sight," said Manager Dean yesterday
afternoon, as he pointed to the eighteen
lonesome tickets left for the evening
performance. and his words were not
without weight. as the Harris has been
packed and damned to sutfocation
every night during the week. Ihus
far the Wilbur Opera company has
proven magic which can draw dollars
from all paris of the city, and there IS
no reason why this remarkable pros
perity should not continue indefinitely,
as a bright entertainment Is given
nightly for % cents, 50 that even the
most economical need not be denied one
evenings diversion each week. In fact,
"Erninie'' has drawn like a new
chimney, and would have done
the same next week. The mana 5e-
ment, however, has decided to change
the bill weekly, and Tomorrow night
OtfenUach's lyric gem, 1.-The Grand
Duchess" will be given a good show

heard, as it has been superseded Dy the
influx of later and inferior productions.

Casino, Lillian Russell singing the tue
role. and has passed its S0oth night'
playing invariably to crowded houses.
A superior production will be given at
the Harris tonight, AMI the advance
sale insures big audience. Inc eX-

Since the last production Of the "Pair
of KIDS in ST. Paul two seasons ago
Ezra Kendall is credited with having
introduced many new odds and ends OF
