be the attraction par excellence at the Harris
theater Sunday evening, Jan. 4. Matinees
Tuesday Wednesday, Thursday and Satur
day. The play is a new production to st.
Paulites, but it comes to our city heralded
with the prestige Of commentator by the
press of New York. Philadelphia. Chicago,
Boston, Detroit Pittsburg, New Orleans,
Washington and other leading cities of the
country and will undoubtedly find equal
favor and cordial appreciation in St. Paul.
[ Hhe strength and interest of the play de-
ponds upon the strength, individuality. aim
and purpose Of its characters. 1t is a con-
tinuous story carefully worked out in detail
The plot is deep and replete with unexpected
climaxes that cannot fail to win the SYM
pathy of the auditor. ''Credit Lor-

and its moral influence creates a lasting
impression. The play will be presented at
the Harris theater on a scale of magnifcence
and with perfection of detail that must pro-

triumph. Miss Lewis will be ably supported
by her own carefully selected company, in

and Archibald Cowper. The costumes worn
by Miss Lewis in Credit Lorraine are the

deserve the attention that has been bestowed
upon them. 1t is uuquestionably a new de-
parture in vaudeville business and If the
entertainment is what the announcements
claim it is Prof. Hermann is to be heartily
commended. Appearances indicate that the
attendance for their brief engagement here
been the result everywhere, and the organi-
cation is appearing only in the leading legiti-
mate tlleaters of the country. The list of
celebrities that go to make up the entertain
ment certainly warrant the belief that there
is considerable merit in the COM

the programme may be mentioned:

Prof. d. P. Hurlburt's Hyppoeynagon, or
{ show OF performing horses and dogs, will be
at che Olympic this week, and the entertain
nfent will be one of the most interesting ever
given in st. Paul. OF this organization the
Sioux City Journal says: 1.-THE ten beautiful
horses show remarkable education and an
simply wonderful. The pure
white Arabian horse is a beauty. The beau
tiful black horse Prince. Frenchman,' fnl1
oftlife, which has been seven years old ever
since he first appeared before the public,
years ago, performs tricks and strikes good
positions at the command of lhisanaster with
qufckness and grace. His performance drew
forth enthusiastic applause. The rest OF the
professors boys received warm welcomes
every time they came out aud made their
bows to the audience. The two donkeys Gre
ated considerable laughter by their nervous
ness The dogs are equally we'll trained,
and their performances were much enjoyed.
While it would be wrong to particularlze
in speaking of the specially work connected
with Prof. Hurlburt's Hyppocynagon, we will
mention the Wrens, i'll a very neat shooting
act, and the wonderful work performed on
the triple bars by the wen known Marietta
brothers.
