Four of the acts are excep- tionally good These are the shadow graphing of Chassino. the comedy sketch of Murphy and Willard, the performance of Blanch Sloan on the flying rings and "'rhe Military Octette." The last-named feature is elaborate and introduces fine programme of instrumental music.

At the East Lake Casino.

The Casino Opera company has been retained at East Lake for another week. "The Mascot" afforded ample opportunity for more than one in the cast to display the timber of their voices. It was cor daIly received the first half of the week, and will give way this afternoon to "The Mikado," an opera that will live as long as there is such thing as music. "The Mikado" has half dozen characters who say things and sing songs that are fla miliar to most theatre-goers, but are al- ways welcome when heard again. The title role will be in the hands of Joseph Alexander. while the real comedy work will be looked after by Leo Adde and E. l.. Graves. The former will take the part of "Ko-Ko", and the latter will stroll forth as Pooh -Bah,' the role in which Digby Bell became famous.

that his remarks are to be construed
as suggesting an ideal. rather than
forecasting an actual effort 70 secure
