Collet-Dobson Company.

IOn Saturday and Monday the above company appear at the Public Hall. The play of Current Cash is billed for Saturday, and the Lady of Lyons for Monday. In Current Cash there are several striking situations, and Mr Collet-Dobson talcfs the leading role, that of Captain Milton. Mr Pobson is favourably known here as a oapable and versatile actor and the character is bound to be well pourtrayed. Mr H. N. Douglas takes the part of Major Gordon Challis, the heavy vilian, who becomes an object of hatred to the audience. Mr Ingleson takes the comic character, the Rev. Lincoln Green, and makes the most of it. Miss ISrepe Thornton takes the character of Grace Milton,- the wife of Captain Milton, and ha? plenty of opportunities to display her power as an actress of acknowledged merit. Miss Fanny Wiseman represents Delia Challis, and Miss Violet Andrew, Sybil. With such a piece and snch a company, the public may anticipate a most enjoyable evening. It is not so long since Mr Dobson and most of the company were round here and won golden opinions by their high class performances, so it is unnecessary for us to do more than recommend those, who are fond of good acting, to attend.
