Annie Grady frees the estate and advances Jerry Doyle, a noble, rolicking son of Erin, to the steward ship of the estate. As the central character In this breezy four-net comedy. It is said Tony Farrell, the star, displays the Irish brightness, the blar ney gloss of tongue, sin?s charmingly, and, in short, gives a masterly interpretation of a rollicking, melodious Irish lad. Incident ally, Mr. Firrell nightly introduces his Irish balads, and to tho melodious strains of the Irish pipes his inimitable Irish reel. The supporting company is said to be one of exceptional merit, embracing Frank Keenan, W. J. Harney, Said Smith. George Ea'l.May Thomnson'and a list of others, among whom flits and prattles Little Honor, one of the sweetest children on the stage. The little child is said to be quite a finished actress and nightly shares in tho plaudits of the evening. The piece is staged in the most elaborate manner. During the action of the play Mr. Farrell will sing "They Can't Stop the Sun," "Whisper," "Tell Them You're Irih." "Liltlo Dewdfon." "My Irish Colleen," "Shamrock, Thistle and Rose," "McCormick's the Man," "Don't Run Down the Irish," "Ireland's Native Green." To-morrow night the famous Meininger Company will make their first appearance in this city at the Dnquesne Theater. For their opening play the company has se lected "Julius Cjesar," in which their most substantial success was achieved. No other drama offers like opportunities for the dis play of the entire strength or the cast as well as the great masses of people employed in the production, In the handling or whom the Meininger has never been surpassed. Although there are no stars, everyone in the cast Is an actor of reputation for many years, tried before he could gain admission to this world-famous company. Many of the prominent actors in this company are known far beyond the boundaries of their own country. This entire company created a sensation in New York by tlieio, artistic and clever work, and .Matthieu Pflel, who. In a great measure resembles the great McCnl lough. Is Germany's ideal Brutus, and will be seen In that character in this production. This play will be given every evening during the week with matinees Wednesday and Saturday. The massive structural quality of the famous Meininger scenery will have splendid display on the stage of the Duquesne on which also the tumultuous citizens in the mob scenes will rnn riot. It is so seldom that the theater-goers in this city are treated to such a great European at traction as this one without having to pay an advance o'f 50 cents to $1 50 per scat. "Old Jed Prouty," with its quaint real Ism and "Down East" coloring, is the attrac tion at the Alvin Theater, opening to-morrow night, with matinees on Wednesday and Saturday. As presented by Kichard Golden (Ofa Jed is a figure in the dramatlo portrait gallery that will be used for com parison long after the actor has made his final exit. It is tolerably faithful In detail, genial in humor, winsome in gentle personal ity, and is likely to endure. New Englanders of tho "Old Jed Prouty" type are popular, because they recall tender memories, or af ford a glimpse of unfamiliar scenes. The droll old tavern keeper, tho weather beaten taxgatherer, the venerable constable, the gawky teamster, the little waif, the village belle, the bold intruder in the cnlso of the Boston drummer, nil eive life to this qtinint story, which interests every body. Following is the cast: Old Jed Prouty, landlotd of tho Prouty Tavern, Richard Golden; Lige (his son), Hanley Wooster, T. P. Ri?gs; Beacon Hill, Joseph Conjer3: John Todd, Harry Rich; Joseph Stovers, a trades man, Y. C. Wells; Aaron Bemmway, a lawyer, IV. C. Holden; Zack Wilcox, town crier, con stable, etc,, Frank E. Jackson: McOinnis, a policeman, Fred Wright; Zack Sard;, Valen tine Tonclure, H. M. Morse; Prof, Wagetspink, the eminent archseoloitist, Thomas Wardell; Dick Stubbs, Ply, Master James Carroll; Martha Giddens, Bertha Foy: Fanny Todd, Annie Caiter: Tribulation Prouty, J&Ti. Frank A. Tannehill: Mrs. Stubbs, Jeannette, Annie Phil lips; Alice, Little Millie Smith. To-morrow evening at the Grand Opera House will be in every particular a festive one.it being the three-hundredth consecntive performance of "The Tar and The Tartar," and in honor of the event the theater will be transformed into a floral garden. The front of the stage, boxes and the galleries will bo decorated with flags, greens, smilax and cut flowers, while on each side of the stage will be erected large stands upon which palms and growing plants will be placed, and each lady will be presented with one or "the famous souvenir spoons. The return of this organization, which is one of the best on the road, will also Insure a week of delightful performances, as the success achieved by the company early in October in this city, will be recalled with pleasure by all who witnessed this opera. The cast still retains that inimitable comedian Digby Bell and his talented wife, Laura Joyce Bell; the charming prima donna Marion Manoia; pretty Josie Knapp: that clever baritone, Hubert Wilke: Fred Frear, Charles Wayneand Maudand Hilda Holllns. Many changes have been, made in both the story and the music of the opera; Marion Manoia has two new songs, Digby Bell and his wifo have elaborated their parts so that it is one big lauab from the time the cur tain goes up until the end of the opera, some new and very pretty costumes have been made and will be worn here for the first time, i The unusually heavy advance sale or