Description Notice: the haste manifested by many in the audience to leave the theater immediately preceding the termination of the performance, renders the conclusion perfectly inaudible to others desirous of hearing and understanding it, and Mrs. John Wood feels confident that her wish that all will retain their seats till the fall of the curtain, will meet with due consideration. Fourth and last week of the new comedy adapted expressly for the Olympic by Augustin Daly and Frank Wood, authors of "Leah the Forsaken", received nightly with shouts of laughter. Opinions of the press from the New York Herald, Leader, Daily Times, The World, The Albion, Express, Atlas and Daily News. The orchestra will play music arranged by and under the direction of Thomas Baker. Opera glasses on hire in the lobby. Prices of admission: dress circle and parquet, 50 cents; balcony chairs, 75 cents; family circle, 25 cents; orchestra chairs, $1.00; private boxes, $5.00, $6.00 and $7.00 each.
