Ms, AbbOtts dress, where she appeared
as tLe Queen. WAS the occasion OF a
murmur OF admiration throughout the
theater. A. Rose she was most happy.
She sang tnerOl with notable fcryeucy,

here. The Orchestration leaves
nothing to be desired. 1t was
superb. The bright and rch
cOstumIng of the opera caused
the worn out stock scenery OF this
theater to loom up III horrible con-

with the following admirable cast:

The company now performing at
| RedmOnd's give an entertainment that
has the rare flavor of old-time min
strelsy. There Is no attempt at elabOr-
alton IN the way OF settings, but the
company is composed of capable peO-
| pie, all of whom contribute something
| creditable. The singing in the first
/
| the humorlsms offered by Messrs.
/ SymOnds, Armstrong, Manning and
| Hughes were fresh and spicy. In the
/ OhO are many refreshing acts, consist
/ ing OF banjo playing by Joe Hunt,
some good singing by a trio, and an ex-
cellent musical act by Messrs. Waller
and Forest. The burlesque. in which
was introduced the trick mule, Jasper,
was very funny, and provoked great
merrlment. Every feature OF this show
is enjoyable and worthy of generous
patronage. There Will be matinee to-
day.

formance at RedmOnd's last evening to
