Talk atiout bard times I Why, there are unnumbered fortunes waiting for somebody In the show business. We know It: because only last week we read seven distinct announcements to the effoct that "a live man with a small capital can secure an Intertset In tbe best paying exhibi- tion on the road." Thecurlous thing about those notices Is that the capital required is Invariably small, and the man must always be "live"—thus Indicating that anylwdy may avail himself ot tbe golden opportunities unless be happens to be dead, They've got a double-headed pig In Boston —not In a bottle ot alcohol, or anything of that sort: but a real, live, grunting nig. The tn'o heads are dlstlntrt and perfect, ai>a It Is reason- able to suppose that each has a brain as laixs as tbAt given to tbe aversfce Bontonlan—Uiat la, to the average Bostonlan pig. Now, It they would educate this doable-header,what a card be would make I And what advantages he would enjoy over the ordinary pig! tvhen one bead became tired ot searching for the nino-epot, the other could take up the work: and In this way one snout would alw»ys bo ready to cat. The Boston pig might, with his pair ot heads, be able to un- derstand Joseph Cook, and possibly to find his way at>oat the streets ot the Hub unaided. Oh, a double-headed pig Is a great thing—let us sing: BOSTON'S BLKSIXG. Two heads with bat a single spine. Two snoots that eat as one— Let Boston cease hencefonb Its whine While .swine like thb do run! -.-Beally, death la reaping a rich harvest ot late.

A bnTlesftoe In six scenes, by Edward Hanlgan, of a well-known play now being pettMmed in this dty, waa pro- duced In the Theatre Comlque March IS. The principal scenes and Inddenta ot the original have l>een cleverly ttaveatled, and, although tbe dialogue Is. at tinaee. slangy and too verboee, yet It apparently pleased ttaoM In attendance, and frequent laughter waa heartl. Many of the char- aciera closely copied the elegant costumes worn In the drama, and the treahly-palnted scenery waa appropriate and effective. In the second scene the newly reorganized Miniature tiSth Begl- ment presented a line appearance, being clad In toll grenadier's uniform, and they did some com- mendable marchlDg. They also sang the chorus of the song "Our Irish Orenadlers" In a pleis- Inic manner. In the fourth scene, a quintet by prisoners, entitled "The Isle of Blackwell." some ot the chief characten aiding In the chorus, scored a success. We think that U the dialogue should be liberally condensed the general elfect would be Improved. Edward Bar- rlgan waa quite succeestui In the role ot John Balnhard. delivering his lines with mock-heroic air, and treqaeotly gltliig excellent imitstlonB ot the peculianiles ot the original Imperson- ator ot the character. Tony Hart, who haa gained quite a reputation for tbe excellencv ot his female Impersonations, certainly enhanced It by his clever acting ot Adrl-anna Balnhard. His por- trayal ot the child In short clothee In the early part ot the burlesqne was comical, and thecbaoge to the grown-up adopted daughter ot tbe Duchess was marked by Individuality. John Wild made a capital and characteristic Sergeant O'Boorke. Billy Gray Invested tbe Count de Ovctshoes with mock dignity. J. F. Crossen made leather, "tbe hard case." fearfully melodramatic. Miss Aimie Mack's death struggles as Madelalne provoked much laughter. Miss Mary Oorenflo made a pretty and attractive Valentine, and the other characters received dlllgentattentlon. Prior to the burleeque a variety ollowasglvenby pertormeta whose eioel- lence in their various specialties Is eo well known to our readers that simple mention ot tbem la all that Is needed at the present irrlUng. John Wild, aided by Johnny Sbay, J. F. Croesen and M. Brad- ley, opened the festivities In "Wo Can't Agree:" Will H. Morton vocalized: Billy Noonan and Alice Bateman gave a ststue-clog; QuUier and Ooldrlch performed Bonge-snd-dances: Bobert Xlckle gave feats ot legerdemain: Ida Morris warbled serio- comic songs; Avery and Lerue displayed their gymnastic skill on the horizontal bar: SItty O'Xell danced ]lgs: Fields and Hoeygave their musical specialties; and Harry Bennett, although susering from hoarseness, sang Irish character songs, more than couhrmlng the good opinion we have hitherto expressed ot him- Business tor tbe week very large, people being tuned away on several nights. An extra matinee March 18 (St. Patrlck'a Day celebration) proved successful. To>~T PAaroB'a Tbateleco CosiBis.moN is to appear some time during the season at the Grand Ojieta-honse. THE abbttalb at Tony Pastor's Theatre March 18 were Ida De Cort. Harry Eennedy. Harris and CartvU, Adrlenno Oray, BUly Bany, Delehaoty and Hengler, Little Bosobud, the Freeman Sisters and Scanlon and Cronln, Ida De Cort, who some time ago appeared In thisclty as the piima-donna of a Juvenile opera troupe, met with good success In her vocalizations. Harry Kennedy repeated his clever ventrlloqulal dialogues with bis manikins, his witticisms and singing meeting with especial favor. Harris and Carroll repeated their well- known act entitled "Home at Last," and later gave camp-meeting songs with much zest. Ballads were sung In a dashing maimer by Adrienne Oray. Billy Barry acted tho chief characters In tho sketches of "A Practical Joke" and "Stratagem." Dolc- bonty and Hengler met with the accustom- ed favor In "Tbe Blval Dandy Darkles," lu which they gave their freshest nong, "Strawber- ries and Cream." Little Rosebud among her songs gave a fresh one called "I'm Little, But You Bet I Can Dance," exemplifying tho title ot the song in a nimble and graceful manner. The Freeman Sisters In a musical sketch Introduced banlo-solos and a ballad called "OurOmndfather's Clock." Scanlon and C^nln were seen in their sketch ot "Life In a Tenement-house." Besides these, Frank Bush gave character songs and Imi- tations and acted the chief character In the open- ing sketch of "Solomon's Troubles;" the Rich- mond Blsteie continued their songs-and-dancce; and Tony Pastor treebened his repertory ot songs with "The Two Jeremiahs," which caused much laughter. Business good. To THE chabitable,— Senorita Slarcla, a dancer who came to tbo country a tew years ago under engagement to the Elralty Brothers, then manag- ing NIblo's Oardon, has been Incapacitated by paralysis from pursuing her profession tor some time past. She Is suffering for the common neces- saries of life, being in extreme destitution, and ot late has been tierelt ot her reason. Whether her insanity will yield to medical treatment Is uncer- tain, says a physician who kindly visited hrr, owing to her present physical condition.

