known as the Ferguson and Mack comedy
company. Anybody who has ever seen and
heard Ferguson, one of the most odd genius
es OF the stage will readily credit the asser-
ton that he alone is worth the price OF ad-
mission, but Lizzie DAILY divides the honors
with him, and little vinie DAILY, said to be
the most artistic child danseuse in existence,

play is under the management OF Charles H.
Rice, of the Bijou theatre, in New YORK.

tior of comedies. its greatest success was
"The Pearl of Pekin," of which Louis HarrI'
son was the star. One of Its funniest Char

Mishaps," has, as quite distinctive feature
a very able imitator Of the CELESTIAL IN 'he
person of r. E. Callahan. The play has the
additional attraction Of two ballet dancers
who disport themselves with great reckless
