Evening.
Audience Was Not a Large One
But the Presentation MerItted n Full
House 'Otheilo'' Will be tsiven

All the praise that has been bestowed
on the William Owen company and more
was deserved by the performance at the
Opera House last evening, when the
company played Bulwer Lytton's mas
terpiece. "Richelieu." To say that the
audience was well pleased ia but stating
the simple truth They had ex ed a
good deal from the company and they
were more than satisfied.
2 "Richeieu" is piece az famous as any
OF ShaeksDear's works, giving ample OPP
purtunity for each OF the members
to show his or her ability to advantage.
Owens Interpretation of the character of
the old cardinal was considered excellent
in every detail. Many OF the audience
had seen Keene when he appeared in the
same play at Houghton year or so ago
and the opinion was freely expressed
after the entertainment that Ovens act
ing in the leading character was even
superior TO that OF Keene.
In one respect the Owen company sur.
passes Keeue and his troup that visited
this section OF the country with him
that is in regard to the esupport. Owens
was very good 1t was said of Keene
that be tried to shine by contrast and
for that reason was not at all particular
as TO what kind OF support he had.

company is an artist and showed it last
evening. Clair Fletcher as Count Bara-
das and J, W. Mcdonnell as Chevalier De
Mauprat was particularly good and
Miss Baker as Julie De Mortimer also
made hit.
The company was hampered by the in
ability TO use their stage settings for the
production on account of the size OF the
stage, For the same reason the perform
ance OF Romeo and Juliet" will not be
given tomorrow afternoon as intended,
but David Garrick" will be substituted.
This evening the company produces
"Othello," and tomorrow evening "The
Merchant OF Venice" is the bill The CON-
pany realizes that it has struck Calumet
at particularly bad season OF the year
for theatricals, but the people can well
afford to forego the pleasures OF Christ
mas on one OF the evenings the company
is here and take IN a performance, az it is
well worth seeing. They are making
reputation here and intend playing this
city again in the spring.
