Marietta daily leader. (Marietta, Ohio) 1895-1906, 1900-10-14

MADAME HERMANN,
The Queen Of Magic, at the Auditor
ium, Wednesday, October 18th.
Nine. Hermann, with blonde hair
falling over magnificent gold bro
caded gown, floats out upon the stage
attended by two Oriental slaves, and
gives the most artistic magical per-
formance ever given on any stage.
Professor Hermann, the man, sur
prised the world with his performan-
ces, but Madame Hermann, the wom
an, not only surprises, but attracts
with her grace and fascinates with the
beauty of her presentation. Her figure
is supple and 1.-the, and her every ges
ture graceful. The charm of her per-
sonality permeates every act. While
in the art of magic Prof. Hermann
may have had no peer, certainly the
presentation of his art before the pub
lie was vastly inferior to that of the
Madame.
Upon the appearance of the madam
| upon the stage pretty Glesha girl
gathered up her tea gown and fed,
leaving an upturned Japanese parasol
in the middle of the stage. The madam
grides forward and waves a sheet of
paper over it, deftly curving the paper
into a cornucopia and showers heaps
Of flowers into the upturned parasol
until they overflow in wealth of col
or upon the stage. Then she discovers
some empty receptacleg and smiles up
on the wondering Geisha girl and In
dian slave. Even out of the atmos-
phere she creates tea party, with
coffee, cream, loaf sugar, which the
slave passes to the usher and circulates
among the ladies of the audience.
From piece of paper and two met
al hoops she makes a tambourine, ,wav-
ing it before the audience she takes
therefrom great streams of colored rib
bon until the front of the stage is
an armful of the ribbon from the floor
and throws it with a playful gesture
into the air and it changes into scores
Of beautiful flowers which float down
and change the stage into flower
garden. Management of L. NJ Luchs.
A gorgeous spectacular and scenic
production of Uncle Toms Cabin will
be given at the Auditorium, Friday,
October 18th, by AL w. Martins fam
Gus company, undoubtedly the strong
est organization that has ever ap-
reared in this famous old drama. I'm
Gle Toms Cabin has been presented
more times than any other five plays
ever written, and it still draws crowd
ed houses everywhere. Mr.. Martin,
the proprietor of this company, after
considerable search and expense Sc
cured the original manuscript, and
presents it in "a manner that merits
commendation. A better production
of the piece has never been seen. The
entire stage production from start to
finish is carried by the company, and
among other notable scenes includes
the great $500 picture of the New Or
leans slave mart. The specialties in
troduced by the colored people are nu-
merous and amusing. An elaborate
street parade will be made at II o'clock
a. m. Prices 10, 20, 80 and so cents.

HOYT'S "a HOLE INTHE GROUND"
Hoyt's "a Hole in the Ground" in
which the author has endeavored to
show the joyousness of living, will be
seen here at very early date. All of
Mr. Hoyt's productions have been
presented here with fine cast; but
the company that will present this, the
/ funniest work of this popular play
wright, Is said to be the strongest and
most versatile ever put together. 1t
includes many of the original cast.
