sort, II the experience OF the past De a
fitting criterion for the future. The
Iady is by no means a stranger to our
Nheatre-goers. She brings back num-
Der of the members OF the company she
had with her before. Miss Vokes has
style of acting peculiarly her own, and
whatever her critics may say OF her
thew all agree that hers is an eevatlng
tendency. She is still supported by
that excellent comedian, Felix Morris,
with whom we laughed before and who
is remembered kindly by all. At the
Opera House Thanksgiving this charm
ing comedianne and her company VIII
begin a three nights engagement AS
is customary with this delightful organ
ization three separate and distinct
plays will be presented each evening.
For the entertainment OF her many
Wheeling friends Miss Vokes has made
the following happy selections: Thurs

Cards" 1.-The Circus Rider" and "a
DonbJe Lesson" Saturday night the
bill Will consist of Crocodile Tears"
"My Milliner's Bill" Tin which Miss

An EnJOyably Comic Opera Sung YeSter-
day.
Jupiter" the comic opera composed
by those talented gentlemen, Harry B.
Smith and Julian Edwards, was admir-
ably presented and sung by the Digby
Bell company, at the Opera House,
Yesterday afternoon and again last
evening, to crowded houses. Both per-
formances were OF the most enjoyable
nature, and Manager Rheinstrom should
receive the thanks Of every lover OF
tuneful melodies bright costumes, good
acting and unadulterated fun, for Sc
curing such an admirable engagement
Jupiter" is the result of an admir-
able and mertorious idea. Its central
idea and chief motif is times in the pre-
Christian age OF Rome, aud yet there
are dashes OF nineteenth centuryism
which come In admirably, and which
are often overwhelmingly funny. We
have not only the time-honored step
from the sublime to the ludicrous at fire.
ouent intervals, but the transition from
the age Of fable to that OF to-day is
fully as frequent. Imagine Jupiter,
come TO earth for "a day off" getting
''iull" and being arrested by typical
Irish policeman with slugger whiskers,
attired In costume of the days Of the
Roman Empire, and being whisked off
to the lookup in patrol wagon with
the Imperial eagle. or Of an elevator
cage, with gilded wings, descending
from the clouds TO receive Jupiter for
his return to the skies, and diminu-
tive and bow-legged "coon" stepping
out and gravely enquiring (which floor.
sah?" and you have it. It's as funny as
the typical "barrel Of monkeys"
As to the music, it is good in the
main. The overture seems tri6e
trashy, and might be rewritten to ad-
vantage, but the prelude to act second
is better. Some of the vocal numbers
are very good, and the chorus singing
was much above the average of the
comic opera which frequents
Wheeling. The solo parts sung by
Miss Laura Joyce Bell and Miss Knapp
were well done, Mr.. Libby was also in
excellent voice. OF Mr.. Bell as "Jupi-
ter" and Spurious Cassius," it is sufii-
cient to say be maintained his reputa-
ton as comedian.
