JIM, TltK PENMAN.
Palmer's Madison Square Co., presented
this dolightful attract I on nt Funko's on Mon
day and Tuesday evenings In n inannor that
could not fall to phase oven tho author him
relf. Tho company isoxcptlonnllr good nnd
Is headed by nono less than Mr. F. U. Hangs,
to whom Is allotted a rolo In which Ills every
energy Is allowed full scopo and It must
1)0 said ho surely does full justice to his jwrt,
tho leading rolo, "Jim, the Viinuin." His
every action holds tho audleuco sielllK)und
and that ho Is thoroughly master of his linos,
Is shown by tho generous npplauso ho recolves
from tho enraptured nudlence. Miss Hrook
yn, his chief support, In tho character of
Mrs. Jlitlston, Is nlso deserving of special
mention, her untiring efforts to please, meet
ing with tho approbation of .nil. Miss Llpp
man na Agnes, tho daughter, Mr. Otlomoyer,
ns Huron Hurtfelil, and Mr. Kirkland, as
tho detectlv Ctipt. Jleilwooil, are all far bet
tor than Is soon, as a rule, with companies of
this kind. In fact It would bo unkind to at
tempt to criticise any member of tho com
pany. TIIKIVYI.KAr.
This still popular molo-drnma was produc
ed at tho Fuuko Wednesday ovouing. tit Is
nu Irish play with thu conventional light
hearted hearted hero, tho lover, thu villain,
tho villain's accomplice, the mIIco and other
well known iicrsoiingos, but it tells nu inter
esting story, and has siccial interesting
scenes and features. Tho stealing of o child
by an englo and its i-oscuo from tho nest
by tho hero, tho climbing of n tower by an
ivy vine, nro among its most thrilling inci
dents, whllo nu Irish pIor mid several clover
dancers enliven the piny. Tho scenery was
specially attractive and tho play met with
favor at tho hands of tho audience.

A small houso greeted tho Dalys on their
return to tho 0ern houso Saturday evening.
Tho company which contains somo really
good artists in their lino, resort) to too much
"horuo play" to please n cultured audleuco
such as greeted thorn hero. They enter to
tho gallery to such nu extent that they will
continue to draw in that section of tho houso
but should endeavor to add more of nu air of
rcllnemeut to their comedy to please- tho peo
plo who patronize tho lower Iloor of an opera
houso.
THE l'MVATK HKCIIKTAUY.
A good sized nudiduco greeted tho old fa
vorite at tho Fuuko last night. Tho picco
coutnlns somo comical situations and at times
is really qulto interesting, but again there nro
places whero tho interest lags. Tho company
contains some good actors and had they bet
ter material to work with would undoubtedly
prove very interesting. Tho piece needs
ro-writingnud brightening up when it would
continue to pleaso its it hus of yore. However,
they seemed to to pleaso tho bulk of tho au
dience who frequently responded with loud
applauso.
ONE OK THE OLD STOCK.
Ono of Lincoln's visitors who never falls to
receive n cordial greeting by a full houso is
Mr. Chas. L. Davis, more popularly known
as"Alvln Joslyn," who appears with his ex
cellent company at Funko's tonight in u new
play, tho first ho has appeared in for ten
yenrs.hnving for that length of time previous
to this season, alwas appeared in his great
success, "Alvin Joslyn." The scenes of tho
now play, "Ono of Tho Old Stock," aro beau
tifully laid, and staged in magulflceuho with
tho finest accessories that money can buy and
Mr. Davis claims tho cash outlay before tho
llrst performance of thy now play was $50,
000. All furniture used Is Ms property, ho
carries his own orchestra and prides himself
on having even a better company this season
tuun ever.
As in Mr. Davis's former piny, tbo plot
deals with tho now Knglaud farmer and a
continuation of tho humorous situations
shown in "Alvin Joslyn" but better detailed,
and will furnish inoro amusement for tho
theutro goers tonight. Tho character of
"Undo Alvin Joslyn" is again at tho head of
tho cast, and runs through a second of Mr.
Davis's successes.
Tho engagement is for but ono nlcht onlv
and you should not fail to lo there.
