year after year its advent is hailed
with delight, for such is it's infinite
variety that it pleases all classes of
theatregoers, Its beautiful scenery
is alone worth the price of admission
and its gorgeous transformation

third acts are given with a degree of
magnificence which seems almost I'M
limitable. The "ship of roses is
one of the most delightful scenic pic
lures that has ever been given, and
the bow of the vessel studded as it is
with precious stones, whose mosaic
sheds forth prismatic rays most
dazzling in their glorious beauty. al

train for the east, where they will
spend their honeymoon. After Nov.

While her work In the cause Of tenn

great self-sacrifice which II would seem
&C uld not be greater than she had shown
in the past. yet she had taken upon her
self this year the extra work OF raising
a portion Of the $4,000 which is neces-
sary 10 redeem the capital stock OF the
Woman's Temple. which. when paid will
