stream Of people, Notwithstanding the
fact there were two other moving pic

All who attended were more than
satisned and pronounced the pictures
the finest they had ever seen.
Miss Henrietta Ratterman's play

dience. There was some disappoint-
ment of the failure Of the trap drum
mer to appear in his accompaniment

to secure some one to fill the place,
