Mr.. Lee W. TOwnshend has arrived In ad-
vance of the Stuart Robson "She Stoops to
Conquer party, which, after playing in
Stockton on Saturday evening next, will be
here in time to open at the Baldwin on
Monday, the 18th. MI. Robson brings the
entire scenery and properties of the comedy
with him, even to the ale mug that Tony
Lumpkin uses in the carouse at the "Tbree
jolly Pigeons" To do this required a car
sixty feet long. Robson will set the stage
with realism of the period. and as his people
are all perfect in study, we may look for
complete performance Of Oliver GOldsmith's
immortal work. Sale of seats for the Rob-
son engagement begins this morning at the
Baldwin box-office.
Miss Minna K. Gale appeared at the Bald
win last evening as Parthenia in Maria
LovelPs classic drama, "Ingomar, the Bar
barian," to a fair attendance. The Greek
maiden suits Miss Gales style, and she PLAYED
the role smoothly all through, being partlcu-
larly effective when she opposes the love
power of the feminine nature to the saw
agerY in the heart Of the AllemaniC chief, and
subdues it. This evening she will repeat
ROsaind in "As You Like It."
Maude Granger finished Inherited" at
the Bush-street last evening. Tonight and
tomorrow night she will present Camille"
appearing in the leading part of Marguerite
Gautier. Granger revels in the goSsamer
life and ptiful death of the fair Parisienne.

lines of Dumas fils' picture with free
hand and in cOlored crayons
"The Club Friend" Of Sydney ROsenfeld,
whom he presents to a crowded audience
every evening at the New California The
public is not likely to tire Of Stuyyesant
FIlbert very soon, nor of those in whose
company we find him. Miss Evelyn Oaks is
made charming in the hands of Miss IsadOre
Rush. or course, Mr. Reeds part is the
central figure of the comedy; but it does not
absorb all its excellence, nor dwarf the
merits of the other parts.
Len Growers roaring farce comedy "Afy
SOn-in-Law" is nightly putting the AIcazar
audience in good humOr with itself, and
will no doubt continue to do so till the end
of the week, when Mr.. j. \. Long brings
forward Gillette's The Private Secretary"
a piece TO which Long owes q good deal Of
professional reputation as well as some
heavy doctors bills Mr.. George Osbourne,
soon to resume his place In the managerial
firm of this theater, will, we understand,
after short visit to his own vine and fig
tree at Fresno, start East on fishing eXcur-
sion Tor all the dramatic novelties that may
be attracted by the bait on his financial
hook.
Miss Lorraine Hollis IS doing her best to
make The 'Tigress" a success at the Bijou.
The name of the play inspires the idea of
some strong acting; but from the way the
Subject-matter is treated by the company
the animal has evidently had its claws cut.
Miss Hollis Is a perseyering little woman.
and deserves encouragement, which we
hope she will receive. Next Saturday and
Sunday evening she will appear as Stephanie
de Mohrivart in Herman Meriyale's For
get-Me-N OP'-the great play that has al
ways kept JctfreyS Lewis IN remembrance.
