striped and checked shirts, jeans, ETC., and
fill the stage in all the Characteristic aud
picturesque variety and abandon OF ven.

tAlnment which has been pronounced q
revelation in modern minStEelsy.n The
troupe is without doubt the best in its line.
The fun Is buoyRnt snd characteristic, and
belongs entirely to the negro. and those
who attend must expect to see an idea of
fun interpreted through the medium Of
African nature.
