THE SILVER KING.

Wilson Barret’s five-act drama, ‘The Silver King” was pat upon the boards at the Opera House last evening before a large and fashionable audience. ‘The “Silver King” contains considerable of the sensational clement, with a vein of comedy running through it. The sceve is laid in Kngland, and the plot deals with the fortunes of Wilfred Denver whe is com- pelied to flee from bis home to the United States because of a murder which he believes he committed. In the United States Le becomes wealthy, and afier several years absence returns to his home, searches out iis wite and chilaren who have been living in poverty and restores tnem to their old home. By assuming the role ofa ceaf old man Denver obtains access to a thieves den, and there learns the identity of the murderer for wnoze crine he has suffered for years. The murderer is finally arrested, Denver discloses his iden- tity to his wife and all are happy ouce more-

The plot was very well developed last night,, the acting of some of the principal characters being especially good. The pari of Wilfred Denver was cleverly taken by Dr. Murray, acd the partof Nellie, bis wife, was splendidly acted by Miss McEachen. Mr. Frank O’Neill as Et'jah Coombs was also a good impersonation, and Mr. Whitlock, as Jakes, was excellent. Mr. McEachen interpreted the part of Cripps splendidly; and Mr. Munro did very well as the polished villain of the play. The parts taken by Messrs. Mclonis, Brown, and some of the other performers were also well interpreted. Miss Ida Byrne and the other little gnes who took part in the pro-: duction are also deserving of praise. The scene. in which they participated was, perhaps, one of the prettiest features of the play.

The smoothness of the performance was interfered with somewhat by delays in the arrangement of the scenes, and in one or two instances a little more alacrity on the part of the performers would have added to the excellence of the entertainment furnished. But it is difficult to have everything just so in an amateur per- formance,

Between the acts Miss Nora Waddell danced the serpentine dance in a splendid manner, and Vinnicombe’s orchestra dis- coursed some very good music. Inciden- tal to act 4, Mrs. Melvin, of Detroit, sang ** Home, Sweet Home ” very acceptably.

‘Lhe performance was iu aid of the new Cathedral fund, and a snug sum must have been realized.

LETTER FROM DR. TAYLOR.

Sir,—I exceedingly regret to sée “ib yes- terday’s issue of your paper a notice of the performance of an operation “for the removal of a nerve from the bone of the

as a very rare and skilful one.

Advertising operations aod cures’ is deemed scandalous by all honorable medi- cal men, chi¢fly because it is commonly characterized by gross exaggeration. Very frequently operations and cures, easily performed by men of ordinary skill, are represented as very rare and difficult to perform. Ia this way the public is deceived and humbugged.

Our own Medical Council, on behalf of the Society, in a formal] resolution severely condemned this practice. The most painfal part of this present case is the fact that three of the doctors present are mem- bers of tbe Medical Council. The person who’ prompted, this communication has perpetrated a great indignitv on the medi- cal men engaged, of whom I was one, and is bound by the Jaws of honor to give an explanation or make an apology.

Yours, etc., F. P. Taytor.
