The dramatic club is now rehearsing a light oomedy, which will, in all probability, be produoed at the opera house some time during the season. The leading parts will be taken by the well known members of the club, and wilLbe all that could be asked for. The dub is now in a very successful condition, both as asocial organisation and as a dramatic school. Much interest is taken in the work by the members, and the pleasure derived therein certainly pays for the expended energy.
It is understood that Mrs. Allyn Adams Is writing a light opera which she, as well ss her friends, is desirous ot bringing out in the near future. It will be an original composition throughout in both music and words. Mrs. Adams ability ss a musician is well known and her acquaintance with all the local singers will enable her to so compose her solos, duets, etc., that will show |the voices to be included in the presenting company to the very best advantage. It was desired to produce the opera before Christinas, but una voided delays in the composition will make this impossible.
