Theater CrowdedPerformance This Week is Superior to Preceding1ACH evening- this week there has been a large audience in !the park theater'which gives '— J evidence of a good perfor- imance. The general opinion is that •;this series of acts is the best thus far. The opening overture by Prof. Maurer is “Zampa.” The professor is becoming a favorite with music lovers and all endeavor to be at the theater early in order not to miss the overture.Zuida is a charming young woman whose voice fairly mesmerizes her audience. Two of her songs are her own composition. Carlin and Penn present an original comedy, “ Getting a Divorce. ” They are simply a riot. Laugh ! after laugh is recorded to their credit. ' Their jokes are not stale nor is their i talk dislocated. Their singing is espe- £ cially good their voices being far supe- lt;rior in clearness, and volume to the r average comedian. Jimmie Cowper, 3 the odd, black face comedian, has trav- ] eled with many of the famous minstrel i shows. He knows a few jokes which 1 he tells while the audience goes into i convulsions. His attempted joke on the # Garden of Edeh borders too closely on 1 the sacriligious to take well but his others “ took. ” He is not like every 1 black face comedian and does original i stunts. lt;Wolffheim's bronze statues are a real lt;treat to lovers of art. u The wonder is j how living, human beings can maintain ( a position of such absolute fixedness. f These must be seen to be appreciated. J They received merited applause. Tho lt;these were here last year they were lt;welcomed with even more enthusiasm. ' Cotter and Boulden is one of Heller's 1 pet acts which has been used in many ] of the largest theaters in America, ft i has always met with success. Mr. Cot- lt;ter is a clever pianist and composer also : a great dancer. Miss Ada Boulden is a 1 beautiful little woman of talent. She 1 sings to her own accompaniment on the ] banjo. Her child impersonation dis- i plays'rare ability. The act was liber- i ally applauded. .(
