The Show Last Night.

The Operetta "Olivette" was render
ed last night at the opera house to a
very large and appreciatlve audience
by the Grau Opera. company. The
Oper was a series of comedies and bur-
lesques and the Righteousness of some
parts of the play brought the audience
to an uprOar.
The singing was splendid and all the
artists were loudly applauded. Miss
Eloise Mo- timer, VINO had the leading
part, captivated the audience with her
sweet voice and superb acting. Miss
Fanny Meyers also showed her abili-
ties as singer and each of these lead
ing Lads will grow in the public g
favor" Miss Darlington OILY had a
minor part last night and was not able
to show her abilities. Miss Ward was
also vivacious and attractive figure
on the stage, and in the Horn pipe
as dancer, along with Miss Moller.
Stanley Fe. CHI, the comedian, has i'm
proved since hIS last visit to this city
and his appearance on the stage, even
without saying a word, is enough to
bring the audience to an uprOar. Mar
tin Pache, the tenor, and SIlvan Lang
lois, ike baritone, app AIRED to advan-
tage and struck q favorable cord with
the house. Little Willie Kirst, the boy
tenor, also caught the house in his
echo song from the gallery and he was
called back for q repetition.
Not only are all the leading actors
good. but the chorus as we'll, and the
company shows that in an emergency
they can call on some of the chorus tu
fill leading parts.
Tonight the play will be Martha
and many more specialties will be in
troduced. Willie Klrst, the boy tenor,
will sing on the stage tonight land M IS
Darlington will also have prominent
part.
