The Lambardls finished their en gagement here last night with a well staged and realistic presentation of Puccini's "La Boherae," and although the attendance waa not aa large as pre vious sights. It was satisfactory both In enthusiasm and slse. The opera waa well sung, on the whole, although the chorus more than once displayed a tendency to drag In keeping time with the rendition of the difficult music. Portlaad Likes "La Bohrme." La.
