TheOp era Company.

There was a accd sized audience at
the Opera House last evening to wit
ness the opening performance of the
New York Standard Opera Company,
who commenced their engagement with
the musical, witty aud amusing
Mascotte." Miss Bertha Creighton
gave a very acceptable rendition Of
Bettina, although she assumed the part
in the unexpected absence of the lead
ing lady at few hours notice. Prince
Lorenzo was ably portrayed by Mr.
Thomas Martin, and all the other char
acters were we'll sustained.
Tho chorus is not strong, but not
withstanding this fact, done some very
excellent work. The applause was
frequent and spontaneous,s and was we'll
earned by the Ineritorious singing and
dramatic action of the principals. IN
tho second act, Mile Alice Escalana
gave vocal selection in such an aocep-
table manner that repetition was
demanded. Miss Alice Raymond then
appeared with her corIet, and was re-
ceiyed with round after round of APP
plause. She is q charming young lady,
with jet black eyes, an exceedingly
modest demeaupr, and o emile that won
the hearts of hsr. audience before she
sounded note. During the time che
was giving her wonderful performance
she held the und ivided attention of all
present, and when she closed tho house
fairly trembled with the applause.
..She came out and bowed her acknowl'
dgment of the compliment, but that
was rot sufficient, and again she was
called out. Three times was she obi-
lged to repeat the performance, and a'
the close the applause was deafning'
Miss Raymond can feel proud OF mel
reception Last evening, as 1t was OF
nature that Is only accorded by q Will
mington audiencs to those who richiy
deserve 1t. Miss Emma II. Sternel
directed the music and the stage, uir
addition To leading the orchestra, and
the success of the entire performance IL
due In n great measure to her " onderful
abilities. :" Pinafore" will be given this
evening, and the reputation Of the
company Is so we'll established oy ias'

for $500, 900 against Edwin Lee Brown,
and one for $500. 600 against the Inter

Ocean was based on fourteen libellous
charges, in which Mayor Harrison g
private character was attacked during

other suits were based upon speech by
Mr.. Brown, published in the Inter.
Ocean, in which the speaker said that
the Mayor WAS consort of thieves and
ballot box suffers, or words to tha,
effect.
