 ROBIN HOOD.
 The announcement that the ever popular and tuneful light opera, Robin Hood" will be sung here has given intense sat isfaction to all classes of amusement goers. While the opera has been con- stantly sung for nearly six years, it's continued demand by the public be- speaks 1t an interminable lease of life. No more successful light opera has ever been written, and as it's principal melo- dies have been sung and whistled the length and breadth of the land, the his tory of its production and list of singers who have appeared in the various roles is of interest.
 The libretto of Robin Hood" was writ ten by Harry S. Smith, and the score by Reginald De Koven, who submitted it to the Bostonians for production in 1S90 It was originally produced at the Chi cago opera house June 9, 1890, with the following cast: The sheriff of Noting ham, Henry Clay Bernabee, Will Scarlet Eugene Cowles Little John, William H. Macdonald; Friar Tuck, George Froth- ingham; Alan-a dale, Jessie Bartlett Da- wis; Maid Marian, Marie Stone; Robin Hood, Edwin Hoff; Sir Guy, Peter Lang. The opera at once found instant favor, and was produced in New York and the principal cities of the United States for long runs. The role of Robin Hood has alone been sung by eighteen artists. Among the tenors who have appeared in the title role are Tom Carl, Edgar Tenn pie, Harold Blake and others. Among the artists who have had personal tri- umphs in the opera is that famous so- prano, Marie Stone, Camille D'Arville, Caroline Hamilton, Eloise Morgan, Ju- lia Corden, Helen Bertram and Alice Neilsen This year the soprano role will be alternated by those beautiful women, IIilda Clarke and Alice Nielsen.
 The original members of the Boston, fans who still sing the original roles are Barnabee, Macdonald, Davis, Cowles, Buckingham and Bartlett. The cast here will include the entire singing strength of the organization.
