ADJUSTMENTS.

Observation-Disclosures Is the only
word that fittingly describes the en-
tertainment presented at the theater
last night under the name of The Cry
stal slipper" for the benefit OF the
Canyon Crest Home. While the audi
ence was big, 1t was not bigger than
the number of people massed on the
stage. The arrangement was simply
bewildering In its size and magnifi-
cence, and one came away with a de-
cided impression that this little man
AngoStino. whose brains were back of
the venture, certainly knows his bust
ness.
The enterprise was so big, and the
expenses must have been so prodigtous
that 1t is a question how much the
Canyon Crest Home will he benefited,
at least from the first nights presenta-
ton. Probably the outpouring tonight
and tomorrow afternoon will swing a
good balance to the credit side 1t GER
tainly ought TO do so, for aside rom
the worthy cause, the show is one OF
the most wonderful in the way of
spectacles that our stage has ever pre-
scented. indeed If II had any fault, IT Ia
that Angostino gives us an embarrass-
ment of riches. There was so much Of
fered that the entertainment spun out
to too great a length. and there was
nearly enough to make up several big
bills. The names of those who were
concerned are so numerous that IT. IS
difficult 10 tell where to begin and
where to end The ovation of the night
WAS rendered the cadets, and the whole
audience rose and Joined in the sing
ing of America when the fine band
struck up that strain. Miss Osborne
was the queen and very pretty she
looked Miss Bartch was princess
and Miss Reese appeared as the Song
Bird of japan in very charming fash
ion. Mrs. McCrea as Carmen" in the
gypsy act made a pretty figure. while
the minuet was charmingly done.

Other principals there We're In
plenty, but they We're submerged in
the crush. The tableau and the sing
ing of THE Pilgrims Chorus The
Palms" and MY Rosary" with the
appearance of the big gold cros", was
another striking feature. The whole

engineered 1t and It ought to draw
immensely for the remaining perform
