The Chicago Church Pinafore company spent
the Sabbath at their homes yesterday, and re-
ceived hearty welcome.
John Mccullough will be piloted this year by
by Mr.. w. M. Conner, SO we'll known here as
an energetic and gentlemanly manager.
The performance of The Bankers Daughter
at Haverly's Chicago theatre drew $1,000 for
eight performances. Pretty good business.
Among others who will support Robson and
Crane the coming season is Miss Annie Euchre-
deque. It is needless to say she is trump.
Ed. Thorne is to play the role of the Parson
in the Danitas in the coming season. Eds
early education qualities him admirably for the

scribed az cross between the Two Orphans
and L'Assommoir.
Alice Oates opens at Philadeibhia on the lst
of September, but as she has not been married
for more than month she will hardly succeed
In drawing crowd.
aJudging from the advertisements in the dra-
matte newspapers, nearly half the would-be
stars are at liberty They are likely to re.
main so indefinitely.
Miss Jeffrys-Lewis has gone back to her old
position as leading lady at Baldwin's theatre,
San Francisco. Her recent matrimonial ven
ture was not 3 success.
Harry Sargent, the manager Of Modjeska, is
negotiating for her appearance at the Adelphia
theatre London. He has worked up the me-
tropolis to furore with great success.
Owing to the races at Milwaukee being de-
clared of, Rice's Evangeline company, engaged
for the same week, have declared themselves
off. This sort Of thing is a little too ofsish.
Miss Genevieve Rogers, notwithstandi ng her
Partisan dresses, was fiat failure IN Chicago.
People admired her beauty and toilette. but
didn't care enough about her acting to 90 10
see it.
The widow of the late Edwin Adams is about
to be married again. As the actors of the
10,
husband is not likely to see want for some time
to come.
Pauline Markham is in Frisco. The sheriff
| is looking around with powerful microscope
for her wardrobe, which he wishes to attach for
debt, but at last accounts had met with no
success,
Brooks Davey, who have been fitting up
the Memphis theatre with the intention of run
ming it for the next year, have abandoned the
enterprise convinced that there is more money
elsewhere.
Clara Morris is not likely to appear on the
stage to any great extent the coming season,
Her husband insists that she shall not be held
liable for damages in case of her inability to
appear, and managers do not care to enter upon
such contracts, especially as the fair actress is
| indisposed more than half the time.
Aimee is losing popularity. In San Fran
| cisco. where she has always been prime favor
lite, she drew but meagre houses, and a masked
ball IN French style, given under her auspices,
was all that rendered her stay there rem unera
tive. The price of tickets was fixed at $5 and
people readily paid the amount expecting to
witness something naughty, but they didn't,
and consequently the disappointment is great.
