PRocToR's OPERA HOUSE.

InoC1onS OEAhA HUME
'The Stowaway," a realistic drama, at.
tracted one of the largest audiences of the
season at Proctor's opera house last evening.
The principal novelty in the many repre-
sensations of low life in London was the
''cracking" of safe by two expert burglars.
The manner in which these two fellows went
to work with their drills, jimmies, and pow
der blower by means of dark lantern and
finally succeeded in blowing off the door of
the safe and in getting at the s'swag" was
the best piece of stage realism seen here this
season. The scene representing the yacht
was also the best thing of the kind ever put
on our local stage. The play itself is of a
highly sensational character and interested
the audience which was not too discrimina-
ting. The cast with the exception of Mr..
Slaytor, whose faulty elocution cannot be
overlooked, was good one. The play will
be repeated this afternoon and evening.
