MUSIC AND DRAMA.
The Star Gazer.

The star gazer has a plot, to be sure,
but that need not worry anybody. as the
numerous specialties, catchy songs and
amusing features keep the audience in
such state of hilarity that the plot cuts
no figure, and it is not until the tag of
the piece is reached that the spectator
recalls the fact that the piece started on
with plot. With such a vehicle for Joe
Otis talents and surrounded by the com
pany he haslselected to aid him in inter-
preting it, OFT stands with success
assured. He also is in the field with an
up to da to burlesque on 'Trilby.

McCallum's Theatre.

The "Lost Paradise" drew two more
large houses yesterday afternoon and eve
ming At night every seat in the house
was taken and many were obliged to
put off seeing the piece another night.
The audience was not only large but
very enthusiastic and the play went with
a roar. The new effects are good and
add to the tpiece. Don't fail to see it
this week. Buy your seats at Stock
bridges and be sure of them.
A trio of very clever and talented
women, Sidney Armstrong, Emily Rigl'
and Annie Lewis, have been engaged by
Managers Atkinson and Calder for their
production of Sutton Vane's ''In Sight of
St. Paul's'' at the Bowdoin Square
Theatre, Boston in September.
"Trilby" has figured in the magazines
in books and in the dramaa, and now the
lady with the matchless feet figures in
burlesque. As she assured the tremen-
dously large audience at the Boston Mus,
cum, she Hgot there with both feet
and the delighted spectators agreed with
her and heartily applauded every bit OF
absurdity in the burlesque, which was
brought to Boston with the appreciation
of a long run at the Garrick Theatre, New
York, where it had successful summer
run when given by the same company.

and was billed to make its next ap-
pearance at Dubuque. Manager
Shugart. who seems to have been
the solitary guiding genius of the
reorganized club. would give the
players no satisfaction as to who
would furnish the sinews of war.
would furnish no advance money or
give satisfactory assurance that any
lucre would be forthcoming for sal.
aries, and as the players were not in
the base ball business either for their
health or amusement, they con-
cluded that the best thing to do I'M
der the circumstances was to retire
at once. a decision that was immedi-
ately put into effect. As result.
Clinton is once more without base
ball club, and the indications are
that the void will be made perma-
nent. 1t is said that the PLAYERS of
defunct Cub No. are all signing
for the payment OF salaries. which
does not seem to be forthcoming.
