THEATRICAL. Daniels as "The Ameer." "Tho Ameer," the opera In which Frank Daniels will this season cause people to smile and forget their trouble, had its first presentation on any stngo at tho Lyceum last night before an audience that taxed tho capacity of the house and was as re sponsive and enthusiastic as It wiu large. It was the unanimous verdict that "The Ameer" wilt be one of the successes of the present theatrical sea son. The buok was written by Frederic Hanken and Klrke LaShello, Mr. Dan iels' manager, and very clever It Is, The story is novel and Interesting and the dialogue crisp and bright. Victor Herbert did the musical end of the opera so well that almost every num ber sung last night called forth an en core. With each succeeding opera Her bert seems to more thoroughly catch the spirit of light opera. The score of "The Ameer" is one of his most brilliant efforts. He occupied one of the boxes at the Lyceum last night and heard his opera sung. Across the house In another box were Messrs. Hanken and LaShelle. At the end of tho second net there was a loud and clamorous demand for Dan iels, and when the comedian came be fore tho curtain he was given a splen did ovation. He bowed his thanks nnd 'pointing to the box where Herbert was modestly hid away behind the dra peries, said, "That's the man you want, I guess." Then the audience turned their attention to Herbert and Danlel3 made good his escape. The composer stood up In the box and bowed his ac knowledgements of the ovation, but de clined to say anything. Mr. Daniels has the assistance of a fine company and probablv the best chorou.t ever heard on the stage of the Lyceum. The leading me mbcrs of the company nre Helen Redmond. Norma Kopp, Kate Uart. Will Danforth, George Devoll, William Corliss and W. F. Hochester. Tho opera is staged and costumed in an exceptionally ar tistic manner. The blending of colors In the groupings of the principals and chorus during the three acts was truly beautiful. For a first production the opera moved with unusual smoothness. On account of the elaborate nature of the scenery nnd the consequent de lays between acts the performance was not over until 11.30 last night. The story of the operni Is as follows: The Ameer of Afghanistan has been made to realize that uneasy lies the head that wears a crown. An annual tax of one million rupees levied by the British government has forced him to the ex Ircmo of marrying eacb year a wealthy wife, whose; dower helps him over this tax reef. He has been very successful In this matter for ten cars but at last has exhausted the native supply, and bis Chamberlain lias now had to contract for an American heiress, who is to bo his eleventh victim. For ten ycaiM Itetrotluii day has been an established institution, and on this chosen day not only the Ameer, but all of his subjects must be formally betrothed or wait a whole year. The American bride has been delayed and Is expected to arrive on Uetrothal day, when the opera opens. This is tak ing a greater risk than tho Ameer rel ishes, uu ho will bo unable to pay tho million rupees unless he gets his bride's dower, and if it Is not paid the military representative of the Hrltish government will depose the Ameer, cast him into a dungeon and assume control of the gov erntnuit. Added to all thl?, tho Ameer has a brother who Is a pretender to tho throne, and this ungrateful relative has tried In every way to have the Ameei murdered. Ho has hired the royal cook to poison him. which ended In the hanging of tho cook. He has employed other persons to shoot him, tho result being to cripple a bystander, nnd In numerous ways ho ha3 laid traps for tho Ameer, which, though unsuccessful, have so terrorized the Ameer that ho Is afraid to go out of his palaco nnd fears for his life even there. In order to Increase his revenues tho Ameer has commissioned tho Chamberlain to organlzo nnd operato a crimes bureau, under tho firm name of Cut & Slash, and has placed a brigand chief, Hlakjak, In chargo ns manager. The Chamberluln leanu that a large shipment of gold on its way to the Viceroy of India Is to pass through the mountains, and sum mons Illakjnk to meet him and receive In structions. Illukjak takes tho order nnd confides In the Chamberlain, whom ho knows only as "Mr. Slash," that he has secured a commission for n piece of work that will make them all rich. He has been employed by tho Ameer's broth. er to assassinate the Ameer, and Is to re ceive therefor 5.000,000 rupees, which will enable them to retire from business. This nearly floors tho Chamberlain, who can't tell Blakjuk that he' has taken a commission to murder his own employer. The American bride, Constance, nr rlves Incognito with her friend, Fnnny, both being disguised ns boys. Constnnco has known and fallen In love with Halph, tho military reprc sentntivo of the Ilritish government at the Ameer's court, while Italph was In America a year before, and has only apparently fallen In with her mother's plan to have her marry the Ameer