five thousand people, satisfying all,
and yet not being entirely consum-
ed.”

The International
Last night gave the usual strong
bill, It is not necessary to go into
detail; suffice itto say it was fully up
tothe standard, both the olio and
the musical farce being without a
dull moment. Alice Raymond, Mal-
vern Bros., Keesing and Ralston,
Billy Young, Mattie Webb, Hobbs
and Turner, Blanche Lewis, etc.,
make upa strong olio, while Cas-
sidy & Zian’s burlesque, ‘‘Atlantic

City,” abonded with melodious
musical gems, well rendered. The
ballets this week, arranged by

Peri & Cassidy and danced by those
clever artists, the Peri Sisters, Cas-
sidy and Pearl and others are ex-
ceptionally intricate and attractive.

Same bill all week, with tonight
the wrestling match between Mc-
Millan and Cannon, the finish of
which was postponed from last
Friday, owing to the lateness of the
hour, and which will be decided to-
night. The men will ‘be on the
Mat at 10 p. m.
