"The Crystal Slipper or, Prince Prettiwitz and
Little Cinderella" reappeared at the Chicago
opera house Monday night, January 7th. The thea
tire, as was TO be expected, was crowded to the
presented with the same enthusiasm manifested
during the long summer run of the piece
It's most successful career in Boston, New York and
Philadelphia had evidently inspired the theatre
goers OF Chicago to give the "Crystal Slipper" q
warm welcome, and the great spectacular extrava-
ganza has entered upon its second Chicago engage
ment with every prospect of enormous receipts
From the frst scene, 1.-THE Catacombs of She," to
the final transformation, 1.-THE Realms Of the Re-
volving Hours" the performance was character
lied by ego" and q brightness which, before the
advent of the present production, was never OBJ
servable, at least in this country, in similar pro-
auctions. New costumes come Of them even sur
passing in delicacy of material and workmanship
those of the original presentation, were shown.
The scenery, retouched and FURNISHED, was dazzling
in the extreme. These, with the crowds Of people
nearly 200 in number-continually occupying
the stage, the skillful management of the lights
and the perfection Of details observable here
made up 9 series of pictures that would be difficult
to surpass. The large ballet was fully up to its
former standard, and the premeres, Clara Qualtz,
and Miles Clara Neumann and Madeline Morando
distinguished themselves by their artistic work.
OF the comedians 1t Is only necessary to say that
Eddie Foy was quite as laughable ever, and that
Robert Z. Graham's Baron Anthracite was q much
better Characterization than it was before. The
cast Is substantially the formerly, with the
exception of Katherine B. Howes, who imperson-
ates Prince Pretttcifz with considerable ability.
She s the possessor Of rich contralto voice and
good stage presence. Little Itch, the laughable
grotesque, Is great q favorite as ever His
dancing in the dolls quadrille creates as great
sensation as II did in New York. Matinees of the
Crystal Slipper" will be given Wednesdays and
Thursdays.

EXPERIENCE.
M JOHN BOYLE o'REILLY.

The world made when born,
lie m taste for himself the forbidden springs,
lie take warning fIom old fashioned things
lie must fight as boy he must drink Ne youth
lie must kiss he must love he must swear TO the truth
OF the friend of his soul, he must laugh To scorn
The hints Of deceit in n woman's eyes
That clear rs the wells OF Paradise
And as he goes on Till the world grows old,
cautious, hts heart
Till smile leaves his mouth and the ring leaves his laugh
And ne bright headache ask him To guam
e grow formal with AMI with women polite,
Andd Of when they OF has sight,
Then his palate and drinks for bis head,
And pleasure and It's time he we're dead.
