 city brought out large audience last eve ming, who witnessed brilliant production of "Prince Ram, m,or Trip to Vsnus," with Camille D'Arville in the title role. It is called a fascinating comic opera on the program, but 1t is more of a spectacular burlesque, being sbundantly provided with much agreeable music. The first act was 8 merry jingle of triviality, and served to introduce 8 number ofspscislties. In this act Miss Camille D'Arville renders one of the most enjoyable solos in the whole opera, entitled If the Sweetheart You Love is True," and sine was compelled to respond to double encore. Miss DAT vile possesses genuine beauty and grace. She wears 8 number of elegant costumes during the opera. The comic quartet in the second act, in which Miss D'Arville and Messrs. Mortyn, Marlborough and Jack Wagner sang, entitled 'As We Peep at the Earth from the Sky," was greeted with a storm of applause, which was responded to and triple encore en- made by William Pruett as Mars and the extellent manner in which he rendered the song q Am the God of Mars," was de- serving of the encore 1t received. Then there w1s c pretty dance under beautiful green and yellow lights, In which three pretty children took part, including that beautiful little creature, Ls Regalonoita. Mr. Mortyn's new version of old fairy tales was extremely funny.
 The scenery was also excellent and in cluded two beautiful drops illustrative of the "Transit of Venus'' and "Venus and Mars" The performance will be repeated this afternoon and evening and it should bs greeted by large audience at each per formanoe, as ths production is 8 most ex- cellent one and worthy of crowded houses To-day, also, at each performance Miss D'Arville will sing her new song, which has been specially written for her, "I Love, Madly Adore"
