Grand Opera House.

The famous Wilbur opera company will be at the Grand opera house for three nights and three matinees, commencing on Thursday afternoon. The repertoire Will be Thursday matinee and night, "The Mascot" Friday matinee, Era Diavolo;" Friday night, Chimes of Normandy" Saturday matinee, Said Pasha;'' Saturday night, "Olivette." This company has the reputation of presenting the standard comic operas in the best manner of any company on the road. The company has been under the same management for over twenty-five years. a record unequaled in the the- atrical world. The operas, so-called, of the present day, do not begin to equal the ones of the past. One cannot recall an opera of the past ten years that has been received with such favor as has stood the test of time the same as Mascot" Chimes of Normandy" Bohemian Girl" or any of the works of Gilbert and Sullivan. The compos- CTS of to-day do not seem able to write the beautiful music and witty lines. the ones Of the past could, so the Will bur company has wisely stuck to the successes Of the past. The company this season is stronger and better than ever with new faces, new costumes and funny comedians, among whom are Miss Minnie Emmett, Marion Landon, Ethel Hunt, Mable Holly, Martin Pache. Franklin Fox, Tom Smith Martin, Hen ny Peakes, W. A. McGaw, Charles Van Dyne, and a chorus of pretty girls. Seat sale now open. Prices, 1Oc, zoe, soc, and no higher.
