DAINTY DOROTHY NORTON To-
NIGHT.
Dorothy Morton, perhaps the most
brilliant Of all American prima dOnnas,
will be seen here at the Grand Opera
House this evening in her new musical
comedy, Miss Brevity, Of Hong Kong
The piece was written especially for
her, and it has resulted in adding new
lustre to the already high position
won by Miss Morton as the prima
donna Of the Whitney Opera Company,
in THE Fencing Master" of the Frank
Daniels Opera Company, in "The Wiz
ard of the Nile" and in Augustin
Days production of "The Geisha," at
Daly's Theatre, New York. The scene
Of Miss Brevity of Hong Kong" while
laid in America, introduces an Oriental
element of picturesque costuming and
complication of humorous incidents
that has won it instant favor. The
piece is especially strong in musical
numbers, among the most popular of
which are Sweet Cosette," "FOur-in-
Hand" Love is Like a Sunbeam, y
"His Little Nose Was Flat
Against the Window" IT'S a Thing
That You Never Can Tell, " THE Con-
iidential Maid" "The Way to Woo,

COMEDY

AT the Grand Opera House, Tuesday,
December 2S, the pretty and we'll
known soubrette, Miss Lillian Ken
nedy, portrays three distinct char
acters-one country maiden, shy
and very coy; the other a great, dash
ing New York actress; the other a
beautiful page The costumes through
out were especially designed by Worth
and cost many thousand of dollars, and
are certainly gorgeous. This attraction
will be a great treat to our
theatre-goers, as they have been lock-
ing forward to the same for a long
time, and will no doubt be one of the
comedy events of the season. Sensa-
tional situations, thrilling climaXes,
full of the latest songs, medleys and
dances OF the day, it will certainly
prove to be a night of great merriment,
and our theatre-gOers would do well to
have their seats reserved at once.
