BANCROFT" The MAGICIAN
The announcement Of this great magi-
CLANS appearance at the Academy Of
MUSIC next Tuesday evening has been
received with unusual interest by thea
tre-goers, and Bancroft Will, no doubt,
be greeted, as usual, by large audience.
Among his remarkable illusions this sea-
son are 1.-The Slave OF the Orient" '"rhe
Problems OF the SphynX," 1.-THE Unye!l-
gu Marvcls Of the pyramids" and the
Mystery of Mesrour." A feature of
peculiar interest will also be Bancroft's
illusion Lconli.' in which he trans
forms beautiful girl into q majestic
and living lion. His programme also
Includes some unique feats OF Hindoo
magic and q most startling reproduction
Of Egyptian magic, which Is absolutely
new and original.
SOWING TIL 70 WIND."-There are
SO many pleasant things about Sydney
Grundy's Sowing The Wind" and there
Is SO much in 1t to admire, that one is
half way willing to pardon the little
lmperfectfons which from time to time
are apt TO creep into its performance.
Such was the case last evening when
the drama was presented at the Acad-
envy of Music-presented not SO well as
on former occasions, but stu very ac-
cepta'bly. Mr.. Herbert z. Sears filled
his old role OF Mr.. Bra'bazon, but not
so well as on former visits to this city.
His representation, however, was good.
The Ned Amnesty was In new hands, as,
indeed. was the balance of the cast,
except the housekeeper. Miss Jennie L..
Casey, who has been here before.
The quarrel scene in the third act
between Mr.. Brabazon and Roseamond--
Elizabeth HOlloway-was q clever piece
of work. ac,d while the performance did
not reach that degree of excellence of
former presentations. still, upon the
whole. 1T was n pleasing one. Sowing
the Wind" Is good show, something
or which the amuscment-loving people
seemingly never tire, and is likely to
continue SO.
