L. Wagner Lee I All who saw the production of Queen Esther here two years ago under the direction of Mr Robinson pronounced it the best musical en tertainment ever given by the Ban doh singers, but the comic opera Pinafore which they are preparing and will give in the opera house Fri day and Saturday evenings of tills week will far surpass the former production in every way. The music of Pinafore is of that high and catchy style which is always so pleasing to an audience anil there is enough dialogue and comedy in it to make it of interest to all who are n it esp dally interested in music. The local singers have entered into the spirit of the opera and have care fully prepare I all the details to make it most pleasing. Special scenery will be used mak­ ing the stage represent a typical English man-of war of the period represented and the costumes are neat and natty, representing the typical comic opera scenes and set tings, so pleasing to the ordinary audience. The piano accompaniement will be especially attractive when rendered by Mr. Carl Moore in his own in­ imitable manner. Following is a synopsis of the opera and a a list of the ones taking part: The Right Hon. Sir Joseph Por ter, K. C. B. First L nd o' Admirality.............. E. B.
