II is said that Augustin DAILY will probably
Withdraw The Lottery Of Love " from his
theatre in about two weeks. II has been sue
cessful but not exuberantly triumphant. IL
will not be Immediately followed by a new
play, as its rather sudden withdrawal would
render such q course comparatively i'm
possible. DAILY will probably present some
thing that has been seen before while prepar-
Ing his new adaptation. which will undoubt-
edly see him through his season. The
Lottery of Love was II big success in Paris,
but II was not of u nature to please
either n New York or London thea
trical community. In London Mrs. JON
Woods's version. called Mamma" met with
no prosperity. DAILY secured the play while
abroad. The Lottery of Love" Is almost a
literal translation of Les Surprises du Di-
vorce," with II little eiferyesccnt nuughtiness
eliminated. DAILY, by the bye, has secured
the German comedy that made n hit at the
new Ainberg Theatre. and Is at work upon its
cess in German that it Is said to have made
Amberg's house - solid " at once.
Miss Charlotte Thompson declares that she

The sere and yellow correspondent whose
reputation for chivalry was recently ques-
toned by an indignant brother with the as
sistance of a stout horsewhip is indulging in
n little v~irtuous (p) indignation in tho Mirror.
The marks from the horsewhip can hardly
have faded away when here he is ut IL again,
in the great champion act. The two charm
ing ladies in question would be better with

Young Mr.. Seanor. whose connection with

/ terprise, which was dissected in The EVEN
mo WORLD on Monday, declares that one of
the unpaid negro performers threw a razor Mt
him. and that he was obliged to seek the pro-
lection of the police. 1t seems that colored
people are as indelicately persistent az their
white brothers when their bread and butter Is
at stake.
Dockstader's Minstrels leave New York
early next week, and 1t is not likely that they
will again occupy the little Broadway hall.
Mr.. Dockstader controls the house until
May 1, and will rent it to as many combina-
the Mestayer- Vaughn company in The
Kitty" on Monday. This will be followed
by Kellar. the magician. who will
come there for q stay. Kellar some time
season under the management of George
Brotherton. But in all truth It must be said
that since the days of the San Francisco Min
strels no solid money has been made in the
little theatre. Dockstader has given good
performances with good people and has made
an excellent reputation for himself, which
he will And of great service when on tour.

The same effects and costumes which are
to support Mrs. Potter in the Forthcoming
