The march over, the Mogullians exer-
cised their voices in q strain entitled,
SAIL present are here by riRht. 'Fis
we'll" McGusiIam announced that
victim awaited initiation without and the
candidate was introduced by way oil the
"barriers"
The barrier route Is . very breezy
way Of entering the sacred precincts oil
the Mogullians. 1t means trip over
flight of rolling stairs, which lands the
victim at the bottom with banR!-some-
times on the slippery-day order, yea
know. When the prospective candi-
date recovered his momentum, he
was led before the Grand
Quillpusher, who very sagely catechizsd
him as to fitness to join such an august
society. His answers were to the point,
r for he said he was reputable citizen,
Fourth warder, director OF the
Island bridge company, believer in re-
duced fares over the river and possessed
hopeful view of Towards election.
The Mogullian Quartette rendered
few selections In an admirable manner,
after which the pilgrim was escorted
aboard the Charleston for a trip to Bull
waw. He was decorated with q life
preserver, which must have exhausted
the Home Dressed Beef Company. he
needed it and more, too, before he
reached the end of his voyage. The
Mogullians made it pretty hot for him
and kept the house in roar at the
lively manner in which they tossed
him over the Bounding pillows.
The only Cagliostra entertained the
audience with few very clever feats
of magic. Mr.. w. B. Day took the
house by storm by his delightful rendi-
tion of WEIGH melody. Prof. Hugh
j. WHITE, announced IS "Pompadour
JIM" and Percy Martin, called kan
CARGO jake" did little Of the manly
art, for the instruction OF the pilgrim
and the edifcation Of the audience.
They spared very clever round, when
a North Wheeling athlete tried conclu'
sions with Mr.. Whyte.
1t being considered that the pilgrim
was now versed in the science OF self
defense, the mitteas were put on his
hands and he was stood up before that
old-timsr BILLY Goat" but the
goat got the better of 1t. While
breathing spell was given the
candidate, Mr.. James Morgan gave
taxing monologue about "Massa
Johns one-lsgged goose" and
w. B. Clemens sang ballad, both OF
which renditions pleased the audience
so we'll that encores were demanded.
MyleS and Nesbitt presented an Irish
character speciality which was we'll re-
ceived. The pilgrim then had TO do
a little dancing on his own hook. He
was placed on brass pedestal with
electric attachments which made
him hop the light fantastic from
common metre to the Virginny
Reel. The troubles OF the pilgrim ended
with trip over the Mogulian Electric
Railway. 1t is good thing it ended
there, for 1t is doubtful II he had much
farther to go whether he would be alive
to tell the story. He was then received
with all due honors at the royal court
of the Mogullians.
In addition to the tableaux OF legal
splendor, the really excellent perform
ance closed with solo from Chas.
Zulauf, which was fitting climax to
the good things of the evening.
The management are entitled to the
highest praise for the meritorious eXhi-
bition presented. There was an entire
absence OF the "waits" common to
amateur performance which shows that
those in charge of the affair knew their
business.
