About the youngest and prettiest chorus of sixteen girls that has played in New York yet this season is carried, nicely costumes. The dresses have the appearance of newness, although the season is drawing toward the centre.
Miss Vyner had a cold which affected her singing. The olio contains a musical act performed by Patton and Van.
The particularly commendable feature is that nothing is forced in the comedy. While the fun may be rebuked in spots for being over age, and in other places slightly rough, it is always clean. The men have a number of burlesques, in which they help each other nicely, but throughout the show too much unnecessary swearing is done. The openings and finales are well planned, a medley of Scotch airs, with different dressing of four Scottish "clans" at the close of Act II, differing from the stereotypes patriotic business. The " Rose Hill" company can pass through the season without much more attention. It is a pleasing show, several notches above the average as a whole, a ranking with the best in some particulars.
