C0MLNC ATTRACTION'S.
"THR OLD HOMESTEAD!' "Tho
Old Homestead." the piny which len
man Thompson wrote and which hits
become so famous will be tho attraction
at the Academy of Music next Monday
and Tuesday evenings, presented by the
same excellent conumny as seen here
before. Wherever 'The Old Homesteud"
hns been presented Its country scenes
have been the most enjoyed. because the
people who live In cities nnd who spend
their days In active enterprise and en
ergetic work, have been attracted to
what they know lenst of In real life.
On the old Swnnzcy farm as one sees
It In "The Old Homesteud," there Is no
business save thnt of a direct out-door
nature.
"THE I7PS AND DOWNS OF LIFE"
The Christmas day attraction at the
Academy will be Oliver Dourt liyron
and his company In the "I'ps and
Downs of Life." performances will bo
given both afternoon nnd evening. For
a good ninny years Oliver liyron xnd
his gifted wife. Kate, have been great
favorites In this city. For years Mr.
ltyron has tried the higher walks of tnp
drnmn, but his public has Insisted upon
the old order of things. He for years
played "Across the Continent," and so
successful were his efforts that ho is
.undoubtedly one-of U.- ..wealthiest ac
'tors'on the American stage.
