sharpening the .wits of that amiable

the Royal. Dash Theatre for the
management to allow various mein,.

In the first place, Mr.,O'Lealy
pointed ,out, there were two tient-
bone•plyers in the eorchestea . 'of
the Royal Dash Theatre, he hiniself
being one, and that for the especiel
guidarice of Mr: Whiffles he would
summarily state the casetaa follows,
premising that after the rising ofilthe
Curtain on the first piece a perfdiens
ance upon the two trombones her-
' aided the approach of the villain, of
-the piece.
Further, his (Mr. O'Leary's) ex-
perience induced him to believe that

had to do, after announcing himself
as Mr. , O'Leary's substitute, would .
be to take his seat leisurely in the

rose;carefully watch the proceedings

that in reality, one trombone would
