'Our Irish Visitors" Saturday Night
Very Good Specialties.
Thomas K. Murray and his com
pany presented the time-worn farce
comedy, "Our Irish Visitors," to a
ery fair audience at the Waterman
Saturday night. The attendance
would have been much larger but
for the fact that the weather was bo
.abominably bad during the day.
Murray has evidently endeavored
to reduce his expenses to the mini
mum, for hia company, outside of
hitiiHelf and Katie Kooney, is very
-weak. Frank Davis, the "Jerry
McCiuiniieHH" of the play, suffered
much in comparison with the work
jf his predecessor, Mark Murphy
Will Petrie did several very capable
specialty turns and received wdl
inerited upplause. Ilattie Delaro
Barnes sang a solo which. was well
received, by the audience, and for
an encore gave "Com in' Thro'
the Rye." Thomas E. Murray sus
tained the reputation he has justly
earned as an Irish character actor
iind was received with the old-time
enthusiasm that had signified the
appearance of the famous team of
Murray & Murphy. Katie Kooney
jjave a very laughable and life-like
imitation of her father, Pat Kooney,
and also gave wime of her superb
-Glancing. The entire company suf
fered from comparison with Ander
son's comedians, the "Two Old
Cronies." The music sounded very
thin and stale after having heard
the full orchestra perform. Any of
the musicians are lirst-class artists
in their line, but piano, violin and
cornet can hardly fill the vacuum
made by the removal of the full
orchestra.
Ou Thursday evening our people
will be treated to one of the best
comedies on the road in Charles A.
rider's "Oh! What a Night." The
bouse should be packed through
- out.
-Oh! What a Night."
It gives ine pleasure to present to
the anuioenient public of Platls
itiouth the best comedy entertain
ment of the season on next Thurs
day night, Marcli 31, when Charles
A. Loder, the German dialect come--diau,
supported by a metropolitan
company of artists, will for the first
time .in our city present the great
farce-comedy success, "Oh! What a
Night." The play is tilled with new
-and sparkling witticisms, songs
dances and delightful and catchy
music The company has made a
great hit in the east with this play
and wherever it has been produced
it has been declared a tremendous
success, filling theatres to
overflowing. It is a comedy with a
plot, full of unadulterated fun. So
don't lail to go and see "Oh! What
a Night." for its very funny, awfully
funny, and cannot fail to please
everybody, especially the wonder
ful dancing by the famous English
twins, the "Sisters Leigh," in the
"Delu-sion and Mirror" dances,
which -alone is worth the price of
.admission. Secure your tickets
early .at the usual place. Price, 73
-enta. Yours truly,

Am Officer's Tragic Death.
A lieutenant of the Twenty-fourth
regiment of Chasseurs, named Taverne,
met with a most tragic death near the
port of Nice yesterday. His horse, a
big, fiery roan, which had been very
little ridden, became restive shortly after
leaving headquarters. While p.a;siiig
the well known Chateau Smith the horse
took fright and bolted down an incline.
Some octroi . officers saw this, but were
unable to arrest his progress. The offi
cer managed to 6teer the animal around
the Nice port, but coming to a rapid curve
in the road at a spot known as Rabau
Capen he lost all control. The horse
rushed madly at a wall, cleared it, and
both horse and rider were dashed over
the rocks into the sea below.
The admiral of the Mediterranean
squadron sent a steam launch, four boats
and fifty men with grapnels to try and
find the bodies. They found a key on
the rocks, which has been identified as
that of the officer's chamber in the bar
racks, and some hair of the horse stuck
to the rocks. Up to the present, how
ever, the bodies have not been recovered.
They have probably been taken out to
sea by currents. M. De Freycinet, who
is now in Nice, visited the spot to make
inquiries. The unfortunate officer, who
was only thirty years of age, was most
popular. Pall Mall Gazette.
An Elepliaut's Toothache.
"The elephant in the Zoological gardens
in Paris must be a very reasonable crea
ture. He suffers from toothache, and if
in proportion to his size, he must suffer
a good deal: yet, while it is being stopped
and filled, we are told, he is exceedingly
patient, only "gently moving his trunk"
when the operation is particularly pain
ful. A word of praise is also surely due
to the dentist. A man might have
earned the Victoria Cross and yet have
some misgivings when that trunk began
to wave. In the case in question it was
only employed "to caress the operator,"
by way of fee, when the proceedings
were concluded; but it might have been
put to a different use.
The report does not inform us whether
the elephant is placed in a chair with
his head well back, a position with
which most of us are only too well ac
quainted. There is a little difficulty, it
seems, in inducing him to take laughing
gas, which he may think beneath his
dignity. James Payn in Illustrated
London News.
