They propose to irrigate the addition for
two years free Of charge, and after that for

who arrived half hour after the curtain
went up were unable to find seats, but they
were entirely willing to stand up until after
II o'clock. The Stowaway is an old fash
Toned melodrama with few new features.
The cast was made up of villains, lovers,
wronged parents and the usual number OF
comedians, but all were fairly good actors
and succeeded in maintaining the necessary
action. Tho safe blowing scene in which
two real. live cracksmen appea,

two burglars. who are the heroes of the

Mrs, Kendals arm when she Is on

muscular Her skin has a creamy tint
and the elbow is irreproachsble.
Carmencita could not have become

more graceful, as they lie heavily on

formance than during their music

Lii Lehman has extremely hand

her orange colored wig and the yards

them half a chance her arms are splen-
