day.
Unusual Importance attaches to the
approa ching engagement Of Hoyt's "A
Texas Steer" att the Opera House on
next Friday evening. Much of Hoyts
reputation as an author and success as
theatrical maR ger rests on this
piece. 1t has not the novelty of new
production and tine management does
not announce that the play has been
largely rewritten and remodeled. On
the contrary it is as near fac-simile
of the original New York production.
in cast and equipment, as possible, and
absolutely identical in lines. 1t would
seem almost sacrilege, or at least
suicidal, to alter single letter in that
most sprightly dialogue which is never
commonplace and sometimes rises to
heights of mastery elOQLence and
again subsidies to the gentle utter
ances of love or the homely expression
touching pathos. The fun is fast and
furious at times, bit is never allowed
to take the interest from the plot of
the story, which is keenly and logically
arranged and carried out. The charac-
ter types are splendidly drawn. They
are not ready made men and women,
but develop as the story proceeds. The
company is well balanced. Lydia Dick
son has been engaged for the beautiful
role of 'Bossy." Jas. r. Mccain is the
Maverick Brander" and the original
Texas Steer quartette are a popular
feature. The seat sale will open this
morning. s'...
