Mr. Champlin has sifrrounded him self with a stronger east than ever, and the latest New York dramatic and comedy offerings, each play being mounted and staged correctly with a lavish display of scenery and electrical effects, on a par with any of the higher class plays given at $1.50 and $2 prices. And, let us remind you, gentle f reader, that all the plays presented by his company are given at popular prices. ' Many of the skeptical ones say, "How can they do it for the money?'' That question is easily answered. Mr. Champlin and his company of associate players play to the masses.

Emma Carus is so strikingly different from any woman we have ever seen here that it took almost the first part of her act for the audience to become j familiar with her style. But when she advanced this far Miss Carus won them I rock-solid. She has a eare-free, origi i nal and pleasing personality that puts her quite in a class bv hersolf. Her expressions are the wittiest ever, her songs new and catohy, and her danc ing, well for a young womag of her avordupois, it is simply marvelous.
