TOLEDO ADJUSTMENTS.

TOLEDO ADJUSTMENTS.
Cook and Green have booked another
combination show for the Arcade for
next week. The show is headed by the
wonderful Ten Ichl troupe Of Japane. Q
magicians who are declared to be the
greatest people in their line in this
country. One OF the most remarkable
tricks performed by Ten Ich is the
| living fountain trick. He takes n
small tea pot filed with wafer and
pours 1t into vase in which there are
some freshly ont flowers. Immediately
from the vase springs a jet of water I, n
or twelve feet high, and while this j t
OF water is spouting he takes 1t be
tween his thumb and fore finger and
lifting II as you would a feather irans-
fers it to the razor edge of Il Japanese
sword; from there he takes it to the
bowl of pipe and then balances it on
|
then come upon the stage and in Il sec
pnd the jet of water springs from the
top of their hands. This is only one I
the wonderful and amazing tricks that
Ten Ichi performs. He is assisted b>
three pretty Geisha girls, who are de.
,lared to be the real goods.
On Saturday afternoon and evening
March IA, Mr.. Kyrle Bellew appears
at the Valentine theatre in "a Gentle
man of France" surrounded with the
wealth of scenery of the original New
York production, and supported by
an excellent cast, including most of
the originals of the Wallack theatre
production.
There are eight gorgeous scenes,
said to reflect with historic accuracy
the sixteenth century Hugenot upris-
| ing in France. On the occasion of
the first presentation in New York,
the critics unanimously declared this
one of the handsomest productions
ever made in the metropolis.
| One of the most pronounced sue
cesses of the season in comedy dra-
ma and one that will interest patrons
of the theatre for many seasons to
come is the beautiful romance Down
by the Sea" that is billed for March
10, 20 and 81 at Burt's theatre. This
play was originally produced at the
Prince of Wales 1.4eatre, London,
eight seasons ago and received its
initial American production at Bos-
ton, Miss, last season, where it met
with instant approval.
Very few plays have won their way
so quickly into the hearts of theatre
goers as "a Kentucky Feud," by
James R. CAREY and William T.
Keogh. The production is new and
valuable addition to the list of Amer
lean plays of which we may be proud.
The play will be at Burus Theatre,
Toledo, the first four days of next
week.
Hanlons "Superba" is to commence
its weeks engagement in Toledo at
the Lyceum next Sunday evening. 1t
like all of these enterprising mana
gers productions is a blaze of scenic
glory, one maze of the weirdest trick
cry in stage mechanism. A number
of expert artists, stage carpenters,
property men and workers in papier
mache have been working since the
close of last season under the imme-
diate direction of the master of pan
tomime, Mr.. William Hanlon at
their monstrous workshops in Cohas'
set, Mass, to prepare the gigantic
spectacle for the present season and
every year 1t must be new produc-
tion-not only scenery but the ballets
dances marches, tableaux, musical
lntroductions as well, everything is
rehearsed months at Cohasset where
the Hanlons own their theatre, SO the
first nights performance is as perfect
as the last.
