commanded respect and success, are Messrs.
Hallen and Hart. They are the most
popular comedians on the American
stage today, and their comedy, Later On" is
the best OF the clean and the purely legitimate
pieces OF its kind. There are more new songs
in Later ON than any comedy on the road,
and the famous "Serpentine Dance" will be in
troduced hero for the first time in Seattle.
Indeed, it is said that Hallen and Hart have
formulated programme OF songs, dances and
musical features into the comedy, all entirely
new original since their advent to the Coast,
and that as this will be their last year
with slater On" sober effort has been made
to end its career in a blaze of glory. They have
in preparation for next season another musical
comedy called "The Idea" Among the musical
novelties announced in Later On" is a gavotte
In which the girls movements are directed by
singing birds. They are marvellous mechanical
shapes, with likelike imitation of voice and ac-
ton. Another tuneful conceit Is a serenade
with autoharp embellishments that has created
a perfect furors throughout the country for the
past several years. feature of Later On" is
the large number OF pretty and accomplished
girls in the company who compose the
chorus and the number of well-known people
that embrace the cast. AMONG them is the cele-
brased baritone, John Mcwade, the best of all
soubrettes, Moie Fuller and Ada Sommers,
Miss Clara Thropp, high kicker of much
prominence, aud Miss Clara DeMar. comely
mite with rare dancing abilities There are also
Florence Bell Carrie Wallace. Ethel Ormonde,

TO the patrons of the Seattle opera
house Will doubtless be the Serpentine
dance by Mollie Fuller, which is thus
described by the san Francisco Examiner.
.'I, occurs in the third act and requires TN
absolutely dark stage, out OF which Miss
Moll.e Fuller, in white, floats into the
brightness OF the lime light to make
the much-talked-of and admired dance. The
music is something that you have heard some

won't be q dozen people in the Grand

A Christmas Morning Thought.

Whatever the mode selected for
our Christmas giving. let us each

a portion Of our bounties, however
small to some one not so fortunate
as ourselves, writes Edward w. Box
in thu Christmas Der of the
Lsdios' Hon Journal. Our first
duty ia to those dearest and nearest
and truest to US; then to our
friends. But let US take just one
step beyond. No matter how heavy
we may think our burdens. there
are always those who are far moro
heavily burdencd than Ourselves.
We are not apt to think, at times,
that no ono can be more sffi cted
than we are, that none are called
upon TO bear what we are bcarin~.
But. my friend, there arc those
whose feet tresd paths compared to
which our own are paths OF luxury,
th-re are ioilers OF whose toll We
know not: there are angu,shsd
ones to whose anguish we are stran-
GERS. There are homes N which
