LYRIC THEATER.

An old method of procedure that has been in vogue for time unknown is to put the best fruit at the top of |the basket. The management of the Lyric Theater has revised this pro- cess, as the opening bill this week aas demonstrated. Since the reopcning Of this beautiful play house the excel lence of the offerings has increased land the program for the first three days is the best that has been pre- scented heretofore, and from advance notices tney will continue until ihe acme of perfection is attained
 Wagner and Diggs have a comedy offering that is extremely clean. II r4ls the gamut of conjugal felicity, intermingled wiah clean situations and intermingled with soio upon a clarinet in which a poodle dog assists in a canine accompaniment. Miss Diggs Is a charming foil to the clever male end of the duo.
 The Kalinowski Brothers are with out exception the cleverest pair Of equilibrists and acrobats that has ever visited our city. The ease and grace with which they perform the most "dlIncult Dalancng IeatS IS a feNeiatlon |in the art of equilibrium.
 Roberts and Fulton deserve a niche in the hall of comedy fame They pre- sens a turn that is a riot from start to finish. Miss Fulton is unquestion- ably the greatest comedienne that has appeared here She kept the aud fence in roar of laughter every min ute she was on the stage Their clos ing song was the signal for repeated recalls.
 The pictures were the best that have been seen this season. The one entitled An Arabian Tragedy. a Ka- lem film, taken in the Orient with all the accompanying oriental sur |roundings. camels. desert and luxur- ions eastern interiors comprising a picture that as a whole has never been surpassed.
