cIerer show Id NoreIfE.

An enjoyable entertainment is that
provided by the bill which is on at the
Novelty theater this week. All the
numbers on the programme are way
above the average in their line and
were applauded heartily by the audi
ences which filed the house at the
four performances given yesterday
afternoon and evening. The work Of
the four Bragdons is unusually clever.
These men and boys put on a comedy
sketch with lots of good dancing and
singing which made a hit with the
crowds. They conclude their turn
with female approximations which are
best ever seen here. Another clever
act is that of the Musical Fays. They
play a variety of instruments ia a
sIilIfuI way and finish up with a box
ing bout where every blow. delivered
and movement made helps to play
tune. Ahearn and Baxter, acrebats,
do many clever stunts and the NOV
ing pictures 1.-THE Russian Nihilists"
are one of the best series which has
been seen at the theater.
