The 'Vardc-James combInation closed Its engagement at the Boyd last night. The theater was comfortably Oiled to see "Richard Ill" played , with Frederick Warlle In the leadIng - lag part. Mr. Warde had a much better opportunity - . . portunity lo demonstrate his powers as all "V ' actor In the character of the ambitious duke / of Gloater afterward the tyrannical Richard III , king ot England , than In tile character of PrInce hat In "Henry IV. " Mr. James as earl of IUchmond did nol appear before I tile audlenco liS often as was desired , but ho was enthusIastically _ received al each all- pearance. Mr. Llnsle , as duke oC Duclelng. ham , played the part4 acceptably. and Miss Chapman , , as Lady Anne.was above the aver- - age. Last nlghl's perCormanco closl'11 a , Suc- cesstul engagement for the company. , No recent transsctloD In the amusement line has excited more genuine Interest than the deal between the Buffalo Dill Wild Wesl show and J. A. Bailey and so many con- . / IIIctlng versions ot the Intent purpose and business relations as they really exist lJe- - tween Colonel Cody , Nalo SalslJnry and Mr. Ilaliey have been \ circulated . and all are so far form the real facts In the case . Il seenis e like a vlllualJlo bit \ ot no\\'s to give a true Vr , , solution of the transaction In the disC place no Ilartnership relations have been tormell. alHI by the text of their compact nothIng that can be construed Into II partnershlll Is InOni- Honed , but Il may be stated on authority that a Purely busIness arrangemenl has been - - I11Bll' . whereby the exporlencl' , energ anll _ J - , _ ability of all these gentlemen are united In the cOl11mon cause ot making \ the Buffalo Shill show the only and most hl1portant organization - C'anlzallon ot the kind In existence . and to ai- taln this end the happy IIlIance was brought IIlJoul When Il was deemed expedient to tour the country with their great outtit Meurs. Cody and SalslJury naturally sought the most 1)lall8lblo ) and experIenced 'ay In which to do se , anti negotiated with Mr. Bailey 10 furnish the equlpmenl and organized . ganlzed force to Ilractlcally handle the ! great .v enterprise and make the lIall " daily movements an . absolute cerlalnly. After mature clellbera- , tlon' a I'lan ; was devised whereby Messrs. Cody and Salsbury mlht ! retain all rights , JUllno. tame ami dignity or the Wild West and Congress of Hough HIders ot the World , and present their famous exhibition under I' theIr Personal direction and at the same . tlmo avail themselves ot the well known l11anagerlcal ability and generalship of Mr. Bailey , who brings to them a complete out- nt In the wuy ot railway cars . canvas , wagons. stock and all the essenllalll necessary to transporl. erect remove and conduct the ' outside affairs of the magnltlcenl enterlahl- ' meat which will bo presentell on an enor- moos scai . and an enllrl'ly new method as - , to seating and general arrangement of the canvas , which Is designed In the form of a htlIoW' square with an open center , totally unlike ! a circus tent : and. as a maUl'r , ot , tact , there will be nothing In the whole ex. hlbltlon al all suggestive of the circus per. _ , , ' _ v ' * formance It being the ( wise lolicy of all con. cerned 10 make the . .WildVest Peculiar to Itselt. It has been Intimated that the I"ore- vaugh show . of whlcll Mr. Bailey Is the sole owner , would cut a Prominent figure In the WIld West exhibition This Mr. Bailey cm- ! phatlcall denies . and says that the name ot , l 'orellAusb will not be mentioned lu any war , and . that Buffalo Dill , with his congress ot 'c. iders . . Is quite enough to satisfy the joust ex acting public , and nothing could be added thereto ! ! . that would In any way Increase the 4 lJ drawing powers. Il will take about forty double length railway cars to move the or- gnnlzatlon , which will embrace over 1,000 men and horses. Salvlnl begins his annual engagement al Doyd's theater tomorrow night , and the re- gard Iti which bo Is held by local theater- goers makes the occasion of more than ordi- nary moment. During his present stay Mr Salvlnl will .be seen In hIs latest and most radical departure that ot light comedy. He Is said lo have In the new romantic comedy "Tho Student at Salmanca , " a very welcome addition to his repertoire Il Is said to be replete with tutmultuous rollicking and exuberant - uberant mirth and that the character of the student allows Mr. Salvlnl full scope for his powers. The play has a well do- fined plot which may be followed with ease . which with Its erlous interest notwithstanding - standIng Its broad blusterIng fun , Is said to remove It an Infinite distance from the world of farce SalvInl will appear tomorrow night as the royatering dissipated yet , honorable adventurer "Don Caesar de Dazan , " whose follies hurl tow but hlm- self who needed but the civilizing influence ot a good woman to make his vIrtues become apparent. Il was In this play that Salvlnl made his fIrst success as a slar. The new comedy , "Tho Student of Salamanca " will bo the bill on Tuesday night and he will Close his limited enage- ! meat on Wednesday evening In the role of D'Artagnan the hero at the "Three Guards- men " a character , which In these days be- longs to him as unIquely as does "lUp Van Winkle" to Joseph ' Jefferson. The supporting - ing I cal. which ! has nol materIally changed slllce saIVlnl's : : lasl visit , Inclulil's William Redmund ' John A.

'I'he Derby Winner" Is front the pen ot Alfred H. Spink editor of the Sporl- tag News oC St. I.ouis and manager ! of the SoutIlslde Electrlo Light Haco Track , the. only one In the world. The play Is not only strong In plot but It Is II revelation In Its splendid scenic trliinnls which ore Rn lrii " to nature. The company is - composed ( I" of artists who have long since made their reputation upon the stag3. While Il Is un- usuaiiy large the demands ot the play re- quire exceptional numerIcal strength , to interpret - lerprel Its varied characters : besllies the array ot talent In the cast , In the great racll1g scene In the play are introduced seven famous thoroughbreds , headed by Old I ree. land , "Ihe greatest race horse In all the land. " The other flyers are Anawan , Ianlhe. I.a Clgale , Miss Price AII.a.Dlazo and Hemedy. The opening scene of the play re- veals a beautiful and 1Irl'-lIke represenla- halt or General Grant's old log cabin IIhow- log the river Des I'eres the stream that General Grant swain to save Julia Dent , and whom he afterwards marrIed , and 10 the right on Iho background Is seen the little church where General Grant married Julia Dent.

Then comes the celebrated race scene IntroducIng alt the great thoroughbreds which the com- IIAny carrlu.

Fully fifty people are engaged In the cast , and the play Is wlth- out exception one of the moat attractive and elaborate productions seen this Yl'ar "Yon Yonson" comes to Doyd's this ( Sun- day ) evenIng with Gus Heege In the title role.This SwedIsh dialect play enjoys the distinction ot being the only play of Its kind that has been unqualifIedly endorsed by the public. Il has to Its credit four seasons of great prosperity and It has been praised wherever Il has been seen for Us originality quaintness and humcr. Il contains all the elements of a popular play , while presenting an accurate representation of - life In the lumber'reglons of the northwest as well as a character as distinct and original a crcltlon : as Jelrenmn's HIp or the elder Emmel's Fritz , with both ot .whlch , Il has been favor- ably compared. The story , while Interesting and amusing , and full of bright comedy Is secondary In Importance to Mr. II'ego's remarkably - I marlcnbly faithful and finished portrayal of : the Swede.
