Fine Onera Coming

The Marguerite sylvia Comic Opera
Company, in THE Princess Chic "
comes 10 the Grand Opera House On
Tuesday night. If accounts which have
reached here prove correct, this new
singeR in comic opera is going to prove
that this field of entertainment has
once more obtained a vocalist and ac-
tress OF rare personal charms. Miss
Sylvia is product OF Belgium, and. as
one critic has put it, "she is a kind OF
exotic as hard to place as one CT those
orchids which take root in the balmy
air OF the tropics and blossom for rhe
mere sake of showing what nature can
do If she just puts her mind to it," The
comic opera in which Miss Sylvia will
appear was written by Kirke La Shelle.
Julian Edwards supplied the melodies.
The opera is spoken of as delightfully."-
fertile in the elements of romance, conf
edy, picturesqueness and music. The
scene is laid in Perone, Burgundy. dur
ing the reign of Louis XI of France.
and it is said that every opportunity
has been taken advantage Ofin exquisite
pictorial settings and striking cos
tunes. The titles of the lyrics indicate
fiavoring of love and strife. mixed
with comedy, such as "A Charger Coed
and Lance Give Me" Fighting Men,
Soldiers Of Fortune" WAR is a Boun-
tiful Jade" The following are of a
seriO-comic tinge; "The Story Book
and Days of Magic" The sentimental
are: "The Lovelight in our Eyes" "The
Wood Nymph and the River God"
Shes But Woman" and the princi-
pal comic songs are: How Are We to
Know THE Tide is Rising" and "The
Foolish Swallow" The support of
Miss sylvia includes Joseph c. Miron,
Hubert Wilke, Thomas c. Leary Wal
ter A. Lawrence Frederick Knights
Neil Mcneil, Isabelle Underwood and
Agnes Paul. There is a large chorus
and the company altogether is one OF
the most extensive travelling on the
road hhis season.

the names of all the taxables of said
county together with the sums on them
rated and all the debts due from said
county to sundry persons for that year
