Importance, not only for the amount
of business that will be done, but from
a social point of view. Every one is
familiar with the works of the famous
novelist, J. NJ. Barrie, and all will be
anxious to see the play of The Little
Minister" founded on his famous novel
of that name. The record Of this much
talked-of play is one to be proud of.
Three hundred nights in New York to
audiences that packed the theatre at
every performance is a record that will
stand for long time. Since the play
left New York the business has been
marvellous, immense audiences have
greeted it everywhere. Charles Froh-
man with his usual liberality has given
it a splendid cast and produces it in a
manner that leaves nothing to be de-
sired. Reserved seats will be on sale
Wednesday, March LIST.
To-day the Macauley- Patton company
closes a most successful engagement at
the Grand Opera House. This company
has more than sustained the high repu-
tation it achieved here last season. All of
the plays given this week have been put
on most acceptably. A notable compn-
ment to the company is the fact that so
many are attending more than one Of the
performances of the engagement. Yester-
day afternoon a very acceptable produc-
ton of Only a Farmers Daughter" was,
given before a large audience, and in the
evening A Sly Old Fox was put on. The
applause was frequent, and the specialties
between the acts were especially well re-
ceived. The engagement closes to-day

It is generally conceded by the pottery
owners throughout the country that the
fate of the American Potteries Company
depends wholly upon the ability Of the
New York financiers to float the securi-
ties issued by the trust If they are not
successful IN doing This, the immediate
future of the industry will be somewhat
chaotic as the old plans for price uni
formity, such as the white ware compact,
Potters' Exchange, etc, appear 70 have

standpoint 1t IS said there are several
new schemes being proposed to supplant
those already named in the event Of the
trust project not being satisfactorily
financed.
