Pi Phi Hop.
Among the society events of the last week was the Pi Phi hop, which took place immediately after the initiation of Miss Edith Snow, who has followed the very wise precedent of her elder sisters. The hop was held in Journal hall. There were about fifty couple present and everybody had a most enjoyable time until about 12 o'clock, when the girls departed as they had come-in omnibuses.
Iolanthe.
One of the most notable events of the amusement season will be the production of the famous opera, Iolanthe, by a troupe of over one hundred children who have been trained by
Miss Georgia Brown. Her reputation for doing thoroughly whatever she undertakes to do insures success, and the entertainment will be unique and of a high order of merit. The play will be staged in the most complete manner with scenery painted specially for it by Rohe. The costumes will be the finest that have been seen on the opera house stage. The electric light arrangements, under direction of Prof. Blake and his assistants, will be novel and will add wonderfully to the scenic effects. Prof. J. H. Bell will be musical director, assisted by Mrs. Straffon at the piano and Buch's full orchestra. Taken as a whole it will be a performance that no one can afford to miss, and those who have never seen the Lawrence children in one of Miss Brown's plays have a genuine surprise in store for them. Next Thursday, Friday and Saturday nights, October 18, 19 and 20, are the dates. Box sheet opens Tuesday, October 16.
