ADJUSTMENTS.
Cork OBera.


When the curtain rose on the Introductory
overture last night, the exponents Of burnt
cork fun who make up the crescent in Bar
low & Wilson'S Minstrel company must have
been fattered by the immense audience be-
fore them.
The theater was almost literally filed from
pit to dome, while several young ideas might
have been seen elinging TO the skin of their
teeth as it were, 10 the gallery rail.
There is something about a first class
minstrel show that makes il draw EQUALLY as
well as a grand opera or plaster, and such
a show was presented by this company last
night. The audience laughed and howIed
itself hoarse at the songs, puns, wittieisms
and jokes, and by the way there was scarcely
an autiquated or galvanized "chestnutp in
the whole performance. The puns and Jokes
are evidently Of the new crop, most of them
having been just picked from the
fertile soil of this sort OF comedy.
The opening ensemble was very large and
tidy, as Hughey DOugherty would say in his
double-loaded sort nf a way, and, by the by,
we remember Hughey as a crack member Of
Carncross ~ Dixey's superb show in the
Quaker City in the golden days Of our mild
and hopeful youth, when the top perch of our
soaring ambition was TO achieve TWENTY-FIVE
cents wherewith to entitle us to a seat with
the gods, and yet be seems just as young and
merry as ever, having lost none of his magic
power to please.
As said the ensemble was fine, COMPRISING
no less than five bones and as MANY tambos.
besides the interlocutor and yocalists.
pleasing feature of the first part was the
novel manner in which the end men alter
mated. Interspersed with the Jokes, puus.
etc, were several comic songs and ballads.
rendered in excellent manner by the fine
vocal talent OF the company, the songs of
Messrs. Hall, Dougherty, Rankin. Barlow.
Wilson and Woods all being well received.
Among the most grotesQue and amusing
features OF the show was the roller skating
rink sketch, side splitting act which nearly
raised the roof of the house, the urbttr
rolling up like whirlwind. Mr.. z. M.Hau
is the prince of banjo performers, and his
playing last night was both artistic and amus-
ing. His imitation Of the Jersey MOSQUITO
caught them all. MessIs. Griffin
and Marks distinguished themselves as
being the best acrobats ever seen iu ST.
Paul, and Geo. Wilson who followed in his
crazy quilt &C paralyzed the audience. Craw-
ford and MeKirson and their four ace finale
are up To the highest notch in their busi.
ness. Griffin and Marks filing the hand in
great shape. Hughey DOugherty made q daisy
stump speech on the vicissitudes of life and
the musical performance following by Messrs
Rankin, Adams and Casey laid clear over
the deck
The entertainment wound up with highly
laughaole ourlesque sketch entitled Feed
Dora, being parody on Fanny DAveu-
ports play OF this name. II was a good per-
iormance all the way through aud il will be
repeated te-night. A ladies matinee will be
given tomorrow.

The venerable Senator Payne. OF Ohio. has
concluded that be would rather serve ont his
term in the senate than take a cabinet position.
We have no dosbr that this also meets the wishes
OF President Cleveland.
The foregoing from a Minnesota Republk

ployed to sneer at gentlemen Of the opposing
party. Long before Gov. Cleveland was
nominated Mr.. Payne said that nothing
could induce or tempt him to surrender his
senstorship, not even the Presidency. for
which be was most favorably and inhuen
italy mentioned. On account OF bis ability

To so administer the government as to lay

Incidentally alluded to the report of quarrel
between him and Hendricks, saying that
they did not in their conversation discuss
politics and that two men never parted more
pleasantly. This congressman drew from

ferring these matters until he retires from
