The production of the fairy opera of “Cin derella™ at Boyd's opera house during the weck of June 18 will be an event which, in importance in local attractions, will scarcely be equalled, and perhaps nover oxcelled, and the management feels that the public should be given some information concerning its origin and continucd succoss, This enter tainment will be given under the personal supervision of Mrs, Agnes Benton, of New York, who is the originator of juvenile opera. Mrs. Benton instructed and trained the first juvenile opera company America ever saw, that being Haverly’s Juvenile Pinafore com- pany, which swept the United States with such aTurore and attained a success which has never been approached until the author of that popular scheme conceived the the idea of producing *‘Cinderella.” This charming extravaganza gves the pub- lic & better view of fairyland than can be found in dreams or pictorial primers, It is gorgeous and mag- ficent and all the scenic effects necessary to connect reality with the transcendent beau- ties of wonderland are brought into requisi- tion. The success of these entertainments has been pnenominal. At no time since they were instituted has the management ever failed to score the most flattering success, and it is always due to the merits of the en- tortainment. “Much time and labor is ro- quired to train from five hundred to a thou- sand children tofperform the different roles of the cast, but the patience and energy of the instructress has never failed to over- come atl obstacles, and those who witness this rendition of “Cinderella” will readily Rorn'('h'n that it merits all the praise that it as ever received. BARRY AND FAY. Those two inimitable Irish comedians, Hugh Fay and William Barry, appear at Boyd’s opera house Tuesday night in their new play, “McKenna’s Flirtations. Barry and Fay are well known in Omaha and they will undoubtedly attract a large audience. DOW S THE GLADIATOR. Robert Downing as Spartacus, the Gladi- ator, under the management of J, H. Mack, plays an engagement at Boyd’s opera house Wednesday and Thursday nights. He is ably supported by a_very slronfi company, and the scenery used in the production was erpecially designed and painted by William Voeghtlin. It consists of five separate and distinct sets, and is pronounced historically correct. All the costumes, armors and im- plements of Roman_warfare were manufac- tured by Dazian & Eaves, of New York. Mr. Downing has created considerable furore in the east by his vigorous interpretation of this strong character, the press and public unini- mously proclaiming him the legitimate suc- cessor to Edwin Forest and John McCul- lough. The play is sufficiently well known in Omaha to insure a large business. Friday evening Mr. and Mrs. F. Massey Howard, both great vocalists, will aj Boyd's in an act from “Boheiian G “Maritana,” the porformance c ith the comedietta, “My Cousin,” the cast being as follows Licy Everott, a socioty belle, Imna How- ard. Cousin Charley, home from London, F. Massey Howard. Factotum, u retired soldier, Charles Me- Donald. A number of vocal selections will be inter- spersed through the performan There will be several choruses rendered comprising fifty voices, and the piece will conclude with an old fashioned country dance. Miss Fan- nie Arnold is the directr TOM BOYD. The New York Spirit of the Times has the following to say about a_well known local manager: “Thomas I'. Boyd, of the oper: housc which bears his name, deserves the thanks of Omaha's amusement loving public for the excellent attractions that he has pre- sented during the past season.” TUE PEOPLE'S THEATER. * Another new company 15 announced at this popular resort, including noted sketch and speciulty artists in the variety world. Among the names appear Smith_and ilis, Jumes Flynn and Maud Walker, Ma zrow and Mack and Miss Rose Sydell.

Baby Bunting is a Chinese horse twenty-six inches high “and thirty-six inches lo Wherever exhibited Baby Bunting has proved a great delight for lngies and children. The Devil Clawed Boy is a youth with horns on fingers and toes vearly s foot long. Sanford and Williams' specialty company of twenty performers will appear at each performance, (WO GILMOKE JUBILRES. Gilmore hs been heard in Omaha before, but never with such an aggregation of vocal artists and unovelties as he will introduce next Thursday, The Boston jubilee cannon accompaniment will be given with a_batter, of six real cannon, manufactured expressly for Mr. Gilmore' to use in jubilec work, They are breech loading and capable of twenty shots per minute from each gun, These will be placed somewhere outside of the opera house and connected by wire with an clectric keyboard on the stage, from where they are fired in exact time with the ic, and with an effect deep and stirring, ) cannot be attained in any other way.