Large crowds ot people conKregated along this route, many ot whom were disappointed In see- ing the display. The procession wss advertised to pass trom Fifth avenue through Fony-second street to Eighth avenue; but owing to the ele- vated railroad on Sixth avenue not being suffi- ciently high to admit ot the passage under It of some ot the chariots, the procession was com- pelled to go to Fltty-thlrd street before a passage- way across the dty could be found- Similar dlf- flcnltlee must have been met doim town, as the show was advertised to retam by the way of the Bowery and Third avenue :butsbnrtly after eleven o'clock It turned Into Twenty-third street from Broadway, and at once retunied to Gllmore's Gar- den through Fourth avenue, although announced to go tar l>eyond that point. The dlsi>lay was very creditable, there being two ttands of music In large, ornamental con: a numtier of men clod In armor, mounted upon caparisoned Bleeds: tumer- ons rlchly-palnted vans, upon tbe tope of which were banners and men In the attire of birds, beasts and nondeecrlpts, a den ot performing hyenas, with their trainer to keep them in sub- jection; large, ornamental chariots; an Irish Jaunting-car, drawn by ponies. In which aat Pat- terson, the Irlah clown: and fire elephants, each with a keeper mounted. There were numerous calcium lights flxed to the tope ot many ot tbe vans, so that their rayn Illumined the streets, and at Intervals colored fires and Boman-candles were burned In profusion.

MAGGIE MrrcHELii, after several years' absence, made her reappearance npon the metropolItBO stage In the Standard Theatre March 18, when J. B. Bunnlon's tour-act drama ot "Mignon" was acted, with tbo following cast: Mbmnn Mi^sle Mitchell Ilelorich W. Walker Wilhelm Melster.Wm. Harris CH.irnr W. G. Re,mlFr SperatI Ruswil Bassett Frain J. B. Mason Ldh.*nes GutftaTus Lerlek Johnnn A- Mamis (Jlp Harry llotto First Gipsy B. Ruiiscll Romanic P. A. Andeiron Second Glp7 II. Weston Fn'derlc Bufhs Scott Plilllna IdaJcHke.rs Baron Medina H Fuller Zaifi Ulss Marie Prescon nambrlnus E B. Holmes Tho drama was beautifully motuted with treeh- ly-palnted scenery, and a numl>er ot ptofeasloiial cboma-slngers had beer, engaged to give due effect to the gipsies'song In the third act. Special praise Is due for the thoroughly effective manner m which the Illusory fire-scene In that act was managed. Miss Mitchell has lost none ot her vivacity and mercuriality ot spirit, and heracttng is as piquant as ever; but this drama does not aSOnl her so much scope as others In her reper- tory to display those quallUee which have nkade her name celebrated throughout the liuid; and possibly, for this reason, theattendance.although good, was not so large as had t>een anticipated. Nevertheless, the drama Is a good one. and It at- fonls the fair artist opportunity to display her ability In pathetic acting, and In other dtles where she has been in the habit ot fulfilling one en- gagement at least every season It haa prov- en eminently eucceeatul, and given agreeable variety to her performances. That Miss Mitch- ell possesses artistic ability to delineate those passions which cause the heart to thrt>t>wlth Increased velocity, and the eyes to become sut- fuacd with tears. Is undeniable; but the mark- ed favor vclth which her acting In the comedy scenes ot the drama was received simply proves that the popular taste, in this city at least, now craves for mirth and laughter. Instead ot tears, and In otwdlence to that lieheet "Fanchon," which Is indlssolubly cotmeeted with Miss Mitchell's Came and name. Is to be given during tbe present week. The supporting company Is one ot more than ordinary excellence, and the members were admirably fitted to the various roles assigned them. In "Mignon," William Harris, who has ac- companied the star through the country for several seasons |>ast, acted Wilhelm Melsier with marked effect. His dlstlngnlshins traits axe a good figure, an excellent voice, gentlemanly ease bearing and gracDtul action. Buasell Barrett was quite suc- ceoslul In simulating senile age aa the old pilgrim, who proves to be the Count SperatI and Mlgn- on's father. Gustavus Levick deserves warm praise for his capital portrayal ot Laertes, his acting being vigorous and thoroughly natural. Harry Jlotto as GIp, who contlnuee a faithful triend to MIgnoo, although she tells him she can never reciprocate his love for her, was quaint and' humorous- P. A. Anderson invested the gipsy king Bomanie with strong Individuality of char- acter, and made his preeence felt.

