iANAS peioIe, ana those Who remember him
as the Doodle" of ''The Burgomaster'
will have no difficulty in believing that
ne touched nothing he did not adorn. To
crltlclse his work would be like an at
tempt to "gild refined gold or paint the
lily. Miss White (miribile dictu) can
both sing and act. Added to her vocal
and histrionic talent she has also an
easy and graceful stage presence, and all
her work is finished and artistic. Miss
Agnes Paul won the favor of her auditors
by her commendable work and Mr. Hatch
proved himself to be capable of parts
that require extraordinary talent.
The chorus is young and handsome,
and wide awake. The scenic environ
ments are adequate, and the production
very best offerings of the season. The
engagement is for the entire week.
With every other theater in the city

reason of the ferocity of the elements,
but those who braved them had no rea-

a melange of nonsensical absurdities and
serves principally as a vehicle for some
fair specialities and a handsomely cos

ladies'
The mirth producing qualities of the
attraction has been intrusted to John L.
Tlerney, john Price and Marty Moore.
and the confidence in each instance has

typical Irish policeman has enacted the
role i'll st. Paul before and he was cor

In Miss Ada DeaVes, as the Widow
Mulligan is found an representation of
satlrlcal nature that is a pretty piece
OF work. In her return to the Northwest
Miss DeaVes finds remembrances nf a
nature that bring back the times Waen
she was favorite. Those who enioyed
her work then find little room for crltI-
cism now
In sweet voiced singers the attraction
is fairly well equipped, Miss May Ethel
Courtney and Miss Louise Satour are
the leaders in this respect The Mozart
quartette in cOmicalities was an attrac-
ton that called forth repeated en2or,es

and Fred J. Huber old time favorites Of
the vaudeville stage, find vent for some
work that has brought them much fame,

scenery and handsome costumes and 8

Of clever turns. but the opening and
