sents the best, most faughable and freshest
programme of any company on the road
The large audience last evening kept up a
continuous roar of laughter from ths be-
ginning to its close All the jokes and
gags" were new and original, the songs
were fresh. the orchestra was superior, the
dancing unsxcelled, the isHrlesque ininiTa
BILE, and Billy Rice was sarnply immense.
In this brief notice of the most excellent
performance, We cannot particulariZe, but
sum it all up by saying that finer troupe
of artists was never before in Dubuque.
Margaret 1Iathey. ~
Among the most notable events, soon
to be enjoyed. is to be the appearance of
Miss Margaret Mather, who has just con-
eluded most extraordinary four weeks
engagement at McVicker's theater, Chica-
go She has created furore I'm that city
far greater than that produced by Mary
Anderson on the occasion of bar debut.
and the critics of that most critical of all
dramatic centers are unanimous im award
ing her credit for phenomenal ted nt,
great versatility and rare intelligence in
the conception of tine characters she as
sumHs-
Though Miss Mathes is debutaahe- she
does not appear befonw the public without
full preparation for her tasks. She was
brought to the notice of Manager j. M.
Hill about two years. ago througha pri
vate reading given at a friends residence
in Boston. Mr.. Hill perceived her talent,
and at once sought to- induce her to. take
the stage. She consented to Mr.. Hills
terms, which were that she should spend
two years in study at his expense underline
care of competent instructor. She en-
tered upon her duties with all the enthusi-
asm of youth and the determination of
one who chooses a life work with the pur-
pose of succeeding. Four weeks ago to-
morrow evening she made her first APP
pearance upon public stage before an
audience of several thousand people in
the role of Juliet, Alexander Salvini, son
of the great tragedian, supporting her as
Romeo. Before the close of the first act
she had won the audience, and from
that time till the curtain fell
upon the death scene she was the recipient
of an Ovation such as has racely been ac-
corded to the most distinguished actors.
and never before to a debutante- The
audiences keve continued 10 crowd the
theatre nightly ever since. She has ap-
| peared as 4uliet in ''Romao and JWliet,' y
as Leah, In 1.-The Forsaken Jewess,'' as
Pauline, in 1.-The Lady of Lyons and as
.'Resalind" in "As You Like it, In each
character she has won the highest praise
and the best judges predict for her g
success never before e9ualed by an
American actress.
So Thoroughly is the cautious McViclkel
convinced Of the reality of Miss Mather's
popularity that he offered Manager Hii