seats insures one or the largest at tendances ever seen in a theater in this city on a Monday evening. Borne of the names in the company which comes to Harry Williams' Academy this week are or world-wide fame. Among the stars of the Mildred Novelty Company is Mildred herself, the beautiful mind reader, a youngVoman whose tests of thought trans mission are said to excel tho late Irving Bishop; Roncnre, the necromancer: O'Brien and Bedding, Paulinettl, the bead balancer, McAvoy and Rodgers, Charles Mnckie. Ranza and Arno, Foster and Lewis, and Roach and Castleton, etc Beside the abovo list, there are Cyclops and Sandowe, two men whose feats in heavy weight lifting, chain, wir and leather strap breaking, astonished all Europe. These men aro said to be the two strongest men on earth, and they offer to give any man who will Hit their weights 1100 at every performance no one is bai-red. .Louis Cyr and Sebastian Miller are invited to compete with these men, and Cyclops andl San do we will wager any sum of money from 1 i,wu io to, on iae result. Of all the plays telling of life in the great metropolis tho scenic oomedy success, "Lost In New York," has stood the test of time bettor than them all. The reason is that the plot Is good and tho sconlo effects artistic Miss Louise Galloway is cast as Jennie Wil ton, and she gives the character a pertness and -iash, It is said, that renders her a prime favorite whorever she is seen. The others in the company are fully competent to ren der their roles in a satisfactory style. The drama will be seen at Harris Theater this week, commencing to-morrow afternoon. There is no comic opera star that comes to Pittsburg who Is more sure of a hearty wel come than Agnes Huntington. It is almost time for her to appear. She is booked for next week at the Duquesne JTheater. A new opera comique will b e given on that occa sion, "Captain Therese," by Planquette, whose "Chimes or Normandy" still echo pleasantly. Miss Hnntington plays the hero ine Therese, and assnmes fof apart of the' time the masculine disguise which becomes her so well. I hear that Miss Huntington is in great voice, and that she is ehannine in tho new role. Her company contains 70 people, and Is as it was last year well-balanced and strong in the chorus. "Paul Jones" was so well liked here last vear that it will be revived thelatterpart of the week. Serious criticism would be thrown away upon "Dr. Bill." IUs the sort of play that more than anything else brings the drama Into disrepute. To the pure all things are pure, but nobody but a child could mistake the meaning or certain situations and speeches in "Dr. Bill," or fail ,to resent its gross indecency. There is broad .fun of a comparatively harmless kind in the piece, but its strength resembles that of Limbur ner cheese. The nntin nt the Alvin Theater during the week was better than the piece uesecvea, ontnot remarEaosy goou ac mat. As for "Sunset," the capacity of Jerome K. Jerome to drivel inanely was never so splendidly shown. "Niobe" is a restful' relief from the mo notonous stream or farce comedy. A large part of Its charm, as has already been noted here, is Miss Coo's admirable performanceor the title role. Her rise has been so rapid, and her development as an artist so great. that Itishaid to gauge the possibilities of her future. When an actress possesses as a basis a personality naturally magnetic, and is disposed to work hard, success is certain ly hers in these days. The women who by themselves aro charming are very rare on the stage. IlErncnx Johms, World's 3f.useum-Theater. As there seems to be no abatement in the popular curiosity to see the two-headed boy, the World's managers have resolved to re tain him as the chief curiosity in their house for another week. But this week will posi tively be the last that this singular freak of nature, which is both a scientific wonder and a pleasant sight, will be In Allegheny. The Tocci twins, as the two-headed boy is rather improperly called, for it is certainly but a single personality, has been examined by many curinu3 doctors as well as laymen, and all alike bear witness to the authenticity of the bond which makes these two small bodies one flesh. In the curio, Morris and Lamar, the mind readers, and other notable entertaining features will be provided. In tho theater a complete comedy, called "Wild Oats" will be given by a strong com pany of comedians. In this play, which is said to be lull of honest fnn, any number of artistic specialties will be Introduced. With this attractive programme the popular Alle gheny house should be crowded as usual this week. Harry Davis' Maseain -Theater. The brotners Pugal, those noted tamers of wild beasts, are booked to open at Harry Davis' Fifth Avenue Museum-Tneater to morrow and to appear with their troupe of trained Russia nbears. One of them wrestles with the elder Pugal. Bruin employs all the tactics of the professional wrestler. Another feature Is the living mermaid, said to be the most beautiful and deceptive illusion ever conceived. Still another strong feature is Clifford, styled the human claw-hammer, who draws railroad spikes with his teeth. Ho is a wonder. The Eleotrlo Trio, from Convent Garden, London, England, will also be seen. In the theatonnm. a strong dra matic company will appear in that Irish emotional dramy "Kathleen Mavoureen." The cast is a strong one. Stage TFcIspers. Haboaxxt Mather with several new plays comes to us in February. Feed Solomon will Join Pauline Hall's company as comedian and stage manager on May 16.

