MUSIC AND DRAMA.


This evening at the Portland Theatre
A Lucky Hit will be presented for the
first time in this city. The play is one
of those com binations of mirth, music,
dancing and concomitant funny situa-
tions termed, for want of more appro-
pirate appellation, farce comedies. 1t
will Introduce to our theatre goers a
trio of stars in the persons of the three
ST. Felix sisters. These young ladies
have appeared in this city before, the
last time with Geo. S. Knight, and are
well remembered as three of the best
character singers and dancers ever seen
here. In their new roles they have ex-
cellent opportunities for much clever
work, and are said to impr We their
chances in very acceptable manner. The
supporting company is excellent, among
its members being Billy Chace, the au-
thor of the piece, by the way; Chas.
Whelan; Ed Curtis and Miss May Moore.
Charley's Aunt.
The presentations of "Charley's Auntn
at the Portland Theatre next Monday
and Tuesday evenings promise to be
quite the society events of-the season in
the theatrical line. Already several large
theatre parties have been made up, one
of nearly twenty having obtained seats
for Monday evening. A more suitable

cal season of 1894 in this city than
"Charley's Aunt could not be thought
of. Portland has we'll upheld the rep
utation it has made CT being one of the
best theatrical cities in the country, and
it has been a bright spot for many COM
panies in this. the worst theaJric al sea-
son in most parts of the country that
managers have ever commended with.
Notes.
Two OF the passengers on the steam
ship Normannia, which sailed Thursday
for Hamburg. were Mr.. and Mrs. Max
Figman. The passenger list was the
first public announcement that Mr.. Fig
man was married. The Mrs.. Figman
named on the list was, according to
some of her acquaintance, Miss Sadie
Martinez, the actless. There has been
report that the two were engaged for
some time.
