AT THE HEILIG. The hopes o f a generation which first witnessed the produc tion of the series o f operettas by Gilbert & Sullivan, and who have since mourned the decay of that golden age of the stage, will be cheered by the news of the en gagement of the Gilbert & Sul livan Festival Company from the Casino theatre, New York, which includes DeWolf Hopper, Blanche Duffield, Eugene Cowles. George MacFarlane, Kate Condon, Ar thur Aldridge, Viola Gillette, Ar thur Cunningham. Alice Brady, Louise Barthel and the New York Casino chorus and orchestra which is to lie made at the lleilig theatre for one week, beginning Sunday, September 1st, during which time “ The Mikado” will be presented on Sunday, Monday and Saturday nights and at the Saturday matinee; “ The Pirates of Penzance” on Tuesday and Friday nights; “ Pinafore” at the Wednesday matinee and on Wednesday night and “ Patience” for a single time only on Tlltirs day night. ll was in 1875 that W.

They were grateful to the ear and eye and mind of persons of all ages. Sul- | I ¡van’s tunes were sung anil whis tled everywhere, and Gilbert’s [songs and dialogues became household words and were re written and parodied, more wide ly than even Kipling’s worst music-hall contribution. . r bear to the Milwaukee road can- not at this time be said.