In order that she might seo Halph. However, Italph, who has heard of her engagement to the Ameer, believes her fnhe. Among the eligible candidates for queenly honors is Mlrzah, who Is very rich, but whom tho Chamberlain wants for himself, and to that end has kepi her orr the Ameers list. Mlrzah Is des perately in love with the Ameer and has been for years, but finds her devotion Ignored. Because of her passion for tho Ameer and becauso of his love for Con stance, Italph and Mlrzah plan to pre vent the Ameer's betrothal to tho Ameri can girl by hnvlng Illukjak abduct her and hold her prisoner until Uetrothal day has passed. Tho Ameer has seen Illak jnk ithough himself unseen) and con ceives a tremendous admiration for him. This gives him an Idea. Since It isn't safe for him to go about In his own proper person for fear of assasHlnatlon, ho de termines to disguise himself as a fierce brigand and so and bo In with tho cap ture of the vlteroy'H gold. Just as a little practice he terrorizes his subjects In his brigand get-up. anil while he Is chasing them ubout with knife and pis tol, and they are shrieking for protection, Illnkjak coinis on, takes the Ameer for a rival In business and seizes him ns his prisoner. Mlrzah, who Is not deceived by tho disguise, makts known to the Cham beilalu who the bad brigand Is; but slnro the Ameer Is In the clutches of Illnkjak, who is yearning to find and as sosslnate the Ameer, he cannot rescue him, and at tho (.lose of the first net the Ameer Is carried away to the forest by Blakjuk hh a prisoner. Tho second net Ifc In the brigand's homo In the forest, and tho Ameer Is made tho bport of the brlgunds, who permit him to think ho Is about to ebcapo only to re cupturo him. This cat and mouse game gives tho Ameer u lively time, and ho finally agrees to Join tho brigands. Mlr zah and Ralph coino to Fee the capture of the American girl, and Ualph Icarim . of tho attempt to be made to capture thu viceroy's gold. Ho stations his soldiers near to frustrate this nttempt. Constance nnd Fanny appear on, tho scene, Con stance being eager to find Ilnlph nnd ex plnln tho seeming falsity of her engage ment to the Amcci. Illnkjak and Italph meet Constance nnd Fanny, and tho rec ognition of Constance by Italph reveals tho fact that tho two apparent boys are girls. lllakjak falls In love with Fanny. Tho Chambeiinln arrives Just ns tho brigands nro about to Initiate tho Ameer us a new member of tho band, and Favea him from n knife throwing ordeal by announcing that the prisoner Is their employer, Mr. Cut. Tho gold train Is sighted and tho brigands Insist on being led to tho fray by tho Ameer. Tho eapturo Is effected und the gold brought on, and tho soldiers under Ilnlph attack the camp, capture tho brigands nnd their stolen gold. Itnlph recognizes tho Amccr, and the Ameer finds It necessary to Juggle rather skill fully to keep his Identity as tho Ameer from being known to Illnkjak and his connection with the brlgnnds unknown to Itnlph. Tho third art Is In the throne room of tho palace, on tho night of Uetrothal day. The American brltlo has not ar rived, nnd tho Ameer Is much exercised, ns the Ilritish officer, Halph, hns served notice that unless the tax Is pnld by mldnbtht. he will seize the palace and put tbo Ameer In a dungeon. Tho Ameer. Induces his court fool to exchange cos tumes with him and rule In his stead for a few hours, and when Italph demnnils the million rupees or tho person of tho Ameer, tho fool snenks away and resumes his fool costume This puts two fools in evidence, and Halph demands to know which Is the Ameer. Mlrzah, to whom all disguises nro futile, appears and Inno cently betrays the Ameer, who then faces tho situation. He determines to get even In the few minutes that remain und Is about to behead tho Chamberlain, when Mlrzah, who In despair at winning tho Ameer hns accepted tho Chamber lain, pleads for his life. The Chamber lain tells the Ameer that Mlrzah Is rich and offers to resign her to him and thus save him. Tho Ameer occepts nnd begins to speak tho Irrevocable betrothal. Tho Chamberlain rushes on, dragging Con stance, whom hu hir discovered to tie the American bride, and endeavors to slop the Ameer In time, but the Ameer finishes the betrothal and Constance Is mfe lllakjak Is pardoned nnd Fanny undertakes to reform him, and Halph and Constance ore happily paired, tho Ameer being content with Mlrzah ami his throne. The opera will be Wilkes-Ilarre tonight. produced at "The Sleeping City." One of the A. Q. Scammon melo dramas, "The Sleeping City," opened a three days' engagement at the Acad emy of Music last evening, before a good-sized house.

Clark; the boxing nnd acrobatic sketch of tho Fantas; the dancing nets of Walt Terry and Nellie Rimer; nnd the performance of John H. Harty, the ec centric Juggler. Miss May 11. Thorn- dyke, the vivacious soubrette. also won much applause by her rendition of coon songs. The star number, however, was given by Margaret Itosn and Vera Harto nnd the Dutch pickaninnies.
