ADJUSTMENTS

At the Metropolitan Theater this even
ing Bobby Gaylor will appear in his
rollicking comedy, ''Sport McAIlister.
one Of the 400" His company includes
George Parker, danseuse; J. p. Carroll,
the olympia Male Quartet, Charles W.
Young, comedian. who was the Book
Agent in ''A Parlor Match" and Bessie
Gilbert, cornetist. The farcial creation
is said to be uproarously funny" and
the Denver Republican pronounces the
specialties ''as entertaining as the farce
itself.'' The Salt Lake Iribaae saws of
the play: 1T is a clean, clear-cut variety
show. 1t is as invigorating as bottle of
champagne. 1t goes under the name of
farce comedy but is away and beyond
the Nightmares which we are accustomed
to have in shows going under that de-
nomination" The Denver NeloS thus
sums up Gaylor: "a supple, taut-rfgged
little fellow, with face and manner that
suggests infinite possibilities in the way
of fun-not the oily, unctuous sort that
repelS while it amuses, but the natural,
easy kind that commands rather than
begs appreciation. Such man is rather
q mirror which reflects the ridiculous
| from everything it is tnrned toward,
than selt-luminous parsonage"
The 1.-TWO Orphans" drew good house
at the Clunie last night. The play was
given smoothly with feeling, intelligence
and good taste. 1t is we'll staged and
handsomely costumed. Miss Wood
thorpe'S Louise and her sister, Genevieye,
she playing both parts, are painstaking
and strikingly realistic creations. Alice
Carman, cast into the part of the Countess
at "a moments notice Monday night. was
up in the role last night and read and
acted creditably. Mr.. De Lano's Picard
is the one bit of humor that breaks the
monotone Of the melodrama, and is well
done. The duel between the brothers in
| the last act, and the rescue of the blind
girl by her foster sister Miss CrOuse),
reused the audience last night to enthu-
sistic cheering, and was very thrill
ing piece of dramatic work The
1.-TWO Orphans will be repeated this
evening for the last time but one. 1t
affords a satisfying evenings entertain
ment and Is strong drama on all sides
and well acted.
At Pythian Castle this afternoon, at 3
O'Clock, the third of the day series of con-
certs will be given by the ladies through
whose enterprise they were inaugurated.
There will be an excellent vocal quartet.
and piano selections by Mrs Albert
Elkus, Miss Barrett, Miss Ellis of Dixon
and Hugo Mansfeldt. G. A. Neale is
musical director and manager, and his
orchestra will take prominent part. The
admission is fifty cents.
Domingo, the Albino babe, and its
pretty Indian mother had good recep-
tions yesterday. They will exhibit at
the Clunie Opera-house parlors to-day
from 10 to noon and to 5, and children
of the public schools will be admitted to-
day for half the usual price.
AT the Metropolitan Theater Friday
and Saturday evenings Tyndall. the hyp-
notist and mind-reader, will appear. So
much has been printed of him in the CAL
ifornia press that the public is quite
familiar with the remarkable claims he
prefers. He will repeat here the feat he
accomplished in San Francisco and Oak
land Of driving blindfolded through the
streets in the busiest hour of the dav
and finding an object hidden at a consid-
cradle distance by a committee not of
his selection. In Oakland, according to
three and a half column account in the
Times of January 18th, fifteen proni-
nent citizens superintended the test.
| Three of them secreted an article not
known to Tyndall, and went through
several streets, and hid the article in the
the committee Tyndall was securely blind
folded, and one of the committee took his
hand. Tyndall at once dragged his com
panion, the group of watchers following
and surrounding him, into the street into
a large crowd; then up one istreet and
down another, rapidly around blocks, UP
a stairway into Harmon's office. and
speedily found the article cunningly hid
den. His next test was to drive blind
folded from Oakland TO q distant noint
agreed upon by the committee-it was
Piedmont Springs. The vehicle was
three-seated, the team spirited one from
a livery establishment. The COMMITTEES
occupied the seats, Tyndall in front blind
folded. He drove through crowded
streets, with loose reins and sharply ap-
plying the whip, until the team broke
frightened into a gallop. Several times if
seemed that the vehicle must be capsized
or collide with cars and wagons: he did
in fact collide with a cart. A slower gait
was then taken, and the journey made
through many streets and over crowded
highways to the point agreed upon by
