the Opera House last night to witness
'Tennyson's Dream of Fair Women"
and other striking and beautiful tab
leauX, The program was quite extern
sive and, with the exception OF little
girl being very nearly wound up III
the curtain which however, did not
prove serious, everything went of
smoothly, the beautiful living statues
being perfect in pose and effect.
The first tablcau, Pas Dcs Bcrgeras,
which, owing to having misplaced our
French lexicon we are unable TO trans
late, was a beautiful dance in costume
by four young ladies' Misses Jeariea,
Yates, Sergeant and liauenstcin,
Tablcau Faith, Hope and Charity
was represented by three beautiful
Young ladies in Misses Cora
Sessions, Campbell and Bcachtcl,
Miss Pearl Allen was next intro
duced TO The audience. aud in a fail,
mCiodious soprano, sang Carl Hellor's
Nightingale Song, which was magnif.
~icenily rendered, showing Miss Pearl
to be clearly Il mistress OF her art. She
next sang The Vow, By Meyer Hell
mund, which was so full Of sweet pa.
thos the audience listened with breath
less appreciation until its conclusion
then all joined in heart, applause to
Macon's accomplished musician.
Cupid's Court represented" by nine
little mailcn5 grouped around Cupid,
who, bow and arrow in hand, stood
upon his throne ready TO cast his dart
into some Wnsuspecting heart. The
scene wGs indeed pretty and very et-
fcCtiye.
The next tablcau pictured ,ha, much
abused martyr, Joan Of Arc, rcprcsen'
ted by Miss Dora Sessions, who dis
played fortitude rivalllng that Of the
original Joan, for she stood undannt-
cd while q fearful smoke from the
burning stake filed her eyes and
nostrils. Smoke emanating from these
colorcd lights is very pungent and
Miss Sessions deserves credit fOr7 The
-brayes. manner in which she bore her
TEMPORARY martyrdon.
The Hcxt tableauX represented five
pictures, as follows: Goodbye, Miss
Lucle Sessions, Ophelia, Miss Nell
Beachtel, "A BGggar Maid, Miss Ada
Sessions, JOY, Miss Eva Kate Sargent,
Sorrow, Miss Elm Doty. They we're
very pretty indeed. Miss Doty's poF-
trayal OF Sorrow, resembling Il Span
ish Scnorita, was extremely good,
showing careful study.
Miss Gerald, a beautiful Young lacy
from West Point, next came before the
audience and with Il grace and case
which proclaimed perfect confidence,
sang the delightful song by bcvigran:,
entitled The Flower Girl. Miss Gerald
was appInudcd to the echo and reap
pearcd, singing another piece not on
the programme. We thank our sister
city for lending us SO sweet Il Ginger
and withal 20 bright. beautiful and &C.
complishcd 4 young lady.
The next representation was Titanic,
portrayed by Miss Neil Dcachtcl who
looked charming in reposc.
Tcunrsons Dream Of Fair Women
was next on the programme and il he
could have been present he would, M
doubt, have admitted that the living
flesh and blood lovliucss which APP
pearcd before an a%ppreciaiive audi
enco last night in representation o! hi,
poem, exceeded by far his widest
dreams, for the scene was indeed pot
try 10 the eye.
