A Clue to the Robbers.

Denver, Col, Nov. 12.-It is now be- leved the express robbers who so coolly secured 900 last night from the Wells Fargo agent at Colorado Springs are A. J. Gray, alias Sam Wells and J. E. Stu-' art, alias Barr, two noted crooks, who broke jail in Colorado Springs last month. R. S. Montgomery, another crook, was in jail at the time, and because he was not taken into the confidence of the jail breakers he sought the express company here and offered to reveal the hiding place of the men, whom he then stated were planning to rob the company. The officials here declined to listen to him then and now they are eagerly seeking for Montgomery, who has disappeared

GRAU'S OPERA COMPANY.
Tar and Tartar" Will Be Presented Tonight
 at 0'Brien's

Graus coming is an event for music lovers this week, and one that will un- doubtedly fill the theater every night Standing room should be scarce and ev- cry available seat at every performance should be occupied. It is a great show, and at popular prices-25, 95, 50 and 75 cents. It is equal to any $1.5o organiza- tion that has ever visited the south
 If the people want music, if they want attractions, then they certainly will turn out this week. Seats are now being re- served for the entire engagement.
 Graus Opera company commence their engagement tonight in a grand produc- ton of Tar and Tartar" The Press of savannah, where the company played last week to the largest business ever known in the history of that house, says:
 "The audience at the theater last night fell in love with Miss Adelaide Randall. They admired Libby and Frear They cqmplimented Miss Arnold, and renewed their good will for Waldo. Mr. Grau has strong company and the operas are being put on well. Miss Randall has been favorite for long time in Savan- nah. She is sweet singer and grace ful actress. She is one of those ladies who elevate her profession, and in whom her compatriots place confidence and re- gard. She wins the sympathy of her audience as she appears on the stage. and holds it throughout the performance
 ''The work of MT. Frear last night was especially pleasing. He is comedian of high merit. He has an excellent voice, and is a postgraduate in comic opera The chorus is very strong and is splendidly trained The orchestra is excellent, and the entire company is we'll balanced and thorough.
 'It is unquestionably fact that this is the best company Grau has ever brought south. There are better singers, better comedians, brighter costumes, fuller chor- uses and a more ambitious repertoire Miss Randall Is a lady of fine reputa- tion. She Is clean, conscientious and ar tistic Her name is a recommendation to any troupe The comedian MT. Frear is fine one. The contralto has a good easy, natural voice. and her music was encored. The tenor is a gladiatorial specimen. He Is Corbett among his fellows. His voice. however, is full and round, and his solo, The Old, Sweet Way brought out the plaudits of the house."
 Matinees Thursday and Saturday. Ad- mission, 25 and 50 cents.

"TRlLBY" PLEASED THEM.
Two Audiences Delighted With the Dramatzed Version of du Mauriers Famous
 Novel,

''Trilby" was the attraction at o'Br- en's opera house yesterday afternoon and last evening and two large and well pleased audiences witnessed the per- formances
 .Trilbya has been written and talked about the past year more universally than any other novel. There is perhaps not reader of a newspaper or periodi- cal who is not familiar with Trllby Ayen- gali, Little Billee, Taffy, the Laird, Gecko Zon Zon, Dodar, Mrs. Bagot, Rev. Thomas Bagot and Mme. Vineyard, It required a genius to conceive "Trilby' and an artist to dramatize it.
 The scene of the play is located in the Latin quarter of Paris and the events chronicled are supposed to have occurred in the present century. Trllby, model is loved by the artists and is engaged to marry Little Billee. SvengaH, musi- clan, hypnotizes her and takes her to distant country, where, under his iniiu- ence she becomes a famous singer. After a period of five years, SVengan dy- ing, she can sing no more, but IS tound by her friends, the artists, and is again to marry Little Billee, but seeing Svengalis s picture she is again placed under his in fuence and the shock being too great for her already shattered nerves, she dies.
 The play is presented by very clever artists, though Walter Thomas as Little Billee and those in one or two other char acters might be improved upon. Miss Marion Grey is very pretty and acts the difficult role of Trilby admirably. The other principal parts are well placed, as follows: Propert Carlton as Taffy George D. Mcintyre as the Laird, Doug lass Lloyd as Geckeo. George H. Tradir as Zou Zou, George Gaston as Dr. Thom- as Bagot and Miss Elorina Oldcastle as Mime. Vineyard and c. H. Wilton as SVpuPali
