GEO. WALLACE REVUE CO.

ANOTHER NIGHT OF ENJOYMENT FAREWELL PERFORMANCE. Presenting “Sprinkles” and “At the Cross Roads,” Geo. Wallace and his clever company played to a. large and appreciative audience again last night. From the opening chorus, “Don’t Worry,” to the fall of the curtain on the finale all cares and troubles were forgotten by those present in the joy of listening to such brilliant artists as George and bis colleagues. Mr. Wallace is a real comedian and kept the house in peels of laughter right through. As Prairie Pete in “At the Cross Roacls” he was exceptionally humorous. The two Daleys, in a musical monologue “Old Time and the Sew,” were very good and again convulsed 'the house with laughter in their topicalities, featuring as it did quite a number of local celebrities. Mr. Marshall Crosby’s rendering of “Lightman Tom,” “Until,” and "Little Dream Girl,” was a ieature of the programme well worthy of comment, as also were Misses Lettie Craydon, Ada Scaddon, Marie Hyman ,ancl Linda Dale in their respective songs. The “Five Rascals” were again to the fore with some brilliant exnibitions of the graceful art of dancing, especially in their speciality dances. Messrs Wallace and Crosby, together with their respective “wives,” gave a very amusing skit on “The Naggers,” and incidentally gave some ot the audience an inspiration if they only possess the necessary nerve to carry it through. At the close of the performance Mr. Wallace, on behalf of the company, thanked the audience for the splendid reception they had received, both socially and professionally. A number ol members of the company made a trip to the mountain yesterday, and had a short hut very pleasant time amongst the snow.
