thing new in that line, and it "'An Irish
Gentleman" is halt as bright as it is said

One of the noteworthy new attrac
tions thiss?ason may bo considered "At
Gay Coney Island," in which Mathews
and Bulg?r last year inaugurated their
starring career. The play deals with
the fortunes of a young lady who mar
ries a supposedly far-gone invalid that
loose. To reproduce one-tenth of the
features of the great play-ground and
adapt them for stage uses an author
should achieve a great triumph indeed.
Nevertheless. Mathews and Bulger
claim to represent-with fidelity many cf
the chief features of the place, and
withal to render them logical and con:
sistent. A large company is engaged in
the production and an elabrrate scenii
equipment is employed. AttheFuoke

she may become a widow and fulfill a
provision of her father's will. Mathews
and Bulger have gained an enviable
reputation as eong writers and parodists,
and have been seen to advantage in sev
eral h:gh class fare? omedies. "At Gay
Coney Island" of course has its locale at
New York's famous sa-side retreat.
Here are to be found hundreds of thou
sands of people each summer on pleas
ure bent. NoboJy would think of going
to Coney leland for rest. It is a bedlam
of noises, produced by the voices of
"barkers'" for catch-penny enterprises
of every description; by squeaking brass
bands and creaking orchestrions: by
rattling wheels of roller coasters and
cracking shots from a hundred shooting
galleries. In short, Coney Island is
beat describe! as pandemonium let
tractions o i the road for an early date.

clever company present.ng that great
est of all dramatic comedies. "Daisy,
the Mifsouri Girl. But the play, which
is a new one, has bceu pronounced by
every one who has had the pleasure of
peeing it, to be tin finest piece of p'ay
writing that has been turnel out in
years. The story is told naturally and
with great force, while the comedy
which predominates is of a character
seldom seen and does not in any way
cooMict with the story. The characters
are ail strong types and are portrayed
by a clever lot of artist;. The pro
duction is given on a grand scale, and
neither time nor expense has been
spared in staging the play. The scenery,

"A man often says: "My business is!
oifferent from any other kind; it's almost
impossible to advertise my business."' That
remark shows a mwmoVrrtnding of what
advertising is. It is making a business known
to those who ought to know h. This can
be donewith any business.
