Mi,vo's City Club Spectacular Farce
Comedy company entertained two large
audiences OF holiday pleasure seekers in
the Westminster theater yesterday
afternoon and evening by good
variety performance interspersed
with groups of living statues in
big frame et the rear of the stage. II
was just the sort OF entertainment for the
day, and for that matter for any day. The
program included "The City Club at
Midnight" and brought out nearly the full
strength of the company OF fcomedians and
scantily costumed young women. 1t was a
roll!cking exhibition followed by
the billions in musical selections; James
Lowry and Nellie Hanley in a sketch;
Fannie Everett who sang; Ruby Marion
ia her FaiHbe1r- dance the Niaeees in a
knock about sketch and Lew Hawkins the
negro comedian. The bin concluded with
the amusing burlesque entitled "a Tempt
ing Town; or Wicked New York" This
again brought out the full strength of the
company and allowed tine young women
to display themselves in handsome and
not-much- them costumes. They were
attractive to the eye, and the parts played
by the comedians and speciality perform
ers found considerable favor from the
theater full of apparently entertained
spectators. The same bill will be offered
every afternoon and evening this week.

factory season, and by the 5th OF the
coming month will be once more in his
studio at the Ponce de Leon.
We can find Mr.. Whitaker at almost any
time of day, and are always sure of seeing
something new. Most of his work the
last year has been in fruit, and very few
pieces remain in his possession. Three
large canvases. two of which are new,
will probably be exhibited together. Mr..
Whitaker has called them "The Source
of the River" ats Path to the Sea-" and
"Tbe Ocean," In the most important, we
stand upon hilltop on bright October
day, aud over the great stretch of country
spread before us, catch glimpses OF the
blue ribbon Of water as it winds into the
distance.
Mr.. Kenyon has been couple OF weeks
In his old studio i'm the What Cheer build
ing after most enjoyable summer
abroad. That he is one OF the men who
are already good and are steadily becom-
ing better Is seen in his work of the past
season. There is little but sketches at
present--France, Venice, Holland and the
Thames. Mr.. Kenyon doesn't like to stay
long in one place, but did object to being
hurried on from one picturesque town of
Southern France by the small pox.

of that same revolution repre-
sented to the board OF directors
that this tea party was not a stag affair,
and that they should be allowed to sh re
the expense and honour of the OCCASION.
The sd. A. r." have already proved their
worth by placing a slab upon the Gaspee
building, on the corner of South Main
and Planet streets. Here stood the old
Sabin Inn where the historic little piece
of incendiarism was planned, and
it was but few years ago that it
gave way to the present structure. The
request of the ladies could not be re-
fused, and now, under the direction of
joint committee OF the two societies, the
work is being rapidly pushed, and, il
nothing happens, the memorial will be
unveiled on the coming anniversary of
that patriotic function. The design is by
Mr.. Alfred Stone, and the work of cast
ing in bronze will be done by the Gorham
company.
Another project in which these two So
cieties might well take the initiative is the
erection of a statue of General Nathaniel
Greene. Mr.. w. Granville Hastings is
preparing a model for exhibition which
will create some interest in the undertak
ing, and then it should be pushed. Mr..
Hastings has also under way life size
bust OF His Excellency ID. Russell Brown.

Whatever comedian William VI. Crane
offers ought to be something worthy OF
considerable attention because he has
much to say regarding the betterment of
the American stage and because he Is one
of the most prominent players now be-
fore the public. His annual visit
to this city is always looked
forward to for the reason
that he never disapponts. Mr.. Crane Is
not great actor, the mans personality is
always strongly in evidence, but his stage
craft is very complete and his knowledge
of what tickles the fancy and his skill
in effect by resort TO certain taking
tricks is thorough. Coupled with this
is strong personal magnetisp, and the
combination is the keynote of'his success.
He never allows anything TO be slackly
done and his supporting players are al
ways selected for their particular
adaptibiiity TO the several parts.
Then again his attention is always
bestowed upon the stage dressing with
the most complete results. The scenery
is always nearly perfect. Mr.. Crane pre-
scnted his newest comedy entitled,
" "Brother John" in the Providence
Opera house yesterday afternoon
large audiences. Martha Mortons play is
simple, it offers nothing new and It's lead
ing part makes no great demand for
consummate actor. Indeed, any we'll
drilled player, provided he was
prime favorite, could make a strong
impression as the old Halter, because the
most taking way to the sympathy of the
ntot oil "a

family in everything. He let's them

whirl and get snubbed and scorched by
the falseness of society. An experience
entirely new to these unsophisticated
Connecticut village folk. Then they want
to go home after passing through the va
rious stages madefamiliar in popular novels
of the day. Back they turn TO the old
home where tangled threads are un-
raveled and everything ends smoothly.
Truly there was no surprise nor
anything new in all this, and the
part of Brother John was fur short of
making satisfying demands upon the
wealth of capacity possessed by Mr..
Crane. Pathos and mirth were inter-
twined in play that was pure and whole
some in tonc and elevating in
sentiment. 1t Yas delightful per-
formance and afforded much
pleasure. The Providence Opera
house stage never had more complete
scenery and the sets were among the
pleasurabie things Of the entertainment.
The company appeared to excellent advan-
tdge, and the several parts were played
as they ought to- be. Mr.. Crane
had his New York company and that
alone was worth seeing. Brother John"
will be played until FRIDAY evening, when
Mr.. Crane will present "on Probation"

claim to originality or novelty in its de-
sign or treatment. But its stirring scenes
and picturesque tableau aroused much en-
thusiasm, and barring incidental
features in which exaggerated
types of situation and fren-

tency and merit, the performance was
commendable and effective. Mr.. Dowling
