One paper Rays : In all the Windows may be seen lithographg of "Peek-a-Boo" ScaDlan, who is advertised to appear this evening in his great play, "The Irish Minstrel." The play is from the pen of the well-known dramatist, Mr. Fred Marsden, author of "Kerry Gow," "Shaun Rhue," "Mussette" and many other well-known dramas. In the charaoter of Larry O'Lynn the dramatist has happily fitted Mr. Scanlan with a part suited to his abilities. As the light-hearted and merry minstrel lad, Scanlan succeeds in keeping his audiences in happy laughing mood from the rise to the fall of the curtain. The play is without red coat or priest in the development of its plot The story is simple and ful] of dramatic worth. And the comedy; while positive enough to make the most sober auditor laugh, never descends to that buffoonery which too often degrades the actors art.
