It was an enterprise which was enter
ed upon enthusiastically by entire . es-
semblyS MK1 Atkinson's easy and
gracious manner ; made . the work of
learning the songs and dances a pleasure
and the short time in which . they had
to prepare themselves indicates Mr. At
kinson's wonderful managerial ability.
The appearance of the stage was ar
ranged with artistic nicety.. The scene
from the Chinese 'Honeymoon was par
ticularly attractive. It appealed to the
tastes of all who admire the unique
simplicity of Chinese or Japanese art.
Among the many pretty scenes and
songs with fine music accompaniment
was Pumkitt Colored Coons, a juvenile
fantasy. ' Another beautiful scene was
the "Moonlight sextette" with balcony
scene. Rosie Posie, by Mr. Tolson and
chorus was a lively and pleasing sketch
The well known and very popular comic
sketch "The Maiden and The Jay'
brought down the bouse with its bright
and animated story as well as pretty
music. "
The Knights of Pythias band render
ed splendid assistance to the perform
ance. ' They played some new and at
tractive overtures, two step and rag
time 'selections which were gretly ap
preciated by the audience.
