The same bill is being presented for three days more including today. The performance yesterday open- ed with an introduction of the Am- erican Beauty chorus. The mem- bers ran out on @ runaway built from the stage. They were intro- duced by Billie Dunbar as “Inni cence,” “Love,” “Extravagance, etc., each being dressed in keeping with the name. Harry Dunbar made a hit at the start in his re- cital of different quips as each of the choristers made her appearance One member, a blonde dancing girl appears to possess considerable tal- ent which she will reveal to a great- er extent as the company remaing in the city for a period. Celestine O'Neil, the prima donna, sang “Marcheta” yesterday, dis- playing a beautiful contralto voice, ‘The members of the chorus were dressed in costumes representing the Italian, which added a great deal to the impressiveness of the song. One will want to hear more from Miss O'Ne!l. Maudina ‘Dunbar, accompanied soveral of the singers in their light- er stuff. She sat at the plano also for Harry Dunbar in one of his more serious melodies. Lew Newman, eccentric comedian has a bushel of talent. Mr. New- man will go to any extent and any inconvenience to himself if he can by so doing obtein a laugh from the audience. Both Mr. Newman and Mr. Dunbar are well versed in the tricks of their trade. The tininess of Jimmy “Tiney” Brennen ts sure to make him a great favorite. He is well qualified as a dancer but does not confine his ac- tivity to this phase of the work. Mr. Brennan and Mr. Ireland appear ina dance number. First they pull the ever popular idea of trying to outdance each other, playing for the favor of the audience. They conclude then that they will mend matters by dancing together, Jack Flynn appeared opposite Miss O'Nefl in the travesty on “Who's Wife." ‘This little sketch takes up the problem of the busi- ness man who ts apt to forget his wife because of his absorption !n his affairs. The climax is un- looked for. A word should be spoken for the chorus in passing. This organiza- tion is made up of a group of clever and pretty singers and dancers, sure to make friends as they go along. As a whole Billle Ireland's com- pany is sure to have a successful run in Casper because of the versa- tility of the several members of the company, their apparent sincerity In trying to give their audiences the best that is in them, and the fact that the company is above the ay- erage that has formerly appeared at the Columbia.

WASHINGTON, Oct. %9—Harry F. Sinclair, whose lease of the tea- pot dome naval of] reserve led to one of the bitterest cotitroversies of the last congress, was quizzed about the leasing negotiations and his re- lations with government officials generally when he appeared as a witness today in the inquiry being conducted by the senate public lands committee. In Dart the testimony of the oll phar iy ‘was & repetition of the story he told last spring to the La- Follette of] investigating committes.

Undér questioning he also touched briefly on his per- sonal visit last year with Fall, who as secretary of the interior, signed the lease. The Sinclair company had oil the pipe line is now about 75 per cent completed. Another witness at today’s hear- ing was Theordore Roosevelt, assist- ant secretary of the navy, who told the committee that although he helped draft the executive order transferring Teapot Dome from the navy to the interior department, he did not know of the Sinclair lease until it had been made.
