No title has been selected as yet. It is safe to predict that the opera will be worthy of the elaborate production Klaw & Erlan- ger intend to give it, since the as- sociation of Mr. Herbert and Mr. Blossom in the past has been particu- larty happy. They were responsible for “Mile, Modiste,” “The Red Mi!i,” “Princess Pat" and ‘The Only Girl.” DILLINGHAM GETS ANOTHER. Charles Dillingham has acquired § g i | A NEGRO OTHELLO.
