MUSIC AND DRAMA.
Hoyt's ga Black Sheep"

"A Black Sheep" comes to the Port
land Theatre tomorrow and Wednesday
evenings, for its first performance in this
CITY,. The play has just completed run
of twelve weeks at the Park Theatre,
Boston, and there won the name of being
one of the best and funniest coined les
that it's popular author has ever written
The advance sale of seats has been ex-
tremely large, and the chances are that
every seat in the house will be sold before
the nights, the usual case when a Hoyt
play is presented here. One of the pleas
ATTEST features of the engagement will be
the fact that the original cast is to APP
pear. Mr.. Hoyt classes his new piece as
farce comedy and competent critics
pronounce it one OF the most dexterous
blendings of comedy character and spec
ialties ever presented to the public. It's
situations are side-splitting, and the d.
alogue extremely keen, with true Gill
bertian flavor. ripping stream of
melody runs through the piece, broken
only by the sharp turn of witty lines.
From beginning to end it forms a most
captivating symphony of mirth and
music.
