with the Louisville Bridge company, Of Louis
vile, KY, and came to Pittsburg to superin-

be large audiences present to see for
the last time the six Glinserettis Mas

is one of the successes of the present
season, Mr.. Skinner having produced
it late in September in Chicago, where
it met with the highest approval from
all who saw it. The story the play tells
is full of interest, with highly dramatic
situations and climaXes and crisp and
brilliant dialogue, and is brilliantly
mounted. Sale of seats is now open,

Thomas @. Seabrooke's success in the

Grand Opera House,

Shaft No. 2" was the holiday attrac-
ton at the Grand opera house, literally
packing the house from pit to dome.
AT one time in the evening the line of
ticket buyers extended half way down
to Church street, and at 1880 it was
found necessary to display the stand
ing room only sign. Special sdecora-
lions of hemlock trees, evergreen and
the Stars and Stripes adorned the main
entrance to the theater, and artistic
decorations of a similar nature were
festooned about the boxes at either side
of the stage.
SHAFT No 9" is melodrama of
new order, a production in which the
working of electricity plays an impor-
tant part. Through this agency beau
tiful moonlight scene, bolt of light
ming which, for all the purposes of the
play, kills the villain, and the electric
chair in which an innocent man almost
meets his death, are most realistically
wrought. The story is a strong one,
and the action is in the hands of ca
pable company. Frank Losee, as Jim
Rathburn, the inventor, is the hero and
does his work capitally. A bit Of real
ism is that demonstrated just prior to
his electrocution. Marian Elmore as
Judy O'Rourke, is an Irish character
far above the average. w. j. Holton,
as Samuel Edeson, the employer, was
very good. John Price as Teddy, sings
several Irish songs with good effect.
w H. Murphy, as Nelson, the tramp
and villain, was very clever in his
songs, grotesque dances and funny sto-
ries. Miss Lillian Price, as Jim
sweetheart, took her part well. James
A. Mahoney made an excellent villain
and the Kisses Of the audience were his
best applause. j T. Gebhart made the
most of the small part of Hynds, the
governors secretary.
"Shaft No. 2" will be produced again
this afternoon and evening, and, as
suggestion, it would be well to secure
seats in advance.
"FALLEN AMONG THIEVES"
"Fallen Among Thieves" Thomas II.
Davis and william 7. Keogh's latest
scenic production, with Its novelty and
heart interest, Is sure to prove one of
the real delights of the presents theat-
rical season. 1t possesses the facul-
ty of touching thephearts of the people
and awakening their sympathles
through a channel of homely pathos,
while through it all runs vein OF the
most refined and exclusive comedy. 1t
will be the holiday offering to the pa
irons of the Grand Opera House, Mon
day. Tuesday, Wednesday, next week.
The scenic environment is said to be
of unusual excellence. Matinee We'd
