Sardou’s “‘Spiritisme."—The Lafayette Square Opera House will have a theatri- cal attraction next week that is calcu- lated to draw exceptionally large audiences and to excite an unusual amount of com- ment and discussion. A new Sardou play 1s always an event, and his latest drama, “Spiritisme,” which is the play that will be offered, may be considered doubly so on account of its striking originality of story and treatment. M. Sardou has been a believer in spiritualism for very many years, and has boldiy seized upon spiritual- istic phenomena as an aid in developing a love story of absorbing interest. It deals with the love affair of a beautiful, erring wife, whose husband is a scientist, and a believer in spirits and mediumistic pow = She elopes with a young Creole, is reported to have been killed in a railroad accident and is brought back to her forgiving hus- band’s arms and love through his faith in spiritualism. It is a powerful story and 1s handled with the dash, dramatic force- fulness, brilliancy of dialogue, which are characteristic of the famous French dra- matist. The company engaged to present this play includes, among others, Maurice Barrymore, J. H. Gilmour, Wm. F. Owen, fheodore Roberts, Charles Harbury, George H. Fernie, Milton Lipman, George Howard, Edwin Warren, Robert Holland, Victor Mocre and Virginia Harned, Olive L. Oliver, Margaret Robinson, Blanche Bur- ton and Louise Brooks. The sale of seats begins tomorrow morning. Wilton Lackaye.—Considerable interest has been manifested in the coming engage- ment cf Wilton Lackaye, one of the most popular of American actors, and his “‘all star cast” in ‘Dr. Belgraff” at the New National Theater next week. The succ es achieved by Mr. Lackaye are well known, particularly his creation of Svengali in “Trilby.” The play is somewhat similar to that of ‘“Trilby,” as hypnotism is the subject on which it is based. It is said that the author, Charles Klein, who also wrote the book of “El Capitan” and “Heartease,” has given it a treatment that is unconventionaleand forcible in story and situations, and the company supporting Mr. Lackaye fs the strongest that has ever been organized, excepting that of the “ali star cast” which presented ‘The Rivals” last spring. Marie Wainwright, one of the most artistic of American actresses, 1s the leading lady. Alice Evans, who has played the principal parts with numerous Hoyt productions; Grace Mae Lamkin, a talented artist; that much loved stage vete- ran, C. W. Couldock; Forest Robinson, one of the best of heroic actors; Joseph Allen, Byron Douglas, J. W. Rennie and Edwin Wallace have important roles. Particular attention has been given to the presenta- tion and scenic effects, ang a performance of unusual excellence is assured. Mr. Lackaye and company will undoubtediy at- tract large and fashionable audiences. “Shamus O'Brien."— Columbia Theater will present to Washingtonians next Mon- y night one of the latest London 1 New York successes in the line of romantic opera, “Shamus O’Brien.” It comes direct from London, laier from Broadway Theater, New York, with the en- lire original cast, scenery and costumes. ‘There will be a grand chorus of sixty voice and an orchestra of twenty-five talente musicians. The story of the opera is tak from the well-known poem of the name. The libretto has been arrange George H. Jessop. and Dr. C. Villicrs Sa ford composed the score. Shamus O'Rri has been outlawed and a squad of soldie has been sent for him: a rejected lov “hamus’ wife, Mike Murphy, tells a sc ing party of his whereabouts, and captured; he is sentenced to deata, but through the aid cf a friend he es: the death cart and imakes for the In a short time Mike and a dozen ers are in hot pursuit and the informer in an endeavor to catch the fleeing man is shot and killed, and in the excitem from hills. h follows Shamus ma eseap he cast includes Mr. Denis ni late of the Cari Rosa Grand Cc y; Mr. Joseph O'Mara, of nglish Opera Company and also t Garder Mr. Reginald Rob- ingham, Miss Lucey ._ sistel rnaré Shaw, the > of the London Saturday Re- and author of “Arms and the Man: Annie Roberts, Miss Augusta Schiller and others. ‘The sale of seats open the bex office tomorrow morning. “Girl Wanted."—"Girl Wanted,” which one of the conspicuous comedy succe: the current on, will be the att nat the Academy of Music next w It will be presented by a splendid company, and will be up to date in every respec is of Bush, the inimitable mimic and ecmedian, is still at the head of the peny, and the play gives him ample for the exhibition of his versat during the action he masquerade: less than seven different personage! of them being females, a German du and a prima donna. highly _divertin s New York flat building, and rous people are involved with him action of the pie: New son. brilliant specialties and the ieas are notable tlon. “The Man-o'-War's Man."