This light opera, the joint product of two orsthree bright young men of Easthanp- toa, Mass., is having a run in western Massachusetts, and it's fame is spreading. It is the best thing in light comedy pro- duced in long time. As given in Palm CT under the esuperintendence of it's authors it is pronounced by them one of the best renderings they have seen by amateur koJ D,1fr1 iS capital in acting and singing.
