The Grand Opera Housewas crowded to the guards Tuesday night al the per formance of "Mr Bob," given by Rich mond people for the benefit of 1 Pattie A. Clay Infirmary. The receipts of the evening were over $300, but the expenses were necessarily heavy and the net proceeds were considerably cut down. The ladies who had charge of the entertainment worked overtime in making it the success it was and they are "deserving of hearty congratulations. Their efforts were spent in a worthy and laudable cause. "Mr. Bob" is a highly interesting play and the presentation of it would have been creditable to people who have made the stage their sphere. Mr. Robert Burnam, Jr., impersonated Phillip Rayson. devotee of the yacht, and his work was most creditable. His stage manner is easy and graceful and his splendid voice could be heard over the house. As Robert Brown, a much abused law clerk, Mr. Roscoe Gilmore Stott, of the Normal faculty, is entillea to great credit. Evidently he has been on the stage before and one might well accuse him of being a professional in the theatrical world. His was rather a ludicrous part and he kept the audience in an uproar. Prof. D. W. Bridges, superintendent of Caldwell High School, played the dignified role of Jenkins, the butler, who objected very seriously to cats, to which the lady of the house, Rebecca Luke, was very much enamor ed. He was exceedingly good. R-ibec-ca Luke was represented by Mrs. D. L. Cobb, whose make-up and work was of a highly creditable nature. Miss Jane D. Stockton, as Katherine Rogers, Re becca Luke's niece, was par excellence Her ease and grace were commented on by the audience and berefforts were re warded with liberal applause. Marion Bryant, "Mr. Bob " was well portrayed by Miss Martha Burke. She put much life into her woik and made the char acter a most interesting one. Of Miss Julia Higgins, as Patty, "daffy" on dra matic art, too much cannot be saiJ. Graceful, easy and "catchy," she tilled the bill most creditably and acceptably. There are few amateurs who could have acted her part so cleverly. During the evening a number of drills were given and those who took pari in them showed that they had been train ed by a skilled person. Every move ment was in time and accord with the music, and there was not a bawble made even by the little tots, or which there were 35 or 40. The singing of Mr. Joseph Keller, dancing of Mr. Frank Devore and the work of the chorus was exceedingly clever. Those who took part in the latter were: Misses Elizabeth Gormley, EJlen Walker, Geneva McCarthy, Mary Bol lin, Ruth Wiggins, Katherine Devore, Joseph Schlegel, June W. Wiggins, Jos. Keiler, John Cabell Chenault, Ben Cas siday. Willie Elder, Frank Devore. -' The Greek dance by Miss Elizabeth Chenault, of Lexington, was greatly en joyed. She is a beautiful girl and her ease and grace was the subject of much favoaable comment. During one of her numbers Miss Laura Bright sang as on ly one with a sweet voice and practice can. The mnsio was one of the many good features of thJ opening, the orchestra of seven persons furnishing it. Mncii time had been spent preparing it for the occasion. Mrs. Keliegg and Misses White and Uiunchlgliani played the ac compniments on the piano during the performance and of course they did it well. The large crowd was more than plea ed with the "show" and the performers and promoters have been the subject of much laudation since the curtain went down on the last act.
