At the Academy of Music today Uu He Akerstiom and company will present "The Streets of New Yoik," and to night "The Crushed Tragedian." The engagement closes Saturday and on the nfternoon of that day the' com pany will present "Cinderella." At night they will be seen in "A Waif of London." Wilson in Haifa King. Francis Wilson is sure of a hearty welcome this evenlnir nt the l.vnm lie secured the iinquallued endorsement oi me pumic last year and his opera, "Half a King," proved to be one of the most successful productions of the season. "Half a Klnr" Is a distinct advance upon the average which has been maintained during the ;;..t few years. The libretto has been r.Uopte.1 tnun the French of I.etonier and Van l.oo, by Hnrry H. Smith, who has come to be recognized as the leadlnsr awt. man in this branch of stage mechanics. Tho story which has been worked into the opera has the advantage of being humorous in itelf although not wholly new. The music by Ludwlg Engl.indeV Is charming. Some of the melodies have alt the langurous sweetness of Jncob ewckl at his best, and some of tho choruses and marches ring as spiritedly as a charge of cavalry. To class It as a comic oper-i hardly does Justice to "Half u King,'' for thero Is ambltous effort pliown In every part to get very near the legitimate In the musical line, and these attempts seldom fail to achieve distinct results. Mr. Wll f.oii Is well fitted to this latest con celt for the part of a mountebank masquerading as one of tho nobility, gives him opportunities that serve his ends admirably. tiieene uml Ills Company. Next Monday night Joseph Greene's company of players will begin their week's engagement at the Academy, presenting eight puns of deep inter est, and with u cast ot characters that uro the equal of any who have been hero. Tho opening attraction Is "The Silver King," which is produced by special arrangement with Kugene Tompkins "f the Hoston Theater. Tho fact that Edward K. Hoss has the di rection of Mr. Greene's tour Is In Itself a guarantee that nothing but llrfet cluss ettrni'tlons will bo presented. MRS.

Burgundcr, one of thelessees of tho Lyceum sends the following to The Tribune concerning Francis Wil son nnd his company who will present "Half a King" at the Lyceum tonight. "Mr. Wilson Is now at tho zenith of his powers nntl has a wonderful clover and mirth-provoking tale in 'Half a King,' w hlch he will present at tho Ly ceum Friday night. You can tell tho Tribune's army of readers that this will bo the nest theatrical attraction ottered to Scranton this season Mr. Wilson has a company of sixty people, many of whom are the best on the comic opera stage.

Villi Start About the Middle of Mar with One Hundred Hands. By the middle of May, men of Scran ton will be able to wear suits made from cloth of our own -manufacture.

The mill will occupy one hundred hands at first und the company hopes that Its business will grow to such an cxtont that this number will bo quad rupled before many years. Tho olileers of the compuny are: P. Mulherln, president; T. F. Jordan, vice president; J. P. Law, secretary; M. C. Judge, treasurer; George B. Jermyn, P. P. Jordan, II. Renard. J. M. Rhodes and M. P.
