The Wallacks gave a very successful.
entertainment yesterday evening. Mrs.
Wallack. on her appearance as "Lisette"
in the 'Swjss Cottage, was greeted with
hearty applause and a shower OF bouquets.
In that piece Mr.. Wallack as the pea
SAINT Nate, and Mr.. Rider as Corporal May,
also Showed to advantage, and the whole
piece went off with a good deal of spirit.
The singing in the intermediate part was
very good, and Box and Cox, to conclude,
created a great deal of amusement. On
the fall of the curtain Mrs. Wallack was
called by the audience, and in her usual
happy and clever manner sang her much
appreciated song "Here stands a young girl
aoho wants a SWeetheart." There is another
performance on Monday evening for Mr..
WalIack's ''beneft", which will be. it is
said, the last but ole in ChriStiansted.
The Programme for Monday includes
