fairly large-SiZed audience greeted
"A Breach of Promise at the Marga-
ret last evening. The performance is
. what it is advertised to be-a farce
comedy. There is no plot or play to
the piece, and the dialogue seems to
Z have been put in in order to give the
actors time to rest up between special
ties. Joseph Harrington heads the list
on the programme, but not on the stage.
Burt Haverly holds first place when it
! comes to acting. He seemed to have
enough to do for a couple of ordinary
7 men, but he did well what he had to do.
He sang well, cracked some good jokes
and was generally entertaining. His
4 1mita ton of Sousa at the end of the sec
"ond act was exceedingly funny and the
bit of nonsense brought down the house.
Tony Pearl did clever speciality on the
cello and Italian harp, while Burt Jor-
dan demonstrated that he is one of the
best buck dancers who has ever been
in Anaconda. Miss Nellie Sennett sang
several beautiful solos and pleased her
audience immensely. Miss Frances
+ Gerard has a sweet, musical voice. and
her efforts We're well received. Miss
Rose Crouch did clever turn in aero
batic dancing and the rest of the pro-
gramme was filled in with specialties Of
all kinds. Miss Luella Miller had very
little to do except to look pretty.
