Coming.

The dramatic attractions during the past
week in both cities have run entirely in the
direction of comedy and the admirers of

laugh to the top of their bent. On Monday
evening Nat Goodwin, with his CHEEKY
smile. mobile and comical face, opened an
engagement at the st. Paul Grand in his
new comedy, 1.-The Skating Rink" The
satire proved very amusing, and it was
played to large audiences.
On Thursday evening the clever young
comedian, Mr.. w. j. Seaman, made his
bow to the ST. Paul public. He presented
1.-The Irish Minstrel and Friend and Foe, u
In both of which he displayed comical tai
ept of a high order, and it is safe to say
that he is one of the few really genuine
comedians of the day, being eminently
qualified to fill the sphere which he has
carved out by training and nature. His
engagement was both enjoyable and sue
ceSSful.

Tomorrow evening at the st. Paul Grand,
Mr.. Gus Williams, the dialect comedian,
will inaugurate an engagement in his new
play. Capt. Mishler,,' which has proven a
great success before Eastern audiences.
