"Side Tracked"

One of the most enjoyable enter
tainments at Cooper Opera House this
season was Side Tracked" there
Monday night. 1t had its weak points
and was not without fault, but there
were many excellent features and
upon the whole it was very good
show and thoroughly amused the
audience. Mr.. O'Connor is capable
actor and made typical tramp "a
little too familiar on short acquaint-
ance and not over scrupulous about
appropriating other peoples property
to his own use, characteristics with
out which he would not have been
true to his part perhaps.) Mr.. Mat
Schaefer as the Dutch comedian was
very good, while his Music and
Fun" assisted by his wife was one OF
the most artistic and laughable bits
of specially work on the program.
The section hand quartette, Messrs.
Conlan, Smith, Moore and Vance,
formed one OF the best features of the
whole performance. Their singing
was very fine and greatly en- joyed.

by professionals not near SO good. 1t
is to be regretted that the audience
was not larger. They richly merited
better house and in failing to receive
it we fear the company went away
entertaining anything but a good
opinion of Henderson's appreciation
