To the return in the cast OF Mr.. William

of Hassen Bey materially strengthened
the play. as Mr.. o. b. Thayer Was enabled

creditable manner. There was also per-
ceptible improvement in the orchestra,
and in fsct musicians and singers appeared
in better accord than they did Monday
night, the result being a more I'm
ished and artistic performance. Miss

Serena, and her several selections were
heartily encored. Mr.. George Lyding
