A SPLENDID REHEARSAL.
THE BosToNIANs.

The Bostonians will present "1he
Serenade' at the Jefferson theatre, I'll
day night and Saturday matinee, and it
is safe to assume that this tuneful opera
will again attract large audiences. The
Bostonians have no better work in their
repertoire and no other opera presented
by them offers such complete cast OF
stars. Music lovers will remember that
"The Serenade" deals with the firtations
of AIvarado, a dashing baritone of the
Royal Opera, and Dolores, ward of a
jealous hidalgo. In order to escape the
attractions of the baritone, the watohful
lord takes Dolores to his castle in the
mountain. but the baritone disguised as
a position, goes with them. Beseiged
by brigands in the castle, the Duke, I'M
Willingly harbors his rival in his own
house. Other comic incidents come about
through Romero, a monkish bandit, a
love. lorn and stage-struck tailor, and
a broken.down tenor, who, warbling She
detested serenade in the presence of the
Duke, are mistaken for the rival and are
incaroerated. The action is then shifted
to the grounds Of monastery and an
convent,s and Alvarado who,

The Republican League Is a pref

July at Omaha, declared in their res
olutions that -

of maintaining of the single gold
standard and are unqualitiedly OPP

Mr.. Hanna, who speaks for the ad-
mlnistratioD and who is the highest
authority in the Republican party,
reprimanded the Republicans of Utah
and, through them, all other Repub-
icans, for even contemplating the
adoption Of free coinage platform.
In his letter to U. S. Marshall Mile,
he said:
II have been informed that it has
been suggested that the Republican
party of Utah at the next state con.
vention indor4e ill its platform the
free coinage of silver. AS CHAIR man

vention at st. Louis"
Notwithstanding all this and con-
trary to the commands Of Mr.. Hanna,
the Republicans of this State say the

is for bi.netallisn and rely on that
party to obtain it. Can anything he
