that the $500 was never paid.

Mr. Munroe is assisted by a corps Of
capable comedians. graceful dancers.
ard several excellent singers. whose spe-
cialtics were well received. In My

attempt at refinement. The Irish lady
is as rough as pigiron. but is equally
as witty IN her SaNlT s. ana comlCal IN
her gesticulations and actions. The
chief speciality Of the evening was a
monOlogue by Mr.. Munroe. in which
she" tells of her marriage 10 Mike Nc
