travelling through the United States at

in this city last night at Scheuer-

The young members of the troupe,
the little boys, are very finished per-

dexterity but also remarkable strength
for their tender years. The street car
service was excellent. The troupe
will give performances every night
this week. A special matinee will be
presented next Sunday afternoon.
