lease on the Equitable building, at a

der the direction of D. V. Mitchell,
who has the show in charge. and if the
pans are carried through, il will be
the biggest thing the college has ever
seen.
In the first part of the show, a
chorus Of 20.men will take part This
first part will be something entirely
out of the ordinary and will be worked
along an entirely original plan. A
scene will be represented with a boat
in the background on which will be
seated the chorus, passengers on the
steamer. On the wharf will be seated
six deck hands. doing end men stunts.

kinds of stunts will be given. One ac-
Irobat is so good he will really go right

he has never been able to make it. He

There are other good things, both
clever and funny. which will interest
the audience.
The show will be ended by scream
ing farce comedy in one act. one which
is not Only said to be funny, but is
funny and presents the most ludicrous
situations and local hits. This will be
black face comedy and the men who
have been picked for the parts are

ity to act and use the negro dialect.
