Every male mem- per.or tne company js a nrst-cias.s comedian, and their wijt and fun is fresh and free from vulgarity. There is no plot to "Town Topics," but the mirthful situatiousj are such as to guarantee a freedom from weari ness on the part of the audience. The members of the company are fair vocalists and good dancers, the after being especially true of the eminine members ot the company. It is to be regretted that a larger audience was not present to hear and see these excellent fun makers. occupied by the former. The building was formerly owned by H. R. Ottman, of Grand Junc tion.
