engagement bids fair to be one of the finest of
the season. Hilarity and delight will certainly
reign at the opera-house next week. Both these
pieces are known here, although they have both
undergone some changes since their former pre-

appreciated here from the fact that they are
thoroughly American. Their subjects are Amer
lean, the main characters are American, and the
dialogue is typically American. The authors in
each instance have been particularly fortunate
in providing plays 80 specially typical OF the
