 ANDREW MACK'S NEW PLAY.
 In Andrew Macks new piece, An Irish Gentleman" the author of the play, Ramsay Morris, is said to have wholly discarded the moth-eaten and, in many cases, false types of character which have been doing duty for years in dramas supposed to picture life in Ireland. Bailiffs, redcoats, evictions and their attendant groups of villagers are done away with; and instead or the conventional peasant boy hero in corduroy knee e-breeches, who says sharp things at the expense Of every body about him, MT. Morris has pictur- cd a young Irish gentleman of to-day a college graduate, who is most talk ing mixture of wit, humor, sentiment and pathos. The story involves the course of true love, and it is said to be strongly dramatic, with an abundance of comedy to give relief to its serious side. The new play will be presented at the Hyperion theater next Friday evening. Sale of seats now open. Prices $1, 75 cents, 50 cents and 20 cents.
