TOWN TOPICS

            Mr. E. Hardaker and Mr. M. Blackford, the two gentlemen who are taking over the management of the Auditorium Theatre on the 17th inst, have been very fortunate in securing for their opening bill F. Stuart Whyte’s big musical extravaganaza “Robinson Crusoe” acknowledged by all who have seen it to be the classiest musical comedy travelling the Canadian circuit to-day, and booked to appear at the Auditorium on Thursday Oct, 26th.  The Winnipeg Telegram has the following to say about it.  For this season F. Stuart Whyte has assembled a cast and chorus and provided a scenic production that has taken months and a small fortune to gather together.  The costumes alone have required infinite care and attention to detail not to mention expense and represent the best work of modistes and costumers in Europe and America.  For a mere man to try to describe the heavenly gowns and gorgeous creations would be an impossible task, however, we may admire while the ladies envy.
