An Intelligent Audience.

It is not often that we yield valuable
and clamored-for space to the review OF
a minstrel show, but the Haywood
brothers, who visited Little Rock sew
eral nights ago, demanded attention.
A very fair and decidedly intelligent
audience assembled. After a painful
overture and a song by a young fellow
who seemed to express himself through
a clogged and difficult quill, one of the
end men said:
"Mr. Rice, eff you wuz-ef you Wuz
comm down de street an a putty girl
wuster kiss you, what would you do y
"Why, I'd kiss her back"
'No you wouldn't y yelled man in
the audience, you'd kiss her mouth.
Give us something new"
''Mr. Rice" said another end man,
"what would you call man from
England ?"
"I'd call him an Englishman."
"Uh, huh. What would you call a
man from ireland ?''
I'D call him an Irishman.
"Uh, huh. What would you call a
man from Michigan ?''
"I'd call him a Michigander.
The audience groaned and man
called "Say, don't give us that old
Micbigeese business. ="
Thus discouraged at joking, for old
men in the audience had heard the
"gagsn annually since childhood, songs
were decided to be the safest means OF
entertainment. A horrible looking
thing came out with a banjo and said
"Goin' to sing you funny song.
Took my girl to a fancy ball the other
night. Didn't have but fifty cents an
was sorter slow in askin' her to eat, but
1 asked her an she said she wasn't
hungry but she didn't care if she did
take few lines. I had but fifty"
:" Oh, hold on, ;" cried a man in the
gallery. "We know all about how she
took oysters raw and plate Of slaw. :
Astonished at an audience that hat
ever before seen a minstrel show, the
manager at last decided to make {
favorable impression by introducing
something sensational, so he put OF
the old ghost trick where a fellow will
a sheet around him comes in. Tht
white man and negro had sa
down together and the white man ha(
begun the song about the old jaw bon,
when loud mouthed man, sitting nea
the door, exclaimed:
"Boom, coo, coo-hoo, hoo, y and jus
then the drum doomed and the negrc
jumped and said: 5000, coo, hoo
hoo, . and the audience groaned. Th
thrilling ghost scene was failure, ant
the manager thinking to capture tn
house with quartette, sent out a fel
low who looked like an unwashed rail
road section boss, short fellow with
high water jacket and two emblems o
ignorance and vocal incapacity. Whel
they began, the audience, almost to
man, arose and left the house.
This reception was sign Of encour
agement, fer it shows that people ar
at last frowning down on old and mold.
