Gorton and Lee, justly styled the
"Kings of Musical Comedy" are with
| Gort0n'S MinStrcls this season. These
gentlemen are both expert sOlOists
on their various Instruments, and are
presenting an act which is remarkable
for the high order of music they in
trOduce. a very strong contrast is
formed by the introduction of real
genuine comedy without the accom-
paniment of the "horSc play" which
usually characteriZeS performances of
this kind. At Grand Opera House.
