DRAMATIC AND LYRIC.

The coming week VIII contain so
much in the amusement line that peo-
pie may he pardoned if they become
bewildered in choosing how and where
to spend their dollars. 1t is crafty
ing to know that in the great array of
entertainments which have been pro-
vided in every place of amusement
and resort that the city or its suburbs
contain, the greatest attention has been
paid to music and drama. The con-
certs to be given at the tabernacl
Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday even
ings viii be on the most extensive
scale, and the interest which the events
Viii arouse has probably not been ex-
celled since the grand old choir under
its cana Die leader began to cater to
the public.
At the theatre the events will be
scarcely less memorable, as they VIII
reinTroduce to the public notice old
timers, who many had thought had not
only passed off the theatrical stage, but
away from this stage of being. To the
theatrical auditors of 30 and 40 years
ago and the city will be crowded with
them during this week, the events at
the theatre will be of the most pleas
urable and affecting kind.
