ADJUSTMENTS.

An overlooking house and an enthu-
siastic one besides, was at the Theatre
last night to greet the noted extrava-
ganza 1892, whose great run was one
of the features of the worlds fair year,
and which has been seen in Salt Lake
several times before. Last nights au-
dience found it as fresh and entertain
ing as ever, however, judging from the
applause and the encoreS, and but for
the name it might have been voted a
new show throughout. The comic mon
arch Ferdinand, the stately Isabella,
now played by Stuart, 1.-The male
Patti" and Christopher Columbus are
all still in evidence, but the songs.
dances, speciality and scenic effects are
all up to date. The costumes are gor-
geouS though some of them, and nota-
bly, one worn by a very embonpoint
captain, give shockingly small chance
to the imagination. The star is I'M
doubtedly Mr.. Stuart, whose soprano
singing is. wonderful. McNeil's tramp
act was very clever, and the dancing
of the soloist. the basso work of Mr..
Sample and the quartette generally
were all of a good order. The living
pictures were artistic, if startling, and
awoke a storm in the galleries because
they were located so far to the rear of
the stage. The same bill goes but once
more and is good for another big house.
The "Parlor Match" sale opens at the
Theatre this morning.
At the Grand, Carter's Chattanooga
bids fair to draw good houses all the
week.
W. G. Patrick, son of Councilman
Robert Patrick, and an old employee
of u. c. NJ. L, left for New York last
evening, with a view to entering upon
a course of musical study. Mr. Patrick
! has a good baritone voice and has long
been one of Evan Stephens promising
pupils. His many friends will wish
him every success.

| So thoroughly did Paloma Schramm
enjoy her experience of playing on the
organ in the tabernacle, as mentioned
| in these columns Monday morning, that
| her manager, Mr.. Partridge, arranged
with Professor Daynes to let the little
| pianist again try her tiny fingers on
the keyboards of the great instrument,
| and for more than half an hour yes
! terday, with the assistance of Profess
sor Daynes to manipulate the stops
which the child could not reach, Palo-
ma S touch brought forth from the
grand organ music such as was never
|
child. At first she improvised, using at
times one of the keyboards and then
another, and occasionally sounding a
few notes by the pedals, which her feet
could reach only by sliding forward on
her seat. Later she played a wedding
march from Wagner. In addition to
Paloma, her sister Earla and their
father and mother and the child's bus
mess manager, there were present a
few tourists, whose wonder was be-
yond expression when they learned
that child of only 10 years was the
source of What they had listened to sc
intently.
Arrangements for another concert
have not yet been completed, but it is
to be hoped that the large number OF
music-lovers in this city may have an
other opportunity of hearing the child
wonder ere she passes on to Denver
The matter will be determined today
so that a definite announcement one
way or the other can be made by to-
morrow mornings press.
