The stage. settings were ele- ant and in keeping with the time of Queen Esther. The solo parts were espeeially beautiful, and the soloists ac- |quitted themselves in a manner meriting the hearty applause they received. ‘] The king, in his gorgeous ap- parel, was a very realistic' figure, . {and sang and played his part in . |a most commendable way. The queen was the central figure of the play, and took her |pa1tin a way that won .for her the admiration of the audience. Her gowns were dazzling and had the Queen of Sheba,. in all ber glory, seen Queen Esther last night, she certainly would have abdicated thg throne in her favdr. The queen was atterded by four beautiful maidens. Space prevents the proper ing man who had acted strangely and was arrested, but was able to prove an alibi.
