audience was delighted with the per-

Tomorrow night we are to have the

''Pat's New Wardrobe" comedy
Astounding in mirth and music, of which
the Boston Herald says:
pats New Wardrobe" is the name of
the new three act comedy in which Mr..
Pat Rooney and his company appeared
last evening, before an audince which
crowded the house in every part. 1t
was the first presentation of the piece in
this city, but 1t will not be the last by a
good many times, judging from the man-
ner of its reception The audience be.
gan to laugh almost directly upon the
rising of the curtain, and continued to
do so until its fall, with cessation only
when specially business was introduced.
and not always then. Pats Wardrobe
was undoubtedly written for the sole
purpose of keeping an audience in a
state of merriment.
