 The personnel of the company were: Misses Emily Waterman, Dot Fay Trot, Margaret E. Slater V. and Urania B. Rogers. Each u.em Der of the company are artists of a high class. The readings ere en- tertaining; the singing was soul stirring and the instrumental selec- tlons were sweet.
 Long will the sweetness of this entertainment finger in the minds of those who heard them, and if the company ever retu rms here they will be received with ope n arms.
