Chicago Opera House Block. £. £. MEREDITH JOHN J. O'CONNOR i Representatives. When answering advertisements kindly mention Variety MAJESTIC (Lymau B. Glover, mgr.; agent, Or- pheum Circuit.)—MeGrath ami Paige open with banjo selections; The Boylan Trio follow with an uninteresting farce comedy; Dore and Wolford sang and whistled; Eva Taylor and Co., appeared In an act called "Dreamona."

"Little Hip" is about the
