Large Audience Bids Farewell.
The Opera House was crowded to
the doors last night for the farewell
performance of the Pollard company.
The show was great success in every
way, and all of the songs We're en-
cored many times.
The first part, the minstrel show,
was set in very novel and pleasing
way. The three swings that We're
originally put UP for the swing song,
were lowered, and three of the girls
used these as seats. The six come
dams, three on either Side, sat up
against the proscenium and the other
members of the company were group
ed farther back on the stage.
The orchestra piano was well load
ed with flowers for the fair members
of the company. and there was much
carrying of bouquets after every en-
core. The Pollards We're all at their
best, and everybody enjoyed the show
thoroughly, from the first song to the
end of the comieal farce which closed
the entertainment.
