Grand Opera House.

! Gtanc opera mouse.
The production of Fra Diavolo" at
the Grand opera house last night by
the Wilbur opera company was mark
ed by the same conscientious effort and
careful attention to detail that always
mark the operas presented by this COM
pany.
| Auber's tuneful work waso given a
picturesque setting, and both principals
and chorus did excellent work. E. A,
Clark gave a rollicking impersonation
of the title role, and Hattie Richardson
as Zerlina was very fetching. In fact,
there was little left to be desired so
complete was the whole performance.
The Wilbur people have evidently
caught on, as the crowded house bore
evidence last night.
| Twenty living pictures were shown,
most of them new since the company
was last seen here. 1.-THE Seeley Din
ner'' was portrayed, with the famous
Little Egypt mounted on the table.
Among the other pictures that seemed
to find favor with the audience were
"Raphaers Angels DIANA" "The
Fisher Boy" Spring and "The
| Nymph of the Wave" 1.-THE Yellow
Kid" was also well received.
| AT the matinee this afternoon Often
bach's opera, THE Grand Duchess,
will be given. The prices at the matt
nee to-day will be 10 cents, Is cents and
rs cents, and there is no doubt but what
the house will be crowded. In the eve
ming Balfe's favorite opera, The Bo-
hemian Girl" will be sung.
The operas for the remainder of the
week will be: Thursday, Martha;
Friday, Mariana" Saturday evening

ter record than "a Railroad Ticket,
written by Joseph M. Gates. 1t con-
tinues to move along season after sea
son, giving better satisfaction each
time. 1t is a musical farce comedy
and while it introduces many special
ty people, they are all novelties. II

that carries interest until the final cur.
tain. The music, songs, dances ant
medleys with which the performance
Ia bounds are bright and catchy, the cos

ENTERTAINMENTS.



Mr.. John Drew and his American
company, under the direction OF Mr.
Charles F'rohman, will be seen at the
Hyperion theater this evening. The
play will be Rosemary" and Mr.. Drew
will have the part of Sir Jasper Thorn
dyke. Both play and character make
for this versatile actor the greatest
personal and professional triumph Of
his career, which Is saying a great deal
taken into consideration. Rosemary"
spent five continuous months at the
Empire theater, New York, breaking
all records at that famous and fash
ionable playhouse. Miss Maud Adams
comes as Mr.. DreW's leading lady, and
the others in his cast embrace Harry
Harwood, Arthur Byron, Daniel Har-
kins, Graham Henderson, Frank E.
Lamb, Victor Moore, Mrs. Deloss King,
Miss Ethel Barrymore and Mrs. Annie
Adams.
AS Sir Jasper Thorndyke, Mr.. Drew
will present the bachelor whose heart
is touched with love for the simple,
sin1pering, curl-dangling maiden whom
accident has driven across his path,
and who is compelled to smother the
last spark of this love and sacrifice the
brightest dream that ever lit his life,
because the maiden loves another, is a
thoroughly human, flesh and blood low
er, and just the sort of a role to win
woman's sympathy and hold her in
thrall. John Drew in the garb of a
young English squire, and with his
graces of speech and attitude and the
force of his ever-agreeable and con-
quering art, makes a Sir Jasper that is
irresistible.
The story of Rosemary" lays first
claim upon the finer emotions, although
it is told with e. delicious comedy flavor
and is threaded along a succession Of
twinkling laughs. The odor of flowers
is in it, sweet and subtle, and the re-
membrance plant dominates it over all.
Sale of seats now open.
