A COMING ATTRACTION.
A bright, sparkling comedy is "Mc-
Ginty the Sport" which is announced to
appear at the Portland theatre three
nights. commencing January 18th. The
dialogue is ingeniously witty and during
the action of the play the latest catchy
songs are introduced and inter, sting
speciality numb ers are rendered by com
petent people

pinued laugh and the ever changing
scenes present brilliant picture TO the
eye. The dialogue is bright and many
odd savings. unique ideas and funny Sit
uations are introduced. No players of
the present time are more successful in
this sort of comedy than the present cast
engaged TO interpret the different parts
In this most admirable conceit.
A TERRIBLE TIME.
The next attraction at the Portland
theatre will be Harry kosers's latest farce
comedy success entitled "a Terrible
Time" that commences three nights
engagement and Wednesday matinee,

has been accorded reception by the press
that has seldom been equalled by success
ul pieces of this description. Unlike
most farces this one has a consistent plot
skilfully developed and although tbs
action of the pieca permits OF numerous
speciaities they are natural adjuncts to
the story and not introduced promiseu-
Ously to the detriment of the comedy.
TIE company is herslded as highly
capable one whose individual talents
give them "a place In the front ranks OF
the pro iesi ion. Pretty girls, bright music,
clever dancing and sparkling dialogue
abound In this entertainment, and a per-
fnrmance OF little Of everything to date
may be anticipated. preserved seats go on
sale this morning.
