The play abounds in bright, crisp dialogue, plenty of good com- edy, strong dramatic situations and ex- citing climaxes. As a production it will be equal to any that will be presented here this season. Manager Jacob Litt has [and electrical effects. |lar burlesque, entitled “The | of the Strand J jin hi | Brummell” mounted the play in his usual lavish style, and the company engaged include a number of well-known players. One big scene of the play shows Madison square, New York, and the Hoffman House on the night of an election, and is said to be one of the most animated and realistic scenes ever shown in melodrama, requiring the presence of over one hundred people on the stage. A political parade with brass bands, fire- works, transparencies and noise combine to form ore of the most effective stage pic- tures ever witnessed. The company en- gaged to present this splendid play is one of the best ever seen in a production of the drama, including such well-known artists as Agnes Herndon, James Lackaye, Lena Merville, Herbert Cawthorn, Susie Forres- ter, J. B. Cooper, Mildred St. Pierre, L. R. Willard, Anna Cumberland, Albert A. An- drews and others. Grand Opera House.—An American play that is bound to take first rank among new offerings is Thomas H. Davis and William T. Keogh’s elaborate production of “Fallen Among Thieves,” Frank Har- latest and greatest comedy drama, h comes to the Grand Opera House next Monday. It will be given with new and beautiful scenery, intricate and novel mechanical effects and a highly efficient cast. It is a story of country and city life. The scenes are laid in Vermont and in New York. characters seem like old friends. All New England and the metrop- olis have met their counterparts. “Fallen Among Thieves” is a strong and novel rlay, with numerous stirring situations and realistic embellishments, which seldom fail to win the favor of an audience. It tells a powerful story in a humorous and Fetic way, and introduces several novel ects, the most sensational of which is a woman's daring headlong dive from the top ef High oridge, New York, into the Harlem river, in order to save the drown- ing heroine. ‘There are many interesting types of character Introduced, all round- cut skillfully by the dramatist. This play ts said to be one of the strongest and mcst realistic pictures of the pas- sions that stir men’s souls jn the every day walks of life that has ever been pre- Lyceum Theater._The Famous London Gaiety Girls Burlesque Company will be Manager Kernan’s attraction at thé Ly- jceum for next week, and one of the best, brightest and gayest of burlesque enter- tainments may be contidently anticipated. is crganization is splendidiy equipped ith every essential of a successful show, two romantic and cleverly written farces, high-class specialties, pretty girls by the score and a wealth of magnificent scenery The olio, which ts includes Miss Rolla White, the ackuowledged female cham- pon bag puncher of the world. Miss White has become so perfect in the ma- nipulation of the punching bag, having above the average, | appeared with such marked success before many scholastic critics of the art, that she is preparing to challenge the winner ef the Corbett-Fitzsimmons fight to a sci- entific bag punching contest. Other fea- tures of the olio are the three Herbert | Brothers, acrobatic marvels; the Chap- pellg Sisters, sensational dancers; Alex Wilscn, premier ventriloquist; Larry Bur- goyhe, the coster singer; Alicote and Wild, the refined comedy duo, and Miss Bertha Brash, the charming vocalist. The per- formance closes with an original spectacu- Tramp Astron- omer,” tn which will be introduced several tery orean novelties. There will be matinecs Tuesday, Thursday and Satur- day. Bijou Theater.—There are no Mansfields, no Roland Ree no Davenports, no Clara Morrises in the Noss Jollity Company who come to the Bijou Fami Theater next week, with nightly performances and four matinees. But there certainly is a lot of clever performers, who entertain with evening of refreshing novelty in the way of a comical and musical performance, whi is truly refreshing ause it is meritoriou ‘1 and more especially because it is a radical departure from the general Tun of theater attractions—a satisfying change, as it were. The company ts made tp of talented musicians, who play on ¥ conceivable instrument, and extract from everything about them, even to the laughs from the audience. This compary. larger and better than ever be- fore, is headed, as usual, by the famous, original No: who have gained a repu- tation as musical comedians, and includes among its members Miss Mignon Carroll, the peerless soubrette and musical artiste: Mr. Frank Noss, one of the best delineators of tramp characters before the public; Mr. Nick Glynn, character artist, and others. There will be a sacred concert at the Bijou tomorrow night, by Dan McCarthy and his clever “Dear Irish Home” Company. Mr. E. S. Willard.