AT THE LYRIC

''The Belle of Richmond" as pre- sented by the Frank Carpenter Stock company at the Lyric theatre this week, justifies in every respect the good words said for it in advance. for all who have thus far had the pleas ure of witnessing it's performances join in expressions of delight over it's many charms. The play is thorough ly interesting, and is so we'll produc- ed that it vies with any ever given 1t in former days, when it was such complete success about the coun. try.
 Two large audiences, that of the afternoon being only limited by the size of the theatre. attended the per- principals of the company every evil dence of approval. The play as a whole was thoroughly enjoyed, and the individual work of Miss Cleve- land, MT. Conness, MT. Carroll, Miss Carpenter, MT. Connor, and Miss MT. Connor, by the way is making his most emphatic hit this week in the character of Silas Smart,and if he keeps it up, as he has been doing, he will soon become one of the strong favorites of the cast
 Miss Warde is also we'll received in this play, better than she has before. She has a good part, and plays it exceedingly we'll. Miss Claribel Beck CT, also, is calling forth comment by her portrayal of the part of Rosa lind Mason, in which she appears to excellent advantage.
 Miss Cleveland, as Nellie Mason, the title role of the play, is as al- ways, genuinely clever. and she makes the most of a fine character Mir. Conness is also reaping a new harvest of golden opinion this week, and the same may be said of MT. Carroll, in the heavy" role of "Bill" Osmond All the roles. in fact. are splendidly cared for, and the play is mounted in the same elaborate manner as to detail and carefulness which has been shown by Manager 1sham in all the productions seen at the Lyric. this season.
 It is little wonder, with so clever a company and such fine stage produc- tions, that the Lyric has become the most favored place of amusement in the city, Or that the people are flock ing there to the full limit of it's seat ing capacity. When one can see such excellent offerings as the Carpenter company has provided, enacted in the best manner, and with such excellent stage settings, at the small prices charged, the Lyric certainly is the place which will take ones fancy, and it may be assured of the eager patronage of the people as long as the managers pursue their present satis- factory policy.
 "The Belle of Richmond will be the attraction all this week, and judging by the steady growth of the sale of of representative quality, are assured at every performance. "Get your seats early" you know, is the injunc- tion. and those who desire the best

 When Kyrle Bellew first produced the great detective play, Rallies, the Amateur Cracksman," 1t took hold of the popular favor in a single night It has since continued that prestige until the present, and it will form most powerful attraction for next week. The Carpenter company will surely give a performance of this ex- cellent play in a manner equal to any of their previous offerings, and there is no question that the theatre will be filled all the week.
 MT. Conness and MT. Carroll will be seen in the leading parts of the gen. tleman burglar and the detective, which were portrayed in the original production by Mr. Bellew and Edwin M Holland, and they may be relied upon to give impersonations which will compare most favorably with their predecessors. The entire strength of the Carpenter company will be seen in the play and it will be staged with every possible attention to detail and completeness.
 Seats are now on sale for "Raffles" and they are going very fast. The early callers are the ones who will get the best sittings. and therefore everyone should be prompt in making their selections.

POL.I'S

Trovato, the wonderful, continues to be the big hit of every perform ance at Polls Theatre this week. This great violinist can say more with his instrument than some per- formers can with their voice. Ev- erything about Trovato is original; {; he won't even hold his violin in the accepted manner, but. places it be- tween his knees, in order to leave his head free to beat time. Trovato Is a master of the violin in every sense of the word, yet he does not SCOTT to play popular melodies, and the way he hits off ragtime music sets He can make his violin sing, talk, and whistle-the boys in the gallery can't give a toot that Trovato can't answer exactly with his fiddle. He is a bundle of ginger and has per sonality that shoots over the foot lights and carries conviction with it.

The First Sea Fight
BY REV. THOMAS b. GREGORY.
By Tad

The old hate. born Of that first sea
fight q, years years before. was bearing
It's fruit In the. shape Of the famous
Peloponneslan war. which was to last
for twenty-seven years and to work the
harm 10 the higher human interests
which time should never be able TO undo.
Here are some of the things for which
the Peloponnesian war Is responsible.
II divided the Greeks, and thus made II
possible for them to be overrun. later on.
by Macedon and Rome.
II destroyed the Athenian empire. the
greatest agent OF progressive civilization
that the world has ever known.
II arrested. In a word. the great human
advance In art science. eioquence and
song. which had only Just fairly started
under the administration of Pericias at
Athens. and thus paved the way for
eighteen centuries Of mental darkness
and decrepitude,
Not until the middle OF the fourteenth,
century. when Petrarch began singing
the morning songs Of the revival Of let
tiers. did humanity begin TO emerge from
the intellectual and social squaior that
was made possible by that famous Tor
rather infamous) Peioponnesian war, the
most terrible disaster that ever befeil the
human race.
And II all came about as a result OF
the hate engendered by that first sea
fight off Cape Actium GO years before
the birth OF Christ. ~s... So $3.50
