This is positively the last month that DR. y.
Mccoy and Wildman will treat patients for
s. a month--excepting OF course those VINO
take treatment before June /. There are
reasons for extending this liberal offer 70 the
lst Of June. Pressing requests from people
who want to take treatment and say they
cannot begin until some time In June There
are also serious reasons for discoutinuing this
liberal offer. The most paramount Of which
Is that Drs. Mccoy and Wildman cannot af-
ford to extend this liberal offer beyond the
lst of June, simply because they can't afford
TO give their time and skill and furnish all
medicines fer so li.tle money any longer than
the LIST OF June.
The object in putting the fee 80 low for a
time was to give eve ybody an opportunity Of
testing their ability and skill, and psrtici-
pating in the success which has marked the
career of these 81 ecialiets who have treated
more cases OF diseases Of the nose au1 throat
than any other two physicians in the whole

The Bijou Theater.

Charles I. Ellis. q talented young actor. the
favorite alike of his profession and the public,
will make his initial bow at the Bijou to-mor-
row evening. Ellis has for the past four sea.
sons held his own against the other German
dialect comedians, and in the minds OF many
he has outstripped them all. Certainly none OF
the others have the appearance or sing with such
sweetness his charming songs. There is some
time in everything that he does that marks the
man as true artist and it will surprise him If
he does not become the favorite here that he
has In other cities. Ellis is surrounded by q
most capable company. who interpret his play
of Casper the Yodler" otherwise the
warblerl in a Thorough manner Casper"
was written by William Carleton, author of
Fritz in Ireland" "Irish Aristocracy"
and other plays that have found favor
with the public. Throughout the whole play
there is said TO be not a situation that is not
filed with interest. There is pathos for the
thoughtful and fun for those who love laugh.
All of Mr.. Ellis songs are written by himself,
and are therefore peculiarly suited to his voice.
which is a clear high tenor. There are Ger
man dialect comedians In large numbers. all OF
whom have gone to pieces in their endeavors
to initiate Joe Emmett. Mr.. Ellis has at
tempted no such thing, it is said, but wisely
elected to win his laurels from the standpoint
of his own individuality. In short, he has
been successful and anyone who hears him will
have no difficulty in determining why. As a
vocalist he unmistakably distances all his com
perItors ana wins unstinted applause when
ever his sympathetic and delightful voice is
heard, and II Is fact that the New York
papers recently spoke Of his work IN very plain
terms OF praise.

The Duquesne Theater.

On the stage Of the Duquesne. Theater all
this week will be presented a bill which might
have been taken both from point of play and
partially of personnel, bodily from the reper-
tory of one of the famous old stock theaters Of
half century ago. when art reigned supreme.
and frfvolity farce, horse-play and travelling
combinations were unknown. The piece is
Sheridan's Imm ortal comedy, "The School for
Scandal" !" and it will be acted by q company
worthy of its original creation. That great
artistic, Mrs John Drew, will be the star, and
she will re-create role in which it is highly
probable she has delighted the Pittsburg thea
ter-goer of a quarter of q century not longer,
ago. Mrs. Drew's Lady Iedzte is a creation
which to the American stage is as unique and as
perfect in its way as Mr.. Edwin Booths
Hamlet. The Lady TedzLe of Mrs. Drew
is one Of the great ideals. She probably played
the part frst nearly half century ago, and
was for years constantly before the public as its
greatest interpreter. Mrs. Drew will be ably
supported, the company she has gathered
around her comprising some of the principal
legitimate artists of the day. The complete
cast will be as follows: Sir Peter 7sdzle. George
Holland: Sir OtiUer Surface, Eugene Jepson;
Charles Surface. Eben Plympton: Joseph Sur
face, Robert Tabor; M. Crdbtree, George r.
Edeson; Sir Berjdmin Buckbite, G. Stuart

Grand Opera House.

Madame Janauschek's career has been a sue
cession of magnificent artistic achievements,
and her name is associated with many of the
noblest productions of the stage. The actress
SO loves her art that now she studies and labors
with the earnest enthusiasm and untiriup
energy of a beginner in the profession which
she has SO long adorned. Tomorrow: night
this fine artist will present at the Grand for
public approval the. latest addition to her
repertory in the character OF Queen Bess in
the play called Essex. or the Queens Favor
lite" translation of DR.. Heinrich Laube's
Graf Essex" one of the most attractive works
on the German stage. Mastery in its dramatic
construction and accepted as one Of the best
written works in the language, it has special
value as historical production and a silver web
of ofromance invests IL with an attractive and even
strong heart interest in the loves of the brill
liant and attractive Roberl Devereaux; the
Queen and Annie Rutland this performance
has received unstinted praise in other cities
and the company supporting is credited with
being an unusually Strong one. Janauschek's
impersonation of Sir Walter Scotts Meo
Me7rtLtes will be the attraction on Tuesday
night. This is one of the most remarkable
characterizatlons of the modern stage, and
Schiller's "Marie Stuart" with which the
great actresses name has SO long been asso-
ciated, will be produced on Wednesday night,
and on Saturday Janauschek will give her in
comparable Interpretation of Lady Macbeth.
There Will be a Janausch elk matinee on Satur-
day.
Id tne week iouoWlnR tne J2nauscnek en-
gagement Fanny Davenport will appear in
Cleopatra" after Victorien Sardnu. Although
this is not Shakespeare's Cleopatra, this
famous French writer has invested the charac-
ter with SO much that appeals to modern au-
diences, and in a manner SO purely dramatic
that il will be of interest to the public gener-
ally. So much has been said of Miss Dayen-
ports impersonation OF Cleopatra that it is
needless to say anything in advance; bus, aside
from her ella i'm as an artist, she deserves The
commendation of the public for the pluck and
fortitude she has shown in sustaining the loss
of the old, as well as placing the new Cleopatra a
upon the stage. And this she has done in a
manner that has left The French production
entirely in the shade. The present engagement
is under the direction of Marcus r. Mayer and
it is promised that the play will be staged with
all the accessories OF scenery and costume that
have made it a success elsewhere.
