ceiyed applause invariably.
"Bungle," in the language OF this
laugh producing order, means initia-
ton, as the young man who posed as
the candidate last night probably knows
by this time. The numerous ordeals
through which he passed were enough
to SKATER the nerves OF most any man,
but "Mr. William Smith" was more
than equal to the emergency, giving bis
tornlentors all they could handle on
several occasions.
The entertainment opened with the
grand procession OF Mogulians. which
was very pretty feature, Il number oil
difficult evolutions being given perfect.

Nesbitt and Myieg was OIL" OF tho best
features of a notable entertainment.
At this stAgc OF the proceedings tho
candidate was sent on trip over the
MoEuIiun railway. Tho trip was made
in u "palace car" and the train stopped
very suddenly, sending Smith" head
long into pasture OF canvas, in which,
with the aid of tho MoGulans, he frol-
