Bright and. Snappy Performance at the Prince Edward

There was a large attendance at. the Prince Edward Theatre last night for the dire-t performance of the musical come-fly. "Liston to Me" which proved a delightful extrava- ganza, with a brilliant. stage setting and a well-drilled and quite charm- ing cast. The production opened upon a view over the ‘buildings of Times Square, New York City, fol- lowed by the interior of Satan's Palace in Hades. Then by a tron- derful iransformailcn this scene changed to the remote regions 0|‘ the North Pole, ending the first act.

The second act disclosed the pnr- ty in ‘Candyland. where an avenue lead to Cupid's Bus‘. Office. then to the stage of ‘the Ritz Theatre in Now York City, “there a rehearsal was in progress.

There were seven scenes ln nil, and the characters were reincarn- ntcd in keeping with their churn;- lng surroundings. The appearance of the condemned awaiting punish- men‘. in Satan's regions, the magic dissolving of this scene into the land of the midnight sun by n con- demned “Snow-ball" who steals thc Devil's formula, and the stiddexi transformation otithls into Bon Lion Land and the changing of the (rlmr- acte-rs into gum drops, peppermint sticks. carnmels and chocolate drops is a novel idea, and ‘took thc audience last might very ‘much by surprise. The scenic effect through- out was the ‘big feature of the per- formance and was decidedly good.

The capable wet includes Ross Robertson, Joe ll. McGee, Gates Austin. Eddie Wulkup, Veggie ldanlc, Valerie True nnd Marguerite William-s. A number of catchy choruses, including "Listen to Me" by Slate ‘illllle and girls: “Where's the Girl for Mo?" by J. Lucifer and T-hedn; Sleigh Bell Ballot and Fin- ale, by the Company; “Oh, You Kewple Kandy Doll" by Gum Drop Bon-bon and girls, made up a. splendid entertainment i-n them- selves, and were wnrmiy applaud- ed. The show was decidedly amus- ing. new and snappy. it is being repeated again today at the Prince Edward Theatre.

Last evening's performance was late in starting owing to the late arrival ot‘ the train, but -the audi- ence cheerfully put up with this inconvenience.

Oct. ‘bk-Two developments have just come to light in connection with the four escaped convicts who arc still at large. information gleaned from officials of the penitentiary indi- cates that the escaped convicts were not only helped by their friends on the outside but in some way or other they were helped in- side tho penitentiary walls. One rumor has it that information as to this inside help has been given by the recaptured convict McMullen.

It has also been ascertained that Ryan. one of the quartette to es- cape and who is still at large, had been a prisoner before and had

The ClnnMZJJ-QT. Guardian is now completely settled in its new of Prince and

Grafton Streets.

Since the disastrous fire on Ap- ril 28th which completely destroy- ed the Guardian building and equip Great George and Kent Streets, the pur- chase of the new present site, cor- ner of Prince and Grafton Streets, and the remodelling of the old Kin- dergarten building to suit the re- quirements of a publishing com- through with such despntch that thc staff were enabled to move into the new quar- ters on July 27th. This, it is believ- ed, is a record in reconstruction op- erntlons in this city.

Much credit is due the building contractors, Messrs McDougall & McAulay, for the speed and effic- iency in which the work was per- " formed. lmtnetliately after the fire temporary quarters were behind the Job Printing offices on Kent Street. the press and lino- type machines were installed and

was continued with the assistance irst few weeks of the Pat- riot press, witheut a day's inter-

remodelling work was started on the newly acquired Kindergarten building. lt was com- pletorl for occupation by Sept. ilth. although painting and some intor- ior refitting had still to be done.

The first work of the contract- ors in rebuilding thc present estab- lishment was the laying of heavy concrete foundation for the press at the rear on the ground floor. Then the walls had practic- ally to be torn down for the pinc- lng of new windows and partitions between the business office. the press room, mailing '
