AT O'BRIEN'S.

The great artist will appear at the spe- cial matinee this afternoon in Josephine, Empress of the French" which is well known for our theater-goers. Its state ly movement, its artistic and literary beauty, it's interesting treatment of events which immediately precede and follow the divorce of Josephine, its spec tacular features in the way of handsome costuming and picturesque groupings, all these have won it the hearty approval of the public. Rheas performances have always attracted audiences of the better class.
 Her interpretation of the title role is a careful and thoughtful piece of acting. Evidently her study of the part has been a work of love, for always she is in close sympathy with the character and puts her whole soul into it's presentation. She invests it with such magnetism that one does not wonder that Murat throws down his sword after the divorce and refuses to bear it longer in Napoleon's service. The sympathy of the audience is entirely with the empress whom the emperor has put aside. Rhea's support has been well selected and the thorough drilling the company has had results in a smooth and agreeable performance.
 A great amount of interest is being manifested in Rhea's performance to- night, when she will present Schiller's well known drama of the life of that fam ous historical character, Mary Queen of Scots." Rhea is by nature fitted for this character and although this is the first season that she has played it, her success has been most complete and grat- flying to herself as well as her managers and the public. A production of the play has been made and the costumes are both rich and beautiful.

ROLAND REED.

The annual appearance of that prime favorite, MT. Roland Reed, at the opera house is always a pleasant event in the theatrical year. MT Reed has grown steadily in popular favor, and today stands pre-eminent as a portrayer of leg itimate eccentric comedy roles. Friday evening next he will appear presenting for the first time comedy from the pen of MT. George H. Broadhurst with the title of ''The Wrong MT. Wright" The play tells an interesting and highly anus ing story and gives MT. Reed splendid op- portunties in a novel role. It is said to be the best character this popular actor has ever had. The scenes of the play are laid at Old Point Comfort. MT. Reed surrounded himself with an exceedingly clever company, which includes that charming actress, Miss Isadore Rush, who has delightful role that is really new to the stage. She will doubtless sur prise her many admirers with her charm ing toilets.

"A BOWERY BIRL."

"A Bowery Girl" with all the natural ness of her surroundings in the great metropolis, characters and all, will be presented at OBrien's tomorrow night. There probably has never been a melo- drama of New York life more carefully staged and faultlessly produced, and to that reason may be ascribed great deal of the success that attended the play last season. This season Manager Harry Williams presents the play with an en- tirely new and better company, headed by the well known comedienne, Florrie West, who came here direct from London, where she had made big success, to as- sunle the leading role of "The Bowery Girl" which, it is needless to say, in her hands will receive clever and artistic treatment. Other members of the com pany are Carrie Ezier, a well known sou brette, who plays the tough girl; John R. Cumpson, Joseph Rawley, Mart J. Cody, Bart w. Wallace, Geo. w. Mitchell, Helen Jones, Mamie Ryan, Georgia Les ter and Little Jess.

FOOT BALL NOTES.

The Birmingham Athletic clubs foot ball team are working hard for the ap- preaching game with the Nashville Ath- letic club next Saturday at West End park. The team proves fair to eXcel the famous team of '92. Most of the old men are back in their places and new ones are showing up to be hard to beat Jim Shelly the invincible, is back and will play left half back. Jim is now in the pink of condition and 1t Is safe to say will hold up his end of the game.
 Frank Cahalan, the captain, is also fast getting back in his old style. He IS a whole team in himself. His long suit Is interfering in which there is none can beat him. He with Jim Shelly, Norman Jones and Park Walker back of the line it will prove to any opponents a danger ous stumbling block. The line men are shape. Jim Smiley at center with such men as Reigs and O'Burk at guards will prove @ stone wall when Nashville thinks they have snap in this direction.
 Sid Jones and Everett Meade at tackles are as good as can be found anywhere; both are good, quick, snappy players ana will always be found right in the push.
 For ends there are four or five candi- dates. Dick Going is a sure thing on left while for the other end Jim Hughes, John Kimball and Lucian Brown all are fight ing hard for the place. With the excep- tion of the ends the whole team has been decided upon and are right down to good hard work.
 With such a team as this and with the practice they are getting Nashville had better look out for a good dose, for our boys are surely going to hold up the rep utation of Birmingham Athletic club.
 The Nashville club is a very strong one so it won't be any body's game until 1t is over. MT. Geo. Stallings, the famous base ball player and manager of the De- troit team of '95, plays half for the Nash vile Athletic club, is considered great player Perhaps the best man on the team is Rean, the Indian who plays the other half back, is a very fast runner and good dodger. ..
 Swango, their coach, who plays full back is heady player with lots of eXpe- rience. Has played on such teams as Center College and Louisville Athletic club. The team averages 175 pounds.
 All lovers of the sport should be on hand next Saturday, the 7th, for they will surely see one of the best games ever played in the city for both teams are fighting for the southern championship and both say they will have it.
