At no time during the eve- | ning was the crowd allowed to feel | boredom creeping in. Something | doing: every minute seemed to be| | the order of the evening, and this | spirit was responsible in a large meosure for the success of last night’s show. The Arkeon orchestra “played aa they never played before.” Thetr accompaniment for the musical en- tertainers was faultless, and their individual presentation of several of the latest musical numbers added to the brilliance of the entire affair.
