SHUBERT THEATRE. 
The Messrs. Shubert will present at 
the Shubert theatre, Boston, for a 
limited engagement beginning Mon- 
day next, March 2oth, the greatest 
operatic hit of the century, “Alone at 
Last,” direct from its wonderfully 
successful run of six months at the 
Shubert Theatre, New York. 
Franz Lehar, the composer, has in 
this opera excelled all former efforts. 
Possessing all the melodious beauty 
of his earlier “work, “The Merry. 
Widow,” it surpasses it in the rich- 
ness of harmony and is indeed the 
most brilliant musical offering that 
has ever come from Vienna. In 
keeping with the music is the charm- 
ing and romantic story. 
“Alone at Last” has met with great 
success as “Endlich Allein,’ in Vi- 
enna, Berlin, Rome and Budapest and 
has been generally hailed by critics as 
the most pretentious work Lehar has 
as yet written. 
Anxious Railway Guard (as the 
train stops at the station)—Excuse 
me, Sir; but did you happen to hear 
cries for help as we came along? 
The Young Officer (delighted)— 
Oh, by Jove! Could you.-hear me? I 
was just practising the command 
“Halt !’—Sketch.
