Shakespeare grand tragedy. "IIam-
let. Prince If Denmark" was present
"a at the Opera House, last evening
with Edouard D'Oize and Miss Cath
arinc Erie as Hamlet and Ophclia 1t
was the first appearance Of the com
pahy in its engagement Of two even
inCs and one afternoon performa nee
and was meritorious of a far larger
audience than was present. for the rIay
was staged in excellent style ana it
was an evening of great enjoyment Tor
those lovers of Shakcspearian drama
who We're present.
The reputation Of Edouard p't>izc
reached Augusta before the actor him
self: nevertheless. he was somewhat Of
a surprise. for his work exceeded in
point Of excellence the pleasant expcc-
tationS Of the theatre goers of the
city. Unlike many attempted internre-
tations If the works Of the great poet
Mr. D'OiZe'S was characterized
throughout by the carnestneSs of an
actor who is putting his whole soul in
to his lines. In the parts that called
for a great display of action he was
especially strong.
Miss Erie was assured of the ad
miration "f the audience from the
start. This talented and charming
young actress was the fair opheli1 to
perfection. Perhaps she was the strong
est in the situation where, by the n.ur-
der Of her father she had lost her rea-
sen through grief The other members
Of the company gave almost faultless
support and are worthy Of nothing but
praise.

Hon. ii. W. Ogden, Congressman from

So many people think catarrh affects
the head only. This is q great mistake.
The stomach is liable to catarrh. The
