ZiOST IN NEW YORK.

The Toledo Blade says of Lost in New York which comes to the Naylor Opera House next Tuesday evening. "In spite of the fact that it is Holy Week the Peoples' theater was crowded to the doors last evening, the attraction being the five-aot comedy drama, 'Lost in New York.' To tell the story of 'Lost In New York' would be a lengthy task. It Is a story with a deep-laid plot which develops In the first act, has an addition built on to it in the seoond, Is frustrated in the third, then partially rebuilt iu

"tt"Y

the fourth and finally dies a natural death in the last aot. The scene of the third aot is East river by moonlight, and is an exact representation of that portion of New York, In the foreground is Ward's Island Insane Asylum, showing nearly the entire water front on one side and the view of the city on the opposite side. In the middle is a river of real water on which an ordinary small steam launch plys back and forth, filling the theater, with the sound of its puffing and the shriek of the whistle. The scene of the fourth aot is Gramercy Park, and is moat realistic." The company produoing the play contains excellent material, and will be seen here at popular price, 25o, 50c, and 75o. No extra charge for reserved seats.

TWENTIETH CENTURY QIRIif

The 20th Century Girl," that product ,of modern times, the girl bachelor," brought forth by woman's dependence upon her own exertions for maintenance and also in part through a desire for personal independence in the matter of carrying her own latch key, has at times taken on an exggearated form—either as to the woman in bloomers or the political candidate. However it is beooming the accepted idea that while woman may for •convenience,comfort and perhaps health, don masculine attire, she will for social oooasions as surely teturn to the graceful and becoming feminine Bkirt for sooial functions. That women can wear masculine attire with ease and graoe oannot begainsaid when witnessing the production of that popular lyrloal novelty, "The 20th Century Girl, which will be at the Opera House next Thursday evening, February 27th and when we will witness Miss Molly Fuller In the title role (just as easy and graoeful as the New Woman as any woman in silken skirts). William

Cameron, who is well-known as a comedian of high merit, outs rather a droll figure, however as the "boy

spinster," and again one is forced to admit of woman's adaptability even in matters of attire. Manager Hallen has one of the largest and strongest companies now out, as witness the names of suoh artists as John T. Kelly, Gus Williams, JAlleen Crater, Georgia Hawley, Arthur Fell, Harry Kelly, Thomas Lewis, Annie St.Tel, the "danoing sunbeam," Aimee Van Dyne, and a ohorus of selected voices. Sale of seats will begin next Tuestlay morning at Bnntin's. No advance In prices."

KELIiAR, THE GREAT HAOIOIAN. Saturday night, at the Opera House, theatre goers will have an opportunity of seeing Kellar and his oompany of oriental wonders, in a grand spectaoular and mechanical maglo entertainment, surpassing anything In the way of prestidigitation ever seen in this city. All the wonders of two continents have been blended in this marvellous entertainment, and will be seen here upon precisely the same scale of grandeur as characterized Kellar'* performances at Daly's theater, New York, where he delighted and astonished New York's society theater goers for six weeks. Kellar Is bevond dispute the originator of spectacnlar maglo In this country, and has never resorted to imitations like all other would-be magielans. His performance is not only amusing, but highly instructive, and the audlenoe is held in continuous wonderment during the entire performanoe. His reputation as the king of magiolans has been honestly acquired, and the vast sums of money he has expended to perfect the most astounding illusions ever given in this country would fully equip all the other so-oalled magical entertainments. Kellar returns to us this season, heralded by the most prononno»d plaudits of the press throughout the country, f-
