JACKSON'S VAUDEVILLE.
 The famous Kings Ladies Philhar- monic Band who will appear at Jack sons theatre all this week, with the exception of Wednesday when James K Hackett, will hold the boards, met with the greatest of success upon their triumphal tour of the leading cities on the continent from whence they have only recently returned. The leading musical critics in Berlin, Leipzic, Buda- Pasth, and in fact all the lead ing musical centres of Europe were most generous and unanimous in praising the excellent work of this or ganization, and they were every where accorded a hearty welcome. Their en- gagement at Jackson's this week marks their initial appearance before a Bridgeport audience and it is ex- pected that their reception here will he but repetition of the welcome ex- tended them wherever they have. ap- peared. Seldom, if ever has such a remarkable aggregation been assem- bled upon a Vaudeville stage, and it will probably be the first, last and only time the local music lovers will be en- abled to hear them, as they are soon to appear in Grand concert. Thirty four beautiful and talented young la dies comprise the band, and each and every one IS a SOlOist of exceptional ability While their playing is all that COuIQ De QSST6O, IL IS LIlG dlLIdCIl% c. ness of their programs which meets with the greatest favor. They do not attempt to render an entirely classical program but choose their selections from among the gems of the more re- cent composers. and as a result their selections are popular, up-to-date and of the whistable variety. Included among the modern music masters whose works will be rendered during 1 the current engagement are Victor | Herbert, DeKoven, Klein. Hoschna, Weinrich, Hubbell, and others of the same prominence. This act is one Of | the largest and most expensive ever seen in this city, and is only one of l the many features Manager Jackson | has arranged for his vast clientele of l ratrons. Included on the bill for to- | day and tomorrow are Weston ana Young. two eccentric comedians who present a clever and amusing bit of comedy, and Dorothy Manners, the fr- | repressible singing comedienne. The subjects, one stirring Western num- l usual three reels of interesting picture l ber will be exhibited. While this bill 1 is one of the most elaborate and cost Hest that has ever been seen in this city, there will be no increase in that
 absurdly low admission price of ten
 cents. The Usual three daily perform
 ances will be given, one in the after
 noon at 2:30 and two in the evening at
 and 8:3O p. m. The evening enter
 tainment is practically continuous as
 the intermission is of a very short duration.
