Opera Heaee Ta-!tlght. f Concerning Mr. Robert Downing, who is to present the "Gladiator" at the' Opera House te-nlght, the Philadelphia Herald saya: Tra genian Balvini who added largely to his fame by bis excellent perform ances as "Nero, the Gladiator," ia Baumet's strong drama of that name, has a powerful rival in Robert Downing, the well-known American actor. Mr. Dowbing assumed that character in the play presented at the Grand Opera House last evening, and the audience stamped his work with the mark of approval. The re ward was well merited. Mr. Down ing ia admirably suited to the part la many particulars. He has a pow erful voice, under complete control, and tha figure of a genuite gladiator, while his every utterance and move seems moulded fer the part He has an able assistant in his wife, Miss Eugenia Blair, as kNeo dasnla," She too has a fine form and ber face is remarkably well fitted to the girlish character she assumes. "Xeodaruia," sacrifices her love for ths Church while standing before the allar of Juno to be united in marriage and when she, as a Chris tian, is led away to be slain by "Nero" in the arena, the attention of the audience is riveted ou their effective work . Then the gladiator discovers by a mark on "Neodamla'a" neck that abe is his daughter. "Nero" throws bis sword aside, elasps hi daughter to his breast and while he defies the gods and man to separate them, the spectators are willing to shout their approval.
