ton is making things very warm for
her. Boston has won twelve pennants
and six Of these were won under the
management OF the late Harry
Wright. Last year was the eighth
time Boston won the National league
pennant. Their winning record in
the league began in 1877 and continued
until 1898. In addition to the above,
Boston won in the old National associ-
alton i'm 1879. '73, "a and '75, making
twelve pennant races won by these
champions. Five of these were won
under the management of Mr.. Selee and
one under the direction of John Nor
rill. The Boston team is unequalled
in professional club history. From
the year OF its organizat alton In the win
ter of 1870, she has the honor of being
continuously In the profession arena
up to her winning the pennant in 1870.
The st. Louis team, now holding first
position, did not win "A single series

figures against one club and that was
Brooklyn. The record of st. Louis de-
feats has only been surpassed once in
the history of the league and that was

of the three leaders. the conclusion is
apt to be formed that Boston is still
a winner She may. and most GER
tainly will. have her ups and downs"
throughout the season, but when the
end comes and every one is wondering
and guessing, she will. without a doubt,
head the list with total of more
games won and less lost than any of
her contemporaries. This is uncer-
tam, however. She may drop lower
than she now stands and remain like
statue, but, from her past record we
know her management has been sue
cessful in securing the very best mate
rial obtainable, regardless of cost. II
She has done so in the past she most
certainly will continue to do so Ham

"a Romance of Athlone.n

TIE Irish comedian and -~Iladst,
Chauncey Olcott, will present his new
play, "A Romance of AthlOne," by
Augustus Pitou, for the first time in
this city at me Lyceum next Wednes-
day afternoon and evening. The play
is a strong romantic drama, and gives
Mr.. OlcOtt the best opportunity to show
his gifts as an actor of the remantic
school, besides giving him plenty of
chances to sing his melodies, which are
strong factor in all of his plays. He
has written anu composed nve new
songs expressly for this play. Chaun-
cey Olcott is alike a favorite with
the children and .-..se of maturer
years because of his magnetic pre-
sence and sweet voice. The scenes of
"A Romance of Athlone," laid in Ire
land, in the year 1900, give chance
of much delicacy of Costuming and the
scenic effects are magnetic The en-
tire production as seen through the
successful run of over three months
in New York will be given

On next Thursday night Daniel Sully

will open his new Corner Grocery"
at the Academy of Music and from
the outlook his patrons will be very
plentiful. This famous funny comedy
has been rewritten and brought right
up to the hour -..c play is certainly
funny, and it keeps the audience laugh
ing. The bad. forgetful boy is the life
of the play. The plot of the play is
brief and important. 1t hinges on the
forging of a will and on an effort to
make rich, pretty girl marry the son
of fOrger, who was a partner of her
father in the grocery business. lie is
a German and keeps the corner gro
Gerry. Daddy Nolan is the guardian of
the pretty girl, and Thomas Nolan, a
clerk in the grocery store, is her lover,
Jimmy Nolan is the bad, forsetful boy.
