"BELSHAZZAR.
Historical Opera is Presented by
Local Talent.

The historical opera, "Relshazzar,"
was cleverly rendered by local talent
at the opera house last evening under
the auspices of the Congrega ational and
Christian churches. The opera is
heavy, yet affords vast field for
dramatic and operatic talent. The
stellar roles were well taken Andi the
chorus and militia were nicely drilled.
The presen taton OF the piece was un-
der the management of W. s. Smith,
who has worked long aud zealously to
make il success The stage settings
and wardrobes were elegant and
elected admiration from the audience.
Chas. A. Bosworth, as "Belshazzar,
King OF Babylon" played his part
earnestly, while Mrs. w. s. Smith was
becoming as "Nitocros " Mrs. f. o
Stevenson, of Saltwater, took the
role OF Antonio, the Queen" and
scored rounds OF applause and encores

GRADUATED TWICE.
Pawtucket High School Pupils Had

The Pawtucket high school graduating class
and the high school committee having patched
up existing differences as 10 where the gradu-

passed off successfully yesterday afternoon in
the high school hall. the limited capacity Of

delivered by Rev George J. Bloomfield, pas

church and former graduate of the school.
last night the graduation exercises were
repeated at the Auditorium. hall which
seats three times as many as the high school
hall, and thus the scholars as well as the COM
mlttee had their way, while the city wit
messed two graduations with but one set OF
diplomas.
The essays and orations were delivered in
a creditable manner. none of tho hard feel
ings engendered finding public expression, al
though many words Of dlsapproval OF the
controversy were beard among the audiences.
II was noticeable that the girls in the class
did not appear in their new graduation
gowns in the afternoon, reserving them for
the evening exerc ses and in spite Of the talk
about the narrow conbres OF the hall, an au'
tffencu OF not over 100 was present. the lack
Of attendance being due 20 the fact that an
opportunity was TO be given in the evening TO
witness the same exercises.
