"THE MIKADO" at the Castle Square Theatre has taken Boston by storm. On the opening night, at 7.50 o'clock, there was a line of ticket purchasers that stretched from the north box office window around the corner and as far as the stage door on Chandler street. Many have been turned away this week, the house being unable to accommodate all who wanted to see this presentation of Gilbert and Sullivan's masterpiece. A better production of "The Mikado" was never given in Boston, and of the 22 operas produced by the Castle Square company, none has been more merry and entertaining than "The Mikado."

Mr. Wooley in the title role took every one by storm. The part is often looked upon as a secondary one and kept in the shadow of the others, but there was no keeping the mimic ruler of Japan in the shade last night, as seven recalls to his first song (and laugh testified.

Miss Davis scored the biggest kind of a hit. Her make-up was a study and her acting was a treat. She made the most of every opportunity, and was more in her element than in any role she has yet assumed. Her scenes with the Mikado and Ko-Ko were received with roars of laughter, while her singing was greatly applauded.
