PARK THEATRE.
FITZ AND WEBSTER'S COMPANY, NOV.
24th.
A company of exceedingly clever per- •
formers will appear in the production of
"A Breezy Time" at the Park Theatre J
on Friday evening Novenber 24th. The j
piece is a farce comedy, but it is said j
that it is a little more connected than j
are most pieces of its kind. It is put to- i
gether simply for the purpose of giving j
the comedians an opportunity to exhibit
themselves in the various specialty per
formances. The piece is seperated into
three acts, and these acts are full of ac
tion rather than dialogue. New scenery
and costumes have been made for "A
Breezy Time" this season. The first
scene is laid at a young student's apart
ments in Boston. The second act shifts
to Vermont. It may not be necessary
to say there is a young girl who is in
love with a young student, aid that the
young st'ident reciprocates the love.
His creditors stand in the way of his j
marriage, and "A Breezy Time" is like ,
other pieces in this at least, but all ends
happily in the last act. The play is
brimful of melodious music, and a great
many scenes have been introduced that
have no particular connection with the
play itself, but that are sufficiently
amusing to excuse the fact that they re
tard the action.
The Pittsburg' Orchestra.
The fourth set of concerts of the
Pittsburg Orchestra in Carnegie Music
Hall, Schenley Park, on Friday even
ing, November 24 and Saturday
afternoon, November -sth, will in
troilnce the great Russian violinist,
Petschnikoft", who made his first appear
ance in this country in New York on
Saturday evening last, and achieved
such a success as few European artists
have ever had. Mr. Petschnikoff will
play the great concerto by Tschaikowsky,
never before heard in this part of the
country. The orchestra concerts in
Pittsburg this season were never so pop
ular. It is considered that Mr. Herbert
has an orchestra second to none in the
country.
Opera House Pittsburg
Thanksgiving week at the Grand
Opera House will be marked by the
presentation of Nat Goodwin's greatest
comedy success, "A Gilded Fool.' In
this play, that did more to make Nat
Goodwin famous than anything he has
produced in years, the stock company
should appear to excellent advantage.
In facr, all things considered, "A Gild
ed Fool" should prove the best success
of the year, and admirers of the stock
company should not miss this promis
ing Thanksgiving attraction at the
Grand.
Avenue Theatre, Pittsburg.
The Avenue Theatre, will be open
Thanksgiving week, commencing next
Monday with performances both after
noon and evening. For this occasion
the management has securred what
must be regarded as the very best
vaudeville bill that has eyer been
brought together upon the stage.
Among the noted artists of Europe and
America who will appear are the Rus
sel Brothers. John and James, whose
uproarous sketch entitled "The Irish
Servant Girls" is as well known through
out the U. S. as any of the dramatic of
ferings of note. In the list also are Geo
H. Wood, the popular entertainer, who
is known as ' The Somewhat Different
Comedian"; the Althea Twin Sisters,
famous singers and dancers; Maud Am
ber, the beautiful and gifted song
stress; the Four Hills, a troupe of noted
singers and dancers; the Fansons, in a
delightful comedy sketch, which they
call the "Reminders of Happy School
Day Times"; Howe & Scott, the best of
all Hebrew comedians, and John Harty,
a comedy juggler.

they ran for help.

People don't buy pianos for looks alone.
If they did any one of the pretty piano cases
offered for sale, with the tin-pan attachment
inside,would do very well and not cost much.
A few month's use serves to show the dif
ference between a good and a bad piano, be
tween a piano carefully made of excellent
material and a piano made of pine or any
cheap stuff, slapped together anyhow.
The Chase Brothers is as good a piano as
was ever made. You may see it any time
you will come in. Seeing's Free." They are
firmly warranted in every respect. \ou
runjno risk. Should a piano prove defective
you art* welcome to come and select another
of the same styles and wo will exchange it
with you free of charge at any time.
Every thing in the music line cash or
credit.
Terms to suit you convenience.
We can save you SIOO.OO and upwards in the
