entertainments last evening. Owing to
the improvements that have been made

should be well patronized. Mr.. Lorraine
is versatile performer and possesses
talent of u high order. Mr.. jenkins is
a splendid dancer and does his end rs
well as We have seen it done in San

do so well in their particular parts dis
tinctions should be invidious. Go and
see for yourselves.
