Marie Jansen's fret appearance in this
city as star will take place on Friday
evening next at the Hyperion theater, when
she will be seen in "Delmonico's at g." The
piece is a new one, but Miss Jansen comes
not as an amateur or an untried genius,
but as a widely known and highly admired
performer. She Is one of the few comic
opera singers who can act, and when she
created the leading part in "Festherbrain, !"
at the Criterion theater, London, proved
herself an excellent comedienne and thor
oughly conveyed the spirit of the part. In
her new play she impersonstes a variety
queen, whom she makes very entertai n
ing young woman. A carefully selected
company supports Miss Jansen and the
entire performance has been pronounced
agreeable and diverting. Sale of seats now
open.

of excellence. Manager Poll seems to have
been especially fortunate In securing the
best high class variety attractions for his
theater, and the people are showing their
appreciation of his efforts by generously
patronizing him.
