HUGHES COMEDY. COMPANY.
Another Success with "Fiddle
Dee Dee.**
The first observation to be made regarding the piece staged last night by the Hughes Comedy Company is that it is happily aamad. Thoro is a kind of story which bogins with its head in the clouds and ouds with its tail in the air, so to speak, but it is a orazy story with no flesh on its boues. "Fiddle Dee Dee" hits it off very finely.
