night is to be the sweet singing and
| clever Irish comedian, Chauncey Olcott,

ager, Augustus Pitou, and it will be
presented here with the original cast
and scenic embellishments which char
acterlzed Mr. Olcott's successful run of
five months in New York. The begin
mig Of the play is the beginning of the
past century, which gives ample oppor-
tunity for effective and picturesque
costuming. 1t is a wide departure
from the usual Irish plays, inasmuch
as it Is comedy. The characters, with
the exception of some peasants, are all
of the upper class. Mr.. Olcott has the
| strongest acting part of his career. Oh
colt is, without doubt, the sweetest
singer on the stage, and his produce
tons have become famous for the ex-
cellence of the musical numbers COM
posed by the star, and rendered by
himself. His five new songs for Gar
rett OMagh" are said to be particularly
delightful They are melodious simple
ballads, sung in sweet and powerful
tenor of perfect cultivation. Olcott has
more than once been credited with
combination of the virtues of Seaman,
Emmet and Boucicault. He has de-
lightful personality, a keen sense of
true Irish wit and hurnor, a touch for
