MUSIC AND THE DRAMA.
Emma Juch Grand Opera.

Infantry Hall held one of the most Sc
leci of audiences last evening. The Emma
Juch Grand Opera Company received a warm
welcome and when its disadvantages are con-
sidered the presentation must have had the
hearty approval of all who saw it. The big
stage was fitted up hastily for the change Of
bill and the utmost efforts OF the stage mana-
ger did not make things go with perfect
smoothness.
Emma Juch and Albert Guile as Marguerite
and Faust and Franz Netta as MephistophelCs
were called before the curtain at the close Of
the first part.
After this there was "A long wait. The stage
carpenter attracted great attention. Scarcely
anyone left for every body was anxious to hear
the "Cavalleria Rusticana" sung and they
were we'll satisfied with il when at last the
curtain rose on a scene in a Sicilian town, with
gaily dressed peasant girls and men.
The leading characters include Turiddu,
who. on returning from the army, finds his
promised wife married to Alto and courts and
betrays SantuZga and is challenged and killed
by Alto.
Miss Juch and Mons. Guile were of course
the central attractions in the parts of Turid-
du and Santuzza, and the powerful emotions
of the characters were fully sustained by
them. William Martens as Alto and Ger
trude May Stein as Lucia also won applause.
