the flowers were packed in wet cot

and tied with green moss, so that they
kept fresh until they reached their des-
tination.

Wonderful Creation of His trionics Seen and Heard Last Evening at Orpheum. They Were Mostly Heard.

"The Girls from U. S. A." was from this country, it is to be supposed, but from every angle of her appearance at the Orpheum last evening, must be classed among the hyphens. She was, maybe, but she and her company isn't now.
 Of the many plots and counter plots which the American stage and the scenario writer have prepared on the public In years the fellow who wrote the ''Girl from U. s. A" must have been reading De Quincy's confessions and accidentally got hold of some of the confessional. Six chorus girls endeavored to be springtly and the several principals had the hardest time in the world changing parts and costumes.
 Since the days of the ten, twent', thirt', when the she-hero and the in terrupter made an appearance tween acts it has not been fashionable to regaie an audience with stale lines when a large part of the mourners are smoking and the other part would like to. At that the one bright spot in the evenings entertainment was male trio. They faxed some clever harmony and let the curtain of disas- ter down lightly on the balance of the show.
