The costumes are num- erous and in good taste. and the seen cry is good. The people have all been well drilled and the piece goes with snap.
 The music is simple and several of the numbers are especially tuneful.
 The singers have good. voices. well trained, and not only kept the pitch but several times succeeded in making themselves heard above the orchestra, the chorus singing being the best feat ure of the evening.
 Al Leech and the Three Rosebuds, well known on the vaudeville stage, are the principals of the company. Mir. Leech's eccentric dancing was worthy the enthusiastic applause 1t evoked, and The Three Rosebuds sang and danced as pretty as ever. Mir. Haney strug- gled hard to be funny in part that of- fered little opportunity to display his talents, and MT. Davies played a minor part with considerable force. Miss Carr acted the old maid schoolmarm so fa- miliar to all novel-readers and theater- goers rather convincingly.

blinded him. and the shock rendered
him half conscious. Suffering and
dazed as he was, he rushed TO his en-
Rine, signalled the men to take the
carriage and raised them all safely TO
the surface. Then he swooned. He was
the only man about the place who
could run the engine, and had he not
retained his senses and nerve 1t IS
