TRIUMPH ox STAGE OF RUSSIAN REALISM. \ Princess Bariatinsky Makes Her : London Debut and Captivates The Auntlence, London, Dec. 27 Princess Bariat- insky, under her stage name of Lydia Yavorskaya, has captivated London, and such realism that she depicts has seldom been seen upon the stage. There was & pleasant little in- stance of international courtesy, as well as a glimpse, of a remarkable Russian tragedy, at his Majesty's Theatre, when Prince Bariatinsky favored the house with a preliminary explanation, in English, of the new part which his charming wife was just going to play in some scenes from lvaft the Tertible," by Alex- ander Ostrovsky.

D, Baker's dramatization of McCut- cheon's novel is readily enough guess- ed at when one stops to consider the absolute lack of melodramatic feat- ures, and the presence of so much clean, wholesome dialogue and inter- esting stage pictures. The delightful love stories running. throughout the play are bright and entertaining, and of as mach interest to the male as the female sex. A company unequalled in strength and ability is employed tn} the rendering of the different cha-§ racters, and a feature of the enter tainment is the magnificent scenic investment in use, with old world cos- tuming to fit the pefiod and locale, "Going Some." "Going Some," the farce comedy by Paul Armstrong and Rex Beach, which has been tne greatest laugh winner of the present theatrical &pe- son, will be seen here for the first time on Thursday, December 30th, at the Grand. Under the direction of the Shubert's, "Going Some' ran seven months at the New York Bel- abco Theatre, and since going on the road has been acclaimed the best laughing play written in years, A novel plot, an excellent company hedded by the well-known comedian Walter Jones, and clean, wholesome fun make "Going Some' a play that up to its title. The story of "Going Some' concerns a number: of | college boys and girls who are on a western ranch spending their vaca- tion. The cowboys of the ranch are sulky because they have just' lost their prize possession, a photograph, to a rival outfit through a footrace Flying Fishes. A dazzling silvery splendor per- vades the surface of the body of the best known species of the flying fish. The summit of its head, its back and its sides are of azure blue. This blue becomes spotted upon the dorsal fin, the pectoral fin and the tail. This ush is the common prey of the sea birds and the more voraclous fishes, such as the shark. Its enemies abound in air and water. If, it succeeds in sscaping the Charybdis of the water the chancgs are in favor of its meet- ng its fate in the Scylla of the atmos- vhere. If it escapes the jaws of the shark it will probably fall to thc thare of the seagull. Gilbert offers 4 108 har box df best Laundry Soap, for $3.90.
