For triumph in stage realism and
the most wonderful effect ever produc-
ed on any stage, the public must look
to the browning incident in 1.-THE Coun-
ty Fair" which will be presented at the
Hyperion tomorrow night with Neil
Burgess himself as Abigail Prue, viz,
the great race scene in the last act. The
speed is tremendous, the fences and To-
liage seem literally to fly by the strain
ing animals each Jockey on his steed
seems bent on winning and now it is
one and then another that shows in the
van. "Cold Molasses" is a length be-
hind at the half, but running easy the
colored jockey on Ginger" lets out a
lap, and now Tim sees his time to
win, If ever, has arrived. He humps
himself on cold Molasses," whispers
a word to the colt and, riding for all he
is worth, passes the judges stand win
ner of the County Fair three-year-old
race by short neck, The bell rings
/
again, and there Is the fair scene just
as 1t appeared before the race. There
| has been a large advance sale. Prices
81, rs cents, so cents, 35 cents and 25
cents.
| Francis Wilson, with an entirely new
company and a new comic opera, will
be seen at the Hyperion next Friday
and Saturday nights and at the matt
nee Saturday. The play is a happy
medium for the display of this popular
comedians unique talents. With 1.-THE
Monks of Malabar" as it's title, it is
easy to conceive that there must be
Oriental settings and costuming of lux
urious quality. Ludwig Highlander, the
composer, is said to have provided some
ambitious music and many tuneful mel
odies far above the average. Among
the new faces to be seen with the COM
pany will be those of Madge Leasing,
Edith Bradford, Clara Palmer Edith
Hutchings, Louise Lawton and Van
Rensselaer, Wheeler and Hallen Mostyn.