Displeased With Dodge Street Paving —Talk of an Injunction. contr > paving on Dodge str ye and the work of laying will begin to- cow-—unless enjoiued by indiznant prop- y owners. Some of the latter have fouud rotten blocks among those already delivered, and one gentleman estime the defective material at thirty-five to fifty por cent of the whole. A majority of the tax puyers be- tween Twentieth aud Twenty-sixth sty petitionad for a more durable payving L) codar, but were told that the material could not readily be bad, and that the work was thereby in danger of being delayed anotis year, It was on this representation that sowme of the petitioners changed over to cedas block. It was also with the understanding that Contractor Smith would give them the best material in bis line as well s prompt service. These property ows feel that they were induced to ask for codar against their better judgment, and they are highly indignant at the apparent attempt to run in blocks that ave worn eaten and full of pith and dry rot. There will be an inspection, of course, but there scems to be o foeling that he will inspect more in the interest of the contractor than the city. The situstion was discussed informally yestordsy by & number ‘i“l“;i::“tlxuwmij n‘arn and there is talk of getting injunction " of o codar biosks. o shap S layiag 8T. LOUIS PILGRIMS, How They Fared on the Road and in St. Lonis. William Shull was one of the last to pur- chase his ticket for St. Louis on Sunday ovening, and was among the first to again reach the pavements of Omaha. He was found by a Bee man at the novelty works where he had just subjected his eyes to an immense fanning mill which had removed therefrom a pint of cinders, William wore a small red ribbon marked N. L. D. C. He was full of the convention and seemed in pretty fair condition. Mut his hat had a spare-rib expression whioh suggested treat- ment from without rather than fodder from within. Explaining the anomaly “Billy” said: “'You seo that hat, well 'help I must get the ‘kid’ to press it ont. No sir, it ain't & one seventy-fiver, It cost $5. Well, we were shouting for Cleveland." we wero dancing too, and my hat caught the fever, especially after it got struck with acane. Thero's the mark, see! Well, the hat danced around and then gave me the slip and finally got into a pile of other plugs of all colors and previous conditions of ser- vitude, 1 told a fellow my name was Shull, and surc enough, I had put my name in the lining. But let me tell you when that hat cane reached mo, Inever thought I'd see my hat again. Soe that window over there, well, it went that far on a fly, It was a hit for two bags. Where's Morrissey ! Ha, ha, ha. Talk about shouting, Morrissey right now —(Thursday) is at the corner of Fourth and Ohio streets cheering and throwing up his hat. Jim Boydt Well, I didn’t see much of Jim, T don't know where he is. Did we have a gosd time on the train going to St. you better bet we did. Of ved up next aay. I know I “Were you thivsty? ‘Thirsty with the Mississippi within reach? No, sir: I'll never thirst with water so near. Joe Tehon? [Here Mr. Shull gave a Cleve- land whoop, a Bill Allen roar, and end- man's laugh.] Joe sat_in the gailery in the rear of the speaker. When Cleveland was nominated he took a red hat, redder a great sight than his own blushes, and sent it flymn; through the air. It spinned like a top, an T'll st up the cham— cigars if the plu didn't land right on the speakers' stand. Then it was given another whirl and another and another and fifty others, but it finally came back to Joe. But it then looked like the hat his father never vore, because such a hat was never scen before and never will be seon again outside o glass case, bocause Joc is going to put it up in a bevelled plate glass repository and boqueath it to other gencrations like the fire hats of the late lamented Barney Shannon. Here's my car." Councilman Lowry—Yes, I did haul up a “mysterious” package from the state to the galle It was a parcel from a delegate from Maine. When T took the paper off [ found the parcel was empty. Hugh Mnrphy returned in a cutaway he had borrowed from Jim Creighton and pres- ented a spectacle seen only in fairyland and seldom there, either. He had staked his sack suit upon Frances' being nominated vice prosident and lost. As a consequence, he was sour and would vouchsafe the in- formation that he was ladies' man first and always. ; Jim Creighton—I didn't bring my gray single-stepper to St. Louis, but if I had, Mr. Cleveland would have ridden him—if he had been there. . Dr. Bear of Norfolk rushed through the city in a hack last night on his way home. His hat was white, his face was white, but his face wasn't it. A small portmonnaie was strapped over his shoulder. It con- tained his declination as a candidate for marshal because he felt that Jim North was the preferred mortal. The declination was in polyglot rhyme with a picture of Dr. Kel- ley’s new asylum, after the manner of a Donnelly-Shakespearean_cipher inctuded. Councilman Snyder—I visited the soap factories in St. Louis. 1 found them unob jectionable. Smell that 'kerchief. That was perfumed by a cake of soap L got at one of the institutions. Councilman Ford—I didn't own the train. I didn’t keep the boys awake all night. Tt the guilty conscience of a prohibitionist iich was exhibited in his snores in one end of the cal One of the Excursionists—That night on the train was never equalled in the experi ence of the most thorough convention-wo The man who tried to sleep was considered a lunatic, not because the crowd did not know what are the advantages of rest, but simply because the majority of them had made up their minds to have none of it themselves and had equally determined that no person should do otherwise than they did. There was everythizg on board to aid the objectors in their determination, except a cannon. In the absence of that robust-lunged instrument an anvil had been improvised out of a pair of linch-pins with sundry people at di- vers, notably Pat Ford “acting as Ds. When the anvil chorus began, which it did at the slightest provocation, sheol was raised and kept in position until the martial inhab- itants tired of it, only to rencw it howev when they felt a return of their physical en i In this way we entered the sinful y of St. Louis and we haven't yet recov- ered our sanctity. Another Delegate—But say, the funniest thing of the whole convention, both in going to and returning from the same, was Pat Fora's speech to the Tammany delegates. Pat was full of enthusiasm, which means a great deal. He was also full of and conducted himself y as if he had been a del- er pow-wow. Facing the braves of New York, Mr. Ford said: *‘Gen- tlemen of Tammany Hall: I am delighted to meet you, I was a great admirer of your late lamented leader, John Kelly, I consid- ered him the greatest potitical organizer this country ever knew. And, gentlemen, I am proud to say | am the John Kelly of Omaha.” "The applause was deafening, but it was oo much for me, and I had to leave. FIRE AND POLICK. Both Depar s Increased—Leaves of Absence for Officers. Few matters came up for consideration by the fire and police commissioners last night. William Hudson and John C. Wizzard were appointed to the police force, Their salaries will be $80 per month, but if needed longer thau two months they will receive the regu- lar salary of patrotmen.

