The opera Of "Martha" will be presented
by Manager Fort at Albaugh's next week
as it has never been given here before. Mr..
Fort has engaged the well-kpown contralto
of the Milan Opera Company, Miss Carrie
Morse, who will take the part of Ndnch
and Slgnor Montegrifro, the tenor Of the
Abbott Opera Company, who will sing
LioaeFs role. Mr.. William +, Pruette, the
baritone of the Abbott Company, whose
voice has added so much to the perform
ances of the Summer Opera Company, will
he PluBkeH. The engagement of these
three artists has been at considerable ex-
pense, but the management feel that the
public will appreciate their efforts to give
standard English opera creditably at low
prices. Miss Winston will appear as Mlriha,
iu which she has been very successful, and
Messrs. Allen and Hogan will be Sir Stris-
tran and the Sheriff, respectively.
