The Merry Maidens
In the opening chorus she (Ms. Murray) wears an atrocious costume of red, plentifully besprinkled with spangles as big as quarters. Throughout the rest of the show, however, her dressing was in excellent taste.
Four changes are shown in the opening piece, all pretty with the exception of the opening number. The costumes for the burlesque are even more elaborate, there being a partial change in the last two or three minutes.

McMahon and Chappelle’s Pullman Porter Maids
Opening in fron of a drop representing the exterior of a railway station, with a clock in the tower fixed at “nine forty-five,” the girls dressed as Pullman porters, in blackface, are seated in a semicricle, apparently waiting for a dealyed train.
There is one change only from the porter uniform to the watermelon suits, for which green stockings are worn throughout by the girls to finally match the underdressing of the last costume.
