A fair-sized ‘gudience was. present at the Theatre last night to witness the performance bythe Morrison company, the flower part of the house holding a large ssumber of people, while the gallery was but sparsely tilled. “Had the merits of the com. pany beén'known fora certainty there is not the least doubt but what standing room would have been at a ‘premium, and’ packed house would be their reward. . “Faust” as produced by this. cdmpany is usgqmestionably one of-the.-finest performances ever put on the stage of an} interiot city in this or any other Stata, and would surely meet with the consistent, approval. ofthe patrona of metropolitan . P play-houses. The personnel of the troupe, =2. A Club Has Boon Organizod in This City) and Intend. Holding a Fair.

The club hae not yet selected a name, but probably will at the next meeting. An effort will be made to ‘secure a large membership; ; Boil Your Drinking Water. Eminent physicians and writers on hy~ gienic regglations recommend the boiling of water before drinking it, and especially in localities where’ malaria prevails, as it is claimed that the water contais the malarial germs. Boiling the water sterilizes it and renders it fit for ue Quite’a number of péople in this city. have adopted the method of boiling drinking water before using it. . They should be equally careful about what taken asa whole, is inimitable when com. they eat, The best and purest groceries pared with traveling organizations which generally visit the interior portions of the tate. The members, both male:and female, have all the characteristics of the finished player and perform their allotted with rare excelletice. The costumes “weed and carried by the company as as part of ite immense wardrobe are exceedingly fine and of'a costly nature, the same being} resplendent with rich-hued velvets, laces and brocaded textures, The scenic efteote are another ‘praise-worthy feature. Everything tssential'to a perfect production of the great piece in the way of scenery is carried by the company independent of everything elec. In order to find room for the many wings, backs and outlines it was necessary to remove parts of the scenery nsvallty on the local stage from their aceustomed places to another part of the house. The powerful effects of the calcium light and electricity are brought inte play continually throughout the piece, giving realistic feature to the per formance never before witnessed here, The management and every one connected with the troupe are ladies and gentlemen . whom it is indeed a pleasure to ¢ome in confe tact with, So mucb for the company ip general, There are persons who censure the company by. reason of Lewis Morrison not being with them, but a moment's reflection will show that. no such pretense is made ‘by the management and therefore no one should be disappointed in that respect, The ‘fact.is the company is'one of # number sent out by that eminent theatrical star to proAuce his version of **Faust,”’ and the stalent for which has been selected: with the wtmost care, The leading man of the company is Mr. Wm. Roberts, while the leading lady is Misa Olive Martin, The for~ mer in Morrison’s-master role of Mephisto eas simply grand end in time will prove @ otrong rival of that player for histrionic honors in that particular role, He is but young in years yet is gifted with rare ver~ satility.and talent. The part of Mephisto as played by him shows hard and careful stady. -Hishollow laugh, or probably more appropriately putting it, the diabolical mockery, which follows some particularly Dase piece of work perpétrated thropgh the agency of his satanic majesty, has been cultivated till it hae reached a fineness upon which improvement is hardly possible. His gestures and actions were in perfect keeping eith his surroundings at all times, Miss Slartin’s rendition of Marguerite, the all too trusting maiden, was indeed “beantifal. in the extreme. In. some. portions of the iormance, notably in the first scene of the last act, she was strikingly handsome, and. was at all times ‘most ‘effective. Mt] Ulysses Davis was strong in the title role of Faust, who after entering into the compact with Mephisto was ander that worthy devil's enchantment in such # manner as to be irresponsible for what he did, Mr. _M, E, Nichols assumed the part. of Valen,tine, Marguerite’s brother, in masterful ymanner, It was in his ravings, in the third act in the scene of the Square of the Founitaine, when the death of his mother andj rthe shame of his sister were made known to thim, that all the sterling qualities of the actor shone forth. The rest of the support was of the very beat, ‘The epectacalar featares of the piece were: the cathedral scene, enveloped in total darkness as the blazing eroes 3) above the doors; the duel scene in which flashes of electricity dart from the swords, aid’ the great “Brockeu acene where the demons are holding their revelry amidst showers of fire and lightning : flushes, It was the best performance giver jo Nevada City in years. ‘Shoes For Six Bits.
