 AND TUESDAY.
 An event of exceptional interest is the appearance of the Bostonians at the Hyperion next Monday and Tues day nights. It goes without saying that theater- goers generally are familiar with the reputation of this excellent or ganization and the record it has main tained for number of years for being first in the field of lyric endeaVor. This season the company has been thorough ly reorganized, and the old faVorites who have scored so distinctiVely with the public in the past have been re- tained and q number of young singers added whose youth, beauty and talent are decided accessories to the original group of artists. At the head and front of the company and chief among the entertainers are Henry Clay Barnabee, the genial comedian, whose friends are legion and whose reputation has been firmly established by a succession of delightful impersonations; w. H. Mac Donald, the stalwart baritone. equally an important factor with the public; George Buckingham, Josephine Bart
 
 repute. Among the newcomers are two beautiful young sopranos, Grace Van Studdiford and Frances Miller; a viva cious contralto, Adele Rafter, whose exquisite vocal diction and admirable method is pleasantly remembered from last year; the distinguished basso, AL len Hinckley; the tenors, Frank Rush. worth and Vernon Stiles, and MacDon- j. xx1 T TO1llA TIn, c. W. Head, J. J. Martin and others. With their usual taste and judgment the management have secured bril- liant chorus and trained orchestra un- der the direction of s. l.. Studley, and in the presentation of Maid Marian" the new DeKoven and Smith opera, it may be safely assumed that a treat is in store for local music lovers.
 Maid Marian has been but recently produced in Philadelphia, and has been accorded such an enthusiastic reception as no musical composition has obtained in years. It is logical sequel to "Robin Hood" The personages of the former story have been given a new environment and the same general mu- sical forms followed in the story. The opera has many gems. among them "Away to the Forest" "The Cellerer's Toast" "The Crusaders March" 'Un- der the Mistletoe Bough," "The Snake Charmer's Song" "Tell Me Again, Sweetheart" and "The Banner of St. George" There are also many madri- gals and concerted numbers, brilliant finales and dainty harmonies deftly or chestrated. The production will be made on lines of unwonted splendor with special scenery by Ernest Gros and costumes and armor by Van Horn. Nearly one hundred people are employ ed in the production. Seats now selling rapidly Prices $50, $1 and 75 cents.
 Stuart Robson's production of Bron- son Towards splendid and highly pop ular comedy, "The Henrfet ta," will be seen at the Hyperion next Wednesday night and will be given, it is promised, upon a more elaborate scale than it has ever been presented. The entire cast will be composed of prominent players, three of whom have been stars on their own account The embellishments will be different from any former produc- tion of the play and, it is said, upon a much more elaborate scale. Seats on sale Monday. Prices s1.50, $1 and 75 cents. The Klaw and Erlanger Opera com pany headed by Jerome Sykes, comes to the Hyperion next Friday and Sat urday nights. There will be a matinee Saturday. Notwithstanding the great 1y increased expense of such an organ ization as the Klaw and Erlanger Op- | era company, there will be no advance 1 in prices for Foxy Quiller's" engage AY1p which will ba ha usually obtained for attractions of the ! very first class. Seats on sale Wednes- | day. Prices $1.5O, $1 and 75 cents.
