Of the Lancasterian School Association.

 The members of the association, and all others who have been pupils of MT.

 It is hoped that this year the attend
 ance will be specially large, as at the meeting the question of discontiuing the association may come up for discus sion Many of the old school boys want to have the association, with all the memories that cluster around 1t, kept up right along. It certainly has strong vitality, and the annuals are greatly enjoyed and are very interesting af- l fairs.
 It is hoped also that all who expect to attend the supper will buy their | tickets at Peck's bookstore to-day in order that some idea may be obtained | by the committee as to how many guests to provide for.

GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

i Carl Millockers charming comic bpera. "The Black Hussar," was pre- scented yesterday by the Wilbur Opera company to large audiences at both performances. The greatest credit is due the management and all concern ed for the eninently successful way the production was given and put on. It has never enjoyed superior settlng in this city to that given last nlght, and the finale of the second act created unbounded enthusiasm when the band made it's appearance. It is also put rieht that the management should De credited with even more than was ex- pected of it. There was not hltch III the entire performance, and every thing moved splendidly. The comic element predominates largely in The Black Hussar." The audience laughed heartily at the comicalities of Hack enback. enacted by MT. Claud Amlder and over the doings of the omnipres- ent Piffkow, cleverly presented by MT. H. Kohnle. Miss Bolton was a. most acceptable Barbara. The charming Miss Eloise Mortimer was never in better voice than she was in the opera yesterday. She is one of the best comic opera singers that we have had the pleasure of hearing in this city. Miss Mortimer had a new song, entitled, sOh, Come to Me-" defeated to her by a well-known Boston publisher the past week. The remainder of the cast yesterday was excellent. There are no dull moments in the opera. It is full of life and movement throughout, this being largely due to the military flavor that prevails, keeping the attention of the auditor throughout. "The Black IIussar' is decidedly better adapted to the voices of this company than any opera yet given, and therefore greater degree of success was attained musically than has yet been the case
 Throughout the music is very tune ful. The opera to be sung to-day VII be "The Grand Duchess"
 The Rooney Comedy company vii be at the Grand Opera House Monday and present "Lord Rooney" Matinee: Tuesday and Wednesday. Young Pa Rooney, who is chip of the old block will give the songs and sayings tha made his father famous.

A Beautiful Big Dog.

One of the largest St. Bernard dogs in America can be seen at the Grand
 Opera House this week in the living picture scenes. It is owned by MT.
 Hilliard, who is with the company.
 This fine dog weighs 1SO pounds and has feet and head quite leonine in ap- pearance. His owner values him at 10000, paying $500 for his dogship when a few weeks old. He is now nineteen months old and holds the championship of the country in his class. Gentle and kind and possessing intelligence almost to human nature, he is an animal to love and to value even at the high water mark of s10, 600.
