of the popular spectacular pantomme
"Fantasma." The llahlons ara. the
acknowledged producers Of spectacular
drama, and they have no rivals in this
class of dramatic presentation, All
that is left to the stage OF the old-time
pantomime belongs 10 The original Han
Ion Bros. They have maintained their
popularity throughout the present gen
Grafton, and today their names are as
familiar 10 thcater-gOerS as that OF
Barnum. They have arranged their
pantOmime on the good ola dramatic
plane, and have kept ii fresh and enter
tanning by constantly adding the TRICK
inventions of their wonderful mechani-
cal genius. In Its present condition
"FantaSma' is undoubtedly the most
amusing and respleudent pantOmime of
the day. Since its appearance at the
Grand opera house ut high prices two
seasons ago, the adrOit llanlOns have
made repeated tripS-intO the haunts and
caves of the fairy realms, and are SAID
To have discovered sufficient new won
dcrs in the way Of beautiful transforms
tiOnS and numerous mechanical tricks
to entitle it To the dignity OF an entire
new production. From the moment the
curtain rises until 1t falls upon the
finale ta6leauX all is activity and mo-
ton on the stage, and the action pro-
crosses rapidly and with almost kaleldo-
scOpic effect. The many lady and chill
dren patrons of the BliOu will hail with
delight the coming of thiSattractlon, for
both young and old love the fantastic
and the improbable. The production
this season will be stronger IN every
particular than ever before. 1t Is an
entertainment of diversion and with
host of interesting features. A cast of
superior strength, headed by George Ill.
Adams, the king of pantOmime clowns.
will present the piece.

cent spectacular production OF Sardou's
cleopatra" There is no more inter
eSting figure in history than the famous

scented. The same company that has

several years will De seen here.
Rosa Miller is to be the vocal SoloiSt
at the seventh DAM concert, which &C.
ours at Harmonic hall this afternoon.
She is little girl, not even yet in her
teens, but her singing is said to be very
remarkable, being both pleasing and
artistic. The spectacle of a child sing
ing before large audience. supported
by an orchestra of thirty-ive pieces,
will constitute quite a novelty. Those
who have heard her sing predict that
she will create as great sensation as
did Josie Schaller a few weeks ago by
Il A
gramme of the orchestra itself is an eX-
cellent one.
