Monticello Pleased With “Happy Heine” Says Journal.

The Monticello Journal contained the following write-up of the “Happy Heinie” show: “There was a good sized crowd at the opera house last night and everybody was pleased with the production of ‘Happy JHeinie.’ The production is a melodrama, with a sufficient plot to keep up interest in the story, and is richly interpolated with a number of catchy and well rendered songs. Mr. Holmes has a sweet voice and his songs were deservedly encored. His wife, who played the part of the abused heroine, is also an accomplished singer and has a most remarkable voice, being able to sing contralto and soprano with equal ease. The company contains some of the best singing voices ever heard in the city. The supporting company was generally good and all in all it was a very meritorious performance. Managed Mathews will win the title of good fellow if he can run in an attraction like that about once a week during the winter. It sure was a happy change in the way of amusement.”

’• The same company will show at Ellis theatre tonight.
