THE THEATRE.

VOL. V. No. I. WEEK ENDING DECEMBER 29, 1888.

[blocks in formation]

The price of yearly subscription to THE THEATRE is four dollars in advance. The editor solicits contributions from the readers of THE THEATRE, and suggests that old play-bills, and scraps relating to the stage, notes, news and items appertaining to the different arts, would be acceptable. It is the desire of the editor to establish a widely-circulated magazine, and to further that end every good idea will be acted upon so far as possible. Care is always taken not to needlessly destroy valuable manuscript. All articles that appear in THE THEATRE are written especially for it unless credited otherwise.

Generally speaking THE THEATRE is an original magazine, but the appearance of any article bearing credit to some other publication is because such an article is thought to be interesting and especially valuable for preservation. There are two volumes of THE THEATRE every year, and these are not only handsomely bound, but are excellent reference books for the library shelf.

If we follow Mr. Louis Aldrich's magnificent superfluities we must now bid good-bye to these entertaining English people forever. But let us trust that Mr. Aldrich's plans will be thwarted and that Mr. Duff will continue to deal out more plums-become a regular plumDuff, as it were.

I UNDERSTAND from the best authority that Miss Sadie Martinot has had a splendid offer from Mr. J. C. Duff to sing in "The Queen's Mate" when it is brought out at the Standard theatre. As Miss Lillian Russell has retired from the cast

Conner was born at nine o'clock, on the ninth day of the ninth month of the ninth year of the nineteenth century. He was the original Mantilini in "Nicholas. Nickleby" and Angelo in "Tortesa," and was the second person to act Bloody Nathan
