NEW SCENERY.
Br kind permission of Captain Reid we were'permitted to see the new' scenery beingspecially painted for the final proiuction of I'Tho'Ticket-of-Leave Man"f by a •'prominent scenic artist." The scenes are certainly fine specimens of the stige artist's handicraft, the. picture depicting,,a ,wellknown street in Sheffield beineJxcßptipn-{ ally good and'very realistic. Also', a forest' scene, used in laying/out the Bellevuß Gardens in the first Vet, '}& faithfully.represented; and 'when mou'nted with all the" numerous accessories, should not fail to elicit the warmest encomiums from the audiof .country settlers, who were debarred from w ormance' pwinp[;to> the,exceptionally wet. night, that Captain Reid, the Company's mhiiaiterv Ka^iJecided'; to repeat this stirring should advise all those who have notyet witnessed this unique play to take advantage of thislast, opportunity, as Captain .Reid informs us that the scenery will be altered to makeroom for new scenes to be used in connecV' tion,with; a new'dramathat heha'sgotin hand, consequently;he will'not again stage fThe Tickct-of-Leave Man;', in Hamilton. A powerful limelight will be brouajHt into requisition to ;mak'e a number cf beautiful' and stnkini? tableaux-at; the 5 tend of each act. Should the ni«ht prove fine, a crowded house should be the, result, -jast to, .show* that i the 1 public ; th6rouEhly appreciate theHamilton. Amateur Dramatic Companys labours in Woing dramas of themagnitude of; "The Tipket.of.Mve Man.' before y Waikato audience. - ! ' '
