"A TRIP TO CHINATOWN" |"

Like Tennyson's brook, Hoyt's IA Trip to Chinatown' seems to run on and on. This merry musical satire comes to us direct from its unprecedented run of over 600 nights at Hoyt's theater, New York city, and will bs ssen on next Wednesday evening exactly as when ented at the Metropolitan theater.
 The company Mir. Hoyt has selected to interpret his work includes some of the cleverest comedians aud singers now on the stage. The piece itself needs no intro- ducng, as most every theater- goer in the country is acquainted with the fact that "A Trip to Chinatown" was written "only to amuseo and has no pretension5 to plot. Several new songs have been added, all of which will prove tuneful and catchy, as MT. Hoyt has never been known to fail in writing topical song each year that has not caught the fancy of the public. r
 Mir. Frank Lane, who plays the part of Welland Strong, heads the list of come- dians and promises to be as funny as his the Ben Gay of the company, is just as out with the boys. Lotte Mortimer as FIirt is more captivating than ever. Georgie Bryton as Willie Grow is thor oughy up to the times for youngster, while Sara Maddern as the gushing widow, Mrs. Guyer, and in fact the entire company are deserving of special mention.
 The scenery costumes and properties have all been renovated since it's production at the home theater and are carried with the company. MT. Hoyt intends to present "A Trip to ChinatoWnn in a manner that will leave little to be desired from the amusement loving public.

uruE RuRGIAR u

Manager O'Brien offers to his patrons for his holiday attraction Christmas afteru oon cessful play, "The Burglar.'
 The central character presented in 'The Burglar is such novel one, and is pos- sessed of so much two -sidedness, at the same time so seemingly natural, that the audience marvels at the authors con- ception. A burglar on a midnight exploit is rather pleasantly surprised at the ap. pearance of a little tot, who amuses him in a very astonishing way all the while he is preparing his plunder. Before his de- parture from the house he discovers in Editha his own child, whose mother he has cruelty wronged and deserted. The scene of recognition is one calculated to evoke no end of interest and to keep the audience absorbed until the climax of the play. During the unfolding of the plot comedy vein of genteel quality prevails. It may thus be said with impunity that "The Burglaro lacks no elements necessary to acoeptan nee by all claases of theater- goers.
