PLAYSANDPLAYERS

On Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
Of next week the attraction at the
Lyceum Theatre viii I've AT Cripple
Creek" and a new plan IN connection
with the show will be tried. The
management Of the company and Of
the theatre have decided TO offer an
upright piano to the person purchasing
a ticket who guesses rearest TO the
attendance at the five performances
given by the company. There is a
guess allowed for each ticket pur-
chased and as stated the person COM
ing nearest TO the exact numbers gets
the piano. The instrument has been on
exhibition in the window OF the store
at No. 5O6 Market street for several
days and viii be kept there for a tire
longer.
Max Figman IN Harold MacGrath's
story, "nhe Man on the Box" has
achieved the most emphatic succeus
Of amy attraction that has visited Will
mington this season. The book made
an immense impression and everybody
who read it feared that as usual the
story would be butcherei in the drama
tizatlon, but for once the public is
agreeably disappointed. The play is as
good as the book and ihat is saying
a great deal. AS for Max Figman, from
all accounts he must be the very ideal
Of the hero Of the story. From every
source there Is nothing but praise OF
his conception and execution and IL Is
so universal there ca1not fail but he
truth in it. Manager john Cort, WHO
directs Mr. Figman's tour. as well as
those OF Florence Roberts and Maude
Fealy has provided his star with a
supporting comedy OF moie than usual
strength and a production that is COM
plete in every detail. Max Figman's
| engagement at the Grand Opera House
on Thursday evening, viii be one of
the artistic treats Of the year.
The attraction at the Lyceum Thurs
day, Friday and SATURDAY. is those two
jolly fellows, Gordon ana Gilbert IN
the second edition of their successful
musical comedy "Hans and Nix
! These reliable comedians have always
been laugh producers Of the first quail
ity. This year they come with an entire
new outfit. Scenery superb company
/ large, chorus pretty ana talented. As
a singing show it is promised that
| Gordon and Gilbert have eclipsed all
their previous Efforts along this line
As Frank Daniels Francis Wilson and
others have risen from the ranks Of tho
vaudeville theatre of the past so have
Gordon and Gilbert risen until today
they present a representative organic
alton In their line of theaircals now
before the public.
This afternoon and evening Human
Hearts will conclude its engagement
at the Lyceum Theatre. It is one OF
the best shows ever seen here anC
should have good houses.
There is some excellent comedy and
singing i'm the show which the Gar
rick offers its patrons this week. Tit
laughing hit of the bill is probably thl
novel circus feature contributed b.
Sammy Watson's Farm Yard-an ac
which offers no end of fun to old am

other animals that usually frequen
