The pleasure of the entertainment
was somewhat marred by unruly boy
who were seated on the left side of tn,
hall and frequently shouted slani
phrases of the day. AS the affair wa
completely in charge of ladies, nothin!
could be done to quell these indication
of bad breeding. This is the sam
crowd who made an earnest endeavo
to disturb peace at the Bell entertain
ment few evenings ago.
