more than deserving of the term pretty"
Miss Murphy was particularly charming
as 'Boccsccio," and Miss Barton, as
"LsOnetta,n filed the rOls splendidly.
Messrs. Bigelow and Wolfe, the comedians,
kept the audience laughing pretty con-
stantly, and Mr.. Armaud's 'Pietro, WAS in
keeping with tie remainder Of the cast
