Chatter of the Social
Thousand.
Every seat on the parquette floor was
sold and long string of carriages out
side proclaimed the success of ''Goldeu
Hair in the Land of the Fairies" at the
Metropolitan yesterday afternoon. Ar
tiStically, too, the affair was success, ,and
even if one irrepressIble little pink Love
did kick his heels just before the cur
tain went down on sleeping scene, the
tableauX were well sustained and un-
usually we'll arranged. There was not
break in the whole performance, al
though owing to the great number of
children on the stage, the waits between
acts were rather tedious. There is re-
ally nothing in the world more hope
leSsly unmanageable than crowd of
excited children, and the ladies in
charge deserve credit for their general
ship. Those who assisted behind the
scenes were Mrs. Deacon. Mrs. Tarbox,
Mrs. Booth, Mrs. Dan Moore, Mrs. f. e.
Foster, Mrs. j. Snapp and Miss Faulk-
ner.
