TRIP TO cOONTOWN.

The Orpheum has materially i'm
proved. "A Trip to Coontown" pre-
scented last night was deserving OF q
crowded house, and the acting of Ern
est Hogan and Billy McClain showed
to better advantage than ever before,
The farce is clever and wholesome
all through, introducing many good
songs and choruses.
Mamie" as sung by Mamie Harris
won several encores, and the dancing
of Muriel Ringgold and Billy Robinson
was excellent.
The audience was quite enthusiastic
over the Sherral Quartet and called
them out several times. Altogether
"A Trip to Coontown" is highly enter
tanning. 1t will be repeated tonight.
