The present cast is rather stronger than the original Garrick cast. It retain Jessie Millward, an actress of -whom Rochester theater-goers have heard much. and Beatrice Irwin, an English girl imported by Mr. Frohman from Charles London company, who makes her mcrican debut in "There's Many a Slip."

I2m MATINEE WEDNESDAY, NOV. 12TH, CHARLES FROHMAN PRESENTS Tav at School. Will head tile nui oi varieties this week at the Cook Opera House. Mr. Leech is an eccentric comedian of elongated physique and dry comedy methods.

His caricature of tho rural pedagostie is grotesquely humorous. The sketch is a hodgepodge of nonsense, with musical interruptions by the "Rose- buds," eccentric dancing by Mr. Leech, and a bit of acrobatic comedy with a flight of steps that never fails to evoke shouts of laughter. A one-act comedy by Ella Wheeler Wilcox, "Her First Divorce Case," will be presented by Mattie Keene and company, Miss Keene appearing in the role of a female lawyer. The story of the little play suggests a variation of Bronson Howard's "Young Mrs.

Winthrop," broadened to meet the requirements of vaudeville. The San Francisco Examiner of "Her First Divorce Case:" "It gives a good measure of god fun and a snug touch here and there of that heart to heart philosophy that has made tae writer so popular among both wies. Mattie Keene idavs the legal lady in a large, cordial manner and gives us a moment of pathos in a voice that positive- i ly drips." George Felix and Lydia Barry will be seen in a sketch cajled "Johnny Jones." The dines are said to be keen and Mr. Felix gets as much un as ever out of an old plank, the under side of a table and a "prop" fence. Some, good comedy juggling is promised by Sam Elton, whos-e work is sai to resemble that of Sparrow.

Royle's successful comedy, "Friends," many out-of-town managers having made a request for this play. Clara Bloodgood is going to star soon in Clyde Fitch's new play, "The Girl with the Green Eyes." Mrs. Bloodgood probably will have to make-up her eyes to enact the title-role, which must have been suggested by James Richmond (Ilenroy, known to fame in vaudeville as "the win with the green gloves."

Hamlin, of a grandson of the late Hon. Hannibal Hamlin, was presented late last spring by the Eastern Maine Musical Association. A flattering guaranteed subscription has been raised for a repetition in October, but the professional future, of the piece may ptevent this compliment to the authors being realized. For the first three weeks of Miss Henrietta Crosman's present engagement at Walla cks Theater, New York, in "The Sword of the King," the receipts were twice as big as they were for the first three weeks of "Mistress Nell." her orig- inai great success. This difference may be accounted for in part by the size of the theaters, the Bijou where "Mistress Nell' was presented being much smaller thani i-' that he was decorated by the French government with the cross of the Legion of Honor.

Mr. Emanuel has been a great traveler and it is said that there is hardly a capi.ai in the world, outside of China, where he has not held the baton over some orchestra directing a performance of opera. By the 1st of January Henry W. Savage will have on his pay roll more than 700 people, all singers. This puts Mr.

Savage at the top of the list of those managers employing musical talent and next season it is more than probable that the number will be increased by more than half as this wideawake manager is contemplating several new productions. It is also more than likely that he will put out a second I "I'riiyie of Pilsen" company after the first of the year, as the success of the present organization is so enormous that it cannot 11 the time that managers all over the country are willing to put aside. The verdict apparently is that De Wolf Hopper is Mr. Tick wick in the comic opera of that name, founded on Dickens's character and book, all except his feet. Writing in the Minenapolis Journal, W.

B. Chamberlain says: "His Pickwick makeup is a marvelous euccees. In sp-ite of his great height, which one might expect to disqualify him for the pudgy and ponderous president, he gets himself up to look exactly as if be had stepped out of an illustration in 'Pickwick But he capers about in a manner that would have shocked the real Mr. Pickwick inexpressibly, and continually craeks very Hopper-esque jokes." While in Morocco last summer, Rudolph Aronson composed a Moorish Intermezzo, "The Caravan," which he played for, and dedicated to. tie Sultan of Morocco.

This has just be-n published and Mr. Aronson has forwarded to Fez band parts for fifty musicians, comprising the private band of his Majesty. Kocian, the young Bohemian violin virtuosi who is under Mr. Aronson's management, will give a special concert before the Sultan of Morocco in April next (following his American after which he is to give two coireerts in Paris, two concerts in Prague: and in June and July he will again visit in London. "Peggy from Paris," George Ade's new musical comedy, which Henry W.

Savage is to shortly produce, takes its title from the name of one of the principal characters, although born in the Middle West and living there for a good many years, goes to Paris as the companion of a wealthy lady and returns to this country as a full fleged opera singer, who is p.opti- latly supposed to speak at best a little broken English. She even deceives her own father into ihe belief that her cockney maid is herself. It is said that in the book George Ade has keenly satirized the -menean gin no goes anroa.i and upon her return finds there is nothing as g.xjd at home as she found in foreign lands. Julian Edward, the composer of the comic opera which Fred C. Whitney has produced under the title of "Whin Johnny Comes Marching Home," is naturally molest in bis expressions concerning his own score, but he Les say: "Never iu my entire experience have I seen so much enthusiasm stirred iu an audience as is the case iu this piece.
