But M'lle Held didn't come to Omaha alone; no. Indeed, for the it accompanied by at fine a looking lot of playert at one would wish to see, an J their team work it tuperb, If not more. The "Sadie girl" rush line has effaced all mem ories of "pretty maiden" choruses and the like, and -the fencere don't need follt to pierce hearts. And then four comic opera comedians of the first rank assist In the fun-maklng and the tinging, and add not a little to the general enjoyment of the whole affair.

The climax of the piece came last night at the close of the second act, when the sang an Inspiriting drinking aong with chorus. Nine curtain callt rewarded thlt very at tractive bit, nor would the applauae, which ran from boxet to gallery, be ailenced until M'lle Held had come to the footrlghtt and briefly but enthusiastically expressed her thanks. She may be proud of that recep tion, for It waa one seldom accorded a comic opera star In Omaha. Mesan. Herbert, Dorand.
