terpreted- by TheVhitney Opera. Com
P5iiy the same organitation as ga,e
the opera for a . whole season at the
Casino in New York, and, which has
created an equal eensation in many

.Not since. Gilbert and ulljv.an's days
has. a. comic ppera acheved, the. success

ansvrgr ia not. far to eek. Mr. 'Whit-:
ney's .castiUig oT.t Op'ei-a ,was con
sidered almost perfGcL but for the
sake of its better xlII around presentaj
tipa he has this jear made a number of
changes in the cast, so that he consid
ers, the Whitney Opera Company to
day the finest organization of its kind
in the country, and he believes thai
the South will endorse his opinion..
An entirely new investiture of scen
ery and costumes has been brought
from Bulgaria for. the production here.
The drcssee, with their, rich embroid
eries, were all made by hand by the
peasants in , the Dragoman Pas3,
where the. scene of the-epcra is laid.
Miss'Grace Drew heads what ;has
been called - the best balanced cast.
seen in comic operja-in twenty years.
Miss Drew mad hfer first appearanco
in the parL-of . "Nadina" in Boston, fit
the beginning of this season, and her
success was so marked, that Mr. Whit
ney sent her thereafter to Chicago,
where she scored another' "personal
triumph; Lucille Saunders, one of the
best dramatic contraltos in . this coun
try today, and' whose voice has been
compared to that of the famous
Scalchi in her prime, and Ilion Ber
gere, the little Hungarian prima donna
from Vienna, are the other women in
the cast, ;wbich include? Miss Edith
Singleton, who alternates with Miss
Drew in the prima donna role. The
men are. equally strong, consisting of
CharJesPurceh, in the title role of
the .soldier lover; , , George Tallman,
who plays the pompons role of the
".Near (Hero" "Alexius," wijjmjplehdjd
effect and .who has . sung it 00 times.
Edmond Mulcahy and Frank -Belcher,
play the two buffo parts,-and. both are
graduates of the Grand .Opera school;
and are "bassos of extraordinary ability.
Miss Drew, .will sing in tonighfs
performance.'
