"king Pepper" a Grand Success.

That king Pepper" has been a sue
cess and L decided drawing card for
the Board of Trade fair was proven by
the large number of people that saw
the matinee and evening performances,
Friday, and il can be fairly estimated
that between $500 and 1000 persons wit
messed the piece during it's three pre-
sensations. Those in the afternoon and
evening, Friday, were performed with
the same snap and splendOr that char
acteriZed the first performance.
The opinion has been expressed by
critics that King Pepper" is without
doubt the greatest amateur perform
ance ever presented east of Boston.
The mechanical arrangement for the
descent of the aStrologer is one of the
hits of the State Fair scene and is an
original one made by Fred A. Peacock
that is the cause of a good deal of ex-
element and amusement for the au-
dience. A comet is the mode Of trans
portation taken by the astrolOgcr and
the speed with which he shoots down
from above is enough to make the
pulse quicken.
A most pleasing part of the
series Of the entertainment has
been the splendid music by Themes
orchestra of 20 pieces. The mention of
this orchestra always insures must
cal treat, as the professor will consent
to nothing but first-class work in every
gagemcnt. He has taken special in
terest in the fair and has contributed
in 10 small measure to it's pleasure
and success. 1t is always q pleasure to
listen to his music and no one enjoys
it more than our Gardiner people, who
are delighted with that rendered dur
ing this week.
The fair will conclude this evening
when the season ticket presents will
be awarded and everyone will want to
30 to take home the first present Of
800.
