EXCELLENT VAUDEVILLE
AT CASINO TO-DAY.

The Williams Tomkins Company,
which has pleased so many visitors
at the Casino this week, will be seen
at the matinee and night performances
to-day.
With the performance tonight, the
company closes its engagement. The
company came here for all the week,
and will perform this afternoon and
tonight, as is usual with the Casino
attractions. The statement that the
performance last night closed the en-
gagement was erroneous.
The company is a good one, one of
the best that has been seen here this
season. 1t has made a hit with the
Casino patrons. Indeed, all the shows
at the Casino this season have been
above the standard of the usual sum-
mer resort productions. The mana ge-
ment has announced that nothing but
good shows will be seen from now to
the end of the season. and so far the
statement has proven true.
There is always a larger crowd to
visit the Casino on Saturday after
noon and evening than on any other
day in the week, except Sunday, and
Lessee Nelson has arranged to serve
a large number of visitors to-day
