Raleigh's theatre-goers will have the choice of a varied selection of plays next week. At the Academy of Music "A Night at the Circus" will hold sway. The fact that this play has had the endorsement of a run at the New York Park theatre may be safely taken as a guarantee that in selecting "A Night at the Circus" for the amusement of his patrons manager Meares has made no mistake. The play is a farce-comedy, but it is a de cided advance on the ordinary run of that class of plays. Nellie McHenry, a favorite with the theatre-going pub lic, and once the bright particular stafof Salsbury's Troubadours, is in the cast, too, and just as full of her old time vivacity and rollickinghumor as ever, In a role that gives her every opportunity for the display of her re markable versatility.