HELENA MODJESSA'B Impersonation ot Adrlenia Lecouvreur tn Library Hall, Pittsburg, Pa. March 18, did not attract the large assemblais that was anticipated, and, with the exception ot Fmma Wllmot, who sustained the part ot Prls- cess De Boullllon very creditably, the support wis scarcely sattotactory. Modjeska was serenailtd sfter tbe performance by the Elghteenth-recl- ment Band, at the Seventh-avenuo Hotel. "Ailrl- onne" was reproduced 19 to a larger attendance, and tor the matinee 20 "East Lynne" wat pre- sented, with Emma Wllmot as Lady Isabel aid Madame Vine, nnd Frank Weston as Sir Francis Levlson. "Camllle" waa given night 20 to a (air- ly large audience, and Modjeska's Interpretation Impreesed the spectatora to a degree rarely witnessed. Mr. Burroughs was a passably good Armand, and Frank Weston a competent Qaa- tnn. Nearly all the other characters In the piece were Indifferently sustained. "I^amille" was acted the rest ot the week, except the mati- nee 23, when "Adrienne" waa repeated. Aversge business moderate- Milton Noblee 25 Bartley Campbell's new play ot "Clio" was pro- duced in tbe Opera-house 18, and was well re- ceived. Taken all In all. the author may jDMly feel proud ot the production, viewed trom either a literary or a dramatic standpoint. .111 nt the parts were acireptably acted by Roea Rand, .!»- eephlne Cary, Eate Byner, Amy Gordon, J. W. Blalsdell, T. F. Egbert, H. Forsberg. Pope Cwt, W. F. Owen, and H. C. Strong. Incidental to tho piece were dances, quartets, choruses, classical groupings, and new mechanical effects, all ot which deserve praise. Tho scenery waa freshly painted by Arthur Palmer.

AT THE OPEBA-HOURE, St. LoUto, MO., bUSlnCSS has been good, the attraction being "Uncle Tom's Cabin," played by a company under tho manage- ment ot Harry Cordova.

AT THB New fabk thzatbb, Brooklyn, last week, opera-bouffe reaped through Gates a rich harvest. Proverbial prudery does not appear to prevent our Brooklyn frienda trom patronizing the short-sklned burlesque—for opera-bouffe turned Into English must remain forever a tvpe of burlesque. Col. Sinn found hto patrons more numerous than hto seats at every perform- ance. "Olrofle-Olrofla" was given .March 18. "La Jolle Partumeuse" 19, "The Princess of Treblzonde" 20, "La Fllle de Madame Angot" 21, "La Ferictaole" 22, "Bartw Bleue" 23, with "Glrofie-Glrofia" and "La Perichole" at the mati- nees.

WoOD'B THEATBE, Brooklyn, was enlivened Inst week by the Count Joaiues, supporied In part by 3Ilss Avonto Falrtianks, and In part by the mate- rialized enthusiasm of tho spectators. Mr. 7 . that to, the Count, presented hto accustomed round of charactera with the accustomed demon- strative results. The opening night was marked by so great an excitement that It waa found neces sory to lead off two ot tho agitators to the police station.

The play was well mounted and tbo supfiort good. The two Xitats found able exiwnents In George S. Edeson as the Judge and James Cooper as the Major. James M.
