Edelweiss. Miss Mattie Vickers will appear in her new Comedy-Romance entitled Edelweiss at the Opera House in Butler this, Friday, evening. Of her the Chicago Times says. Vivacious Mattie Vickers entertained an audience at the Grand last night that filled every chair and the balcony stairs. The bill was Miss Vickers' new domestic drama, "Edelweiss,'" and the approval of the audi er.co was made manifest on numerous occa sions. The greater part of the play is laid amid the mountains of Switzerland, and Miss Vickers takes tbe part of a peasant girl, who rescues and nurses back to life handsome Jack Duttou, whose life is at tempted by his partner and supposed friend, Emile Schwartz. The rich brogue and many amusing incidents give her am ple opportunity to display the vivacity which bubbles so incessantly from her sunny nature. And of course there is singing aud dancing there always is when Mattie Vickers is about. Get your reserved seats at Heinemans' Book Store. The Last Lecture. Miss Olof Krarer, the little Esquimaux lady, will deliver her lecture on "Green land or life in the frozen North" in the Opera House next Wednesday evening. Ol her Rev. Paddock of Philadelphia says. Miss Olof Krarer's lecture in tho Chapel of St. Andrew's Church, on the evening of January Ifi, was a success in every way. In an hour's time she gave her audianco a better idea of the peculiar life, customs, and belief of the Esquimaux than can be gained by days of reading. Her fluency and correctness of speech for a native Greenlander was surprising, while her dim inutive size, pleasant manners, concise, yet clear descriptions, with an occasional (lash of humor, render her narratiro as interest ing as it was instructive.