Des Moines Wins From St. Paul, Mil- waukee Defeats Kansas City and Minneapolis Outplays St. Louis—Sporting News. Western Association Standing. For the period of twenty four hours—nc- curately timed by the clock on the tower of the Commercial National bank, the veteran time piece that counts the passing minutes in the region of the base ball bulletin boards— for just one calendar day Omaha led the Western association teams. Local enthus- iasts were happy in the belief that we had reached the top notch and were going to stay there; Des Moines had been vanquished by the tail enders and had started a losing streak; Omaha bad. battled with Milwaukee and had struek « running gait. But the cal- culations of the aforesaid enthusiasts were knocked higher, than Gilderoy's kite, for Des Moines , took the next two games from the Flour City’s, and to more completely de- stroy the calculations of the aforesaid en- thusiasts Omnha dropped the two final games to the very good ball players of the brewery town. But then we end the week just where we have énded it every week so far— Des Moines first; Omaha second, and the rest in the order as on last Sunday. Right here we may add the information that the four northern teams are playing good ball, and it's nobody’s game until the last man is out—vide yesterday’s results.

Omaha 2, Chi Cuicaco, June 9.—[Special Telegram to Tue Bee.]—The noted Omaha team won from the Maroons to-day in a pitcher’s game, wherein Sprague, mainly because Umpir Hagan was deadly off in his judgment of the directions Lumer’s eccentric curves turned directly across the plate and were called Dalls. It was the first exhibition of distinctly bad upiring that has yet been given here in any westorn association games. That is say- mg & good deal for umpiring, but it is no more than just, Pessenden’s work here, es- pecially 1 the dificult task of correctly calling balls and strikes, has mever been oxcelled, and was in refreshing contrast to the miserable displays of league umpires. Hagan, too, has been very good up to yesterday. The pitch- ing was too much for the batters, Three hits were made from Lovett, one of which was a scratch. Six were made from Sprague, two of which were scratches. Lovett was really hit the hardest, as the Omahas caught seven long field flies, while only one went out td & Maroon flelder.

The game was a pitcher's battle from the start in which Smith had a shade the best of it. Neither of the two two-base hits credited to Des Moines would have been safe had the outrield been in condition, the wud in center and left fields near the fence being ankle deep. The new grounds are rather small and it will be next to impossible to get wore than & two-base hit iuside the fence. The grand stand is provided with folding opera chaws and the appointments for the comfort of spectators are first class About one hundred and fifty ladies were present. The score St. Paul. ...

A few peculiarities were noticed, how- ever; for instance, every one of them, field- ers included, wore gloves and chest-protect- ors. Another peculiarity was that they never attempted *to slide,” of course it would be asking 100 much to request them to perform o feut of that kind, because “‘they ain't built that way you know.” theless those dudes piayed good ball he well-wishers of the home team wi down-hearted in the first part of the game, but after Lieutenant Wilkins stepped into the box the tables woere turned and it may be truthfully stated that the fort is indebted to him for th tory.
