The Stars, Performance.

The entertainment by the West
ern Stars at the opera house last
evening was such an amusement
feature as could not fail to appeal
to those who were fortunate enough
to be present The stock phrase
small but appreciative audience"
must be used in connection with
last nights entertainment. Every
member of the company is an ar
tist in the strictest sense. The ap-
probation shown in the frequent
and hearty applause was enough to
satisfy anyone that the program
was highly enjoyed.
The opera house management
announces several other high class
entertainments for this season, and
it is to be hoped that the people
will avail themselves of these op-
portunities to enjoy clever, pure
entertainment.
