tiii: nrri nosiv A company large In cast and of only average ability presented "The Red Rose" to a good sized audience at the Oliver last evening". The piece was used as a starring vehicle by Valeska Surrat a season or two ago and had some success in the larger centers. With its present cast It will do better In the smaller places. The not too brilliant story concerns the love affairs of two art students and two jflddy old men in the roles of antiquated Ilomeos. There are several catchy airs, one particularly, "Come Along Ma Cherie", which was utilized early and often. Several of the ensemble numbers were melodious and the chorus grouping, especially in the last act, was picturc-sque. The principal role, that of Lola, an artists' model, was attractively filled by Iottle Kendall, a buxum brunette with a pleasant manner and a desire to entertain. Her ability to wear bizarre gowns flashily and show a trim ankle frequently is her best recommendation for the part. Sylvia Jason, a tiny girl, played a saucy coquette briskly and Al Rauh played a smart young American in a breezy, natural fashion. "VAX'S MINSTRELS."

That a rare treat is in store for local amusement seekers is a foregone conclusion as such wonderful patronage and praise that has been bestowed upon this attraction cannot be without merit. "AN ELEPHANT ON HIS HANDS." In this comedy it is probable that most of the fun will com from the antics of the animals, two of which are featured a monkey and an elephant. The osculatory feats of the former are bound to convulse any house. The story la of a wife in love with animals and of a husband who abhors them. It is produced by Al Christie.
