tacle OF the style made familiar by The
Twelve Temptations, The Devils Auction

the last act, representing a deserted castle
on the Rhine, was unusually good. A
unique and beautiful electric ballet was
introduced in this act and Won much APP

used as in a May pole dance, and tiny
electric lights, which covered the costumes
OF the dancers, flashed in various effects,
making indeed u very pretty spectacle.
The ballet, if it can be SO called-for
there was no premier danseuse-was small
in numbers, but versatile. With the ex-3
ception OF the Pantomimists Borani and
Elliott, the principals were not up to the
standard even of spectacular productions

and pave the way to final adjustment
Now that this phase of tie negotiation
is closed the officials here feel that 1t
would ioe unsracf,ous to disclose JUST
what Powers did not look with favor
upon the removal plan, and uley decline
