About the last place on this earth that
one would expect to hear Of a genuine
Down East Yankee New England
story being read with evident relish is
Paris, yet the publishers of Quincy
Adams Sawyer" from which the play of
that name is made. have recently re-
ceived word that their representatives
In France had a translation Of the book
made and published with popular re-
suits. AS matter Of fact the book
depicts certain phases of New England
life in a vivid manner that has never
been attained by any other author and
the production of Quincy Adams Saw
yer' which will be seen at the Grand
Opera House on Tuesday night is the
book in play form, containing that same

John w. Vogers Big City Minstrels is
said to be the most conspicuous organ
ization travelling. presenting a long and
varied program teeming with crisp bon
mots, witty filings and new magnetic
features, up-to-date, up to demand and
up to every expectation, giving equally
excellent enjoyment to everybody. This
company Of merry-makers will appear
at the Grand Opera House on Monday
night and as Manager Vogel has al.
ways given the minstrel loving public
a high class entertainment the hous,
should be packed.
There seems to be a very marked de.
sire on the part of our theatre patron.
to do more than ordinary homage tc
the genius of Creston Clarke, whose
appearance I'm Monster Beaucaire" is
announced for this afternoon and to-
might at the Grand Opera House. Not
only do the lovers OF uplifting dramatic
purpose appreciate Mr.. Ciarke's ennob-
ling aims, but they recognize the splen-
ibid talents which he undoubtedly inher-
tied from his father, John Sleeper
Clarke, and from his uncle, Edwin
Booth. Tarlngton's admirable book,
the same which Richard Mansfield
found to be Of such incalculable value,
is one intended to afford Mr.. Clarke
particular advantages. as it's romance
and comedy are so charmingly blended
that an actor of such legitimate YER
satility finds in 1t much to crafty his
ambitions. Jules Murry has furnished
his star with as complete a production
on a scale Of absolute grandeur as
money can insure.
