Record April 15.

London's New Ballet, "Chicago."
From the London Truth.

It comes on at 10:30 o'clock, and introduces its
spectators forthwith to the exhibition buildings
and lake at Chicago. It is a ballet of the newfashioned
business-like type and recalls the
realism of "Round the Town" rather than the
vague conventional romance of the Italian ballet
d'action. All kinds of subjects and nationalities
and personalities are illustrated or indicated.
There are a Nautch dance and a Spanish
dance, Signorina Pollina being very much to the
fore in the letter; there are Buffalo Bill and the
bank-breakers of Monte Carlo; there is a highland
sword-dance, and, of course, there is an
Irish jig. It is all full of life and color and variety
of movement, and it has not a dull moment in it.
