Chuck and Buck, unable seamen, were hilariously and excruciatingly funny, as also was Jasper,' the black-faced comedian. Dolly had pretty dresses, and the costumes of the other girls were, at some of the stages of the play, attractive and becoming. The dancing j was very good, and a little of the i singing did very well. Did anybody 'ever think it looks silly to - see a I bunch of people slinging limbs?