—It that all the world loves a lover. a fact that all the world loves Therefore, when you combine the qualities of love and heroism in one single individual you have the character in whom the pub- lic takes an extraordinary interest. Such of lu- the is it is also a hero. a fact a character is Capt. Jack Conway, the dashing hero of Thomas E. Shea's new “The Man-o'-War's+Man.” He is a on whom it is said the ladies in the audience fall willingly in love with, while the inale contingent is lost in admiration of his manly, vigorous personality. Con- way is the central figure in a great many thrilling situations which give him a chance to show a bravery and a gallantry never before surpassed by any hero, or sinary, raval or military. In every eet he has several hairbreadth escapes, in all of which he shows a coolness and a courage that bring forth loud applause from th udience. In the hands of Mr. Shea the character vested with a life nality that hi from the critics. Elinor of Jack Conway ts in- a vigor and an origi- won unstinted praise The hero is in love with Denleigh, who is also known as Marandoff, the notorious Russian The action of the play commences at the new Army and Navy Club of New York city, where Conway, disguised as a Frenchman, obtains possession of a secret of great importance to the American gov- ernment. Thence the action of the play passes to Honolulu, and from that place to Sebastopol, where Jack gets arrested and confined in a dungeon, from which he es- eapes with the ald of Vera, after a scene of great excitement. The scene of the con- cluding act of the play is at Nicaragua, where the audience behold a realistic naval battle between the United States ship New Orleans and the Spanish vessel Scorpion. The ships can be plainly seen in the har- bor, firing at each other, thelr cannon booming and real smoke ascending. By de- grees the Scorpion ts crippled by the well- rected shots from the New Orleans. Her masts topple over, and finally the vessel herself sinks beneath the waves, while the gallant New Orleans receives loud applause from the audience, Mr. Shea is supported this year by a stronger company than ever before. He will be ‘seen in this city at the Grand Opera House next week. Bijou Theater.—At the Bijou next week the attraction will be Stowe’s colossal ag- gregation of fifty white and twenty colored artists producing that famous old-time drama, ‘Uncle Tom's Cabin.” That the company is larger, stronger and better than ever before in its history of existence is borne out by the reception accorded it by press and public alike wherever pro- duced. Of the many Scenic effects may be mentioned the grand transformation and tableaux, of which there are many; a gi- gantic cotton press in full operation; Mis- sissipp! river steamers in motion; the land- ing and unloading of a cargo of cotton; the great levee scene, introducing two immense quartets and twenty jubilee shouters; the comical pickaninnies at work and play, and many lifelike pictures of southern life that seem to transport one back to the sunny land of cotton and flowers. A parade at noon with two brass bands, followed by a free band concert, is also ene of the many special features. A daily matinee will be given. Sam T. Jack's Company.—The attraction at the Lyceum next week will be Sam T. Jack's Adamless Eden Company. This ex- travaganza organisation is Mr. Jack’s lat- est venture, and if half that is said in its praise be true, it is the best achievement | he has yet made. There will be a pretty Tromance outlined and embellished in bur- Iggque. The elements of farce comedy, melodrama and good variety will all be given free latitude. Handsome women by the score will exhibit their merry faces and captivating figures. Chery comedians will spring good jokes that have brought equal mirth in other cities, and a splendid series of living pictures will furnish artistic di- version.~ During the performance an excel- lent olio will be made a prominent feature. ‘There are thirty members in the company, and every one contributes his or her share THE BUILDING TRADES COUNCIL, to the pleasure of the:entertainment. Heartsease.—Henry- [Miller closes his long and brilliant engagement in the new ro- mantic comedy “Heartgease” at the Gar- den Thea:er, New Werk, next Saturday night. It has enjoyed a prosperous metro- politan run of nearly three months. It will shortly be seen at the! Columbia Theater, this clty, with the original New York com- pany and production. ; As Eric Temple, Henry Miller bears a striking resemblance to Mozart, in his youth, when he was con- sidered one of the handsomest men of his time. The resembiance is particularly worth noting from the! fact that Mr. Mil- ler's part is that of a young musical com- Controversies Over the Employment of Non-Union Men.
