Saturday "An Ac cidental Courtship" and Hiber nian Sociable Monday Night. . The first theatrical attraction this week will be Hoyt's merry musical comedy, "A Stranger in New York," which will be played at the Opera House Wednesday night. It is the latest work of Mr. Charles Hoyt and. although scarcely six months old, is already a favorite in theatrical circles. Theiplay is written very "much after the manner of "A Trip to Chinatown" and presents the adventures of a man who goes to New York for the pur pose of seeing the city. Miss Alice Holbrook plays the part of "HattiV' that of a charming girl companion who plans all the adventures, sings a song when need be and goes to the French ball. Mr. Jno. Gilbert, the well known comedian, is also a mem-, ber of the company. The Charleston News and Courier of the 5th inst, says of the company's engagement in that city: . i. ; "A Stranger in New York" was pre sented -before two i audiences at the Academy of Music yesterday, "and there was no mistaking the welcome given. The Stranger paid Charleston a visit last season, and many were familiar with his adventures in the great metropolis, but the story will bear repeating. Beginning at the re ception room of the Hoffman House the evening ends at the Madison Square Garden, while the annual French, ball is in progress. The fun begins with the arrival of the Stranger, and never ceases until the curtain is down for the last time. The men and women who conspire to give the Stranger a warm time suc ceed beyond even their highest ambi tions, and only because he is a thor oughbred does he come through alive. There, is never a minute's rest for the Stranger, but he meets every wave bow on, and has the time of his life at a reasonable cost. ! . . On Saturday night the French Opera Company now closing a very success- ul season in New Orleans, will enter tain at the Opera House, presenting trio rtnmtla iao 'PaMoian T.ifa " They will also give a matinee at which they will play "Madam Aguot."' The company is highly endorsed and .' is being played by a clever company of artists. , . 1 ' :- "" " To-morrow night in Hibernian Hall the annual sociable, by the Hibernian Society, will be given. The commit tee having the matter in charge is arranging to even out-do all previous records in the matter of providing amusements and delicious refresh ments for the patrons. The great suc cess which has attended previous events of the kind, under Hibernian auspices, affords abundant assurance that the sociable will be a delighf ul success. Music and dancing, will be among the features of entertainment. "An Accidental Courtship" is the title of an entertainment ta be given in Abbie Chadbourn Memorial Hall to-morrow (Monday) evening. It will be on the eve of St. Valentines Day, and the sale of valentine's, both comic and fancy: will be a feature of the evening. A committee of young ladies will serve refreshments and a pro gramme of music, recitations, etc., has been arranged. Among them will be' a recitation by Miss Worth and a solo by Mrs. W. L. Latta. The event is to benefit the Sunday- School library fund . : .; . .' The Current Events Department of the North Carolina Sorosi's will meet in regular session on Friday after noon. The tonic to be discussed is "Inventions" and the reading of pa pers-treating of inventions of the day by talented members of the Department, will be features of the meeting. A rare treat is in store for tl Wil mington music-loviDg public on next Saturday night, the 18th inst, when the Louise Brehany Ballad and Opera Concert Company I will entertain under the auspices of the Y. M. C. A. in the Association's auditorium. The company is headed by Miss Louise M. Brehany, a favorite prima donna, supported by a superb coterie of well known artists. : v The proeramme they will render consists of choice - ballads and' scenes from operas, concluding with an act from the grand opera "Martha," beau tifully costumed, with all scenery and paraphernalia. j General Secretary 'v Caldwell was fortunate enough to secure the engage ment of this company by reason of the fact that the company finds that they will have to be here Saturday and Sunday whether they entertain or not, and they therefore give the associa tion a special and very advantageous contract They are of the regular $175 guarantee standard. This will not be a Star Course fea ture. Members of the Y. M. C. A. will be admitted for 50 cents, and the gen eral public for 75 cents, j The following is the personnel of the company: Louise M.
