STORIES OF THE STAGE.


Railroad jack pleased a good
sized audience at Harper's theatre last
night.
The Burgomaster, described in
the words of the advance representa-
tive as one continuous round of up
roarious laughter and applause. will
be the attraction at the Burtis tonight.
The much-talked-of merry melange
of wit. beauty and song seems to have
hit Chicago and all of the eastern
managers who have seen the produc-
ton as a phenomenal success, far su-
perior to many of the So called eastern
triumphs seen in years. AS to its
| financial success, all doubts are
thrown to the winds, as on good au-
thority The Burgomaster" is the box
Office record-breaker in western theat-
rical history, and relative to its artistic
qualities the voice of the press and
public is sufficient to assure local
pride inasmuch as the managers who
have produced the play. the authors
who wrote it, the costumer, scenic
artists. ETC., are all western products,
and alone are responsible for conyinc-
ing the most critical observer that the
west is thoroughly capable of present.
ing a "Casino"-like production.
a Runaway Girl" the popular in
ternational musical comedy success,
with its pretty girls, it's rich and elab-
crate scenery, it's bright and catchy
music and its metropolitan company
of artists, will be seen at the Burtis
Wednesday evening. There will be
no doubt as to the outcome of its visit
to this vicinity. There will not be a
vacant seat in the theatre-rain or
shine-for it is very seldom that such
a pronounced metropolitan success is
presented by so capable company.
The Augustin DAILY company is the or
ganization presenting this charming
comedy. 1t comes direct from New
York City, and is composed of such
artists only who could reach that
standard of merit demanded by tina.
master hand in everything pertaining
to the stage-Augustin DAILY. There
are 90 members in this organization,
headed by that little prince of come
dams, the EN- bodiment of mirth and
fun, Arthur Dunn. A magnificent
chorus of trained voices is heard in
the many musical mum bers rendered
while the many solos, duets and con-
certed pieces sung by the principals
to the action of the play
have served to make IA Runaway
Girl one of the greatest musical
comedy successes of the age.

dollars to familiarize the public with the
signature of Chas. II. Fletcher. This
has been necessitated by reason of pira-
tes connterfeiting the Castoria trade
mark This counterfeiting is crime
not only against the proprietors Of
Castoria, but against the growing gen

to see that Castoria bears the signature
of Chas. II. Fletcher, if they would
guard the health of their children.
Parents, and mothers in particular,
onght to carefully examine the Castoria
iyertisements which have been ap-
