ton OF the Player at this theater on the
goth and 2lst insts., are being vigor-
ously carried on. Mr.. Hanley came
here on a social visit to the parents OF
his wife, well known here as Miss Edith
Lemmert, and it was not his intention
to give performance until he should
reach this point on his regular dramatic
tour. With characteristic energy, how
ever, he has made elaborate prepare

which he is by this time so we'll iden-
titled. The reports upon Miss Lem
merits victories have made all her
friends and acquaintances anxious to
see her upon the boards; while Mr..
Hanley's reputation as an actor is OF the
most attractive kind. The additional
features on this occasion will be the APP
pearance of Mrs. II. Ludlam in the cast
and also the professional debut of Miss
Gertrude Foster. The former lady ia so
we'll known here that it is safe to say
that any part she is willing to under
take will be made an artistic success.
Miss Foster has appeared in amateur
performances in this city on several
occasions, when she has taken leading
parts, always with credit to herself. She
has the good wishes of her many friends
for her euccees in the profession she is
about to enter, and will doubtless meet
with hearty reception on her fret ap
pearance as a professional here,
