The morning call., 1892-11-19

0nly Wen sung put ali That could have pos
sibly BEEN expected in Characterization was
done 10 help out the motif of the music.
Better acting among amateurs has seldom
been witnessed, and the absence of stage
fright was rs pleasant as it was surprising.
Miss lvina Heuer Is an old favorite in
San Francisco, but her grace and talent
won her fresh laurels as beautiful Madg-.
Miss Maude l.. Berry 10 no stranger in San
Francisco or Fresno society, but this was
her first important appearance In public
since her return from the Boston Con-
servatory. Her rich voice and pleasing
phrasing were generally applauded. In the
widows Song" she made an instantaneous
nit.
Mrs. Charles j. Dickman, who has so
often delighted society, was never more
attractive than as the Countess, and Miss
Freda Sylvester, although comparatively
new to the boards, might have been a
veteran, SO thoroughly did she grasp and
carry out the character of Nina, the coquet-
fish maid
Mr.. A. NJ. Thornton was comical-ver y
without descending to burlesQue; Mr.. Gades-
den distinguished himself by his capital
voice and bearing in all situations, while
MIR. Victor Carroll gained many friends
among both sexes by his sympathetic pre-
sentatioD of Count Hugo.
Mr.. Sol Walter deserves special word FOR
his Characterization of Squeaky, not to men
ton the peculiarly artistic scenery and cos
TUNES, which lent so much to the opera. In
the former he was assisted by w. L. Porter.
The second scene. with the billiard table in
the background, was considered o happy
innovation.
Mr.. Fred Urban acted as stage manager
and everything went off tremendously un-
der his dictatorship.
