Yale's spectacle called The Evil Eye. This sensation will be upturned upon the stage of the Columbia Theatre for the two weeks beginning next Monday night, May 7th. Among. the score of great features are the famous Phaseys, an English troupe of ballet specialists, Rosaire and Elliott, Al. H. Wilson, Fannie Bloodgood, Madelene Lowrie, Edward Caron, P. C. Armstrong and thirty others. THE ALCAZAR The Alcazar people have veered for a time from its jocular trend in playdom and are mixing a palatable concoction of melodrama with their previous bright record of humorous plays. The Great Diamond Robbery, A. M. Palmer's successful piece, will be next week's offering, and a careful attention of details and settings will mark the presentation. The piece with its many environments of corrupt New York under Tammany rule reveals a long and strikingly interesting chain of episodes in rapid succession. The Great Diamond Robbery is a play which should draw well, for it is the best of its kind. Sweet Lavendar follows. THE GRAND In Gay New York is packing the Grand Opera House. It certainly presents a joyful entertainment and has introduced to the public several comic songs that are sure to have a long lease of popular favor. Chris Bruno and beautiful Mabel Russell have again captured the town with a new and dainty cake-walk, and the charming vocalization of Isabelle Underwood and George C. Lyding is among the chief attractions of the en. tertainment. Louise Royce makes a great hit as Sally Brown, as also does Douglas Flint as Grand Central Pete. A second edition of In Gay New York will be presented on Monday evening. The management have in preparation an elaborate production of the musical comedy, The Lady Slavey, which for two years was the rage of London and New York. In it several new and famous people will appear. THE TIVOLI Next Monday evening, the Tivoli will enter on the fourth week of The Wizard of the Nile, which, since its production, has broken the record made by The Idol's Eye. The slightest analysis of The Wizard of the Nile, shows that it is far superior to The Idol's Eye. In the present attraction at the Tivoli, every member of the company has an opportunity, while the chorus and orchestra are called upon for far more than the average amount of work. The Tivoli has never shown prettier stage pictures than those in The Wizard of the Nile, and the gorgeousness of the costumes and scenery, fills the eye with delight. On Monday evening, all the officers and men of the French cruiser, Protet, now in port, will visit the Tivoli, as the guests of George P. Hall, the Turkish Consul, and many numbers will be introduced in The Wizard, for the special benefit of the visiting naval men. THE ORPHEUM The Orpheum has for next week another famous bill. The stars of the Fulgora Company will make a change in their specialties and Etta Butler will give some new imitations. The newcomers are all bright lights in the vaudeville firmament. Milton and Dollie Nobles require no introduction to San Francisco. The actor author and his wife are always welcome. They will present one of Milton Noble's latest comedietta's A Blue Grass Widow. Mark Sullivan is a monologist and mimic and a very pleasing entertainer. The return of the biograph will be welcomed by thousands. The pictures will be entirely new and probably the most interesting collection ever exhibited in San Francisco. The holdovers are: Little Fred ; Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Sidman, who will present Back Home, a sequence to the piece they are playing this week; Buoman and Adelle; Brothers Forrest and Etta Butler. Matinees Wednesday, Saturday and Sunday. FISCHER'S This handsome and unequalled home of music each week presents a great deal of very attractive music of a very high order. It is quite the fad to goto Fischer's after the theatre, and join the crowd of music lovers. Frequent changes of program are made and condensed versions of the best operas given. Fritz Scheel, the symphony leader, who has been in very poor health since his absence in the East, will soon return to San Francisco, and then we shall have a symphony leader.
