"a RAGTlME RECEPTION"
arge Crowd Attends This Jolly Func-
ton at Lothrop's.


The goodly number who attended
The Ragtime Reception" at Lothrop's
last night, found it one Of the most
enjoyable social events they ever par
ticipated in. Not the least bit OF stiff
ness nor fcrmality generally peculiar
10 receptions. Everybody became ac-
quainted at once, and had a laughing,
rollicking time together. The refresh
ments, Of course, were Of the intangi-
Bile sort, but the jokes were as meaty
as salad, the songs as sparkling as
champagne, and the pretty faces and
forms substituted we'll for fruit and
flowers.
Being carefully cautioned by the au-
thor on the program, nobody looked Tor
any plot, and so were not disappointed.
They were interested though, right from
the start, and alternately laughed and
applauded through the TWO hours ana
a half that the songs and spectalties
lasted. Gus PiXley, as a tramp, headed
the cast and the funmakiug. His bur-
lesque on the modern undressing act
caused an outburst of merriment, and
he was responsible for another load u
hilarity in the last scene. Gertrude
Fort, always a favorite here, and one
of the best old maid impersOnators
in the profession, made q big hit with
her topical song, That's a thing
can't forget" Henri Laurent, the erst-
while operate tenor, made a clever
dude, and furnished most Of the com
pany's share Of real melody. Charles
Philips, whose name is a household
word among lovers of black face com
edy, attended to the daTkey dialect.
His songs, dances and m0nOlOgUe were
features of the evening.
Miss Julia Glover led the feminine
contingent in the role of an eX-queen
Of burlesque, and looked as handsome
and as stately as queens of all sorts
are supposed to. The six or eight
other young women are all charming
and execute a quadrille or a ragtimt
dance with equal grace and facility.
The noted irish comedy couple, Muir
ray and Mack, are coming to this house
next week, after three years OF ab-
sence, in their new farce, "FAnigan's

for the poor children. But on top Of
all that, they gave ten thousand to
few party pets for holding teachers
or educational institutes.
For the last two years the public
schools have made better progress
and did more good than for the same
time IN the States histo.y. There
have been q few disturbances and
some teachers turned out and ladies
treated badly; yet all this came from
the machine now placed in control.
There is \ great opening for AN
educational campaign in the State.
Our Democrats have said they had
their wisest aud best men in the Leg

the oppressed and to put politics on
