B1ppLEs' THEArEn.-This famous

BIDDLES' THEATER.-This famous
troupe continue to give exhibitions OF
their artistic skill on the boards of Turn
er Hall. 1.-THE Hidden Hand, on last
Thursday eye, was, as usual, well rem
dered, Miss Amelia Watts, as Capitola
Black, sustaining her reputation as being
one of the most graceful, pleasing little
actresses on the Western Stage, being
supported by Mr. Ed Clifford as Black
Donald, and J. L. Barrett as Wool, in a
manner that has never been surpassed in
this city.
Our reporter did not attend on Friday
and Saturday evenings, SO are not pre-
pared to make any criticisms on the
plays. From what we heard from those
who did attend, we are led to believe that
the performances was as good as usual.
The announcement being made on Tues
day evening Of the arrival of John Dill
lion in the city had tendency toward
furnishing rather slim houses for the
rest of the week, as it was asserted that
he would play some of his favorite pieces
here the next week. The report was
true, for on Monday evening the hail
was crowded to its utmost capacity to see
and hear John in 1.-THE Serious
Family" and paddy Miles Boy"
Great were the anticipations of the aud
ience, and they were fulfilled, Judging
from the roars of laughter which fairly
shook the building. On that evening
Miss Millie Bridges made her first ap-
pearance, carrying out her role in a
most satisfactory manner, .appropriatlng
some of Miss Watts admiration to her
sell; ;oand she deserves it, having the same
petite appearance of the former young
lady, together with an easy, graceful
motion, becoming her rather fragile
form. Although Dillon was ''King
B." of the occasion, he did not mater
tally lake the shine off of Clifford and
Wood. who have become such favorites
with our theatre going public tina they
won't give them up SO readily Both
financially and artistically, the "Serious
Family" was a success.
On Tuesday evening Everybody s
Friend was to be produced; but the
rain coming down in torrents during most
of the afternoon and evening, there was
no performance at all. s..g
Last night the house was crowded to
witness the two popular plays of Irish
Mesmerism' and ''Old Dams Cabin. +"
John Dillon, as Ragged Pat, Ed. Clifford
as Dan O. Garola,a, j.. Biddles as ,Septi-
mas Stone, John Wood as Mons. Voyage,
j. L. Barrett as Slang and Miss Watts
as lula. seemed to make an extra effort
to please, aud succeeded most admirably,
the frequent applause attesting the ap-
preciation of the audience. 5 D
In 'Irish Mesmerism," the whole
company performed their roles most ac-
ceptably.
Tonight there will be another crowd
ed house to see the performance of mi
riam' s Crime and "Rooney's Blunders,
both Of which plays are highly spoken of.
It is expected to be something above the
usualexcellence Of the company's playing,
and we advise all to go early to get seats.
To- morrow night is j ohm Dillon's benefit.
The Troupe will stay here the remain
der of the week, when they leave for
Sheboygan.
