pretentious and elaborate productions
that win be seen at the Lyceum this

there are few productions on the
American stage today to equal THE
Two Little Waits" The patrons Of the
Grand Opera House will have an op-
porunitv OF seeing Mr.. Carter's great
est enterprise in all its grandeur and
magnifcance on Saturday afternoon
and night. The acting company was
especially engaged for this particular
play and attention is directed 10 the
Lamb childran, aged six and seven,
who play the different parts of the
waits with apparently as much knowl-
edge Of the requirements as artists
OF mature years.
