music and fun strung together to make con-
nected story. The chief interest centers in Adol.

not met with the recognition he thinks them en-
titled to, the part being bly, taken by Nh. John A.
Mackay. Miss Kate Castleton, MS Sophia BeiSi-e,
took the lead in the musical part of the perform
ance, and In her vocal selections displayed a
good voice and considerable training. She mas
all the grace and dash of Catherine Lewis. and, in
addition to n charming voice, is endowed with
captivating fnce and handsome form. In the
duet with Anthony Beisise, and tho closing chorus
10 the second act, her graceful dancing evoked a
spontaneous and prolonged recall. Among the
other notable features of the play was the German
dialect payt,. Rnous, of Richard Gormon. aud
