There was large audience at the
opera-house last night to witness
Boccaccio as presented by the Marie
Greenwood Comic Opera Company.
The audience was highly entertained
The acting and singing were good,
and frequent encores attested the APP
probation of the audience. This
company will likely appear here
again in April.
During the performance almost a
panic was created in the audience,
The SCOT in the chimney burned out
and the sparks falling past the win
dOws were seen by the occupants Of
extreme right wing of the gallery
A dozen or more made rush for the
doors. This startled the audience be.

seats and started for the door, A
general rush was iminent, when one
or more cool headed gentlemen as
sured the audience that there was nc
danger, that the sparks were from

sumo their seats. In a very short
while quiet was restored and the
play resumed.

After last nights experience at
Elders opera-house, when but for the
eoolness OF few parties the lives and
limbs of a large number of people
in this commonly would have been
imperiled, it is time 10 bring the at
tention o, the city fathers to the laws
of the State relating to buildings
used for public entertainments. The
action OF 1879 applying to all corpora
tions is as follows:
1st. 1t is made the duty of the
corporate authorities to examine any
building ustd for public entertain
ments and see that they are provided
with all the necessary safeguards
against accident by fire, or panic,
such as modes of exit, ETC., also to
have appliances for the prompt ex-
tinguishment of fire.
Second section requires that the
authorities shall have all plans OF
building used for such purposes first
submitted to them for inspection be-
fore permit to build is granted.
Fourth section requires that the
authorities where the law has not
been fully complied with TO revoke
the license of such house, and not
permit any entertainment in said
house until the law has been fully
complied with.
Now the construction of the opera
house is 50 palpably faulty, when you
apply the law to it, that the city
should see that it is remedied. Only
