 KATE FIELD
 The gifted artiste, Miss Kate Field, will ap- pear at Pecks Grand Opera House next Mon day evening in her musical folly, Eyes and Ears in London" Of her performance in Boston the Journal says: horticultural Hall was packed to overfowing Saturday af- ternoon by very fashionable audience. The entertainment is one of the most brilliant and sparkling that has been introduced into Boston for long time, and it fully deserves the truly immense success it has gained. Miss Field has hit upon the popular idea, and carries it out to perfection" The sale of reserved seats will commence at Loomis' this morning.
 THE PARLoR MAGIcALs.
 The second parlor magical given by MT. E. A. Parsons at the Atheneum last evening was quite well attended. Those who were present witnessed very pleasing and inter esting performance The tricks, which com prised the first part of the entertainment, were nearly all new and were very cleverly done. The musical part of the programme consisted of Thalberg's Romance" (new), Gottschalk's ''Home, Sweet Home' varia- tions and the ''Salterello'' (Mills). These se- lections were all played with that perfection of technique which always characterizes MT. Parsons performances. ''The vision mys- tery," though old, was so well done as to in- terest those who understood it's secret We trust>that the third magical, which occurs February 9, will be largely attended.
 MARY ANDERSON.
 Mary Anderson will present on Thursday night of next week ''The Hunchback." Knowles play, at Carll's Opera House, in which she appears as Julia. Miss Apderson's engagement which terminated last Saturday night at the Fifth Avenue Theatre, New York, was a pre-eminently successful one. She played season of four weeks to very large houses Julia may be regarded as one of Miss Anderson's best characters. It af- lords her fine opportunity in it's intense passages for a most delicate treatment of the passion which is about to impel an act fatal to her if done. The company supporting Miss Anderson is excellent one. Mr. Milnes Levick, an actor of sterling worth, will play Master Walter, the Hunchback No doubt curiosity will be piqued to witness this performance and Oarlls may be crowded
