The Wizard Of the Nile.-The second an

favorable impression made here by this or
ganization last season in THE Wizard of
the Nile Is still regarded one Of the
events OF the season. While there are few
comic opera stars who have gained SO great
a reputation in this country there are none
who have achieved that end in one season
as was done last year by Mr.. Daniels. The
opera also has proven itself far more meri-
torious than the majority of such works.

pany OF singing and dancing comedians
and pretty girls, it never fails to please
The company presenting this farce-comedy

teuse, better known as the American
r. ugere. Miss Stuart was secured by

children from ST. Vincents and st. Joseph's
Orphan Asylum attended the matinee at
the Bijou Family Theater this afternoon
as the guests of Manager Whitesell. Pete
Baker and his company entertained the
little ones. who We're very much pleased
with the treat, and the performance was
seen with enraptured eyes that never
ceased to grow in wonderment. The graft
fication and pleasure of the little ones
amply repaid Mr.. Whitesell for his gener-
Gus Invitation.
"Slaves of Gold'-"Slaves Of Cold is the
attraction which Manager Whitesell has
secured for the Bijou next week. Dur
irg its two years of existence it has
duplicated its success at every point
and is now regarded as one of the
leading dramas. While it abounds in
startling climaxes and thrilling situa-
tons, it is not on the order of the sen-
satioi.al melodrama. 1t has many excit-
ing scenes. among them being the BURST
ing Of a water tank in a mine, where are
buried the villain and the heroine. One
of the handSomest scenes Is that of an
apple orchard with the blossoms in full
bloom. Arnold Reeves, at the head of the
company. has surrounded himself with a
strong contingent of recognized players.
The supporting cast includes E. Guy Span
gler. Ed. J. Heron. Charles Herbert, NJ NJ
Murray, William l. Clark, katherine Hunt
and katherine Carlisle

ager Kernan's attraction at the Lyceum
next week will be the Rentz-Santley Bur-
lesque Company. This well-known organi-
cation is in its fifteenth successive year of
prosperity. Manager Leavitt presents a
program this season which is made up en-
tirely of up-to-date novelties. The cur
tain rises on the new musical extrava
ganza entitled Paris and Pleasure" de-
scribed as an exceptional bit of repartee
and wit, arranged by Chas. Lovenberg
The olio which follows includes Dawley and
Waldron, Curtis and Gordon, the Gilmore
Sisters, Fisher and Grow ell, the Sisters
Engstron and Jos. j.. Sullivan, the inimit-
able Irish comedian. The concluding feat
ure of the entertainment is satirical
burlesque entitled Gay Life in New York, "
in which will be introduced a number of
pretty girls arrayed in natty costumes and
a corps of clever comedians.
