TRIUMPHANT SUCCESS ON

OPENING NIGHT.-

The Italian Grand Opera Com pany had a very good house." on their first appearance last night, and the pleasure they gave... their audience will ensure them even bigger bookings during the romainder of their season at the Theatre Royal.

The offerings last evening were the two well-known

:operas "Cavalleria Rusticana" and "Pog~~ Haocl:"A few of the audience had to hurry away shortly before the second play came to a close, owing to the lateness of the hour, but apart from that inevitable drawback there was not a moment, while the artists wore on the stage, that was not thoroughly enjoyed, and time and again the more striking passages were en- thusiastically applausted. The members of the company, as Was to be expected, have excellent voices-magnificent in several casse and furthermore they are accomplished actors.

Mascagni's opera was most dramatically Bustained, and Signorina Lida Betti, aä Santuzza the village girl, scored an absolute triumph. Seldom have we seen as good representation of emotion":" as she conveyed, and her singing was splendid. The other members of the cast each filled his or her role to perfection, and, with the aid of an accomplished oborus and orchestra the fine musical: numbers of the piece were delight- fully rendered.

Cunego, however, who had the most tragic character to portray, the husband of Nedda, and be sustained it perfectly throughout. The closing scenes of the opera, when his passionate jealousy overcomes him, were most dramatically rendered. Sig- nor Pistro. Vecchi, as Nodde's lover Silo, was at his best when pleading with her to elope, his fine voice and histrionic power emphasising the tension of the

The players had to reappear at the close in response to prolonged applause by a thoroughly delight- ed audience.
