Francis Wilson has long been iee ognlred as one of the bright, luminous stars In the light opera flimnment, nnd he Is always pure of a full nnd at tentive hearing from theater-goers. Even If hie vehicle happens to bo a little shaky It "goes" if there Is plenty of Wilson in It. There Is naturnllv p'.enty of Wilson In "Cyrano dc Bergerac. ' in which he appeared nt the Lvceum last nlght.and the only thing the audience regretted was that there wasn't more of Wilson. There were not many bright moments when Wilson wns off the stage unless the charming I ulu O'n-er came on to help the moitlment along Cyrano do nergcrci 1 not the kind of character around which a modl comic opera can be conrtructed Hnrry B. Smith did some good work on tho book nnd Victor HerbU's music gives no Indication that ho Is wilting him self to dnth. hut one ran't ecipe th conclusion that the whole thing la rather flat. Wilson realizes this and he worked like a Trojan last night to overcome the handi cap nivd wns rewarded bv real, hon est nnd heart v arpl-iuse The Cvtano he Is now giving the public Is evidently not the Individual carved out by the comic opera constructors. Wilson is at present Introducing to theatra-goers a burlesque on Itostrand's henv. 'TIs a dignified, unaggressive burlesque, let It be said. There was nothing left for Wilson to do but burlesque. Only In that way could he induce any laughs to exude from Cyrnno. Miss Glnser's Itoxane was a trifle more broadly burlesqued than Mr. Wil son's Cyrano, but It was delightful and Introduced that talented young woman to a Scianton audience In a new light. Her ability as a comedienne has not heretofore been appi eclated here. The leading woman or a light opera com edian is ordinarily now expected to do much In the way of affecting the risi bilities of the audience, but Miss Glnser has Ignored thnt fact. She easily divided tho honois with Wilson last night. Theie were n number of good voices In the compnny and Mr Smith's lyrlc.i weie veiy pleasantly lendeied. Two of Victor Hei belt's waltz numbers won Instant favor with the audience. The music, taken in its entirety, is delight ful, and Mr. Wilson has staged tho opera In a stilklngly magnificent man ner. It does not follow the lines of tho original poem very closely. Jtox nne does not marry Christian, Instead giving her hand to the chlvalious Cy inno. Academy of Music. "In tho Foithllls" wna pioduced at the Acndetnv of MuU last night, by the Lester Wnlter company. This nftprnoon the bill will bo "The Fatal Wedding" and tonight, "In the Great North " At the Caietv. At the Gaiety this afternoon the Trench Folly company will begin a three days engagement. In the olio, which is a feature of tho performance, there aie eight big vaudeville acts. O'Neill as a Swordsman. It almost goes without saying that as 4D'Attagnan In Llebler and Com pany's goigeous production of "The Musketeers," which Is to bo the Chilst mas attraction at the Lyceum, Jnnies O'Neill has another opportunity to dis play his superb swordsmanship. The public rcmembeis, of course, the ease with which he, as the Count of Monto Crlsto, used to dispatch Danglars, tho banker, to his deserved death. During several seasons It was necessary to change the actors who were first en gaged for that part, ns they refused to play It after a few months had passed, claiming that they did not en gage to have two or three fingers cut off In the duel scene for the pilvllege of playing opposite to Mi. O'Neill. In his younger days Mr. O'Neill crossed swotds with all the noted tic tots of the peilod In whose companies he herved. Edwin Forrest, Dairy Sul livan, Edwin Booth, Lawu-nco Bar rett all matched theli fencing skill against his. On one occasion the 11 lustilous Booth caught him off his guard and promptly knocked nut one of his leading man's front teeth. As D'Aitngnnn was known among tho musketeers of King Louis as the best swoidsman ot his time, so James O'Neill enjoys the reputation of being one of the cleverest men with tho foil In the vvoild today. Mr. O'Neill will be seen at the Lyceum Chilstmas nf. teinoon and evening. Holiday Attraction. The Elroy Stock company will com mence a week's engagement at the Academy of Music Monday, Dec. 25, presenting for Xmas matinee Edwin Milton Royles' charming comedy, 'Ti lends," and, on ChrlMmas night, the grand scenic- production ."Land of the Midnight Sun ' Tuesday nigh the lomantlc drama, "Northern Lights," will be offered, In which J. Frank Buike will bo seen at his best as John Swltfwlnd, the Indian graduate of Yale and assistant surgeon at the post. Mr Burko has mnde this character a special study, having spent thiee months on the Crow reservation In the Llttlo Big Ilorn Valley, where the ac tion of the play takes place. The repertolie for the balance of the week will be "The Secret Enemy," "A Sprln Chicken," "Why Jones Left Home," "Cotton Spinner."
