have won for him q warm spot in the
hearts of all theatre-goers. His sing

it as none other could. Butte sings
swee..y yet. and theatre goers will
hope to have the pleasure Of hearing
his sympathetic voice for many sea-

of Charles Z. Davies and the German
warbling Of Miss Emma Dc Forrest
won hearty applause.
