The above bill is called the best ever
seen in the Northwest, with good rea-
sons. The members OF The City Di-
rectory" company come first on the list.
The gentlemen who will appear in the
first pant are the recognized leaders of
minstrelsy in America. Miss Amelia
Glover, from the same company, has no
equal on the American stage as an
artistic dancer. Pitou's stock company
is the most complete organization of
dramatic artists in the country. OF that
there is no doubt, the members of the
company being the pick of the best
stock companies in New York. The
leading members of this company, Miss
Seligman, Mr.. Wheatcroft, Mr.. Backus,
Miss Stuart and Mr.. Frankel. 1t is
well known fact that Hoyt'S comedians
petent people. From "A Trip TO China
town. company come the DAILY sisters,
of the famous DAILY family. all of whom
are eminent dancers, and Mr. GilfOil,
the best imitator and whistler on the
stage. Since the retirement of Edwin
Booth there is no tragedian on the
American stage worthy of meution
alongside of Frederick Warde. He and
his capable company will present the
forum scene from ''Virginius." won
derful scene from great play. 1.-The
Old. Old Story" company is equally
strong, and will present the second act
of that play. 1t is the best act in the
play. There is no man before the pub
lie who attempts the high jumping feats
that will be presented by Harry Robi-
son.
Take it for all in all, you will not look
upon its like again.
The curtain will rise for the first
number on the programme at 2 o'clock
sharp.
