Although laboring under manifest dlsad-
Tantagcs , the ladies who had the "Bon Hur"

Mrs. Broatch , may ell feel repaid for their
olTorts lu tbo cause of sweet charily through
tbo excellence of the entertainment , an ex

the amateur circles of the city. It showed
what could bo done by intelligent , well di

part of tuoio participating to make tbo
affair in every way n BUCOOSS It
was our first glimpse of a really meritorious
nmatour production , and wont far toward
allaying a growing feeling that Omaha
was sadly duliciout in amateur tal
ent. Omaha has had excellent amateur per
formances lu the past , but only by casts
UmUod a.s to numbers nnd choicn for their
general excellence. There were nearly 150
people appearing , llttlo and big , aud ,
without so much as a single hitob , a
magnificent series of tableaux were presented
of General Wallace's beautiful story of tha
Christ. The Ilttlo folks quite carried off the
honor of iho production , for iholr danocb
were quite up to some of tbo ballot perform
ances wo have been treated to by profes
sional companies , and withal they were most
charmingly modcsl , a vlriuo ihat cannot bo
overesllnmted. *
