sented Billy the Boy Artist to the
readers of the Boston Sunday Globe
for ten successive years uninterruptedlyi
argues well for the success of his musical
comedy of the same name which he has
adapted from his own incidents IN the
columns Of that paper. In Billy ne
has a character to luggle with ana the
stunts that he sets the eccentric professors,

and the rest OF hi, now famous subjects
are of the kind that keep the audience IN
spasms of laughter from the rise to the iall
Of the curtain. The fun eliminates IN
the very udicrous scene in Chumpley
photograph gallery and with the antics OF

seen to be appreciated, Inc popular
prices that prevail for this engagement
should prove a means of attracting both
old and young. The date is Saturday,
April 9, matinee and night.
