success and their second and last prom
ises to break records at the Van Ness
theater. "The Ham Tree" which was
Mcintyre and Heath's Offering here two

Julian Rose, who is almost sharing
equal hOnors with the stars by rea-
son of his excellent Hebrew impersona-
tion; Fletcher Norton. whose dancing
is a revelation; Jane Burby. who plays
the ''yaller gar; John Pratt, whose fine
barytone voice has been heard to great
advantage in the lyrics of In Hayti';
Marion Stanley, whose grace and vocal
ability are winning earned praise, and
other members of the long cast of prin--
cipals.
Catchy song numbers and sprightly
dances are introduced throughout the
action of the piece. and the consensus

musical plays that has ever been eX-
hibited in San Francisco.