—Few English actors have attained so enviable a position in so comparatively short a time as that held by Edward 8. Willard in the esteem of Amer- ican play-goers. The secrets of his success are manifold, but may be traced principally to a distinct individuality and earnestness | of purpose, which, combined with a techni- cal knowledge of his art, and that richest of all attributes, personal magnetism, brings about a very interesting result. Mr. Willard is an actor of wide experience. He is also a man of taste and refinement. The character of his plays and quality of his work show rare conscientiousness. He has done more than perhaps any single actor to demonstrate the possibility of re- taining an ethical basis in the drama without making it dull. He will present at the Lafayette Square Opera House, on Jan- uary 25, a new play, by Henry Arthur Jones, entitled “The Rogue's Comedy.” Richard Mansfield—Mr. Richard Mans- field. who comes to the Lafayette Square Opera Hovse the week commencing Janu- ary 18, is one of ovr American actors, who steadily adds worthy productions of good plays to his repertory, and strives to make his engagemenis worthy of the intellec tual part of the public. This year his | latest additions are revivals of two Shake- spearean plays, “King Richard III,”” with all the elaborate scencry, costumes, armor, ete., with which he preduced that play in | the world-renowned production he made of it in the Globe Theater in London in 1880, and “The Merchant of Venice.” Another new play, and the latest addition to his repertcry, is “ Sombras,” which is a four-act comedy by H. Greenough Smith sazine, London. In addi- tion to this play ‘and the two Shakespear- ean revivals, Mr. Mansfield will give the | other plays which are so familiarly known a which hav proved the strongest cards repertory for several seasons past. Mr. Mansfield always offers an excellent company, and his plays are -always pro- ed with regard to the taste of the most ntelligent play goer and his own work as an actor, which places him far in advance of any other on the American stage. The arrangement of the repertory is as fol- lows: On Monday evening, ‘The Merchant of Venice; on Tuesday evening, “A Paris- jfan Romance.” At the Wednesday matt- nee the new romantic play, “Castle Som- bras,” will be seen for the first time in this city. “King Richard III” will be pre- | sented on Wednesday evening, “Beau on Thursday evening and at the Saturday matinee, “Prince Karl’ on Friday evening, and “Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde” on Saturday evening. Carroll Institute Minstrels.—Next Mon- day evening, January 11, the celebrated Carrol! Institute Minstrels will be seen at the Lafayette Square Opera House in novel production for the benefit of the new Catholic Church to be erected at Mt. Pleasant, and of which Rev. Jos. F. Mc- Gee will be pastor. Mr. George T. Cox, the hystiing manager of the organization, Tromises that this entertainment will eclipse all previous efforts. The stage will be under the direction of Mr. George H. O'Connor, and the dance in the second act, arranged by Mr. Percy F. Leach, will surely make the hit of the evening. Sweet ballads will be sung by Melville D. Hensey, Charles Moore, L. E. Kaiser, George T. Cox and Charles Bechtel, while the ever popular end men—George H. O'Connor, Percy F. Leach, Harry Leigh and Charles Green—will be heard at their best in negro melodies. The irrepressible Billie Cullison will occupy the center of the stage as in- terlocutor. Mr. Ben. Judson, the well- known musical director, has specially ar- ranged all the music for this occasion. Rogers’ Lectures.—The condensed reading of Edward Eggleston’s famous story, “The Hoosier Schoolmaster,” which is to be given by Dr. in the popu- lar lecture course at the Church of Father, has been prepared by Prof. lenbeck.
