for the Klaw & Erlanger production,
soon to be presented at the Hyperion.
The successful outcome of this firms
initial exploitation of THE Brownies
and Jack and the Beanstalk" on the
same stage reflected great credit upon
the skill of Manager Bunnell's working
force, and it is safe to predict that the
new extravaganza called "A Round of
Pleasure" will be equally successful.
The first performance of the big spec
tacle takes place Thursday, the goth

forelock, so to speak, in order that
there may be no possibility of a slip up.

made awakened an unusual degree of
interest, and they were patrOnized to an
overwhelming extent. The stamp of
