There has been much complaint Of late
because Of failure on the part Of the natu.
raj gas companies to properly fill up and
pave their trenches. In some parts OF the
city thu weather OF the past few weeks,
combined with the poor way in which
the trenches were filled, has made q part
Of the streets almost impossible. It was
provided in the ordinances granting these
companies rights Of way and other privi-
leges that the tren0he1 we're to be re filled
in proper manner and the streets 70.
paved where necessary, Mr.. Garvln in
troduced into Council Tuesday night a

TWO FINE OPERAS.
StrAuSGs Harmony for the LadlSS-"Rrn
DIRYolon IRHt Might.

DiAVoIO" Last Night.
The raylshing melodies Of Johann
Strauss "Qussn's Lace Handkerchief"
are severe test OF the strength Of an
opera company, as we'll a. OF the talents Of
the principals. The Bennett Moulton
Company stood the test admirably Of the
matinee yesterday. The Opera House
Was filed, and considering the miserable
weather, this was the highest compliment
to the company. Misses MarcelluB and
Fox are an ideal royal pAiT, Miss MARCEL
lus as the King well supplementing the
charms Of Miss Fox % QUEEN. The other
principals in the cast were mainly satisiac'
taIy, and the chorus arose to the occasion
and showed unexpected strength. As
whole the performance showed the COM
pany to the best advantage. This opera
has seldom been done % well in Wheeling,
Last night "FrA DIavolo" was the opera
and again the weather was simply beastly
besides which there was o general teal
that the opera selected was too heavy toI
the company.
Notwithstanding the bad weather and
other hindrances, the audience was as
large as that which packed the house Mon
day night. The opera was given to the
entire satisfaction OF all, though little
stronger chorus could have been employed
TO advantage. Mr.. Ricketts, as the pic
turesQue bandit, Miss Marcellug as Lady
AlleaIh, and Miss Fox as Zerlina, increased
the favorable impression they had already
made, and the support was worthy oil
them.
This evening "Fatinitza" will be given,
and 1t is safe to say that this enjoyable
competition, not heard here for q con
siderable time past, will pack the house
Rgain.
