usually large audience to witness the new
version of the piece, which opened a
weeks engagement at the Stair house.
The novelties are SO varied that it is
somewhat difficult to enumerate them in
the order of merit. They are scattered
Throughout the play and form a most en-
tertaining bill Among the most con-
spicuous are the t-5iH~d bulldogs, who
engage in a very funny bcXiag match. and
the eight Diamonds. who come to Amer

many other new and well-deviscG fea-
lures please the audience. The panto-
mines are especially fine, and Pierrot
manages to do all sorts of marvellous
things. He drops from the moon 70
Mount Vesuvius and an eruption is
ordered for his entertainment. From there
he makes flying visit to the Pan-Ameri-
can Exposition. and here is shown a most
realistic reproduction of the Buffalo fair,
including view of the grounds as they
appeared at night in all their electrical
glory. There is race scene in which
