    “There are regular matinee performances at this      house on Wednesday, Mr. Chanfrau appears at that of to-day.  This is the last week of that comedian’s engagement, which has exceeded 130 nights.  Mr. Chanfrau takes his only benefit on Friday, when his friends will rally round him in full force.  Frank Drew follows Mr. Chanfrau, and will in turn be succeeded by Miss Lucille Western.”
