The prima donna herself was in a box. Her appearance was made the occasion for one of those curious scenes now inseparable from Mme. Farrar's public visits to her native city. When she entered the box, house and orchestra rose simultaneously and faced her, the conductor waved his baton like an acolyte offering incense, and the band played "My Country Tis of Thee...
...Cartmell ocC made a very pretty princess and sang his numbers well, especially. "Dreams" and the "Bride Hunter." J. S. Pfaffman '17 also sang well. R. T. Bushnell '19 played the comedy role to perfection, closely followed by C. R. Larrabee '19. Strange to say, there was no villain...
