The CUrtiss Comedy company ap- peared before large audiences every | night the past week, and presented a. class of plays that won admiration from everyone in the large audiences l The success of this organization is now fully established, and the park is
 nightly the favorite resort of the elite l Of the city. By the present arrange
 ments of gate fees to all who do not
 ride on the cars. the management has | been enabled to keep all undesira ble | persons from the grounds, and a more
 refined and cultured audience could not be asked for than those that at tended the performances the past week. MT. Curtiss and his players are deserving of all the praise the people are So literally bestowing upon them for no such splendin plays have ever 1 been offeerd before and the music by
 the orchestra is a feature that alone is well worth the going to hear. Of the | individual members of the company
 it would not be justice to give either one special praise, for each one is an artist from every point of view, and all should share in the credit MT. Cur tiss, Harry Lee, WIS. Hammer. Will At

 The grand open air concerts, which are becoming so popular with visitors
 to the park, are under the able direc-
 ticn of Prof. Edward Peters, and the choice musical selections rendered
 nightly reflects great credit on this able musician and his band. Tonight
 a grand open air concert will be given from 7:30 to S;30 and it will no doubt be
 the means of drawing many hundreds to the park. Admission will be free to all who ride on the cars
