In the cast were several familiar
faces. First of al was recognized

last night, his comedy real comedy, his
rolling gutterals and Dutch infection
provoking many a laugh. Bessie Stokes,
cast as a chorus girl, formerly of this

well, although she had to stand for
some digs from the comedians.

Central today put on two oil-burning
locomotives for use on the line through
