 PRocroR's OPERA HOUSE.
 "A Lucky Man," 8 new farce comedy, something on the order of Champagne and Oysters" or 'tOur Bachelors'' was pre- sented at the house yesterday. The com edy possesses all the elements of success, viz: A fair plot, several striking situa- tions and climaxes and a company in the main composed of first class artists Many men banker after the idea of being considered one of the boys and the fran tic efforts of s'Samuel Bloggins" to reach the height of his ambition in that direc- tion are unique and highly amusing and form the plot of the comedy. The per fSsmanss for 1nes oy yyesteIday plainly showed many. of the most amusing situations were spoiled in con sequence. In the character of Samuel Blaggins, MT. Louis Carpenter has a part peculiarly suited to him, and one in which he will undoubtedly attain success. Mir. William Chapman, as "Samuel Brown'' a club man, was entirely satisfactory. Of the ladies, Miss May Wilkes as Lulu, was admirable in character wholly unsuited to her and one in which she has but little opportunity to display her ability. Miss Hamilton, and Miss May Carlisle were pleasing, while the other members of the CdSG Cetl4 1OI uO oSpcClAl m0uGlOQ. W1Gl 8 little judicious pruning the comedy will undoubtedly be go.
 ''Miss McGinty," with Fay Templeton and strong company, is due Friday, and "The Stowaway" Saturday. Prominent in the cast of ''The Stowaway" is Miss Libbie Kirke, the charming wife of Manager Washburne.
