formers who sailed for Europe a lit
tie over two years ago returned
home crowned with fame, honors
and fortune after am unprecedented
career of London success. They af-
forded the British metropolis a gen
uine sensation.
The players in this representative
American organization have been ac-
claimed by London audiences and
critics as having inaugurated an en-
tirely new era in things theatrical
ON that side of the water. The
Belle of New York has given go
performances at the Shaftesbury
theatre. London. and was withdrawn
before its popularity had diminished
in the slightest owing to the Boer-
British war sentiment. The great
enthusiasm displayed at the Bellies"

ed by the ardour and cordiality of
its reception at the Casino upon its
return home. This season The
Belle of New York" will he produced

try and the success which has been
afforded this great Casino spectacle

Mr.. Hoar's argument now is
essentially Clement Vallandig-
hams in 1868. The American
people answered Vallandigham
at Appomattox. Mr.. Hoar's ar
gument now is essentially w. J.

The American people answered
Bryan at the polls. That answer
