born actress as well as a bewitching woman
Of the world. The mountings are superb,
the scenery executed by master artists and
the company one of the best that has yet

Williams Academy.

Many fresh features arc promised in the
French Folly Company, which will open at

known managers, Bobby Manchester and

Barry and Fax Together Again.

In the first act of "McKenna's Filtration" ;"
which is to be presented at the Grand Opera
House tomorrow night and during the week
by those reunited comedians, Barry and
Fay, there is q picturesque set of scenery
shown. II represents a street in the
Harlem district of Manhattan Island,
and it evidences the rapid development of
building operations in the upper section OF
New York. One one side is a row of tumble
down shanties, relics of a mode of exist
ence almost out OF date, now in New York,
for it shows the style of habitation which
was used during that decade when the
rights of the squatters were successfully
maintained against the claims of persons
who had purchased a title to the property
At the rear OF the stage is row of those
modern inventions, the improved French
fiat apartment house, and on the right hand
side is n preclpitOuS rock, the one solid bar
rier which must be removed before the army
of Improvement at work in view OF the
audience can complete its task. This scene
is no fancy sketch: it is realistic to the
utmost limit of truthfulness and it repre-
sents a scene pictured with Photographic
fidelity OF plot OF land which Mr.. Fay
purchased some ten years ago, and which is
now undergoing process of Improvements.
The scenery of the third act of the comedy
is also pictorial in character, for it repre-
sents a view on the Harlem river.
The performances at the Grand will afford
the first opportunity to Pittsburgers of see-
ing Barry and Fay together, for each of the
last two times that "Mckenna's Flirta tiOn"
was presented here, Mr.. Fay was absent
from the cast. 1t will also be the last time
that Barry and Fay will be seen here for
more than q year, as contracts exists which
call for them to produce a new play called
"The Rising Generation for run in New
York, Boston, Philadelphia and Chicago
next season. Special attention is called to
the fact that the matinee performances OF
this play will begin at . O'Clock sharp and
will terminate at Ass O'Clock, thus enabling
the ladies and children in attendance to
reach their homes in ample time for the
evening meal.

Personal Gossip.

Lillian Russell is good fellow. You
wouldn't expect such a spoiled child OF
fortune to have so few airs and affectations.
In fact she is a surprise of the stage for more
reasons than one. She is really better look

quarters a better idea OF the dimensions of
her beautv-it is simply immense. But what
charms you most is her good-natured, out

and glories in it.
On Friday night at the Duquesne some
red roses were thrown to the fair Lillian

flowers taken apparently from the corsage

which filed the two lower boxes The
singer looked pleased when she received the
roses from Mr.. Coffin's hands. few min

Two interesting incidents in Mr.. Wizards
career are worth noting: They say he is GO

and become an American citizen, which
would bespeak his sound sense, but is not
likely. He is going to play StyLock and
Hamlet in Boston, and in the 1ormer part,
at least. i expect him to astonish the
natives. Hamlet is such a complex char
acter and so many good actors have come to
grief in it that it is hard to tell what Mr..
Willard will do in it. A well-studied and
artistic Interpretation is certain, anyhow.

in reality is an individual whose forehead is

fourteen inches, yet it is perfectly formed.
There is nothing repulsive about it. Among
