A carious Jnmblo of plays and actors has occupied the various staca all the week, and they range from classic plays and tho frreatcst actors down to the Teriest drivel and the poorest interpreters possible. The pool has predominated, however, and 3Ir. Jefferson's short visit was as usual one of the creat treats of the year. The gap made toy Florence's death -was painfully noticea Dle in both "Tho Uivals" and "Tho Heir-at-3w." Louis James, pood actor as he is, is not comedian enough to take Florence s place. In fact "The Heir-at-Law" resolved itself into s vehicle for Mr. Jeffers-on alone, and not a vcrv good one at that. It is not snr prising that Mr. Jefferson intends to return to "Eip Tan Winkle" next season. The attraction at the Bijou Theater this weei will he the popular romantic actor Mr. Harrv Lacv, in a new military playf Jack Koyal of the S2J." Mr. Lacy has established for himself a leading place as a romantic sctor. Wisely has he chosen modern American plays for the dis. play of his abilities. As a heroic, self-saori-flcin;: fireman ho w on his Hi st laurels in a field that affords creat opportunities for his style ot actinc. A Jad: Jioi-aJ he portrays a voung military offlcor trained in the hard bnt highly efficient school of West Point, an academy where tho jrap.lc aro taught to command men by acquiring the more diffi cult ait of commanding themselves in every emergency that is likely to arise in peace or war. Jack Royal .is the central figure of a bright and bustling play, written for Mr. Lacy by Mr. A. C. Wheeler, better known to readers ot dramatic literature bv his nom do plume of Xym Crinkle. Jlr. Wheeler has put, it is sild, good work into "Jack lioyal of the Xicety-second." For his theme he chose the machinations of rebel sympathizers in New York during the War "of the Ucbellion. Some one s-aid while the country was in peril that the "left icing of Lee's army was in Xcw York." It may or may not be that Mr. Wheeler wrote ihe"rlav anon that hint. At all events he illustrates ii in a graphic form, "howins how tho emanes of tho Confederacy put forth cunning i.ieasures to thwnit efforts for the preservation of tho Ui.ion by operating, not in the flelc, but in Kew York. One of the stirring incidents of the piece is a graphic representation of the nistone diaft riot in Xiv 'ioik Citv in the early --ummer of ISfil In this stin.ug scene the rio''rs are shown in possesion of tho metiopo'is for a few hours, their discomfiture aid the exposure of the designing men ulio fomented the riot. TJnuu.illv rich in pecnerv is "Jack Kcyal of the 52J One setting is"a faithful reproduction of an ironworks, wherearmor plates for a monitor are being forged. An cthor shows a tunnel under the Harlem river where the insidious foes of the Union met to concoct their plans lor treason. A third retting is a place of refuge chosen br several prominent personages in the play while the draft riots raged fiercest. Hero the friends and foes of lav and order meet fice to face and right is enforced at the points cf baj-onels pushed by brave and patriotic men. 2?at Goodwin is badly in need of a new play, as he himself would confess probably as freelyas anyone. "The Xomince" is not worthy of him, and while it makes laughter, 3"sonear the border of indecency all tho time that it could not be a success generally In America, even if th, third act were not so weak dramatically. But Mr. Goodwin is still amazingly funnj.and by dint of fine per sonality ebiff'T A nlay that would bo chieflv low coraedv, with just enough real linrnan interest, and a httlj pathos, to afford relief, ought to tail in Mr. Goodwin's wav oneof thes-davs and when it docs he will make the countrv howl louder at him and for him than it has yet done. The Duquesne Theater will be in gala dress this week, for it has its manager's greatest production as an attraction. To morrow evening David Henderson's latest end much-talked-of spectacuiar production, Sinbad, or the Maid of JJalsora," will begin a week's engagement, presented by the American Extravaganza Companv. "Sin bad" is the legitmia'p successor to"Tho Crys tal felihpcr," -j. inch was received with such favor heie last vear. "Sinbad'" accomplished the marvelous feit if playing tor 15 consecu tive weeks in Chicago "last summer to the utmost capacity ot the Chicago Opera House; it then went loSt Louis for a week, and the entire company, numbeiing nearly 100 peo ple, and carrying three carloads of scenery, jumped directly Irom thcie to Sau Fran cisco, where they played a five-weeks' en gagemenl to the most phenomenal business ever known on the l'acitic coast. 'The organ ization has since completed another success ful run or four weeks in Chicago and pleased Cincinuatians last cek. The secnerv or the piece is most elaborato and abundant. The principal pictures in "Sinbad" are the port or Balsore nt day break, the deck of the fcmua-gler's vessel, the wreck, a tubuiarine tableau representing the shattered vessel lying in thedenths of the ocean, a romantic tropical island, a weird jungle at sunset, the trozen i alley of diamonds, inbaa3 ivory palace, and the concluding tableau, an idyllic transforma tion scene, represcntingin the most delicate colors tho artist's idea of "the morning of life." Tho piece is full of bright and catchy music. Several pretty dances are intro duced in the piece, but the most imposing is tho grand ballet, "A Winter Carnival," which oeenis in the rrozen valley of dia monds. Tin-, bullet is led by three premicro dancers, lleniietta Kosche, Madeline. Mo rando and Martha Irmler, and the cory phees aie attn-edto repiesenS snowflakes, icicles, sleigucrs, skaters, tobogganers, har lequins and h-iiloquinas. The entire cos tuming ot the piece is rich and gorgeous in Hie exticme, neatly COO costumes bcinguoed. Tho American Lxtinvaganza Company it self hardly needs comment. It is the same organ.zation that was here last vear, in cluding Ida Mulle, Topsy Venn, 'Frankie Kayinond, IJabette Hortnoy, Annie Dacre, Henry Xorman and E-lu in Foy, while the new members are Louise Lissin-r, Jessie Vil lars, Martha Irmler and Han Hart, Charles Crawrord, Harry MeKisson, Arthur Dunn and Spencer Gracey. Stuart Eobson's revival of "She Stoops to Conquer" was worthy of him as an artist of high aims. It -n as beautirully staged, tho rcenery being indeed as lino as any ever seen here in its realistic fidelity and clever painting. As to tho Tony Lumpkin Mr. Kob Fon gave us opinions seem to differ, and the acceptance of this rendering of Goldsmith's character would seem to depend upon how the spectator liked Mr. Eob ton's little tricks and style as a comedian. The Tony was far more Eobson's than Goldsmith's, and while it wr funny, it did not 'show any very pubtle reading of the character, in my opin ion. Avery able critic who reviewed the performance for The Dispatch on last Mon day night has already ttated a somewhat contrary view, but everybody seems to agree that tho whole performance was aitistic and therclore worthy of the sup port the public gave it. Mr. Kobson is per Jectly nt home and himself in Bertie, and "The lleniietta" delighted the people who saw it as much as ever. The new plays produced in Xew York last week do not appear to have amounted to much. Tho most successful premiere was probably that of Harrigan's "Last of the Hogans," and about this Arthur Brisbane writes The DisrATCH: "It won't live long. The good thing in the new play is the littlo Hogan girl, who, ignoring everything else, asks calmly for tho inheritance or all the Hogans that she may take the money to her mother. Miss Ada Lewis, Mr. Ilairigan-s tamoas TovghGirl, who made the success of "The Four Hundred," is fitted out with many new dresses, but no new part a great loss. As many negiocsand many Irishmen fight and sing in tnepiece.it will last some tf in", but it is not a genuine Harrigan suc cess."

