AAUSE EME:NTS,
Academy OF Music.

The engagement of 'The Yolunteaf
Organist" in this city next week at tl&
Academy. ef Music is an event which Il
awaited with no small degree of pleasure
by patrons of the art.
In presenting this attraction, Mr.. HAT
~ Martell has surpassed himself 70 aD
unusual degree, as 1t is a production on
the most magnificent scale. The song OF
the same title from which the piece was
adapted was great success, having had
a most phenomenal sale, but it is hardly
comparison to the instant popularity
that has been attained by the play since
its FIRST production.
Its author, William 3. Gray, has star5
ed a scrap book, in which he has reserv-
ed score after score OF congratularity let
ters from pastors having charge in almost
every city in the country, where the piece
has been presented. These letters, com
ing from men OF the cloth, are naturally
priced highly by Mr.. Gray, and it would
take a very forcible argument to induce
him to part with these strong and volun-
tary Endorsements.

Rozl Ton Theatre.

What the all star cast is to the legiti-
mate drama, the roster Of the Empire
Show is to the fashionable vaudeville cir
cult. This will be demonstrated when
the organization makes its appearance at
the Bon Ton Theatre The manage
ment offers as its features, James J. Cor
bett in monologue that will prove a
surprise in that field; an an added attrac-
.tion, the Three Meers are brought over
from Europe to exploit their marvellous
comedy wire act This big feature en-
joys the distinction of having appeared
for fourteen consecutive months at the
Alhambra Theatre in London. Another
powerful magnet for the organization is
Davis and Macauley in comedy sketch
written by the famous Edmund Day,
which is filed with good acting aud pro-
ductive Of much laughter. Miss Maud
Nugent, who knows how to sing songs
as they should be sung. Parmene Bro
thers, European grotesques; Reynard in
a laugh a-second travesty; Raymond and
Caverley in their Teutonic Offering.
English as it can be broken and Ken
nedy and Rooney, exceptionally clever
eccentric dancers. and Geller troupe, are
the other acts that make UP this great
organization, which places it in the first
rank of this branch of aumsemnt.

presented at Daly's Theatre, where it is
breaking all records for attendance, re
