Musical and Dramatic Notes.

Never since the war has the theatrical business
In this city evoked little interest proved SO
Improbable as this season.
The piece which is underlined at the Lyceum
Theatre, and in which Mr.. Fechter is to take the
leading part, Is based on the old play Of 'Robert
Macaire.n
complimentary concert is to be given at De
Garmo Hall tomorrow evening to Mrs. Agnes
vedder. Mr.. Pattison, the pianist, and other well
known professionals will take part in the enter
tanment as well as several amateurs.
Mr.. +. L. Davenport, the tragedan. appears at
Woods this week. Mr.. Davenport mas not played
in this city for many months, and his present en-
gagement can scarcely fail to prove great pleas
ure to his many admirers.
With the exception OF the Olympic all the thea
tres have already produced their Christmas pieces,
and at this house the new piece will be brought
out on Tuesday evening. The piece is called
Gabriel Grub. and is intended to be light, airy
and amusing as fits the season.
"a Man OF Honor" Mr.. Dion BOucicaults COM
edy, was not produced at Wallacks last night, as
announced. large audience was disappointed
by this bad management. Want OF sufficient re-
hearsa was the excuse for postponlng the produc-
ton until tomorrow (Monday) evening.
1t is great pleasure to have the Strakosch
Opera Company on the boards OF the Academy
during Christmas week. The opera on Wednesday
evening will be Lies Huguenots." and "AYda" will
be sung on Christmas night. Nilsson again sings
on Friday evening and "AYda" will be repeated at
the matinee on Saturday.
