Harry B. Smith, in collaboration with hi stalented brother, Robert B. Smith, and Fred de Gresad are re sponsible for the book and lyrics of i the production, and it is needless to add that this trio of writers have pro- : duced a story that Victor Herbert found extreme pleasure in weaving q,' series of tuneful melodies, that will . be sung and whistled in this city; for many weeks after the limited engage ment here. The supporting company is . a capa ble one and includes Leo Stark in the principal comedy role. , GREAT SHOW AT VICTORIA.
