The evening tribune. (Pawtucket, R.I.) 189?-190?, 1897-01-13

David j. White won winning praise OF
the most superiative order for his charac-
tsrization of Decius, King Of Njord. He
has voice of rare excellence and sung
particularly well. Viva A. Dexter played
the part of Autha, attendant to Zephra
with spirit and grace.
The men were all satisfying and effective
in their work. William l.. Bartlett as
Clarence O'Toole McFadden, Sergeant OF
the Squad, made distinctive hit and kept
the audience In good humor during the
time he was on the stage.
The tabieaux were as follows: "Cupid's
Retreat" ''The Elves Arch" "The Mys-
tic Bower" ''The Golden Streets" 'The
Home of the Fairy Queen"
The several marches were dazzling feat :
ures. The young ladies executed the diff
ferent movements with dexterity, grace and
decidedly pleasing effect. The costumes
were pretty and the scene was kaleidos-
copic under the rays of vari-colored effects.
The whole is a curious mingling OF
romantic opera with an occasional trend
in the direction OF farce comedy. 1t Is
never wearisome; the action moves brisk
ly, the stage pictures are always effective,
somestimes stirring; the costumes are
varied and picturesque, the scenery is OF
genuine artistic beauty and the effect OF
the whole is spirited and inspiring.
The production will be given for the re-
mainder of the week with Saturday
matinee.
