We have not space TO indulge In de.
tailed criticism OF this well selected pro-
gramme. Suffice it to say, IL was per-
formed with a degree OF discrimination
and skill that argues for all the particip

In dramatic business. The receipts, we
are glad 10 know, will be something
above expenses, aud the poor Will again
benefit by Mrs. Ellis's Industry and
goodness.
