ADJUSTMENTS TO-
Grnnd Opera.HOuse.

Maggie Mitchell appears this evening in
the celebrated domestic drama =" Jane
Eyre" taking the tito role. This Is q
part that draws heavily upon tho abilities
Of an emotional actress and has not been
dsdained by many actresses of elninencc.
The thrilling interest Of the novel has been
transferred with great ability to the play.
The character Of Jane Eyre is one that al
lows deep study Of analysis. IL Is one of
the most wonderful creations In literature.
1t is more fitted for the quiet analyzation
Of tho metaphysician than for representa-
iion upon a stage but the dramatizatlou
has been made with wonderful ability. The
performance this evening will be witnessed
with absorbing interest.
THE National Theatre.
I'VE, Us & Go. is rendered in three acts,
each one Of which is filled with musical Sc
leetions. The first act represents DOCTORS
Office. in which all manner of funny things
happen. The scene Of the second act is
laid in Hot Springs, Arkansas, and the
mud baths prove healing balm to all
the patients. Tho last act shows tho
Sunny Side Hotel, every room Of which can
be made sunny, owing to the revolving ma
ture of the house.

Ford's opera House.
The crowds that will doubtless flock to
Ford's tonight to see Rice's Surprise Party
in the amusing musical farce "a Bottle Of
Ink" should prepare for three hours of un-
restrained mirth. The company includes

tresses Miss Ida Mule and Mile. Verona jar
beau. The success and appreciation that
has attended Mr.. Rico's efforts are an as
surance that whatever he presents to the
public will be eminently worthy Of its ap-
probation.
