by home talent performers under the
direction of Madison j. Lee, at the
opera house last Thursday and Friday
evenings, was without doubt the most
pleasing presentation given from that

worn by those engaged were grand
and the way in which the little folks
handled their parts was simply won
derful. Mr.. Lee has years of expert

largely for the splendid success of the
