Novelties With Chicago elee Club.

Not only does the Chicago Glee Club.
which comes to City Hall Friday eve
ming, possess the finest male quartet
in the country, but they present in
their unusually varied and we'll bal
anced program two novelties which
have no equal
The first is their celebrated from
bone Quartet made world famous on
the records of the Victor Talking Ma
chine. The trombone is the king
of wind instruments, and the effect of
the four, as played by these artists on
their especially made instruments of
gold, is a revelation of sweet tonal
quality and organ like volume. The
Atlanta (Ga.) Journal says. This was
"a special feature of the evening. They
Were encored again and again. and
gracefully and graeiously responded"
The York (Nebr.) Times. The power
and sweetness of these instruments
were a revelation"
Another taking feature is Mr.. Dixon
with his character approximations in
makeup. His types are taken from
llife-wholesome, refreshing, real, never
overdrawn or exaggerated. The Lin
lcoin (Nebr) Journal says, 1.-The char
aeter sketch The Hoosier' in which Mr.
Dixon appears as an aged tobacco
chewing Hoosier with white beard
anG told What the fellars thought
We're the best things to eat was so
natural that the audience entirely for
got that they were listening to an i'm
personator. Later he appeared as an
old man with a love for music. and
with the quartet sang old time songs
which brought back "reminiscences and
tears to many an eye" The Man
chester (conn.) Herald says, Mr.
Dixon as an impersonator of an old
man is without a superior on any
stage. His work was the feature of
the evening and aroused great en-
| thusiasm."

Uncle Toms Cabin.

The Stetson Big Double Uncle
Toms Cabin Co. which appears at
Opera house, Friday matinee and
night, Dec. 1st is making grand
spectacular scenic production of this
grand play this season. The scenery
has been painted specially for this re-
viva1 and included a number of hand
some scenes reproduced from photo
graphs of the localities mentioneu IN
the book. as they were at the time
when the great authoress first wrote
the, story, more then fifty years ago.
Some of the most notable of these are
the "Suwanee River" by moonlight, the
cotton fields in full bloom, the Ohio
river in winter and the escape of Eliza
carrying her child across the floating
ice, the rocky pass in which George
Harris made his stand against the men
pursuing him, and protects his family;
the St. Clair plantation, and the levee
lat New Orleans, showing a slave auc-
ticn; Legrec's plantation, and, lastly.
the beautiful transformation scene
showing Eva's ascension to the Celes-
tial City. The play has long since
been public property and has been
played by many poor companies until
the public has come to recognize the
fact that none but Manager Washburn
has the one great unequalled organiza-
ton. and that is why his production
always brings the theatre going crowd.
The Stetson production is judicially
considered an era in the history of
