tleman and is doing good work for

modating and reliable gentleman.

the Hennessys, in their songs and
dances and grotesque antics were
funny, indeed; Morris and Semons
in their musical comedy, Charles H.
Flake in his harmonica and guitar
solos and the singing by Messrs.
West, Adams, Emery Hennessy and
Flake was excellent. A clarionet
solo by Charles B. Hunt was one of
the main features of the evening.
Hennessy and Adams, as end men,
made much sport, as most of their
jokes are new, hence there was not a
sound from the "chestnut-bell." The
troupe has fine orchestra and alto
gether, gave general satisfaction.
