THEATRE FROCKS.

The quaint old frocks of last century were faithfully portrayed in the Concert Chamber of the Town Hall last evening, in St. Andrew's Society's portrayal of Graham Moffatt's "A Scrape o' the Pen." Cashmeres and tartans took the place-of the modern crepe de chine and rayons. Miss Lillian Lugton's first frock was a shepherd's plaid, edged with narrow "black velvet and a fichu of muslin and lace. The second entrance is in an almond green and white printed voile, rucked with alternate green and white on the panniered skirt. Miss Rita W. MacCullay was also in Highland plaid, with cherry and white checked bodice. The bustle was used with the black and white checked dress and a Paisley shawl was worn by Mrs. Budge. Mrs. Isabelle MacCullay wore a tan cashmere, with a claret toned velvet hem. Mrs. Margaret Howie's firs; entrance was in a cigar brown satin frock, with small fur muff and cape of sealskin, and brown hat mounted with feathers. The second gown was crimson satin and same toned fringe. Miss W. Russell wears a satin bridal frock of lilac, which had many frills and a bustle, and Miss Lee was in a ciel blue and striped wincey, with the oldfashioned Paislev shawl.
