MUSIC AND DRAMA.
Paderewski.

his first appearance this season at City
Hall in the fifth Stockbridge. The
merits of this great performer are too
well known to need repetition here.
There will be remarkably fine audi
ance in attendance, gathered from all
parts of the state. Mr.. Stockbridge an
nounces that during the performance OF
each number the doors will be closed.
1t is hoped every holder of ticket will
be on hand promptly at s o'clock before
the concert commences. Tomorrow af-
ternoon Paderewski will appear in the
Sd matinee course, at 2 O'Clock. Good
seats still to be had at Stockbridge s
during the day.
Kajanka.
Tonight the great combination of pan
tomine, acrobatic, musical and vaude-
vile features known as ''Kajanka' will
be seen at Portland Theatre. The Japs,
who are with the show, are wonderful.
AS matter of fact all the work of the
Japanese troupe with this company is
phenomenal, and as a newspaper critic
wrote the other day, lit may be hack
neyed to say so, but the act of these
oriental maryels is alone worth double
the price of admission Another SEN
sational feature of Kaianka is the novel
and remarkable dancing of the four
young women imported direct from
Alhambra theatre, London, England.
They are masters, or per aaps, to be more
correct, mistresses of the art, and while
they are clever they are also modest.
There is not an objectional feature in
the entire evening of fun.
One of the Bravest.
Charles McCarthy's beautiful comedy
drama ssOne of the Bravest,'' will be
seen at Portland Theatre next Wednes
day and Thursday evenings. This COM

of whom are artists, also six beautiful
snow white Arabian horses, and two of
the cleverest children ever seen on the
American stage. Charles Mccarthy and
William Cronin are at the helm of the
company. They are both old time favor
ties. The realistic fire scene in the sec
ond act is really grand piece of stage
realism In this scene the six horses
are introduced.
