At the Gayety.

No form Of amusement offers more ir- and diversified entertainmenc than advanced buriesque. The contract netwen present conditions and those of lew years ago is remarkable. In no lins has more progress been shown; 1t has elevated itself to much higher stan dard. A few years ago a female minstrel scene, series of living pictures and few variety acts constituted the average hLrlesque show. There was never a thought of putting on anything that re- qrired any delicacy of treatment Now this is all changed. Today no feature is too high pricd or of too high a quality. Harry Bryant's company, which ranks among the topnotchers in extravaganza, Is at the Gayety this week.
