With big hats and the pervading flush of color, the stage seemed filled, but it made one dizzy when the swaying to the music began, the picture hats nodding, swaying and turning to right and left. Still more gorgeous color fairly assaulted the eyes when the company came out in London, where travesties galore were perpetrated on the costumes and customs of our British cousins, and where there was a doal of clever massing and marching of the gayly bedizened crew. Keally beautiful were the color effects, and the song, "The American Beauty," in the third act, by young women In varicolored gowns and hats, with a Maypole dance accompaniment.
