DRAMATIC AND LYRIC.

The indications of the crowds that
will attend the jubilee celebration are
found in the arrangements already I'M
der way for the amusement of the
throngs. In addition to Saltair, the
tabernacle, the theater, the Grand and
the Lyceum are expected to be open
every night except that devoted to fire
WORKS At the tabernacle the prob
abilities are that there will be vocal
and instrumental contests on the order
of the eisteddfOd and that the big choir
will also take part; al the theater the
old pioneer performance is expected to
run one or two nights. the remainder
of the time to be occupied by some
ether strong attraction. Just what viii
he put on at the Grand and Lyceum is
as yet unknown, but the aim will he to
bring in some attractions that VIII give
the widest kind of variety and please
every sort of taste.
The theater company gladdened its
stockholders with a per cent dividend
yesterday, but no part of il came from
the earnings OF the Little Cinderella
company At the afternoon perform
ance there was but a fair turnout, and
at the night the attendance was most
melancholy. The company is composed
exclusively of juveniles, some OF them
of very tender age They originally
apDeared in San Francisco. where they
made so much of a hit that the idea
an unfortunate one-was conceived OF
sending them out for road tour They
got TO Denver, and have been playing
the small towns between there and here
with disheartening results. While the
children are undeniably clever, especl-
ally in their dancing, it is lnconceiv-
able how any manager could imagine
that they could be made a success on
the road. and how he had the nerve to
venture so far away from home with
so many children, at least without nav
ing his return tickets in his pocket
After the performance last night 1t was
uncertain what the company would do;
it was billed to appear next in Butte,
but it is said the children are without
railroad tickets. and unless the advance
manager, who is now in Montana, sue
ceeis in raising the wind, the future
OF the enterprise is very problematical. /
The brightest OF the little ones is Nina
Cooke. who remains here to play with
the Grand company very graceful
dancing act was executed by little
Daisy Grogan.
