mas held the boards Friday and Sat
urday, and appeared TO please the gal
lery, but was enacted by a mediocre
cast some of the performers in the
company were very poor. The seen
cry and effects We're good. At the OPP
era House on Thanksgiving the
"Rajah" was the attraction which fail
ed to please the large audiences which
assembled. III there were ever any
good features in it they must have
been eliminated before the show reach

satisfied good audiences.
