An Entertainment In Union that De lighted Spectators. The Union correspondent of the Coluwbia State has the fol lowing to say of the production at that place of "Puss in Boots" under the direction of Mr. J. Madison Lee, who is to give the same entertainment here on the night of May 15 for the benefit of the school library and the reading room. "Puss in Boots" or "Witch's Revenge" was played here last night by home talent, consisting of about 100 children ably as sisted by about 25 young men and ladies, all under the direc tion of Mr. J. M. Lee, who was secured by the ladies of the Episcopal church to direct the play. To say the least of it, there never was a larger or more thor oughly pleased and highly enter tained audience assemblkd in the opera house than on this night. The stage was draped in pure : white, all the costumes with but few exceptions being the same. The adien'e was captivated and held so in the first scene, which was the "Beautiful Liliputian Wedding," participated in by 16 little boys and girls in full dress. The cute little bride and groom, who were Master William Wal lace, aged 5, and Miss Ruth Gault, aged 5, marched to the front arm in arm to be united in marriage. The ceremony was performed with the ring, it being: carried through by Master Fred, Wallace, a twin brother to the little groom. The bride promised to love, care for, support and protect the groom, while he sim ply consented to accept such a lovely bride. The second part also deserves special noting. It was the "Sculpt6 s Dream." The statu ary, being 24 ladies, Miss Eth lind Goss being the animated statue and Master William An derson being cupid, with ..ganz wings, sat perched high on his pure white throne, and who grace fully descended aad went to the side of the sculptor, J.
