in the affirmative, giving notice OF a
motion to reconsider, and the resolution
to elect Mr.. Sweet passed, s TO 5. The
matter will come up again on Wednesday
evening, when the Council meets again.
The reason given for the opposition to

canvass the local field, and overlooked
Woonsocket men OF capability and ex-
perience.

Lothrop's Grand Opera Rouse.
The attraction this week at this pretty
theatre is the beautiful Irish drama In
four acts entitled "Kathleen Mavourneeu
or st. Patrick's Eve" This is a special
production and the star Is the talented
young actress, Miss Katherine Rober, sup
ported by Lothrop's reorganized stock
company.
Fairman's orchestra render appropriate
music and the first number, the overture,
is ECHOES from Ireland" followed by a
xylophone solo by George o. Cameron,
Sounds from Erin" and the "Irish
Patrol" Everything is suggestive OF the
Emerald Isle and the drama Is one OF the
best ever produced here. 1t deals with
real Irish life and although 1t looks dark
for pretty Kathleen O'Connor, the
farmers daughter, in the first act, the
horizon grows brighter and the whole
AFFAIR winds up In an exciting rollicking
shillalah dance, introducing the whole
company. Besides Miss Rober the COM

Keith's Opera House.
"Monte Carlo" was greeted with a large
audience at Keith's Opera House last
evening. The principal figure Is the well
known minstrel George Wilson, and he
Is ably assisted by the three German
brothers, also popular and successful on
the minstrel stage for nun Der OF years.
George Wilson, as such, is supposed to
be stranded with his minstrel company
In the vicinity OF the famous resort of
Monte Carlo. He gives n musicale at the
instance OF a former American friend,
and incidentally "breaks the bank" at the
Casino, thus enabling the company to
take passage for home. The dances in
troduced by George and John and the
Midway dance by the three brothers.
George, John and James German, form
important features OF the performance.

"ROSE DALE.

The largest audience that has for months
assembled in the Augusta Opera house to
witness theatrical performance was assem-
bled there last evening to enjoy the fine pre-
sen tation of" Rosedale "by the Boston Grand
Opera House Co. There was literally
"standing room only" Waterville, Halo
we'll and Gardiner were all well represented
by good sized contingents. The perform
ance was throughout a most artistic one.
The company is composed of very strong
PLAYERS, and the various parts were all
cleverly taken.
Miss Annie Clark was given a royal re-
ception and her fine work showed that she
had lost none of the dramatic skill that, as
a member of the Boston Museum Company,
won her such an abiding place in the hearts
of the theatre going public of that city. 1t
is difficult in cast so well
balanced throughout to make individual
mention, but the fine work of Joseph Ho-
worth as Elliott Gray and Frank j. Keenan,
as Miles McKenna will not soon be forgot
ten. Miss Isabella Evesson did some fin
ished acting as Rose Leigh and her love
scene with Elliott Gray in the fourth act
was as clever piece of work
as has ever been seen in this city. There
was no staginess anywhere in the perform
ance. Everything was we'll done. Nothing
was overdone. Mr.. William Mestayer as
Burberry Kob was one of the favorites OF
the evening, and contributed materially
to its merriment. Miss Kate Ryan took
the role of Tabisha Stork most
admirably. Mark Price was an excellent
Col. Cavandish May and little Olive Smith
won all hearts by her charming impersona-
ton of Arthur May. The play is one
Astounding in opportunities for fine drs-
matte effect, all of which were fully i'm
proved last evening. Should this fine COM
pany visit our city again it may be assured
of a warm welcome.

The ST. John Progress has the following
complimentary notice of one of our well
known Augusta citizens:
Price Weber finished his season on New
Years night. He had bumper houses, and
the praise | have heard for the perform
ances by great many others only strength
ems my own opinion, which Is, that Weber
gives the best value for the money of any
company that comfs here.
Here is a true incident which has never
yet appeared in print and which shows
Webber's nature a great deal better than
any words can:
When the company was playing in North
Sydney, short time ago. the play OF
Jessie Brown" was performed. Weber
was at the wing waiting for his cue to
70 on, when gun was discharged by one
of the company close to where he was
standing, the powder blackening the front
of his red turban, the whole charge OF
loaded cartridge just passing over his head
and lodging in the plastering of the wall
behind, tearing hole as large as man
two fists. Webber's self control never de-
serted him, although he was stunned by the
noise of the explosion; he went on calmly
with his part, and the company never knew
until the curtain went down that the gun
was loaded, for he kept that knowledge t.
himself. He did not want the incident
spoken of in the papers at the time, and
probably does not now. However, learned
of this incident from one of the company
and could not forbear speaking Of it, Al
showing the nature of the man.

Signora Romani, prima donna of the

who are to give two nights of grand opera

January 18th and 10Th, has what is known
as a phenomenal voice. She is the pos
SCISSOR of that wonderful faculty known in
music as perfect pitch. while the range and
sweetness of her voice is remarkable and
world celebrated. Augusta opera goers
have rare treat in store for them in listen
