The remainder of the performers made commendable efforts in their parts. We would suggest, however, that there was a little tint of machinery in the thing which, with a very littlo practice, will disappear. Miss Minnie Xolte did the piano which was one of the most arduous tasks iu the whole business and which was done with skill and entertainingly.

The trial by jury which came immediately after Pinafore intended as a farce far surpassed iu our opinion the intention of the actors. It was more than a farce, it was a fudge. Judge Geary Neal was a good and just Judge and we glory in his "spunk," but we think he ought to have punished the defendant as well as the plaintiff. Tho jury seemed to be a fearful lustful little gang, but the court's bailiff was equal to the occasion. The bridesmaids were handsome and so was the bride, and were all neatly and tastefully attired.

The lady spectators were conspicious for their silence for the most part, but of course added to the trial. We take pleasure iu saying that the whole affair was a success and join heartily with everybody else in recommending that the same troupe get up another performance in the course of the winter.
