ADJUSTMENTS.
The Theatre Comique

Reference, in general terms, to the Theatre
COmique shows that Manager Rogers is prepared
not cnly to maintain the great prestige Of last
week, but to make additions to q very captivating
array OF talent. This evening Mr.. Edwin Har-
ley, from Simmons and Slocum's minstrels, will
make his first appearance here as a vocalist. He
comes with q reputation which promises the
patrons of the Conique much pleasure. 1t is the
last week Of WeIch and Rice. They will intro
duce the ludicrous act of "Fat and Thin" and
the mirth-provOking sketch OF "a Slippery Day"
The feature of the female minstrel troupe is to be
mental. Blue Beard, sun further improved By
Mr.. Budd, is also on the bills, and the sixteen
young ladies who dance the Morlacchi Can-Can
will be led by Miss Frankie Christie, the most
finished and elegant dancer now on the variety
stage. Her popularity in Washington is surpris-
ing, and is soldy earned BY her artistic work and
Monzert Sisters, Miles. Camsrs and Zoene the
Irwin Sisters, Lestie Carrie, the W eigle Sisters
Ruby Of the Variety Stage" and one Of its
most attractive ornaments remains another week,
and Lille Howard, "the rose that all are prais-
Ing" pretty, sweet and gifted, also remains TO
"washee, washee' Blue Boards family. Lew
Spencer. Jake Budd, John Robinson and Geo. II.
Waite are still in the programme. We hope that
ali the artists this evening Will earn special men
tiOp. Fifteen hundred people visited toe Oomique
Saturday night, and nearly fourteen hundred
tickets were sold.
The Avenue Theatre.
a new anu complete rsorSanlzRtl0n OIL the e2-
cellent company at the Avenue theatre is an
nounced by Manager Bauer. 1t is augmented by
the addition OF Miss Minnie Lee-a winning card
in this cOmmunity-a fine singer and elegant
dancer; Miss Lou Edwards, exceedingly popular
among q host of friends; Miss Maude Ashton,
premiere daRScuse, and Miss Minnie Clifton,
actress and vocalist. The two latter make their
first appearance here, and fame speaks loudly in
their behalf. We hope they will add Washington
TO their list of conQuests. The Brandt sisters,
Marie and Lizzie, will introduce this week new
songs, sketches and dances. They are certainly
entitled TO the high rank they have won in their
profession as clever artists. No work or study is
too severe for their ambition, for they perform to
please the public. Miss Julia Bennett and Hiss
Mary Alder are still on the bills, with Charley
Howard, Kirk and Drew, Z. /. Barnes, Randolph
Leslie and Johns. The grand Russian Can-Can
will be supported by Jessie Howard and the en-
tire strength of the company. Miss Howard's
talent ana earnest professional work is fully ap-
preciated by the patrons Of the Avenue theatre,

If runner is true, tremendous excitement may be

without money, going to Richmond only once In

paying back the trifing sum. His povsrty at
taeks his coat, pants and vest first, leaving the

both constitute the hnal standard Of personal

S0ME newspapers in England are
making y great alto over the mead
OF Oliver Cromwell. If the story
relating to it is true and it is really
the head Of the "Piotector," it is
the most remarkable head for en-
durance in the world, except the
Egyptian Sphynx. and ia time it
may rival that. The whole body of
Cromwell was embaImcd and buried.
After several years, it Was disiu-
tered in the reign Of Charles IL,
aud iu order that it might be thor
oughIy dead, was hung by the neck
for AL indefinite time ut Tyburne.
Then it was taken down and the
head cut Oft This head was then
stuck on the top of Westminster
Hail, where it remained in wind and
weather, rain and shine, for twenty
five years, when one night it was
blown off and fell a distance great
enough to have cracked an ordinary
head all to pieces, but it wasn't hur,
a bit. TWAS picked up by sentry,
who concealed it, and on his death
bed revealed the place of its con
ceaIment. 1t was sold and passed
from one to another until the pres
ent day. Meantime it has been eX-
hibited by showmen of the Barnum
order, probably, and now rests in
the hands of Il physician in Kent.
Some newspapers are giving Gre
d-nce to the story, and it will
probably he Tor sale soon. For our
part We think that head hal better
be buried with the Cardiff giant.
The IN st remarkable feature apuut
it is that the beard and hair still
adorn it -Mihcauhee Sentinel.
