AMUSEMENTs.

ALsArGH's OPERA HoUsE-A large audience en-
loyed the performance OF "Belman, by the McCaun
opera Company, at Abaugh's last night De Wolf
Hopper, Laura Joyce-Bel, Annie Myers and Marion
Manoa were cordially recognized as they appeared

lions OF striking numbers and the recalls were
numerous. "Bellman" is the nghtest work

not contain the rich comedy OF either

celence OF these operas sim the music possesses
the unmlstakable characteristics OF Won suppe,

masterful swing which Won Suppe always attains

work OF artistic merit. The finale to the second
act Is as effective piece of concerted music as
mirably given last night: In this act
also the Lapland duet by Miss Manola and
preS very graceful and Miss s. annie ~ M Myers
peated. In the first act De Wolf Hopper has an
ODD Kiss song which went well, and the duet OF the
absurd thing, convulsed the house The bear

wife did some good comedy work: Hopper's

As with all McCaun ventures, the opera was well

NATIONAL THEATER--Mr. Thos. W. Keene APP
peared before an audience OF large proportions at
this house last night after an absence from Wash
ington OF several seasons He was welcomed with
cordially by numerous friends and during the
evening was recalled repeatedly by boisterous ap-
plause. "Richelieu" was the play he appeared In
and he gave an representation OF the crafty
and fndomitable old cardinal that commanded
respect IL not great admiration. The play Is full
OF passages that appeal strongly to the tmagfna-
ton and the sympathies and any actor OF intellf-
gence and fair elOcutl0nary attachments Is sure TO
win fair share OF favor In the leading role. MI.
keene sustained the role with evenneSS through
out, though he hes1tated for a word few times,
due, probably, to insufficient rehearsals. The
well-known great scenes he gave with no lack OF
force or dramatic gesture, and his company was
readily responsive 10 his mimic passion. His sup
port was good. This evening Mr.. Keene Will ap-
pear In Orchard ILL.,
The Boston SYMPHONY ORCHESTRA CONCERTS at
Congregational church Thursday afternoon and
Friday evening will be fitting close to an ex-

demand for seats for the two concerts at Elis and
IL is thought that they will prove successful
financially, as they are sure to be musically.

OUR regular correspondent over at
the Salmon river district sends some
very important news regarding the
new and rich strikes in the very CEN
ire OF. the district. Prospecting COM
menced on the first of the month,
much earlier than was expected and
new finds are constantly being made.
From present indications it is safe to
say that the new mining field will be
the most lively one in the northwest
this summer. Fortunes will be made
in the camp, and an immense crowd
OF people will be gathered together in
the district before the season is over.

BEFORE The meeting of the Demo-
cratic rational committee to select
time and place for holding the con-
vention one OF the speakers had the
effrontery to liken Cleveland unto
Stephen A. Douglas, one of the bright
est statesmen the Democratic party
ever produced, and this comparison is
like comparing a thoroughbred to =
mongrel. Douglas was an intellectual
giant, an Incompatible debater, .
brilliant statesman, and loyal to the
chore. The Democratic party long
since ceased producing such men.
