VwdsnnLisd:sn:r;siedOpera House Improved,The enterprising managers of the opera house, Messrs. Prevatte Tonge, are arranging to greatly improve it, both in point of beauty and comfort, beginning of the next theatrical season.On account of the small stage and low ceiling most of the big companies who carry their own scenery have been deprived of showing here in the past. These detects are remedied. The ceiling will be raised considerably and the front of the stage made broader and higher, so that the largest and best shows on the road can be ac* commodated.Mr. J. R. McNair, an expert scenic painter of Denver, is now at worx here on the drop curtains He is reputed to be a very skillful artist and his work on the curtains will be watched for with interest. Theater goers have gazed upon the impossible nymphs and distorted cherubs engaged in the de iightful pasttime “swinging in the grape vine swing” ad nauseam and will no doubt enthusiastically wel come a change of scenes. The work will be completed early in April, and then perhaps some summer attractions will be put on.The season that has just closed has been a very successful one, both in attendance and the high class attractions that have showed here. The managers should be congratulated on their success and their discretion in their selections. We have had better troupes, as a whole, this winter than ever be fore. They have now established their reputation for having good shows only, which will next season assure them a good attendance and the theater goers of good at' tractions.Gthechelt;soncanvictrestgimneelintwehenHewhlt;Ceiglbeeforfrorwasa sied 1canolinThpaiHotthfcloditthfliebriSOIdiestr
