HARMONY GLUE oprN,Ne.-

| Inc I1drHfony CiuD rooms were last
night the scene of one of the most
| novel and interesting entertainments
| ever given by this most euterprisine
| organization. With artistic and APP
propriate decorations very deliberately
carried out. the rooms were opened for
| miniature street fair, with all the
paraphernalia of tents, booths, Ian
| terms and bunting. The entertainment
| was burlesoue. arranged and con-
| Quoted by Mr.. M. NJ. Rosenberg, and
considerable credit is due him for its
success.
The entrance hall was transformed
into the streets o>Cairo, with the usual
band of midway musicians.
The dining room was disguised as a
Chinese theatre, and the card room,
with few alterations, served as the
stadium. In the sitting rooms were
the fat lady, Mr.. Leo Kraus, and the
human skeleton. Mr.. Joe Bloch, both of
whom were most realistic.
The entertainment opened with the
march OF the Chinese band through the
streets of Cairo to the Chinese theatre,
| where the members, Messrs. Harry and
| Sam Marx and Mr.. NJ. M. Rosenberg
| gave an exact imitation of a Chinese
| opera rendered on Chinese musical in
| struments.
| The fat lady and the skeleton gave
| a very clever exhibition and were fol-
lowed by the animals, conducted by
the ringmaster. Mr.. Munroe Gusdorf,
| through the streets of Cairo to the sta
dunn. where the elephant, the mon
keys and the tame bear were put
through their PAGES, and performed
| some most remarkable feats. The ami
mails were very cleverly. initiated by
Messrs. Harry and Sam Marx, Jerome
siegel and M. M. Rosenberg.
| After the tame bear finished his
dance. he entered into mortal combat
with the skeleton and was ignominous-
| ly defeated. The audience was, then
ushered. Into the theatre which was
arrangeds like huge tent with red
white and blue bunting suspended from
the four corners of the room. The per-
Torrance opened with songs by the
Messrs. Marx, who wereSfollowed by
Mr.. Jerome Siegel, the Japanese magi-
clan, in some clever juggling and
sieight- of-hand work. A minstrel
show was next on the program. and
i was unusually good. introducing some
catchy songs and dances and eonvuls-
ing the, audience with jokes on Local
celebrities.
Mr.. Rosenberg closed the entoktain-
ment with a humorous recitation, and
dancing filled in the rest of the even
ing from $3.50 until the wee sma' hours
The AFFAIR will go down in the clubs
annals as the most successful ever
given. and much praise is due Mr.. Sam
Strauss, chairman of the committee
for his able assistance throughout the
entire burlesque.
