AMUSEMENT NOTES.
Over IS People Appear with "The Lady
of the Slipper"

"The Lady Of the Slipper" which Is
announced to appear at the opera house
on Wednesday Sept. 2, is heralded as a
musical fantasy in three acts, score by
Victor Herbert, book by Ann Caldwell
and Lawrence Mccarthy, lyrics by James
O'Dea and staged by R, H. Burnside.
All these names mean things TO people
who are happy when they are led through
the general paths of tuneful music and
pictorial artistry to hearty laughter.
Given that it is Charles Dillingham; who
presents The Lady of the Slipper" as
surance becomes doubly sure that the
details of stage inyestture viii not only
be opulent but in good taste.
As usual. Mr.. Dillingham; leaves the
story and descriptive details of his new
show to the appreciation of his first
night audience. He seldom failed of re-
ceiving that appreciation since he entered
the realms OF musical comedy produe-
ton.
The fact that there are over rs people
in the company and an opera orchestra
of picked instrumentalists is pleasantly
suggestive.
The cast contains the names Of such
favorites as Charles DAILY, Dan Healy,
Tom Dingle, Billie Evans, Gretna East
man, Rilly Deaves, George Poultney,
Phil Dryer, Rene Castelton, Irving Car
penter Bill Florence, etc.-Adv.
