NEW YoRK, Jan. 23.--"Old Hutch"
wants to sell out He has been in the
grocery business at 81 Pearl street for
nearly year and the trials and tribula-
tions incident to such a career have told
somewhat on his spirits. He has grown
moody and trifie restless. He still dresses
in what he considers the appropriate garb
for a groceryman. His trousers are of
dark, heavy material and waistcoat to
match He doesn't wear coat, but his
brown flannel shirt is usually surmounted
by a paper collar. No one would recognize
il this guise tue famous b. P. Hutchinson,
the dealer in grain on the Chicago Board Of
Trade, at times repured to be worth

1t must be confessed that "Old Hutch"
has not made a brilliant success in the
grocery line. His forte seems to be in buy
lug rather than selling. Sheritf's sales con-
stitute weakness with him and his stock
as a consequence covers a wide range. Now

story thus:

OF a number Of these mistakes. On one &C.

plays the part with spirit and intelligence.
During the play Miss Pixley sings several
catchy songs written for her by Harry
braham. Among them are "The College
Drill" and ''The Roof Garden"
About the oldest scheme for the Chicago
fair is q revolving theater, which seems
likely to be erected. center portion Of
the house will be circular and turn as
wanted. It will contain five apartments,
each of which VIII seat 200 persons. Just
outside this revolving center are to be seven
separate scenic chambers. each with its own
stage and footlights. The audience will
enter from the street into a vesti bule, then
pass into one OF the audience compartments.
When the latter is full of people the whole
center moves slowly until the audience
room is opposite the first stage. While the
performance Is taking place there the second
audience room is opposite the street en-
trance and is being filled. In this manner
the shift takes place at intervals OF from
i've to fifteen minutes, and each audience
has been rolled around 30 that they have
seen all the performances on the seven diff
ferent stages The first audience room then
comes opposite the place of exit, aud the
people therein pass out.
Robert Downing, the eminent tragedian,
Is the Joint author with A. d. Hall ESQ, of
very entertaining romance called "a
True Knight" which tells in new and vivid
form the story of Damon and Pythias. MIR.
Downing became interested in this story
through his membership in the order Of
knights of Pythias, of which he is on all
occasions an enthusiastic panegyrist, as
well as from his study of john Benim's
play. His love for the order and
his desire to promote Its vel
fare caused him to undertake the writing of
the book, which Is in the best sense a COM
mentary on the principles of the order The
volume gives evidence OF much careful re-
search into the institutions, the customs and
the history of ancient Syracuse. Naturally
the works very popular with Mr. Down
ings brother knights. Mr.. Hall, his collabor-
ator in this work is the author of the sue
cessful romantic drama, Richard the Lion

at the theater next week Monday.

acts of rollicking fun-was then presented.
The story of The Junior Partner is
Frenchy in its composition and excruti-
stingly comical in the situations. A mother
with marriageable daughter, seeking a
husband with money, forces young dentist
into matrimony when he is engaged to
another woman. The girl he marries is en-
gagged to his partner, and OF course queer
and amusing complications arise as re-
suit. The parts are admirably acted from
that Of the junior partner to that of the
chambermaId. Every member OF the COM
pany is a skilled actor and well suited to the
role for which they are cast. Mr.. Miller
and Mr.. Mills acted the part of the two
young dentists easily and naturally. Mr..
Riley was a "terror" as a patient Mrs.
Mckee Rankin, Miss May Irwin and Miss
Emily Bancker were excellent in their
several parts.
