which is a thrilling and fascinating
play of only 30 minutes duration. made
from the uncanny but enthralling story
from the pen of Robert Louis Steven
son. "Markheim'' is ordained by the
fates to commit crime as long as he
shall live. and in the play he murders
the keeper of an old curiosity shop on
Christmas morning.
On Tuesday and Thursday and Sat
urday nights and at the Wednesday
matinee Mr.. Irving will appear in one
of the plays which contributed largely
to his fathers enduring fame, and
which was probably the most popular
play in Sir Henry Irving's repertoire.
This is THE Lyons Mail" the famous
drama by Charles Reade. in which Mr.
Irving appears in two characters, Lee
surques, the good and innocent mer-
chant of Paris, who is suspected, ar
rested and tried for the brutal crimes
of one DuboSc, owing TO a remarkable
physical resemblance between the two
men. Before "The Lyons Mall is
played, Miss Baird appears alone in a
one-act play entitled King Rene's
Daughter" in which she essays the
role of blind princess. This play was
arranged for the stage by Sir Henry
Irving. On Wednesday and Friday
nights and at the Saturday matinee
Mr. Irving will appear in another play
identified with his fathers career
King Charles T. In this historic dra-
ma he will assume the role of Eng
lands Inflated ruler. while Miss Baird
will play the part of Queen Henrietta
Maria, and Mr.. Tyars, one of the best
known of Sir Henrys old support, will
play the role of Cromwell The en-
gagement promises to be one of the
most notable in the history of the thea

and honorable dramatic career in Eng
land before taking up the work laid
down by his illuStriouS sire. The ply

The repertoire for the first week of
Mr. Irvings engagement at the Illinois
theater will consist of five different
plays and involve three complete
changes of bill Mr. Irving will make
his debut on Monday night in double
bill embodying two roles, the playing
of which is peculiarly associated with
his own personality and creative abili-
ty The first of these is a play called
"Mauricette" This play was written
by a French author, Andre Picard, and
was translated and adapted for the
English stage by Mr.. Irving. As Dau-
tran, Mr. Irving gives remarkably fin
ished performance of comedy that is
held to be the more remarkable in view
of the serious nature of most of his
other representations. Miss Baird
plays the title role in the piece, and
is altogether charming in her idea of
the character of Mouricette.' "Mauri-
cette" will be preceded by ''Markheim,

In report to the Chicago board of
education Superintendent Cooley of the

stunts high school girls of one society
compel members to undergo, says a
Chicago special dispatch to the New

school spelling:
Bend forward, hands touching floor

times.
Break egg on her head.

Search for coign in flour.
Eat unpleasant things.

much more outrageous than the list of
girl fortunes as a part of his initiation
into high school fraternity"

H. 3. Irvinq's Chicago Enqaqement.-

n. 3. Irving's Chicago Engagement
Not only Chicago, but the vast section
which contributes its quota of amuse-
ment goers to the western metropolis,
will be interested in the announce
ments that tell of the coming of H. B.
Irving, the eldest son and namesake
of England's greatest actor, to that
city. H. B. Irving's season at the Hi
nois theater in Chicago will begin on
Monday evening, the 10th inst, and
will continue for two weeks, during
which time both Wednesday and Sat
urday matinees will be given
The deep affection with which Sir
Henry Irving was regarded by all
American theatergoers for his lofty
ideals regarding stage art, was never
more in evidence than it was when the
great English actor visited this section
of the United States. AS a matter of
fact, a large proportion of his audi
ences were made UP of those from the
towns and cities which surround Chi
cago and which are tributary to it on
account of the admirable railroad ia
cilities which exist Partly on that ac-
count, and largely because of the great
renown of Sir Henry Irving and of the
familiarity with his work and plays,
the management of the Chicago thea
ter, in which he always played, adopted
mail order system by which patrons
from nearby and even distant points
were able to make seat reservations in
most satisfactory way. The coming
of Mr.. Irving to Chicago has caused
them to revive this convenience and
to state that mail orders received will
receive prompt attention and seats Sc
lected as near the desired location as
possible. A remittance is required to
accompany the order, and self-ad-
dressed stamped envelope is to be en-
closed for reply.

Opera With a Plot.-With theatric
menu fairly overfiowing with attrac-
ton of musical tendencies, as does that
of the present season, the seeker after
amusement within the glare of the foot
lights must separate the chaff from the
grain, else he will have foisted upon
him things that are not up to a high
standard of merit. Sergeant Kitty
that will be seen at the Illinois next
Monday, with Helen Byron as head and
front of the cast, is an attraction that
deserves more than passing attention.
1t is an opera. 1t has plot. 1t is re-
plete with bright, snappy comedy lines
and situations. 1t is not a nonsensical
