'HURRAH FOR GILLEN :
Arnllspnentk.

A delighted audience witnessed the first
performance of "The Mascotte" by the Dora
Wiley Opera Company last evening, 1t was
really refreshing to witness the pleasing
rendering of this beautiful opera. The Bet
tina of Miss Wiley deserved the many plau.
dts it gained, and her singing of "Home,
Sweet Home" brought down the house.
Richard Golden, as Lorenzo, was inimitable,
and his songs, his dancing and his recita-
tons kept the audience in a continued strain
{ laughter and Mr.. Dan Young was exces-
sively funny. Both gentlemen exerted them
selves to the utmost, and their efforts were
crowned with success. The costumes were
the finest ever seen in this city. Taking all
in all, it is seldom that "The Mascotte" is
80 well rendered as it was last evening. To.
night the company will present "Olivette, y
and at the matinee 1.-The Mikado.' Although
the prices of admission are only 10 and Is
cents, it is no cheap company, and no one
should miss the treat in store.
All Of next week, commencing on Mon
day, Oct. 18th, the George Kendall Dramatic
Company will occupy the Opera House in a
repertoire of comedies, presenting on Mon
day evening "Our Bachelors" to be followed
throughout the week with change Of play
nightly. The company has been greatly
strengthened since it last appeared here,
carrying brass band and orchestra, and all
new scenery. The prices Of admission are
Is and % cents. Reserved seats no higher.
