Oscar Hammerstein Appears
Without a Silk Hat;
a Sensation.
tBy Emory B. Ca1vert.N

New York, n. Y, Aug. 3.-The past
has been a surprisingly dull week,
enlivened only by a series of thunder
storms that kept the Coburn Players
portrayers of Shakespearean drama
as originally Shakespeared, in a state
OF agitated flight between their open
air theatre on the campus of Colum-
bia University and an improvised stage
in the university gymnasium.
Taking into account the handicap
however. the Coburners got away
with their Elizabethan characterization
with flying colors OF course Petru-
chic did get little wet in the storm
that broke up The Tanning of the
Shrew," and his bride, together with

ties Of the latter and the slow work
the former made on a heavy track, but

performances, taken as a whole, were
none the less successful for the rain.

fresco entertainments built around the
several masterpieces of the Bard of

naturally attaches to such perform

Greer's blacksmith shop. which was
broken into to obtain them.

source so,OOU.yO after deducting
the County Clerks fee Of Is cents
