Whltoloy'a Dramatic comp&ny
closed its week's engagement hero Sat
urday evening with the presentation
of "Colleen Lawn , " ono of the beet
of Irish dramas , In which Ida Lewis
appeared In thn tltlo rolo. AD in the
other characlorn , she showed much
true , artistic power. She Is a charm
ing actress , or great versatility , and
has won jnst plaudits ovonlng after
ovoning. The company nupportlng
her In an excellent ono , and their
repertoire BO cxtonalvo that they are
able to glvo a novr and yet pleasing
and meritorious entertainment each
ovoning. .
Every night thn house has been
filled , nnd the audiences have shown
tholr delight by unthuohstlc applauao.
At the popular prices , which scema to
bo a favorite feature of Mr. White-
ley's management , thu people get
much moro than tholr money's worth.
The company left yoetorday for
Lincoln , whore they will remain for
two wookn.
It la to bo regretted that during
their stay here the company bad not
the advantage of a suitable hall , otago
room and scenic effect , to enable thorn
to present their jplaya at tholr beat ,
but considering the fact that they
were thus crippled , they did nobly.
li In to bo hoped that they will re
turn after the now opera house la fin-
iehod , an event which amusement
lovers look forward to with much ex
pectation , they having become tired
and impatient , the present hall
affording hardly any conveniences or
attractions.