Next Week Carroll Johnson in "The Gossoon." des5-57 has served Mr. and Mrs. Sydney Drew for a first jrun in their new camnaijrn. It is called "That Girl From Mex-'co," and, like most of the new plav nowaday?, is "iounded" on an old farce bv J. MaddUon Morton, tho En glish farceVriter, who died tho other day. Morton, by tho way, wrote an enormous number of farces which have been acted in England and here. Mr. Gordon has Belectod "Wlio Killed Cock Robin?" it is commonly chnrgod, and the critics do not give his boil down or boil-over much praise. Still the yonnjr Drews made a hit in it, especially Mrs. Drew, who is being hailed as the com ing comedienne. A novelty comes to the Grand Opera House this week in the shape of Herbert HallWinslow's sensational comeuy urania, "Birds of a Feather." which will bo played by Marie Sailer, Charles Bowser, and a com pany of well known people. The play con tains a number of strong and thrilling situa tions, while there is an abundance of fun supplied by ten comedy actors. New scen ery is carried by the company and a num ber of mechanical and realistio effects will be shown. A real cotton pin in full opera tion will be seen in the South Carolina plant ation scene. The well known minstrel, Frank McNish, will appear in white face for the flrst time, and will' also introduce his wonderful pantomimic, acrobatio specialty. In the third act occurs the most thrilling sensational scene. A cotton warehouse is in flames. A voung man is imprisoned in the building. The heroine, who has been locked in a smoke house across the load, escapes through the roof, walks a sinele telegraph wire across to the burning build ing and rescues tho young man from tho flames. Richard Mansfield, one of the most ac complished artists on tho American stage, will appear with a strong company at the Alvin Theater this week in this remarkable repertoire: Monday, "Beau Brummell;" Tuesday, "Prince Karl;" Wednesday mati nee, "Beau" Brummell;" Wednesday night, "A Parisian Romance:" Thursday, "Don Juan;' Fiiday, "Beau Brummell;" Saturday matinee, "Don Juan;" Saturday night, "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde." Mrs. Burnett's famous play "Little Lord Fountleroy," will be seen at Harris, Britton & Dean's comfortable theater this week. Without any great moral it teaches senti ments that are good, noble and true. The company engaged to present the play this season is Eaid to be one of the best ever seen in the city in tho comedy. The title role is alternated by Mabel Walsh and Lillian Masterson, two bright talented stars. Chas. A.IIaswin, as the old Eail, is also said to display considerable talent and to portray the role in an effective manner. The bal ance or the support is composed of people of recognized ability. Harry "Williams Academy offers another week of strong attractions on Monday. New Year's week will be a notable one for tho patrons of this popular place. The attrac tions will be Sam Devere's Own Company, an aggicgation of first-class artists and spe cialists in thu best lines of variety business.

