with the popular young actor, y. :.
Wood in the titular role. Mr.. Wood is "a
great favorite with tho patrons of this
cosy amusement resort for ladies and

The engagement VIII be rendered the
more pleasing on account of the first

Alice {. keane. The company il n thor
oughly competent one and VIII include
several OLD time favoriteS. who, on this
occasion, will make their first appearance
IN many seasons. Great preparations have
been made for this production. AS it's
name would indicate, this drama re-
counts the experience and adventures in
the life of "a youth who follows the excit-
ing AMI dangerous profession OF a detec-
tive, but unlike most dramas of this
character il does not depend for its in
terest entirely upon the star. The play
has good story, consistent plot. an
abundance Of humor with just sufficient
of pathos and plenty of elaborate scenic
and mechanical effect to make IL mer-
torious and worthy. Tho murder Of his
father and the retaining Of his fortune by
the villain drives tho hero an outcast into
the streets of New York I'm quest of a
livelihood. Ambitious, bright and fear
less, he forms an alliance with famous
detective and soon makes reputation for
himself that is enyied by the less ener-
getic OF his associates.

given on Saturday afternoon when pupils
of tho public schools will be admitted
with reserved seat for ten cents.

Romantic, Exciting, Truthful.

Buffalo Bill's Wild West and Congress
of Rough Riders of the World will be in
this city OH Monday, May 81
In this remarkable exhibition are illus
trated in most vivid manner the Gus.
toms and manners of the Indian tribes
and many romantic, exciting and abso-
lutely faithful episodes of life on the
prairie and plain and in the foot hills and
forests of pioneer days are reproduced. A
great equestrian congress of the rough
riders of the world is also seen and the
delighted spectator follows with excited
admiration. that thrill him with delight
contest and races between cowboys
Gauchos. Cossacks, Mexicans and Indians
who perform many equestrian feats amt
give marvellous illustrations of finished
horsemanship. Here, too, the we'll known
lady markswoman, Miss Annie Oakley
who, next to Buffalo Bill is perhaps the
most popular artist of the wild west, per
forms wonderful things with the revolver
and pistol, and, like her patron, has
worldwide reputation. She stands un-
rivaled the best woman shot in the world
and has many times beaten the record
against all comerS. With characteristic
modesty however, she never calls herself
champion. Her eyesight is as clear and
accurate as the best field glass, her nerve
is as true as steel, and, If sho were put to
it, she could hit u pea fixed on the top
most point of the dome of the capitol at
Washington. Another remarkable expert
marksman is Johnny Baker, also great
favorite, who, with Miss Oakley, is still
with the wild west exhibition.
All the features that nave made IL ia
NOUS in the past have been retained and
others have been added, among which is a
complete battery of Uncle Sans heavy
and flying artillery.
Col. Cody himself will appear az each
representation, and no one should neglect
this opportunity-an opportunity which,
by the way, may never occur again--of
enjoying an entertainment tAeI4++e-
which certainly can never be duplicated
hereafter.
