THEATRICAL.


! THE DAZZLER"
Cosgrove and Grants comedians began
their annual tour at Music hall last evening
with three days engagement. The
audience was large and the show started
with snap aud vim that promises it a most
successful tour, The first act carries all the
plot and the remainder is made up of spec
ialties. Fred. Lucier, as Ezekiel Pipes, is an
amusing comedian. His sister, Rose Lucier.
assists him in their speciality with the violin,
mandolin, cOrnet and trombone, which is a
pronounced hit. Ratz, the German come
dian, is the real" thing. Mr.. Grifin's
dance catches the house every time and is
considered a novelty. Last but not least is
the Golden Gate quartette, who were heard
with much pleasure Portland Me-, Times

Irish VISITORS"
OF all the shows that have appeared at the
Opera House this season, none has pleased
better than Pat Maloneys Irish Visitors"
that opened last night to house packed to
the doors, every seat being filled when the
curtain went up and many had to be content
to lean up against the wall. Of the per.
formance too much can not be said in praise
of the splendid array of talent in the Pat
Maloney show. The program is clean, bright
and humorous the music is up to date and
catchy, and the specialties all of the highest

artists. To give all the artists the space they
are entitled to would more than fill column.

"A WISE WOMAN"
Wilfred Clarkes farce will have an en-
gagement of one night at FergusOns theatre
on Saturday evening, December 9th. 1t has
made big hit and is taking an assured
place as one of the comedy successes of the
season. Certainly there is every reason for
its success The play is novel, cleverly con-
structed, and splenddly acted, and that it is
pleasing, is shown by the big houses that
have greeted it everywhere.
A PLEASING PRODUCTION.
The production Of Hearts of the Blue
Ridge at Ferguson's theatre last night was
made before small, but appreciative audi
ence. The play is based upon an interesting
story of life among the people of North
Carolina, telling of a feud existing between
two families, and which is finally brought to
a happy close by the love existing between
the daughter of one family and son of
another The play is above the standard Of
the general run Of melo-dramas in sentiment
and situations, and the climaxes, while sur. |
prising, do not partake of undue sensational |
ism. The cast is a good one, particularly |
Dorothy Lewis, Robert Iceland, F. A. !
Sullivan, Ned Risey aud Leo Peasley. The
singing OF the negro quartette incidental to
the play was heartily encored.

4 Nucn s;ourncd Mother.

Wtsen Shafter was senior colonel of
the army, he was temporarily i'll charge
of some western post and numbered in
his command an exceedingly bright, ca
pable fellow whose cleverness was con-
tinually getting him the Goncommission
stripes and whose escapades were just
as frequently getting him reduced TO
the ranks. One day this soldier turned
up at Skaters quarters with long
face and applied for leave 70 attend the
funeral of his mother, who had died the
previous night, he said, in the town.
The request was granted, but later on,
in looking over the same records, the
colonel discovered that the same man
had been granted leave the month before
on the identical preteXt. Shafter said
nothing, but couple of days afterward
encountered the bereaved warrior on
parade ground. "Look here, my man, +"
said Pecos Bill solemnly, II want 10
ask you a question. Were you good to
that mother of yours while she was
alive?''
"Well, sir-yes, sir-that is, L hope
So" stammered the culprit, not know
ing what was coming.
Il hope so, too, y replied the colonel.

sons, but never of one dying twice in
80 days for one. You may go in mourn
