Show As usual our popular ltomq dramatic company was greeted with a good houso on their appearance in "Jack O' Diamonds" on Saturday night. For some reason they were late in starting but during the interval the otchestra played several good selections showing improvement in orchestral playing. In this play some splendid new scenery was shown for the first time to h good advantage but it would have been nicer had there been a better light thrown on it. In this play the characters wero shown to a good advantage but in one or two instances the actors did not wholly loose themselves in the character they were impersonating, but other scenes were very effective and taking it altogether alto-gether the company are to bo congratulated con-gratulated on their lendition of the well known play. The little girl took her part very well for ono so young and tho nudienco seemed highly pleased with the appearenco of the old maid. Tho company are going to repeat "My Partnei"on Wednesday evening, March 24, as a benefit for Mr. Elvers and a irood houso will no doubt greet them as people would rather pay to see a good thing by home talent than pay to eco many of tho traveling' "barn-storming" hikes. |
