AMUSEM ENTS.
"My Colleen"


 It is a relief in the dreary round of farce comedy and spectacular effusions with which the stage of late has been surfeited to find an author intent upon maintaining the better traditions. One thing can honestly be said of Tony Far rell, who will appear in My Colleen at the opera house Monday afternoon and evening, which is true of compara- lively few actors who essay this line of parts; he is original in interpretation and method. He is a natural, unaffected and pleasing representative of young Irish character parts. His comedy is good without being exaggerated in order to force a laugh. While he possesses more sentiment than any of the young men playing this line of parts, he is endowed with a clear tenor voice which is heard to great advantage | In his charming rendition of his tuneful Irish ballads. MT Farrell has a well de- | fined part in Jerry Doyle, a rollicking son of Erin, humorous without being grotesque, manly and courageous, but devoid of that ultra heroism usually prevalent in the Irish school of plays. | "Joshua Simpkins."
 l On next Wednesday evening the "Joshua Simpkins'' company will pro duce the yankee comedy drama of that name. The play deals with country people and three of it's scenes are laid ir village in Vermont. The second act takes place at the national capital which Uncle Josh favors with his first visit A realistic saw mill effect is seen in full operation in the third act.
 l ''Tuxedo."
 George Thatcher's company in "Tux edo' will be the attraction at the opera house next Thursday evening.
