ADJUSTMENTS.

On Friday evening next the Grab Bag
farce-comedy company is billed to ap-
pear at the Los Angeles theater. The
performance is highly commended
where it has been given.
wv
company OF gifted dwarfs, called the
Lilliputians, is billed to appear at the
opera house, beginning ons Tuesday, the
9TH OF July, and playing out the week.
The principals of the company are all
talented performers, though none are
over half the size of the average person.
They are assisted by spectacular effects
and thirty odd ballet girls, who are de-
scribed by the manager as the prettiest
damsels ne could hire in San Francisco.
The company, judging from their recep-
tion in New York, San Francisco and
many places between, can be safely de-
scribed as a novelty, and as deserving
of patronage. Mr.. Lehman, yesterday,
stated to the HERALD representative,
that the performances would be given
here with exactly the same effect, acces
sories and care as in San Francisco.
Wv
1t is stated the Owls are considering
the advisability of presenting Young
Mrs. Winthrop soon.
