AMUSEM ENTS.
1.-THE Black Crook" Toniqh,

At the Opera House tonight Mcssrs.
Miller and Plohn will present Il brand
new version of The Black Crook
In reviving this notable spectacle, the
management while they have to some
extent followed tradition, have not hes
itatcd to introduce much that is mod
cIn, but not 50 much that The Black
Crook" will lose its identity. The ver-
sion of the play, for it is unlike the
new style of extravaganza and can lay
claim to the title play" inasmuch as
il possesses a definite plot, is the one
that was used by the kiralfy Brothers
III their notable revival of several years
ago. While the old idea of a ballet has
been discarded in the present produc-
ton, there will be no lack of femininity,
as instead of ballet dancers a large
chorus of beautiful girls is employed.
Their is also TO be introduced several
high vaudeville acts, among them
being that of the Five DonazettaS not
ed European acrobats, a novelty dane
ing number in the eight English girls
and a ventriloquil specially by Mr.. and
Mrs. c. W. Williams. well-knOwn in
music halls of both the OLD and New
Worlds.
The dramatic east included Emmett
C'COnnor, Joseph Cusack. Claude
Lightner, VIM. Lewis, Edith Carlisle,
Maud Martin, Clara Sidney, Hilda
