Negro MInstreIsy.
Fundamentals ,Journal7

1.-The old fashion Of minstrelsy is not
in demand except in a few of its feat
ures,'' said Lew Dockstader. NEGRO
minstrelsy has advanced and is more re-
fined. Perhaps the progress made by
the negro himself has had something to
do with this change. The negro of to-
day, as we find him in the cities, is not
the negro Of twenty years ago. He is
getting to be a property holder, a man
of education, with ambitions like a white
man. To find negro of the old fash
Toned stage pattern you will have to go
into places remote from cities and rail
roads. Some of the old fashioned negro
comedians will ever be remembered.
There was poor Billy Manning, the
greatest l think l ever saw. He was
born witty, and had the quaintest, rich
est humor l saw him last in st. Louis
a little while before his death. We got
up a benefit for him. He had consump-
ton and was dying on his feet, but as
genial and witty as ever. AID Ryman is
an old timer who is still in the business
"Carncross is well off in Philadelphia
Dixey has retired. Bernard is worth
100000 or more, and is dahbling in real
estate in New York. Duprez is running
hotel in Lawrence, Mass, and his for
mer partner, Lew Benedict, is yet in the
minstrel business. Matt Wheeler is in
Brooklyn, dealing in real estate. Billy
Emerson, still a wonderful singer, is
with the Cleveland MINISTRIES. Minstrelsy
has given many bright men to the
drama, opera and orchestra. William
Castle and Theodore Thomas have both
been negro minstrels, and SO has P. S.
Gilmore, who is yet bright enough to
work good amount of minstrelsy col
oring into his music. Joe Murphy, who
was great in minstrelsy at one time, has
made fortune as q comedian in Irish
characters, and Joseph K. Emmett, who
was also q minstrel, is wealthy as
Fritz -.

Baking by Electricity.

Bakers are now using the electric
motor as bread mixer, and are thus en-
aDled to do in four OF five minutes an
amount OF work that would otherwise
require hours of hand labor. A writer
IN a medical paper says he had frequent
ly obtained much relief from facial neu-
ralgia by applying al incandescent light
to the part affected. He suggested that
the lamp could also be used in poulticing
adyantageously. 1t could be laid over a
faxseed or other form Of poultice, and
constant heat could be thus secured.

A family of new wealth in Washing

of the family formerly lived in Michi-

the guest asked him to pass ito her, but
he shook his head.
