Cinderella.

A large audience witnessed the
performance of Cinderella last Fri
day night at Reynolds Opera House.
1t was without doubt the most pop.
ular attraction seen in the house
this year. The nature of the en-
tertainment was sort of musical
melange. 1t was originally cam
tanta, but has been rejuvenated
with specialties and modern With
cisms. The plot, however, has not
been lost in the frolic. The seen
cry and the costumes were all good;
in fact the the show has been dress
ed and staged with view of play
ing to respectable and intelligent
houses. This is point too often
neglected IN the performances we
are usually asked to patronize.
Manager Alley gives his personal
attention TO every detail, and the
consequence il smooth, clean and
reputable performance. The prin-
RaI.fsatuIe oftthe attraction was
~ the ~.as. This was sadly lack
ing in the Herald Square presenta-
ton here few weeks ago and
while the latter surpassed Cinder-
ella with its principal singers, no
musical comedy is complete with
out a respectable chorus. Miss
Foreman sings with a good strong
voice, which shows the result of
considerable training. She is also
a good actress. Miss Meredith has
pleasauter voice probably, but
less effective in its dra matte quail
ties. The comedy side of Cinderella
was unusually good. One Of the
best rural haracterizations ever
seen in the city was done by Mr..
Morris in his speciality. 1t was de-
cidedly the hit OF the evening. AL
together Cinderella proved its
claims to our theatre patrons in
more satisfactory manner than any
other production this season, and a
"a return date would be heartily
patronized and appreciated.

Landing on Sakha|in Island
A Master Stroke.
kniaz Potemkine Sailors Tired Of
Piracy and Surrender.
ON RUSSIAN SOIL.

st. Petersburg, July 10 \. NJ
With the japanese flag hoistcd for the
first time on Russian soil after Is
months of war. the Importance of the
landing on the island of Sakhaln is
generally admitted both in newspaper
comment and in government circles.
Complete occupation Of tho island is
regarded as foregone conclusion.
The Novoe Nrcmya verses the gcncr-
al sentiment i'll holding Of Sakhalin
puts a powerful lever in the possession
of japanese diplomacy which finally
has something tangible in its hands to
throw upon the scales with the sword
in the coming conference.
There is II divergcncy Of opinion with
regard to the effect it will have upon
the negotiations at Washington. some
of the irreconcilables declaring that it
males peace at the present juncture
more impossible than before, as Japan
Will be able to demand the cosSion of
the island and a heavy indemnity as
well. at which terms peace will be cost
~. but the more prevalent view is that
JaIan has now in her hands enough
trumps to take the game.
The attack on the island certainly
dissipates one of the hopes of the peace
advocates who have been suggesting
that its voluntary Cession might be an
offset with Port Arthur and the Chi
nesc Railroad. against the payment of
a large part or all of Il none AIRY in
dcmnity.
No further report Of the landing OPP
erations has been received.
NJ Muravieff, the Russian ambassa-
dor at Rome, and one of the peace
plenipotentiaries, has arrived in st. Pc
tersburg and called upon Foreign Min
lister Lamsdorff, yesterday. His suite
has been completed by the selection of
two secretaries from the foreign office.
The Nolre Vremya joins in the press
chorus against NJ. Muravieff, saying it
is hard to tell how good a. diplomat he
will prove as he certainly was not n
success at The Hague. The paper says
that Baron ItoSen, the other plenipo-
Tertiary. on the contrary is q skillful
diplomatist and has been socially sue
CeSsful.

The strength of the landing force