The advance -sale- of seats for Monday evening at the'Grand Opera House is the largest, it is said, ever known in the history of this city. "Souvenir spoons" have proven a good drawing card. Madame Modjeska has entirely recovered her health and in consideration of the fact that she disappointed Pittsburgers once, has consented to appear in this city before the close of the season.

Bosiua Vokes, one of the brightest and most conscientious artists now before the public, has added several new comedies to her already very extensive repertoire, and will be seen in Pittsburg at no distant day. Digby Bell Is the nappy possessor of a magnificent Irish setter which was the property or tho late Irish leader, Parnell. It was presented by Parnell to Mayor Grant, or New York, who in turn gave it to Mr. Bell. The Chicago Dramatic News appeared last week, and a very handsome counterpart of its Now York namesake it is. Leander Bicbardson promises to make It a sharp race between his two papers, and both are good enough to win.. It Is now reported that Henry C. De Mille and W. H. Gillette are writing a new and original play called "Hamlet." It is believed to contain some of the finest dialogue by William 8hakespeare that either Mr. De MUle or Mr. Gillette ever wrote, says Chi cago's Dramatic News. It is said that pretty Josie Knapp, of "The Tar and Tartar" company, is the possessor of quite a nice piece of land in the new oil country, and has been offered a large ad vance by the Standard Company. Her nncle, Charles'Yagol, the old and well-known resi dent, left it to her some five years ago. Edwin Booth, I am told by an Intimate friend or his, is in better health than he has been for a year, and he is in quite good spiiits, says a writer in the Mirror. He went out one night, last week, to see Francis Wilson in "The Lion Tamer," and I saw him laughing heartily at the antics of the acro bat. Marios' Hakola and her husband, John Mason, made an investment'ln real estate in Philadelphia last spring on Twelfth street, near Arch, and sold the same last week for double what they paid for it. It occupies a position that compelled the Beading Baii road to buy or discontinue bullulug tneir new station. Off the stage Sol Smith Russell is 'the same quiet, easy man as behind the foot light'. His voice is smooth, of a low key, and he talks readily and fluently. Ho uses less "makeup" than anyone on tho stage; he does not wear a wig, and, except a sus picion of white and a little logue, uses no paint. He will be seen at the Alvin Theater week of Fcbuary 1. Emma V. Shehidait has dramatized the well-known novel, "JEIO.OOO a Year." and Richard Mansfield has accepted it. He will give it a production at the Garden Theater, the second week of his engagement there, which begins on February 15. In the com edy Mr. Mansfield will play the part of Sir Tittlebat Titmouse, the clerk who suddenly acquires a title and a fortune. The oldest member or the dramatic pro fession in the world, died at Nemours, France, on Wednesday last. His name was Chollet, but it has naturally long since-disappeared from the play bills, for its owner wan born in 1708. He created, tho part of the Postillion de Lonjvmeau, the part afterward' made celecrated by WatchteL and he was also tho first repiesentatlve of the leading character in "Zampa." The number of Pittsburg's successful as pirants for histrionfo honors is Increasing. In the "Niobe" company the lady who ap pears as'the Cantankerous llelen Origin under the stage name of Fitzpatrlck, is Miss Maggie Muhlenbring, of this city, whose brother is favorably known in the tailoring trade. Miss Muhlonbring's work shows that ahe haa J SETT FACTS WORTH .

Mr. Eichaud Majisfibid appears to have "pulled the legs" of the Associated Press when he gave it out that he would abandon bill posting and advertise only in the news papers, says the Chicago Dramatic News.

Hesbt Bagoe is a "handsome and, capable young English actor, who came to New York on his own hook a few months ago. He saw and loved pretty Julia Arthur, and thought she had accepted him. Then B igge whispered his love to Mr. Brown, of Sim monds & Brown, the-dramatic agents, in confidence, and Brown "gave it away" to the dramatic papers, who published the news. For this Julia. Arthur throw Bagge over, as she does not desire to appear as an engaged woman, now that she belongs to A. M. Palmer's stock company. Then some "good friend" who knew Bagge on the other side intimated that he already was mar ried; that made Bagze furious, and at last account the theatrical tempest in a teapot tooted tempestuously through the theatri cal throng with a terrible thunder that threatened tremendous things.
