Leicester Square. LOBdOBI, W, C. ■ , Nov. 10. Anyone feeling at all depressed tali week must have been driver. Into a positively sui- cidal frame of mind by the weather. Drizzle, overhead tog, chilliness, and worst of all, clammy mud everywhere—under foot and over overcoat and collar—made together a wretched, combination of discomfort, damp and dreariness. Passing hansoms scattered their needle baths of liquid filth on the juat and tbu unjust alike, and It would have needed nothing short of an earthquake to more the average msn from his fireside. The amusement places. In a way, suffered from the weather opposition. Bernard Show, when o^ked to describe his aew piny, "The Doctor's Dilemma," now In rehearsal for. production at the Court on Nor. 20, answered: 'It Is a tragedy; It Is, In my opinion, what a modern tragedy should be. Of the fourteen characters In ino ploy, six are doctors, and they are each to represent a quit* distinct type of London Sractitloner as conceived, or seen, by Mr. haw. It Is not difficult to understand why tnofte privileged few who have read his manu- script say that the first three acts are very funny. The tragedy has a wholly London environment. It Is In four acts and epi- logue, and In the first three Is seen toe coming tragedy that occurs during the fourth act. Mm. Langtry haa instructed her solicitors to sell by auction, at Tokenhouse Yard, on Nor. 22, the remainder of her lease of eight year* of the Imperial, with Immediate pos- session, arrangements having been made with Irewls Waller to terminate bis tenancy. A few years ago the.imperial was built for Mrs. Lang try, by Frank Verity, regardless, of ex- pense. It Is acknowledged to be one of the most beautiful playhouses in London, and the terms under which Mrs. Langtry* holds It are such as to make it one of the cheapest of theatrical properties la the West End of London. ■ _ . King l.ilwflrd has honored Lewis Waller with a command for a state jwrfonuance of ••Itobln Hood," ot Windsor Castle, on Nov. 16, on the occasion of the visit of the King nnd Queen of Norway. It Is sure to be a notable performance.. Charles Wyndham and Mary Moore will make their reappearance- ia this city, at the New, Nov, 22, on which day they will give n Rneclal matinee of "David Garrlelc" - In nil likelihood thin will be Charles Wyndham nnil ilnry Moore's ouly appearance In Lon- don thlti Benson. . . Olga Ncthersole achieved a double suc- cess on Krlday of Inst week, nt the Thentre Hoyal, Bradford, when she appeared In the title part of her own version of "Adrlenne I^couvreur." The play held the attention of tho audience from start to finish, and Ml.-ts Nethersolc nnn> s deep Impression by the power nnd pnthos of her acting. •"The Llttlo Stranger," which failed to please American, audiences, has Just arrived from the shores of the States. This week the baby Imporsonator, Edwnrd Garrett, and bis supporters are to be found at the thea- tre in Camden, where they are going tre- mendously strong. To-day week Maurice Farkoa, of the Ed- wordes forces, I-javes for New York, where he v,lll originate a part in a new musical comedy.' His stay there Is fixed for twenty weeks, I nm told, after which be returns to London for Mr, Edwardea' production of "Die Liistlce WKwp," a light comedy, that Is said to have pleased the king Immensely when he sow It at Marleubad a couple of months ago. Ellnbeth Pnrklun, who Is at present In the State*, has been encaged by OHto Stuart in iirlurlpal fairy for hit* Christmas revival la "A Midsummer Nfghi'a Drenm," at the Adel- phl, where It ..will occupy the evening bill. The dne hundredth jicrformancc of "Arua- iris" was celebrated ntthe New Inst night, by presenting -a specially prepared copy of the vocal score to ovcry member of the audlencv. The tuneful muslcttl show has caught on la f'reat shape, and will be an attraction at Hist louae -for some' time. At the end of next year Adeline (ience. the famous dancer of the Umpire, will bring her long eogaeement nt thnt house to a close, uod go to Araerlca. Mlsa Genee was ilrat engaged for "Monto Crlsto" at the Em- pire, on a six weeks', contract, and remained to become one of-the greatest personalities and favorites of the London stage. Speaking of her forthcoming visit to America, Miss Genee said that the exact form of the enter- tainment in winch she will make her debut In New York has not been settled, but she would like to take across the Atlantic with her tooth ■'iCoppella" and "The Milliner Duchess," together with a London corps do ballet. "When I return to London, and I hope to the Empire, I trust my friends will be as pleased to see me again as I shall be sorry to leave them next year," was Miss Gence's summing up of a break that will cause regret. Charles urban secured an .exclusive cine- matographic record:of the contest for the recent heavy weight championship of Eng- land, In which Gunner Molr, of. the Boyol Marine Artillery, defeated Jack Talmcr, of Newcastle, at the National Sporting Club, and the picture was shown at the Alaamijra on Monday last. Involving, as the under- taking did, the installation of a complete system of lighting, and the expenditure of almost endless quantities of film, to secure all the interesting accessories of action, the results exceed the most sanguine expecta- tions. ... Ada Reeve has signed a contract to go to America, and will Ichvc these shores early in January, to fulfil an:eight weeks' engage- ment. The salary quoted Is £400 a week, nnd Harry Day Is aald to have been Instru- mental In'bringing thcdeal oil*. Lydia Ycamaas Titus and Frederick J- Titu* returned to England early in the month, after a most successful tour through Australia and New Zealand. They have lw»th greatly benefitted by their trip, and are in the best nf health. I'M] and Nettle Peters made their London debut at the Hammersmith Palace last Mon- dav. and achieved a most pronounced success. There is nothing conventional about their net. and they kept the audience In a genuine uproar during the twenty minutes or more that they occupied the stage with most original talk. Mr. Peters' comedy work with n trombone, and his eccentric legmaiila stunt)*, are very funny. , Tho Sisters Miwarlc arc once more In town, after « lone visit to America, where for fourteen mouths tli^y have met with un- interrupted success. t>n Nan 10 they open jit the Hippodrome, Lancaster, after which Ihey will go on the Moss & Btoll tour. «.

His sufferings were untold and con- stant, misery; in fact, there was nothing we would not have done to have given him relief. We finally procured a full set of the Cuticura Remedies, and in about three or four clays he began to show a brighter spirit and, really laughed, for the first time in a-year. In about ninety days he was fully recovered. Praise for the Cuticura Remedies has always been our greatest pleasure, and there is nothing too good that we could say in their favor, for they certainly saved our baby's life, for he was the most awful sight that I ever beheld prior to the treatment of the Cuticura Remedies.
