AMUSEMENT NOTES
"Ruddigore" Guaranteed by the Barre
Opera House Management.

To patrons of the Barre opera house:
The management of the Barre opera
house wishes to state that the coming
attraction, "Ruddigore," Gilbert & Sui
hvan's comic opera. which will he
played by the Boston English Opera
company Oct 2s. has his personal guar
antee to be without doubt the finest
and best attraction which the patrons
of this house will have the opportunity
of seeing this season. II is the same
opera which played over 200 nights in
New York and has big cast of eX-
ceptional artists, some of whom have
PLAYED Barre in different operas, in
Guiding robin Hood" which made
such a decided hit last season. The
management cannot recommend this
attraction too highly, knowing that ev
eryone who is fond of high class mu-
sic and artists of exceptional ability
and renown will be only too glad after
seeing "Ruddigore" to have them APP
pear here again, which the manage
ment is trying to negotiate. But TO
do SO il will be necessary to play to
capacity with this attraction, as this
company is under such an enormous
expense it is only possible for them
TO play the cities where the patronage
is best.
| sincerely hope that the theatre go
ing public will appreciate the fine AT
traction enough TO support "Ruddi-
gore" to the extent of a capacity house,
