BAND CONCERT.
CAMERONIANS AT LEE GARDEN.
FEMALE IMPERSONATOR.
P
The fifth promenade concert by the full Military Band, Pipers,| Drummers and Dancers of the Cameronians at Lec Garden was an- other success on Saturday night, when a large gathering attended in spite of the rain which foll earlier in the evening.
There was an added attraction in the shape of an exhibition of Orien tal and eccentrle dances by the well-known Russian artiste, Astroff. The dancing was splendid and the artiste captured the hearts of the roale section of the audience, who received a rude shock when "she” removed her beautiful auburn wig to reveal that "she" was a "he"! A finer female impersonator has not been seen in these parts for a long time, and Mr. Astroff was deserved- ly well applauded.
