THE ToRNADo.-Lincoln J. Carter's
Tornado" appeared for the first time
in this city at the Opera House last
night to large audience. The COM
pany is one of the best ever
seen in this city. The scenes
Mount Maple, the collision at sea of
two steamers, the Chicago harbor, the
dissecting room and the woods below
Mount Maple-were received with much
applause. The last of the third act,
the fire scene, brought forth applause
that fairly shook the theatre. Miss
Willie Simms, as Lulu, captivated the
audience, while Miss Emma Whitney
and Messrs. w. H. Evarts and AL

roar of laughter from start to finish.
The tornado scene was the most realistic

here. The manager of the Opera
House is to be complimented for such
au extraordinary attraction.
