OPERA TLAUREL HILL.
An Excellent Prescntat ion of tn
bohemian Girl" Last Evening.

An Excellent Prcscntat ion Of the
bohemian Girl" Last Evening.
Notwithstanding the threatening
weather last evening" the season of sum
mer opera at Laurel Hill park opened
auspiciously. A good sized audience as
sembled in the Pavilion theater, and to
say that the listeners were delighted
with the excellent rendition of the "Bo-
hemian Girl' given is to express 1t mild
ly. The various numbers Of the work
were encored throughout the entire
presentation. Miss Carlotta Gilman as
Airline made decided hit from start.
Miss Gilman is a beautiful woman; Il
fine actress, and possesses an excellent
voice as well. Her Interpretation of the
part was artistic and at once established
her reputation with Scranton amuse-
ment seekers.
Miss Alice Carle made an excellent
impression in the character OF the
Gypsy Queen. Miss Carle possesses a
phenomenal contraltO voice, which filled
the large hall. In the principal con-
tralto solo. in the second act, Miss Carle
received three recalls from the enthusi-
astic audience.
Henry Scarborough. the well-known
tenor, was excellent and probably SUI
perior to any rendition of the part that
has been given in this city in many
years. Nat b. Canton, the San Fran
cisco comedian. gave an up-to-date rep
resentation of "Devilshoof, and the 9TH
er characters by Miss Marie Warren, j.
X. Adams and w. II. Allen We're well
interpreted. A pleasing feature, also.
was the dances introduced by Miss
Maud Harrison in the first and second
acts.
The costumes We're elaborate and
handsome and the well-drilled chorus
gave ample evidence of Professor Rich
ard Lindsay's skill as conductor. The
opera was given with scarcely a cut
from the original score, and was with
out doubt the finest presentation of the
Bohemian Girl' ever given in Scran-
ton at popular prices.
Manager Laine Is to be congratulated
upon securing such an excellent COM
pany. The entertainment was a de-
lightful surprise to the most sangune
friends OF the operate enterprise. The
success Of summer opera at Laurel Hill
Is assured. The opera will be given ev-
cry evening this week. and on Monday
next "Amorita'' will be presented.
