Huntington as Paul Jones.
The Metropolitan opera house seems
to have revived in st. Paul all the love
of music and drama which has lain dor
mant for so long. 1t would be difficult
| to imagine more brilliant audiences than
/ have, for example, turned out this week,
and last nights aSsemblage reached
the climax. 1t was as fine a
social portraiture of st. Paul
as the most critical social votary could
| imagine. Agnes Huntington was the
| drawing card, and stronger one could
| not be played before st. Paul just now.
| The opera mattered but little-it was
| Agnes Huntington the people wanted to
see and hear. paul JONES'
has been already thoroughly de-
scribed in the GLOBE, and its
rendition fully reviewed. when
| given at Minneapolis. 1t is an opera
comique of the first style, and about the
only fault is that it scarcely gives Miss
Huntington's voice full scope. The
| part suits her admirably, but she seems
above and beyond it. The supporting
company is strong and even and the play
delightful. Paul Jones" will run for a
| week.
