talent in the state, having been in exist
ence now for fifteen years. The princi-
pal female character will be imperson-

part by James j. Smith. Rev. Thomas
OGorman will give short lecture on
the present Condition of Ireland" and ,
Miss Holt will play number of selec-
lions upon her beautiful cOrnet. The
theater will be decorated with en-
blems of Ireland, Irish society banners,
etc. The sale of seats commenced last
Tuesday morning, and by noon the same.
day 300 seats were sold and all the boxes
for the evenings entertainment. so
that all who wish to obtain the best
seats will do well to attend the after
noon performance, which will be ex-
actly the same in every detail as the
evenings. A delegation of 200 from st.
Paul have secured seats for the evening,
and will attend in body, marching d.
rect from the depot to the theater. The
regular Peoples theater prices have
been raised by the committee, the mat
inee prices being 25 cents to all parts of
the house, and at evening 25, so and rs
cents will be the prices Of admission.
