GRAND OPERA HOUSE.
A large audience greeted Joseph j. Dow
ling and Sadie Hassan in their entertaining
play ''The Red Spider" last night. Dow
ling as the Red Spider and Hassan as
Roxy, with her musical specialties, proved
great favorites with the audience. Messrs.
Allen, Bloom and Shattuc were well re-
ceived and the interesting equine actors,
Carlos and Don Caesar, admirably sus-
tanned their part. ''The Red Spider" will
be repeated this evening and tomorrow
"Nobody's Claim" will be given, both
afternoon and evening.
Hardie and Won Leer come on the last
half of the week, with a special matinee on
Thanksgiving day.

fully adequate to its presentation, but the
lack of rehearsal was plainly evident last
night. Several of the actors were fa1
from being up in their lines, and the con-
seqent hitch spoiled what would otherwise
have been very enjoyable entertainment.
| The only two members of the cast who were
thoroughly conversant with their parts
were G. w. Couldock and Miss Cora Edsal
| The work of these two artists was I'M
usually fine and they well merited the ap

| upon them.
