Entertainments.

A large audience saw vivacious Vernona
Jarbeau and her large company of sterling
artists in Starlight" at the Hyperion last
evening. This very popular little lady has
always maintained an enviable reputation
for giving the amusement-loving public
something to appreciate and last night was
no exception to the rule. Jarbeau needs no
praise. She is simply unspproachable in
her line. Her company, too, was an ex-
cellent one, containing such actors as
George Pixley and Ross Snow, and these
surrounded by host of others, all ex-
tremely clever, could not fail to please.
Mr.. Pixley won deserved applause by his
tramp specially and from beginning to
end the audience found many opportunities
to applaud. In word the performance
could not hardly have been more meri-
torious.
"The Masked Ball." will be presented
this evening. Although John Drew and
his admirable company have been present.
ing it for over year, it has lost none of
It's original popularity with the public, and
is as much in favor now as 1t was a year
ago. A large house Is assured and fine
entertainment.
Sol Smith Russell appears on Monday
evening next In his new play "April
Weather" This will be another rare treat.
Sale of seats now open.
Dockstader's minstrels will be at the
Hyperion on Wednesday evening next

The dramatic novelty of the immediate
future in this city will be the first presen-
tation here of the New York-London- Berlin
sensational comedy. "Charley's Aunt"
which is to be presented at the Hyperion
thester Thanksgiving afternoon and night.
This comedy is not only well along on Its
frst year of American life at the standard
theater in New York, but 1t is still the
most popular success in London, where 1t
has not ceased running since its original
production at the Globe theater last De-
cember. 1t is the only play that ran
through the entire summer in London, and
is booked to remain at the Globe theater
throughout the present season. Sale of
seats now open.
GRAND OPERA HOUSE.
Another packed house greeted the popu-
lar Irish comedian, William Barry,
aud his excellent company, in "The
Rising Generation" last evening.
Barry himself Is inimitable. The
play is intensely humorous and enjoyable,
and pathos and mirth are judiciously min
gled. The several songs and dances which
predominant throughout the play were
heartily encored. The Anal performances
will be given this afternoon and evening
"The Other Man" will be presented BY
one of Charles Frohman's companies the
first three nights next week. 1t is q most
laughable burlesque on the system of con-
ecription which prevails in France. The
French version ran for ten months. The
English version ran one hundred nights at
the Garden thester, New York.
