Theater--A merry conglomeration
of nonsense is Marrying Mary, and
the big audience which witnessed II last
night voted II one of the laughing sue
cesses OF the season Analytically con-

make II the theme OF musical come
dy. Standing alone without the assist
anoe of music, dancing, and the clever
speciality turns which now form part
