There was another large audience at
! the Grand Opera House last night and
| the prediction appears to be justified
| that crowds will be turned away be-
| fore the engagement is brought to a
| close. The company is certainly mer-
| itorious. and the specialties would do
| credit to most high class vaudeville
| companies. There are opportunities
| furnished for patriotic outbursts.
| which is taken advantage Of by the
| audiences, in the animated pictures Of
| The Maine and the Havana harbor. and
| in the vocal selections by the colored
/ quartette. Mr.. Joseph kettler, who did
! such excellent work with the Wilson
/ Theatre Company in this city, has
| joined the Wilson Comedy Company.

al the Opera House Friday, matinee
| and night April 18th. The production
| by this company is said to be elaborate
| and at the same time correct, the seen
| cry plentiful and realistic and the
| transformation effective. The familiar
! roles of Marks, Topsy. Eva. George
| Harris, Eliza, Legree are interpreted
| by capable actors and actresses. The
| darkies, ponies and bioodhounds added
| materially to the realism of the per-
Torrance and to the interest of the spec
