Boston's Season Of Grand Opera
Starts Most Auspiciously.

III the fifty devotees of Grand Opera
who went TO Boston last evening TO hear
Les HugeEots, will speak of the presenta-
lion of the opera in the terms of praise
which il so fully deserved, the number OF
our local musical public who will thereby
be induced TO take advantage of the opper-
tunities now afforded at Mechanics Hall,
will easily fiji a special train. Rarely, IL
ever in the history of New England music
has such a combination of artists, orches-
ira and repertoire been heard. The stage
setting, the arrangement OF the hall and
its acoustic properties enhance the beauty
of the vocal parts and make an ensemble
which only personal visit can appreciate.
The magnificently somber opera OF
Meyerbeer was presented last evening by
cast in which one could but feel that
each solo part had been written expressly
for the voice of the singer rather than that
the singers were selected for their parts.
Albain has so literally created the part OF
Valentino anew that the tones OF her mar
yelously symmetrical voice fairly inspired
the audience But we have heard Aibani
before and are wont to expect from her
that perfection and eveness of quality
which has made her so almost peerless
place among singers.
The deepest interest however OF the
evening, ceutered in the DE ResZke Broth
ers, and those who had anticipated much.
were fully satisfied. IL is not necessary TO
criticise them separately. III the human
voice could be described rs stupendous that
would be the proper term TO use OF these
men. The tenor robusto of the one more
than rivals Campanini ; it surpasses IL and
recalls the days when Bricnoli stood alone,
and the bass OF the other surpassed any
thing ever heard here.
OF Parogli, the contralto, and Lassalle,
the baritone, and Pettigianini the
soprano, only words of praise could be
said. To the ordinary mind such words
of almost unconditional praise would
seem meaningless, but the words are
nevertheless just and entirely deserved.
Lack of space hinders that extended de
scription which the occasion deserves, but
its actnal merit wins the success that IL
deserves The management Of the season
of grand opera in Boston should be un-
precedentedly successful during the next
two weeks.

The Westminster.

Peck's Bad Boy. as bad as ever, was at
the Westminster Theatre yesterday after
noon and evening, and though the play
sons, it is evident from the large crowds
at both performances that time had not
effected it's popularity. IL was as funny
and spicy as ever, and extremely well
staged, the entire caste being exceptionally
good. Master George Cohan, as the Bad
Boy, was much at home, playing tricks on
the Dutchman and every body else. Little
Josie Cohan, in her dancing and acting,
was of the most appreciable order. The
remainder of the caste in specialties were
deserving of no small praise.

"Mr. Wilkinson's Widows" is the title
Of comedy farce that has received favor
able and flattering notices from the press
of the metropolis. and in consequence, the
people of this city who patronize the
Providence Opera House expected 20 wit
ness first-class play when they crowded
the theatcr last night. Their expectations
were realized. 1t is farce-comedy that
deserves all that has been written com
mandatory of il, and deserves the support
of theater goers. It's laugh-producer all
the time-a veritable geyser that keeps
quietly bubbling without any apparent de-
sire to rush. Its characters are natural,
its situations are ludicrous and its dia-
logue sparkling. Mr.. Wilkinson was
quiet-enough looking old codger, if the
pictures displayed last night were truth
ful, but he was unfortunate enough TO
think il necessary to have wife in Lon
don and another in Edinburgh. lie kept
them in good style and when he died they
were both well provided for, but ignorant
of the existence OF each other. One wife
was flint the other was not. After
short time both women married again,
but they each had portrait of
the late lamented conspicuously dis
played in their new homes. Curl
ously enough they moved into the same
apartment house in the suburb of London
and in course of time became acquainted.
Then up pops Major Mallory who at one
widows. The particular one that he was
interested in married Henry L. Dickerson,
but Mallory happens 10 meet Percival
Perrin who married the other, and in con-
fidence tells him he is about TO seek out
his old charmer. Mrs. Wilkinson and
marry her. He also tells all about the fun
they had fooling old Wilkinson. Natur-
sharp eye on his wife and trys to keep
them from meeting. But Mallory does
meet his old flame. Mrs. Dickerson and
he returns TO Perrin TO tell him Of the fact.
Mrs. Perrin is away and her husband
ihinks she is the guilty one. The five
principals meet at a musical given by Mrs.
Dickerson and things get Strengthened out
after a while. The women compare notes
and find that old Wilkinson married them
the same year. month, dag and hour at
places far removed from each other, aud
the curtain falls while the ex-widows are
trving TO find out how he did il. We print
the cast in full. All the actors are capable
and they present an entertainment that is
seldom excelled in this city.

Show Why an Election Has Not
Been Ordered.
The readers of The News are famil-
lar with the differences that arose in
Bronwood some months ago over the
municipal election.
Mr.. A. j. Kenney contested the cleo
ton of Mr.. r. l. Ellison as councilman,
and at hearing before Judge Query
the court decided that neither was emit
tied to a seat in the legislative body of
Bronwood and declared a vacancy.
Since then Mayor Hill and the remain
ing members of the council have refused
to order an election to fill the vacancy,
and a mandamus was issued requiring
Mayor Hill to appear before Judge Guer-
ny last Wednesday and show cause why
an election had not been ordered.
Mayor Hill appeared with counsel and
showed to the court that the charter of
Bronwood provided that elections shall
be ordered by the council and not by
the mayor.
On Friday the matter will again come
up before Judge Query, and the coun-
ell of BrOnwood will then be required to
show why an election has not been or
dered
