The fun is gen- uine and there is plenty of it, Kolb, Dill and Bernard being at their most hilarious in their banking skit, and everybody has something to do and does it well.

Then there is George de Long, new and nice; Harry Hermsen as a cannibal | monarch, and all the large cast in fine | fettle. The chorus is largely ‘augented and the girls sig as well as look un- commonly fetching, *“Hoity Toity’”’ prom- ises a long, long run. . | The val of “Patience” at the Tivoll is creating strong interest among the fre- quenters of the little opera-house, and it is a production to be proud of in every way. The people of the cast are doing splendid work all along the line, and there is much credit coming to the manage- ment for these revivals. Bright, spark- | ling_thoroughly musical, the opera is one f the prettiest of the Gilbert and Sulli- repertolre. The next bill is “Iolgnthe,” and begins | on Tuesday evening @ext.
