The latest conception in the amusement

quota OF musical solos and choruses, to-

most critical admirer OF spectacular dis

with the members Of the local press, been
favored with private view OF the entire
Transformation, and, therefore, feels war
ranted to predict an enthusiastic recep'
lion for this portion OF the "Grand In.
