton was shown BY frequent encores.
Her drinking song in the second
act Of La Perichole was artisticslly and
beautifully sang and il had three en-
cores. Miss Louise Searle was very
charming and acted and sang with
taste and finish. Messrs. Appleby,
Bell, Hogan, and Hazeman were all
good. and Appleby's solos in the Me-
thusalem were thoroughly enjoyed.
The chorus is in good training and sang
admirably. The ladies are graceful and
pretty, but there perhaps may be an
increase in the male voices OF the cno-
rus TO make j; unexceptionaole.
The houses were good, but not such
rs a company like the Academy Opera
Company has the right to expect.