Carrie, will appear and give performances on her wonderful bells.

Tho Mexican wonder, Yauola, will exhibit his remarkable skill in balancing. Those ex pert aerial comedians, Lord and Rowe, will startle audiences with their acts, and "Chip," the "Bov-Wonder." appears at every performance. Then there aro the Nelson Sisters, dashing and attractive burlesque artists. Finally, Piof. D. Burke's boxing dogs give imitations of famous pugilists. The wizard, Keutz, arouses wonderment, and tho "Only Sam Devere" gives his inim itable songs and sayings. HEPBOBir Joiras, Harry Davis Museum Theater.

Frankie Raymond, who was the dashing Cuptem Riff Raff of "The Crystal Slipper," is now appearing as a gauze-clad Cupid in "Sinbad" and a very charming Cupid she is said to make. Mr- Irvino recently said that an inde pendent theater, snehasa lot of cranks want to erect in Boston and New York, in order to produce their own plays, which no manager with a regard for his life would dare touch, must, to desorve its name, be independent of actors, managers, papers, musicians and public "The New Twelve Temptations," Mr. W. J. Gilmore's splendid spectacular produc tion, with all of its wealth of scenery, cos tumes, etc., will follow Harry Lacy at the Bijou. It is claimed that its scenery, etc., is all brand new, and that the ballets and spe cialties are away beyond the ordinary. Speaker Crisp, of the Houso of Representa tives, is a biother of the lato Harry Crisp, who used to play Captain Standiih so well in Augustin Daly's "Pique," and who was the original My Partner, when Louis Al drich made such a tiemendous hit with that play in the Uuion Squaie Thcatera dozen years ago. Crisp was one of the handsomest men on the stage. When Miss Grace Filkins resigned from the Rosina Vokes Company, all tho players, with tho exception of Felix Morris, present ed the auburn-haired eomedienno with a "round robin," in which they expressed their "fullest esteem and respect." This Is a most unusual thing for a band of players to do, and it shows, above all else, just bow un popular Felix Morris is. There aro two new theaters talked of pretty definitely for New York. One is to be built for Richard Mansfield on Twenty-ninth street and Fifth avenue. Tho theater is to be built on a most luxurious plan. Tho foyer will De beautiful. There will be a suite of salons for ladies where they can retire at the matinees and sip tav. For the men there will bo a large smoking room and a billiard room. The other theater is to be between Thirty-ninth and Fortieth streets, on Broad wav, and Al Hayman and Frank W. Sanger are talkod of as the managers. It will cost $",00,000.

The scenery is all special and the accuracy of the pictures of Killar ney Lakes and surroundings is vouched for. I was considerably startled on entering Daniel Frohman's private office to see a man standing on a high pedestal, gazing in tently, as though at some awful sight, says a Jlirrcr writer. My second thought was that the man was beins photographed. It turned out to be a wax fianro of EZ II. Sothern in "The Dancing Girl," made by the Eden Musec for Daniel Frohman. It is a ghatly piece of work, audit Is my hope that Mr. Sothern never sees it. It runs to cuffs which flares out like the mouth of a clarionet.
