The Troy Times says of Charles Fostelle's
Mrs. Partington,' = in which character he will
appear at Portland Theatre Thursday and
Friday: "Charles Fostelle's rendition is a
new departure in that vein of the Iudicrous
which most strongly appeals to the New Eng
land heart, and excited the risibles of a crowd
ed house which swayed to and fro in uncon-
trollable mirth, until their sides ached with
continued exertion. 1t is ludicrous in the ex-
treme, without an indecent or coarse line. -,

THE LYCEuNI.

THE LYCEUM.
The Saturday night house at the Lycem was
the largest in the history of that place of
amusement. The Jockey Minstrels, mindful
of st. Patrick's Day, wore the green above the
red-the green being conspicuously displayed.
1t was Mr.. Harvey Collins last night, and the
farewell he received must have been very
gratifying to him. He goes at once to Evans
vile, Indiana, to fulfill summer engagement
at the Apollo Theatre.
Mr.. Wallace takes the stage this week, and
will doubtless approve himself capable direc-
tor of amusements The bill he offers is
promising. IN addition to the excellent stool,
company the attractions are many. The
popular favorite, Miss Nellie Abbott. remains
another week. The "Queen Of Clubs" Miss
Lottie zalia. has been induced to prolong her
stay, much to the qualification Of the patrons
OF the place. Miss Allie Mills returns and will
be heartily welcomed. The Richard Brothers,
song and dance men, make their first how to a
portland audience in the statue clog, and Billy
DeVerne appears in his Irish jigs, reels and
songs The afterpiece is Gus Wallace's ga
Slippery Day" in which he appears as Jacob

PAT RooNEY's COMBINATION.
Tomorrow night Pat Rooney's great COM
bination will appear at Portland Theatre. The
Detroit Free Press says: 'The performers
who comprise the combination proper are
nearly all exceptionally clever and original. A
picturesque and fascinating feature of the bill
is the bicycle act Of the Stirk family, while
Joe Hart, baDioist; the Du Rells, acrobatic
song and dance performers; Sharply and
West in their Bing Bang musical nonsense
and Charles FL. Hoey, the greatest club Jug
gler ever seen here, all contributed literally
to the excellence Of the show. There are no
tedious waits, but everything moves rapidly
from till 1880 O'Clock. Who SO would laugh
will find the cue for it in the doings of Pat
Rooney and his company"
