"BOHEME"
REPEATED

Puccini's La Boheme' was repeated
at the Grand Opera-house last night
with practically the same cast as that
of the first performance and with equal
success. The house was crowded.
Every seat was occupied, but a decent
regard for comfort and the law was
shown in the limited number of general
admission tickets sold. Beyond ques-
ton this is the most remarkable pro-
duction Of the Ellis repertory. Melba
shows a new and vigorously dramatic
phase Of her art in Mimi and De LUIS
san is an ideal Musette. The applause
last night was as great as at the first
"Boheme" performance. There was
storm of braves and repeated cries for
repetition after the great quartet, but,
as before, it was sung only once. The
one change in the cast was DE Vries,
who appeared in his own part of Schau-
nard. His acting was excellent, but his
voice, even in the limited opportunity
offered by this role, was not In good
form. This production was reviewed at
length in an earlier issue Of The Call.
All that is necessary to say now is
that last nights performance was in
every way as remarkable as the former
