The Henry Dramatic Company commenced its Auckland season on Saturday, the drama staged being ‘Shamrock and Thistle.’ A good house welcomed the players, who represent a fairly strong combination, and have in their repertoire several pieces that ought to secure them a warm reception. The drama with which they once more seek the patronage of the Northern City is a really good one of its class, sensational and emotional to the last degree, and crowded with strong situations. The staging leaves nothing to be asked for, and some of the players, notably Mr Henry, who is capital in his role’ of the Scotch servant, take their parts well. On Tuesday evening the company staged a dramatisation of Onida's ‘Under Two Flags.’

The organist of Knox Church, Parnell (Mr .1. F. Bennett) has been asked to act in a similar capacity nt Holy Trinity Anglican Church, jlevonport, but is unable to accept the post owing to his being only a short time in his present position.
