entertainments.

Of Felix Morris, who appears here this
evening at the Hyperion, the Boston Daily
Globe says: 1.-THE debut of Mr.. Felix Nor
ris in this city as star attracted large
audience to the Hollis street theater last
evening and cordial reception was ex-
tended to the star and his company. None
but a versatile and specially able artist
would attempt to portray three widely con-
trasted characters in q single evening when
the success of each play depends entirely
upon the manner In which the principal
role is interpreted. This diff 'ult task was
admirably performed by Mr.. Morris"
There are three distinct plays to bs given
here tonight, the same ones referred to by
the Boston Globe. Tkis remarkable actor
will be seen here in the same strong con-
trasting CONSIDERATIONS, viz, Count de
Rohan, in "Ths Rose"; Joe, an old soldier
in "The Vsgabond," and Mr.. Moses, in
"Moses." The productions will be hand
somely staged and dressed, and the an
nouncsment evidences genuine amusement
of q high order. All who have seen here
Mr. Morris when he was leading man In
the Rosins Vokes company of days past
need not be assured ct delightful treat In
the three plays to night at the Hyperion.
Sale of seats now open.
