REMEMBER TuE MAINE.

"Remembcr the Fame" the only
one Of the many Spanish-American
plays, launched during last season
which still continues on the road,
comes to the Opera House on Fri
day night. Some really clever
plays dealing with the late war
were launched, but as the aud ltors
relied wholly on patriotic sentiment
to support the play, after the war
and the consequent decline in inter-
est i'll its incidents, the public ccas-
ed to produce the coin Of the realm
IN paying alnuunts. MIR. Garter
was shrewd enough to forsee this
result, and he therefore conceived
some astoniahingly clever scenic
effects, which will carry the play,
and produce good financial results
for some seasons to com". The
chief among these effects is the
much talked of battle scene, a rep
rescntation of the struggle between
the American and Spanish nayies
In the harbor in Manila.
At the Opera House on SATURDAY.
evening Mile. Fife, the cclcbrat-
ed comedy presented at the Man

hundred nights, and an enormous

gantiy attractive comedies ever
witnessed. The gifted and bcauti-
full actress, Mile. Pillar NORM. will
be seen in the charactcro of Florence
de Puissac. supported by the fol-
lowing popular artists: Miss Alillie
Lestor, Mr.. John Martin. Ernest
Howard, George f. Murphy. Geo.
X. Sprague, Mamie Denbi and
others. Mile Fiii' is a play en-
tircly devoid Of anything that the
most select could take otfcnse at,
aud it will be put on the stage with
all thc acquisition and splcndor
which characterized its first pro-
duction in this country. The COM
