It is ||Hthat nothing so extravagantly HPeous has been seen in the way of stunting as is offered in “Our Miss [bbs,” the dresses and confections je which came principally from the g Parisian houses, and cost £4OOO. ie scenery, too, is spoken of as being pecially ‘beautiful. Tho first act, lowing the interior of a large Lenin drapery store, and the soconct Set portion of the White City Exhibion, are asserted to be _ exceptionally ie.
