ADJUSTMENTS.
Mr.. Aronson's Casino Company Pro-
duces "Nadiy."

Mr. AronSon CaSino company Fro
duces "Nadjy."
The New York Casino Company pro-
duced Nddjy at the Grand last night. 1t
was the first production of this opera in
Los Angeles, and the house was filled
with very appreciative audience, drawn
by the novelty OF the opera and the ex-
cellence Of the production. The Err
minie of the previous evening had given
the people reason to expect perfect
production of Nddjy, and the expecta-
ton was fulfilled. The scenes were all
from the Casino, and were as beautiful
as art could make them. The costum-
ing was perfect too.
The opera has more OF the comic vein
than Ern,inie, where the fun nearly all
centers in the persons of the two thieves.
The music OF Nadjy is melodiOus and
very lovely. 1t is not so catching" as
in Erninie, but is better. Some of the
duets and other combinations are de-
lightful. DeLange and Graham made
up for the absence of the lighter quality
of the music by the introduction OF some
of their topical songs. Mr.. DeLange got
in some other extraneous business which
may do for once in way, but which,
perhaps. would pail on the taste of the
cultured if repeated too often.
Miss Lamont as ''Etelka' is simply
bewitching in loveliness, and Miss
Emma Hanley as "Nadjy" made great
hit. She dances well as well as sings
well, and she is beauty and grace COM
bined. The other ladies OF the company
were grouped into all sorts Of beautiful
combinations with most telling effect.
Nddjy will be repeated tonight.
At the Los Angeles.
The Waits Of New York, with Miss En-
NETT as "the Waif," continues to do a
very satisfactory business. 1t will con-
tinue all this week.
At this house OH Sunday night Lew
Johnson's colored minstrels will appear.
The San Francisco Chronicle says OF these
people: LEV Johnson's famous colored
minstrels give bright, interesting per-
formance. The singers and the come
dians are particularly good"
'The Great Metropolis
At the Grand next week will appear
Rial & Morris company in The Greet
Metropolis. The playis Clay NJ. Green's
latest effort in the dramatic line. The
play comes here from the Grand opera
house, San Francisco, where it has been
very successful, as it has been in New
York also.
