IT WAS BEAUTIFULLY GIVEN
MESS INGERSoLL,S HELENE KINDER
 C.4RNIV1L.

It Was a Brilliant Success in All Respects
 and Was Greatly Enjoyed by Two Mann
 moth Audiences at the Hyperion Yester-
 day-To be Repeated on Friday Evening
 by General Desire,
 All agree that Miss Justine Inger-
 soils "Kleine Kinder Christmas Car
 nival," which took place yesterday af-
 ternoon and evening, was @ complete
 success. From the time the curtain
 rose till the last ballet there was not
 a moment when all could not enjoy
 themselves. For the opening piece
 there was "The Ballet of Pierrote's,"
 a very graceful dance, the following
 girls taking part: Edith Roy, Daisy
 Meyer, EdanI Craft, Libby Perrett, May
 Carrola, Emma Well, Edna Joachim
 son, Clara Lichtenstain and Miss Edith
 Barr It was loudly applauded and
 we'll deserved it.
 Edith Barr appeared in her different | characters and dances, calling forth
 well merited applause for so young a | child. In her dances with Jean Coburn | the steps were taken with remarkable ease and grace, assuming the different
 positions with the finish of profess | sionals. La Camleia in a Spanish
 dance called for commendation as also Hayden in his legerdemain. His card | trick was excellent and was done with
 the ease of Kellar. Little Freddie
 Smith executed the Sailors Horn pipe" as well as one could wish, re-
 fleoting great credit on his teacher, Miss Lou Coburn. while the orchestra played an appropriate selection, Fred die we'll eXemplifed the poetry of motion and delighted all. Miss Rita, Smith sang Boarding House Delights" from Syntax. She carried a large doll, which she kept hitting over the head to show her fondness for the boarding house and she did her part with ex- quisite felicity,
 Baby Ruth surprised all by singing and dancing when she could hardly hold her feet she was so small, But she was equal to the occasion and cov cred herself with glory,
 Buttons, or better known under the stage name of "Tipton Slab" made a hit with his reptiles. The different snakes were completely under his con trol and the little fellow seemed fas- cinated himself with his pets.
 The clown. and he was regular one, did some very good tumbling and managed to make away with half loaf of bread during his act. Miss May Carrola carried her part exceed ingly well and gave her impressions of the wedding march without fault and with great credit to herslef and in- structors.
 In the last ballet, which wholly orig mated with Miss Ingersoll, the children were dressed as crackers and cornu- copias and there was an old man who | represented, the old year who made his appearance on float at the back Of | the stage In front of him was an im- mense cracker and after all the dancers | had gone to him and obtained little | crackers from his store there was loud snap and the big cap was pulled apart, revealing .little% Baby Ruth (Ruth LichtensteinJ as the 'New Year" | who ran down to the footlights. The dance was an exceedingly pretty one and formed fitting close to an ex- cellent program. Those taking part in it were: May Carrola, Edith Roy, Daisy Meyer, Edna Joachinson, Emma Well, libby Kavanagh, Edna Craft Clara Lichtenstein, Lolo Schappa, Fanny Hodgdon, Gerty Roy May Don nelly, Hattie Loeb, Clio Child, Edith Blydenburgh and Lille Craft.
 The stage setting was very appro- priate and was the design and ar of George Miller who was surely a success at it. Ported flowers were placed about. with numerous oolored electric lights. A preety foun- tain, from which stream of water flowed, occupied a position in the rear and was quite original.
 outside the first and last pallets Miss Coburn had charge of the dancing and certainly she needs to be compli- on the success of her pupils, Miss Coburns classes are very popular and contain some 120 scholars, all of whom do her great credit. Miss In- gersol's original ballet needs commen- Iation, as it is entirely original and shows her admirable taste and Judg- nent. 1t is something that is new to and the way it is re- ,eived only goes to show that de- ,ided success has been performed There was a loud call for a repetition if this delightful entertainment aud { Miss Ingersoll last evening felt obliged o yield to the popular desire and an bounced that she would repeat the Carnival next Friday evening.
