Mcintyre and Heath, in "The Ham
Tree" Score Hit-"Hoity Toity."
Klaw and Erlanger's 1.-THE Ham
Tree" and especially Mcintyre and
Heath, who are being featured in the
product, scored distinct and most
satisfactory hit before large audience
at the Odeon Sunday night No more
happy, humorous, and bright comedy
or musical comedy has showed at the
5Odeon this season, and while, Of course,
Mcintyre and Heath are entitled to
much Of the praise which the organiza-
ton drew to itself, there are others in
the cast, not forgetting the chorus.
The black face act, in which Nc
Intyre and Heath appeared in vaude-
Vile, has been expanded, garnished and
frightened, and the result is three acts
without much Of plot, but with plenty
of fun, and music, and chorus that IS
not only "peach," but that can dance
and sing as well.
Mcintyre and Heath both appeared In
black face. The one is minstrel, and
induces the other to become one. Then
the show goes "broke" and the two
disconsolate, tired, and almost starved.

from home. One is pessimistic and
the other an optimist, and the situation
furnishes the best possible opening for
a dialogue that is funny in the ex-
IRENE It is taken advantage of too,
until the optimist causes his imagina-
ton to expand into a tale OF trees that
grow hams, and eggs, of Switzer
swamp and beer river.
Mcintyre is as good as Heath, and
both are par excellent. Genuine COM
edy Of the first water is the effort OF
the two. In many respects the pro-
duction is unusual. There are but two
solo parts of the cast. that of Freder-
lex v. Bowers, who took it well, and OF
Miss Belle Gold. All the other songs
are sung by the chorus. Much of the
clogging and dancing reminded one of
the minstrel.
The songs were comparatively few.

Grafton of Miners made their greatest
assault upon Harry Orchard Thurs
day. when carrying the review by
cToss-examination of his life of crime
down to his confession, they bitterly
assailed his guiding motives. Six
days spent in stripping him before
the jury of every shred of morality of
character, and then, suddenly turning
upon him in final fierce attack, they
fought with every means known to
the legal craft to convince the jury
that Orchard was committing crime
in falsely swearing away the lives of
innocent men in the hope of saving
his own. They carried their attack to
the very language that the witness
answered their questions in, and ev-
erywhere they alleged by forceful inn
plication that it was put in his mouth
by men controlling him.
