...comet was observed on May 17 as its position on that day (.2500 Greenwich mean time) is given as right ascension 7 hours, 53 minutes, 44 seconds declination plus 19 degrees 39 minutes It was described as a fault object visible in a large telescope with a daily motion of 4 minutes of time easterly and 48 minutes of are northerly...
...especially the interpretation that should be praised. J. J. Collier was Beranger--a poetic, gentle Beranger--perhaps a little too "Quakerish", but this is the fault of the author and not of the actor. He was particularly good in his first dialogue with Talleyrand and in the last act. He had in Miss Googins a partner of the first rank.

...applause which it well merited, and the famous waltz motive, redecorated with several sets of new words, kept coming in at appropriate moments throughout the performance. Unfortunately the work of the Choruses, as likewise that of the principals, was often obscured by the loudness of the orchestra,--a fault which prevented the verses from gaining their full recognition. All in all, however, "The Chocolate Soldier" can take its place without fear beside the other musical attractions now running, as was amply attested by its enthusiastic reception before a packed house on Monday night...
