Listen Lester" opened an engage ment at the Jefferson theatre last night A company of hard-working players soon brought forgetfulness of the coal strike the approaching Christmas bills and most of the other ills that flesh is heir to, for there are no dull moments in the piece. It has evidently been devised solely for entertainment, and it serves that purpose well.

They were well repaid for braving the weather and the darkness( also for the eXertion required to reach the theatre little ahead of the usual hour, for Listen Lester is one of the nest musical shows of it's type seen a the Jefferson in a long while.
 It has not the poetical appeal of such pieces as 'Maytime" and ''Springtime," but it surpasses either of these delight ful musical comedies in sprightlX humor.
