Captain Basi, JollnIco, is a well born young Englishman and the favorite of his great uncle, doughty old war rior whose life has been spent in the military service of a foreign Prince, and who. dying, leaves his immense estates and wealth to his nephew Basil, the old mans sole injunction being that his heir shall contract an ambitious mar riage. Young Jennico settles down to the enjoyment of a large income in his castle at Tollendhal. There comes with in the boundaries of his domain a Prin- cess accompanied by her maid gtrl- ish fancy prompts the Princess to mas querade as the maid and to pretend that that young woman is really the Princess.
 Basil makes loves to the woman. whom he supposes to be of royal birth, and an engagement is made between them. the ,bride-to-be insists upon the utmost secrecy, and in the darkened chapel, where the marriage takes place. the sup posed maid is substituted.

 Shortly after the marriage the couple have a disagreement, which becomes a serious quarrel, when Jennico taunts the bride with her humble station In life. Then the Princess leaves her husband, who goes to great lengths to recover his bride His life is constantly attempted by the villain, Prince Eugen. who also cove.s the royal bride, and the play works up to several superb climaxes.
 The scenery and other effects are all new and costly, and carried in their en- tirety by the company, which Is first Katherine Erie, who appear as Basil and Ottilne.

Way Down East Wednesday.

An altogether too brief engagement of that great drama Way Down East" Is announced for the Montgomery The atre for the first time on next Wednes- day matinee and night.
 It Is too brief because If one is to be- lieve what is said ofthe success of this ate a sensation. It Is a story of New England life told by Lottie Blair Parker, intelligently elaborated by Joseph k. Grismer, and presented in this city un- der the direction of MT. William A. Bra dy, who is responsible for the metropoli- tan production of the same pl y. For nearly two years it delighted New York CTS. and soon returns to the metropolis It is to be given here with a superb cast, an essential novelty in the way of snow storm, not the ordinary stage paper snow but d storm, a genuine, fu- rtousiy driven storm. such as may be seen anywhere In midwinter in New England.
 It has a special appeal to any one morally inclined who can grasp an excel lent lesson, exqulsitely and refresningly told: person who has gone to see Way Down East will want to see it again, and will want to see another play of the same tone. While 1t may be new here the notable success that it has won elsewhere foretells the hearty welcome 1t is sure to receive. The motive and the atmosphere of the play evidence master mind In construction. It is wholesome, eleVaung m It's tone ana the authors seem always in good taste and at all times unob1ecuonable. The rural atmos- where is said to be cleverly maintained, and the characters convincing and inter- estinE
 Another charm of the play Is said to he the excellence of the dialogue and it's extreme simplicity. the pathos affective as well as the humor. There are dozen or more characters. all of sharply con trasted types There Is an old New England farmer, naturally generous. but quite narrow minded. and there is a manly vigorous hero, an eccentric com stable, ridiculous physician, an absurd professor of botany. a delightfully."- sweet heroine, gossipy, misunderstanding old maid, dainty. ingenious little miss and other very quaint and yet hfelike char acters, There is the village church choir, and score of other features that seem slight in themselves, but all serving to make up most inviting and pleasurable whole.
