Joseph Hart ana Carrie Dc Mar viii
present William a. Brady's new mnsi-
cal comedy. "Mmas Papa" az the
Opera House tonight The chorus Is
one of particular beauty, but when the
girls appear as a huge bouquet OF roses
In the much talked OF American
Beatty" song they form a picture
worthy OF the brush of any artist.
Throughout the entire evening they are
constantly changing from one costume
to another each one endeavoting TO
outrival its predecessor In beauty and
gorgeouHnoss. Ih the role OF a vetefin-
ary surgeon Mr. Hart is even funnierl
than his famous Foxy Grandpa" aud
Miss De Mar has in the part Of Daisy
Blossom one that shows her talents to
the best advantage The electrical and
mechanical effects arc praiseworthy.

puzzling were performed by this
