ing and chattering all through the reticu-
lated evolutions of the dance.
To embody the Tioelue Temptations
within a single word, it is but necessary
to say that it is a veritable microcosm, a
world in miniature, a confederation ofwon-
drous circumstances, wondrous things and
wondrous doings. The costumes are
paragons of masniicence. and the scenic
and mechanical contrivances something
that must command the admiration OF all
beholders.
Mr.. Chas. Il. Yale, the author of the
interesting story and its ingenious dram
atization, is the director of the perform
ance, and Judging from the gentleman's
loug experience and familiarity with such
matters, he will shortly bring the
Tioelpe Temptations to a perfection sur
passed by no spectacular production occu-
pying attention in this age and day.

Ii Is said hat the main reason for the
movement to change the uniform of the
men in the first class at West Point. &C
cording to the New York Sun, is that
they damage their systems with the pres
ent gray Jackets. These jackets are cut
almost To a corset tightness in the first
place, and since they don't wear out as
last as the cadets grow they naturally get
tighter and tighter each few months. The
women haye taught the boys to be very
proud of the slim waists hat distinguish
the corps, so that each fellow holds on to
his jacket as long as he can. 1t is said
that one day when a cadet iell into the
water his commanding officer ordered him
TO take of his Jacket and wiring it. The
youth did so, aud displayed beneath it
nothing but Sn undershirt with cuffs and
collar pinned to it. An investigation fol
lowed and showed bat whereas most OF
the bigger boys had been obliged to dis
card their shirts, thee were even some
who had to cut away the lower halves OF
their undershirts in order to button their
jackets around their waists. This will not
surprise soldiers. In every country there
are swell regiments that achieve good
looks more or less in the same way.

A very large and enthusiastic audience
was present at Boyd's opera house last
evening to witness the initial production
of Gilmore's Tioelre Temptations here.
1t can be said that the performance was a
brilliant success. The stage settings were
marvels in their way, while the scenic Ell
fects and mechanical execution was at
once pronounced aod incredulous.
There are also no less than a triumvi-
rates of ballots, whose wondrous evolu-
tons, ~pirouettes and torturous gyrations,
whose dazzling habiliments and striking
tableaux cannot fail in producing the
most notable and extraordinary effect.
The piece. too, is replete with the most
thrilling dimaxcs, aud the spectator is
kept in a constant fever to know what
wonder comes next. The ballet of cocka-
toos was one of the most charming feat

evoked tremendous applause. To the de-
