WILTON LACKAYE.

Immediately following Mr.. Lackaye's
week of "Trilby' performances at the
Academy of Music, he branches out on
his new play called THE Law and the
Man" The Law and the Man Is a
new stage version and special drama
tization built for Mr. Lackaye from
Victor Hugo's world-widely known and
most celebrated work Lies Miserables. =
Although Mr.. Lackaye has assayed
many OF the most important roles
known to the American stage to-day to
the readers Of Hugo's famous works
one can readily realize and see the
opportunities afforded such a sterling
and forceful portrayer of dramatic
character as Mr.. Lackaye in the lead
ing role in this famous story. On the
other hand Mr.. Bray is sparlng no ex-
pense, energy or time in making this
production one of the most noteworthy
of new events for the closing Of a re-
markedly successful theatrical season.
Mr.. Lackaye is announced to appear
In the new production at the Hyperion
Friday and Saturday nights, May Is
and 10 and Saturday matinee.

Harvard Football.

The students of Harvard university
will be permitted to play football next
fall, this decision having been reached
by vote of the overseers at a meeting
the other day, At tho close of last sea-
son, when the football aglta-
ton was the vogue, the authorities Of
Harvard decided to abolish football. A
number of other institutions did like
wise, and it is probable they, too, will
reconsider their former decisions and
reverse themselves.
We doubt, however, if this latest de-
cision of the Harvard powers that be
will ameliorate the football conditions
in that college. Permission to play
football has been allowed the Harvard
students for many year, but they
have seldom awaited themselves Of it.
What Harvard needs u.s. not permission
to play football, but peremptory no.

The scared bravery of Bob Acres, the

Kings English by Mrs. Malaprop, with
the numerous complications Of the plan,

years ago, when the illustrious father,
Joseph Jefferson, first made his fame

William w. will be the Bob Acres,

the tea house will be made a garden,
and the wall back of the ground will be
extended and painted with several ORR
