For sometime past our artist, B. Cannon,
has been working on new scenery ana
new curtain for Sewers Hall. The result
is new curtain that any artist might DC
proud of or that would well adorn stage
OF much more grandeur. The scene is one
taken from the Yellowstone Park. H
shows river and that section seen among
the hills and trees and rocks gives very
touching and majestic tone to the painting
Mr.. Cannon also painted the special seen
cry for the opera, "Golden Hair and the
Three Bears" The new parlor scenery 1or
the stage is something neat and artistic
and is well suited for the work to which 1t

theatre curtains, thus keeping it in shape
