kind ever seen here.
Academy hall never held a larger
crowd Every available inch of space
was taken and many were unable to
gain admittance.
The stage was beautifully decora-
ted over the arch the word wei
come" appeared in silver on a black
background. In the center of the
rear of the stage appeared a life size

Theatre Comiuue,

The dainty little Gordon sisters are
proving to be great drawing card at
the Comique this week and their varie-
ty of singing and dancing sketches
makes them equally entertaining to
young and old. The "doll-b baby" song
is pleasing to children and greatly en-
joyed by 'grownups," while their
beautiful, artistic dancing is unlike
that usually seen on the vaudeville
stage ana is similar to the solo dane
ing OF the star performer in comic
opera. One of their sketches is an i'm

MAGEE RANGES.
Exhibition Store of the Magee Furnace
Company at Boston.

A unique store has been opened on
Summer street. One can look at the
goods in this store, but can't buy them.
The store is at Otis and Summer streets
and is the new exhibition rooms of the
Magee Furnace company. Its products
will interest housewives. There is an
assortment of ranges from IA tiny cook
stove up to the largest hotel range.
The Magee Furnace company boasts
the largest lire of heating apparatus
under one name. Besides the cooking
apparatus it shows every conceivable
shape, size, and style of air, water and
steam heating apparatus.
The Summer street display rooms
are the first of the kind ever opened
in Boston. They are not for sales pur-
poses, but for exhibition only. A fea-
ture of the idea is cooperation with
Magee agents. Agents who have not
the space to exhibit the full line OF
Magee products may bring their Gus
toners to the display rooms on Sum-
mer street where they can see the en-
tire line. The agent, however, can
make the sale.

May Robson in "The Rejuvenation Of
Aunt Mary"

Next Wednesday Americas greatest
character actress will be seen at the
Opera House when May Robson APP
pears in her great success, 1.-THE Re-
iuvenation of Aunt Mary" by Anne
Warner Miss Robson is a delightful
actress, with a piquant talent for &C.
centric comedy and ability for more
serious acting when demanded. In
her present role, her comeliness is
concealed in the makeup of venerable
woman, but she is none the less
charming for that To see Aunt Mary
is to love her, so SWeetly and whole
somely is the character shown by Miss
Robson You will laugh with her AMI
you will cry with her and in the end
you will go away wishing you were
lucky enough to have such an Aunt
Mary of your own.
The story of the comedy has to do
with a spinster who idolizes a young
ScapeSrace of a nephew. He gets
into all sorts of wild scrapes and is
finally expelled from college. An as
sault upon cabman, with damages
amounting to $500 and a $4,000 breach
of promise suit are only two of his
troubles. His aunt doesn't so much
mind the first, but the second is one
which she will not tolerate. She sends
him away and excludes him from her
will.
The second act shows the nephew
back in New York again, living with
college chum and incidentally max
ing love to his chums sister.
Before the festival opens, Aunt Mary
arrives. In letter one of the boys has
told her that her nephew is the victim
Of measles. She is welcomed and made
to believe that the birthday celebra-
ton is intended for her. Aunt Mary
enters into the hilarity of the occasion
and yet, despite the unrestraint to
which she is introduced, she does not
for one moment lose her feminine
charm. She is odd, whimsical charm
ingly grotesque, but always womanly
and always lOvable.
In her portrayal of an old maid, Miss
Robson gives to the stage d new crea-
ton. There is not a suggestion of the
conventional type and not a detail of
her work that one would have changed.
