A Busted Fight,

Bill Barker and Roxy Whalen are not
friends but they came as near shaking hands
last Sunday morning as they will ever come
again 1t seems that Bill and Roxy have
aspirations to the prize ring Want to be
real pugalists, so their hackers say, and
doubts coming to the ears Of one of the
others appreciation of his powers, sort of
mutual dislike grew up between them. 1t Is
said that they fought draw battle some
months ago in which both were badly used
up. This was the last time they shook hands.
A few weeks ago, however. the pugilistic
fever struck them like new born thought.
They would fight again. They chose stake
holder and posted one hundred dollars per
side TO fight with bore fists to a finish, Mar
quis of Queensbury rules. Not that they
knew aught of the Marquis or Of the rules.
but that they wanted some sort of rules to
govern the affair in order that it might have
a professional flavor. The day was set-also
the hour. They were to fight at five in the
morning at the Driving Park Bill had been
pounding the bag all week and was in good
condition, but the police interfered and the
fight was declared off. 1t may occur later,

The City Directory" has made such a
hit at the Chicago Opera House, that it will
doubtless hold the stage of that theatre for
another week. Paul Nj. Potter, the author,
has furnished the clever comedians, Donnelly
and Gerard, with valuable vehicle for the
display of their talents, and although some
clever lines have been sacrificed for the pur.
pose of introducing musical and terpsichor'
can failures. there is quite enough of Mr..
Potter's work left to show what he is capable
of doing. The hits of the evening last Mon
day night were of course scored by Messrs.
Donnslly and Gerard, and Miss Alice Hsr-
rison. Mr.. Mack, the original "Razzle-
Dazzle" did some excellent work. A strik-
ing feature of the performance was the Arch
mere sisters, and one which captured the
audience was triple song and dance intro
ducing the melodies popular twenty years
ago The piece was beautifully staged. The
houses have been crowded at each perform

After the termination Of hlessrs. Dounelly
& Girard's engagement at the Chicago Opera
House, "Bluebeard Junior" the Bird annual
spectacular extravaganza, will be presented

way Of properties will be seen. The Robin.
son Bros, who have been actively engaged
for many months in devising these indies
pensible necessities of spectacle, have turned
out many new and novel pieces of papier
machc work. The costumes designed by
Chasemore of London, and VIM. Voegtlin of
Chicago, are certainly the most artistic that
have been seen on an American stage. 1t is
expected that the ballets in "Bluebeard Jun
Tor" will far surpass anything ever seen in a
similar production, for they have been devils
ed and rehsarsed by the celebrated maitre
dballet Mons. Msmert Bibeyran. There will
be over 200 people engaged in the stage rep
resentation. Among the principslsAre Lilly
Post, Ada Deaves, Topsy Venn, Kate TART,
Edith Muriila, Edwin Foy, Kerry c. Peakes,
Ignacio Martinetti, Clara Qualitz, Madeline
Morando and host of others. When it is
remembered that Mr.. Richard Barker. for
merly of the Gaiety, Alhambra, Drury Lane
and the Empire theaters, London, will stage
the piece, there can be no doubt of the per-
