 THE 1oSroNIANs. |.


 The Bostonians made their first appearance l here this season before an immense audience 1 at the Hyperion theater last evening. Oscar Wells new opera, entitled "Suzeste," was thoroughly enjoyed, as wa. evidenced by the frequent ensores. "Suzette" is not a grand l opera, but 1t is . charming ono with . very funny plot and some very pretty catchy music. It is essentially . solo opera, the chorus having very little to do. All the music, if not striking, is at least original evening and that of "Nadjy" last week was very noticeable. Last Friday evening the audience paid no attention to the music, but accorded applause to the topical songs and the dialogue, both of which at times sp- prosched very near to vulgarity, if they did not cross the line. Last evening frequent and well deserved applause followed the ale most faultless rendition of music which, If of. a light character, was altogether very was of the innocent kind and was, for that reason. not the less amusing. The principal work was done by Miss Marie Stone, Miss Bartlett-Davis and MT. MacDonald. All of these favorite ar. tists were in excellent voice and acquitted Miss Stone found part somewhat similar to ''Serpolette" in the "Chimss of Normandy" and therefore ars perfectly suited to her. Miss Davis rich contralto voice had many opportunities and this excellent vocalist never appeared to better advantage. MT. Mcdonald was as handsome as ever and in excellent . voice n,ss as .,s a.1si: s,,1: l leadership of MT. .Studley, were all that could | be desired. In short, 1t was . thoroughly honest and meritorious entertainment. This afternoon will be devoted to Ofenbaeh's ssPoachers," a charming three-aot opera that | has received much favorable comment in the hands of this excellent company. In the cast Juliette Corden, Carlotta Aaconda, Fl. o. and George Buckingham are announced. In the evening "Pygmalion and Galatea," :" 1 Gilbert's noted work set to Am- broise Thomas' delightful music, will have its first presentation In this oity. The western critics have been most enthusiastio over this production, and pro- nounce it by far the strongest opera in the 1 Bartlett Davis, Carlotta Maconda, Josephine Bartlett, Tom Karl, n. O. Barnabee, ". H. MacDonald and Eugene Cowles are in tho 1 east, and certainly if names are any criterion, 1 the production will be most complete and l thoroughly artistic. The comedy clement ts also very strong feature ot the psrfor- | nance.
