LYRIC THEATRE.

At the Lyric Theatre next week the
patrons will have an opportunity of
witnessing what will be the most pre-
tentious production of "Forty-five Min
utes from Broadway" ever seen here at
popular prices.
Mr.. Peruchi has been preparing for
the attraction for several weeks and he
announces that nothing will be omitted
in making a notable presentation of a
musical comedy play that will always
be popular.
1t is often mistaken for a musical
show with the numbers depending up
on their success for the play to go
over the footlights. 1t should be re-
membered that "Forty-five Minutes
from Broadway" has a plot, a villain,
hero and heroine, and even if the
songs were not used it would still be
a strong bidder for popular favor.
But Mr.. Peruchi will have all the
songs that have made the show fam
Gus and in addition to the entire COM
pany, there will be specially rehears-
ed singing and dancing chorus. The
patrons will also enjoy Kid Burns as
impersonated by Mr.. Peruchi. The
press of Montgomery and other South
ern cities were flattering in speaking
of his work in the part Dainty, capti-
waiting Mabel Gypzene will play and
sing to the delight of htr large number
of friends as Mary.

The QUAKER GIRL, AT THE TU-

Inc great three-act musical play,
The Quaker Girl" which comes to the
Tulane Theater for the week beginning
Sunday, Oct. 20, is a happy combina
ton OF pretty faces, catchy songs, clev-

1t is light and breezy and there is not
the slightest touch of the crude or

hrst act is laid in an English Quaker
village but after that the principals
cross the channel into France and
seem to like the Partisan atmosphere
so well that they stay there until the

Al r FIELD GREATER MINsTRELs
COMING.

"Au Halloween" or "Lish Murn's
Dream" the dancing advertisement
and scenic spectacle with Al. G. Fields
greater minstrels, which comes to the
popular Crescent Theatre Sunday, DC
tober 9th. for a weeks engagement, is
built on an old negro tradition narrat-
I'D TO Field by an ex-slave. During the
days before the war in the South this
story was always included in mothers
repertoire Of bedtime stories, and the
colored nurses in the homes OF the
whites always RECALLED their charges
nightly with their graphic description
of old Lish Murn and his dream.
In the Field production the exterior
of the aged negro's cabin melts away
as the Ethiopian is under lhe effects OF
jugful of liquor he mas quaffed, ana
the interior of the cottage is shown.
Then the dream takes the spectator to
Goblin Dell, where the dancing con-
tingent offer a number of surprising
novelties.
Melting away, Goblin Dell gives
place to a vivid production of Hades,
where Lish Murn is taken as punish
ment for being a good-for-nothing mig
ger on earth. Here, too, the scenic
effects are quite startling, and the dis
play closes with the interior OF the
cabin when Lish awakens ready to
take the pledge and taboo liquor for
the rest of his life.
The Gold Band, new departure In
minstrelsy, is one of the novelties this
season. Two free concerts will be Of
fered daily during the engagement
