OF all farce comedies there is none more
potent to create laughter than THE
Hustler" which pays visit to this city
very shortly. The 'shlstler' himself pen
niless but full of plans for making mill
ions, is one of the funniest individuals
ever seen in theater, and his fellow
boarders are almost equally amusing.
The sDecialties in the piece this season
are all new. and the company is a very
strong one.
