go to make the best in fascinating
theatricals. 1t is of genuine comic
opera Calibre n the music is admir-
ably suited to the story of the opera.
P~retentiOus solos are numerous, duets,
triOs and quartettS, rich in harmony
and with alluring tempos delight the
critical music-lover and big, powerful
inspiring and masterful ensembles of
the magnifience and brilliance which
made Victor Herbert famous are IN
Guided, therefore it an readily be seen
that II Is far more than a mere musical
show which Mr.. Hammerstein is send
ing to us. The many characters in
clude American soldiers, French
nobility, Spanish senoritas, quardoons,
Crcoles and the lesser lights who made
New Orleans the most cosmopolitan
city in the world. All these, amid the
picturesque LOuisiana's Genes, where
chivarly and winsomeness reigned,
permit a display of emotions such as
are seldom conceived for a play. In
the case of Naughty Marietta-not
only are they conceived, but they are
shown with a tonal accompaniment
which beautifully displays their emo
tons, pleasures and pastimes. Truly,
it is a ClassiC-both book and music
and justly deserves the columns of
communication, n volumes of praise
and the remarkable capacity business
extended by. the press and public.
If it hadn't been for the Fairy Berry
lune, the children in The Blue Bird
(Which comes to the Fargo opera
house before the new year, would not
have been privileged with peeps into
the Vale of Happiness, the Kingdom
of the Future and other localities not
to be found in an atlas. So Fairy
Berylune is rather important, especial
ly as she is Alice Butler, a veteran
actress well known to Fargo theatre
goers. She used to be an opera singer
in London. D'OyIey Carte put her at
the head Of the light operate organiza-
ton sent to tour the states and she
stayed in the new country. Grotesque
characters in legitimate became her
forte. In the first act of The Blue
Bird Miss Butler is an apparition fit
to scare any yOungster, or grOwn-up
for that matter. She is just like the
ugly fairy one reads c. in books. But
underneath this outward atrocity
Tyltyl and Mytyl discover that a warm
heart beats, and they willingly follow
her in the quest or the Blue Bird, the
emblem of happiness.
TyltyI is q bold, self-confident little
fellow, Mytyl a shy, timid youngIlng.
Master Burford Hampden, the Tyltyl,
made his first glob%e-trotting voyage a
little over a yea ago. The manage
ment brought him oyer with his
parents, from London. Already ne was
famous in the Beerbohm tree produc-
tons. One beauty of Master Burford's
job is that he doesn't have to change
fathers on the stage Inc off. His
daddy in real life is also his daddy

ception of the poem. Mrs. w. A. Cor

paniment made a beautiful setting for
the reading. Preceding the reading
Mrs. Gordon gave a short paper on

fessor Froysan in his violin solos of
Hungarian dances, Miss Fjelde in her
piano selections. Mrs. Craswell in her
