To The Editor Of the 81, Crolr Iris and

Dear Sir,
The Yuma-Zutka Company gave
an excellent performance last night in St.
Paul's School house. Too much cannot be
said in praise of Mr.. hiecker, who IS the back
bone OF the show. 4 should not say Back
bone, because this gentleman doesn't seem
to have such a thing III his body as a bone).
He is a contortionist Of lst class. No one
your way that can go, should let slip this
chance.
The Gentleman deserves patronage. His
mode Of making a living is a very hard one
and it is also dangerous and fatiguiuS. He
viii satisfy all, am sure, the young ana old.
When he comesy our way, Mr.. Editor, YOU
can give him a good hPuf, for he de-
serves it. / nm unable to do him full Justice
with my pen, bat you can with yours. Thds
much l will say, and | am sure you VIII
stand with me by it, and that is, he is not a
humbug.
ONE THAT WAS WELL-PLBASED.
