St. Paul daily globe., 1890-12-30

tinguished members of the medical and
legal professions, were also there in full
force TO testify to the pleaSurable fact
that st. Paul at last possesses a temple
of amusement of which any city in the
world might be proud.
The most striking feature of the audi
ence, however, was the large number of
ladies present, who, possessing the
charm of beauty, added to the splendid
spectacle. The magnificent toilets worn
by the ladies gave the theater more the
appearance OF a grand ball room. and
wherever the eye rested it saw stall
ing dress, which heightened the
effect of the gay and rich scene.
The electric lights flashed upon costly
jewels, whose brilliancy was equaled
by their fair owners eyes, silk and
satin Shimmered softly and We'd with
alabaSter skin for the mastery.
A poet might have been inspired by a
vision of delicate heads, with classical
features, standing in relief, the snowy
bosoms covered by the finest
and Softest of opera cloakS.
as the fair owners listened with keen
interest 20 the tuneful notes of the sing
ers, or during the intervals chatted with
their escorts and discussed the points of
the magnificent theater. All in all, it
was a yeritable triumph, and the OPEN
ing night of the new opera house will
be remembered among many other in
teresting events chiefly for its brilliant
audience.

The ushers of the theater are deserv
ing of great praise for the manner il
which they handled the large audience
IN a theater with which they had only
had few minutes to get acquainted
with the location of seats. Though
steady stream of ladies and gentlemen
filed for over an hour into the theater
there was not the slightest delay il
showing them to their seats after thei
coupons had been taken at the doors.
