KERNAN'S LYCEUM THEATER.-Joe
Oppenheimers Miss New York, Jr.," Bur
lesquers will entertain the patrons of Ker-
mans next week. commencing Monday
matinee, ana promise a program just as
varied and interesting that which
pleased last season. Oppenheimer, a Wash
ington boy, comes from the school of ultra
burlesque, and though he has been quick
to adopt new ideas, he never departs from
forms which are recognized as the redeem
ing feature of burlesque productions. There
Is every assurance that his Offering Will be
complete so far as the characteristics of
out-and-out burleSQue are concerned, and
patrons who look for this and expect no
more will probably be well satisfied. In the
first part. Carrie A. Nation absurdity is
given full play, tempered by many good
musical numbers and novel terpsichorean
features. Emma Kraus impersonates Mrs.
Nation, the saloon Smasher, and is said
to impart to the role all the zeal and de-
structiveness which have made the origi-
nal famous. The burletta, Cleopatra at
Ceney Island is quite as consistent as its
name, but introduces number of clever
features. Emma Kraus, whose rendition
of 1.-THE Holy City" attests the quality of
her soprano voice, heads the olo, which
includes Carr and Jordan, the farce-com-
edy artists: Nellie Hill and Hattie Mills,
acrobatic eccentriques; McCale and Dan
iels, the Irish cyclones, and the Hilton
