It's a dainty pure white, delightfully per fumed cream, that will feed the tissues and protect and beautify the complexion. Tallman &?Co. Leading Druggists ,t, . M. M. MM,. ......

Ail Amateur IVrforiiuuice Abounding With Professional Excellence From Start to Finish The Dusky Maiden Octette ami Madam dei Mclbuin Wore the Prime Favorites of the Evening. Willie the Entire Program Was Rendered With Smtp and Go and Artistic Finish. Those who attended the Commer cial association entertainment last night expecting to see some fun were not disappointed, for the program was even better than promised, and nearly every number brought down the house. Likewise, there was a good attendance, so the affuir was a financial success. At S:3i) the performance opened with a Dutch specialty by Messrs. Taylor. Hartman. Baum and Brooke Dickson. It was a laughable stunt, and In response to an encore one equally good was given. The next number was an Indian club drill by a class composed of Una Smith, Hazel Rader, Luclle Rader, Katherlne Smith. Margaret Lowell, Lotta Llvermore. Mabel Bickers, Miss Means, Miss McAdams, Agnes Still man, Miss Chapman, Miss Folsom. The performance was to music and was pretty. One of the best attractions on the program was the dusky maiden oc tette, in which the following young ladies took part: Mrs. Pearl Rynear- son. Mrs. Hazel Owenhouse, Miss Ivy Kimbrell. Miss Esma Sawtelle, Miss Ethel Johnson, Miss Eva Froome, Miss Bertha Alexander and Miss Faye Bartholomew. They all looked charm ing, and were repeatedly encored. In a monologue specialty Edgar F. Averlll put the house into an uproar and told some funny stories that were appreciated. In a "Rube" specialty Herbert Ruppe rrfade a hit with several catchy songs In which he was assisted by the high school quartet consisting of Messrs. Goodman, Baer, Boiler man and Scot. The first part of the program was composed of the above, and during the intermission Roy Raley entertained the audience for a trme with witti cisms upon the performance. He was encored and responded by announc ing that the show would be repeated tonight and that during the perform- nce Madam de Melbum would use a new record, as her past record was not as it should be. Also, that J. T. Hinkle would render a solo. "The Man and the Bird," In which Conrad Platzoeder would appear as the bird. The second part of the program opened with an athletic specialty by -Messrs. v lison, Nelson. Folsom, Hoff man, and Sherman Kunkel. Some very clever work on the parallel bars was given by Mr. Wilson and the high dive, a somewhat dangerous per formance was done by Clark Nelson. Later a club swinging exhibition was given by Mr. Wilson and was loudly applauded. A song by the High School Glee club was also one of the features of the evening. There are some good voices In the club, and the organiza tion compares well with the college troupes that appeared here during the winter. The hit of the evening was made by Madam de Melbum (Mark Moor house) and the singer herself was al most hit by the bouquets of celery and cauliflower from the boxes. The first selection was "Rlgolettl Maca roni Spaggettl," and by request. "Who Threw the Overalls In Mrs. Murphy's Chowder?" was given as part b. Madam de Melbum waa assisted by a phonograph. In a Zulu specialty K. J. Taylor appeared as a native from the Junjtl? and sang several pieces In n manner that produced much applause. He was assisted In the specialty by Miss uapnne Parkes. Another attractive number on the program was a selection from the "Girl From Kays," by Miss Elizabeth rmisena anu cnorus. i ney were re peatedly encored. Mr. Leo Weaver, the cowboy singer favored the audience with a solo, which was highly appreciated and en cored. The program was then concluded by the entire troupe appearing and singing. "Good Night. Ladles." Clctircd About S125. Although the th';ater last night was fairly well filled, many were pre vented from coming by the bad weather. The total receipts were $198. SO, and of this amount It is said about $125 will be cleared above all expenses. This amount will not more than half pay the balance of the In debtedness on the gymnasium. A I'OPl'LAR SINGIST. Madnm do Mellnini Finally C'nptured by Hot Admirers. Following the Commercial associa tion entertainment last evening Mad am do Melbaum (Mark Moorhouse) had the time of her life trying to es cape a crowd of suitors that flocked about the dressing room exit after the performance. Finally the madam left the theaters surrounded by her managers and some of the other peo ple In the company. On Court street a cab was In waiting, and likewise the gang. However, after valiant efforts Madam Melbum was placed Inside and the cab drove off at a run. But the bunch was unwilling to quit, and finally located the slnglst at the French restaurant, where she was taking supper with the chorus girls and some other friends, For two hours or more the crowd waited for a chance to kidnap the prima donna, but she refused to come out Meanwhile the crowd waited patiently and sang, "We want that flusle, we won't do much to her." Finally about 2 o'clock' the madam was captured In spite of all the pre- cautions taken, and was carried off by her admirers. Ilnck From Salt Lake. Engineer E.
