“The attractions at Wood’s Museum continue unabated. “The Man at the Wheel” has steered the good ship of fortune into a prosperous haven. It is needless to state a grand success has attended the joint efforts of Miss Lydia Thompson and her charming company, for most people are by this time aware of the fact. The wonders of the Museum, too, form added interesting features, not the least being the gallant little Commodore Foote, Miss Nestelle, and others. The manager announces that “Ixion” (“The Man at the Wheel”) will shortly be withdrawn to be substituted by “The Field of the Cloth of Gold.”
“Wood has no occasion to stop the wheel of ‘Ixion,’ which turns him in some forty six thousand dollars a month.”
“Ixion, renewed by the introduction of allusions to the most recent local and national events, remains the feature at Wood’s Museum.”
