O. Miss Nielsen's new opera, the New

With a company whose quality reminds
one OF the Bostonians in their earlier days,

all these adjuncts to success Miss Alice Mel

great audience filled the house, and
while there were only here and there roars
OF laughter at comic incidents, applause ac-
companied every scene and vocal number,
and the concensus of opinion was that the
new piece is bright. tuneful, pretty and al
together delightful TO those whose taste is
not vitated by the horseplay OF alleged
comic OPERAS OF the day.
Miss Nielsen was charming in her dual
role OF the singing girl and in her disguise
as stephen, and sang the score with bril-
liancy and sweetness unusual in the worn
voices OF the contemporaneous comic opera
stage. Encores galore were demanded. and

help Congress to realize the nature OF It's
extraordinary action. We quote from our

necessity for even such temporary recognition Of

This is the emotional view wholly.
There are many other offences be-
sides polygamy. but not one OF them will
justify House Of Representatives in
refusing the customary oath to member
who like ROBERTS, satisfies the Constitu-
tioual requirements Of eligibility.
ROBERTS has as clear right as had Gen.
HENDERSON, who was chosen Speaker, to
take the oath as Representative, and to
take his seat. From there he could be
dislodged and cast out by q majority Of
two-thirds, according to the Federal Con-
stitution, and In no other way could the
Constitution be satisfied.

dcmeaning business. for one OF the houses
Of Congress to destroy or even to bend,
