Hours of Minstrel Fun.

Cleyeland's Mnstrels held the boards
al the Opera House last night and de-
lighted packed house. The perform
ance reyoyed around Billy Emerson.
lIughey Dougherty, Luke Schoolcraft
and Barnie Pagan, four Of the funniest
lend mel" ever on the American stage.
The only fault to he found with the per
Torrance lay In the fact that these
shining lights of minst1elsy had too
little to do with it. In fact there was very
little OF the old-time negro minstrel
feature about it, and the white faces
out-numbered the black ten to one. The
costumes were gorgeous and the singing
good. Outside of the usual first part
the performance was simply iirst-class
variety entertainment, the most remark
able feature of which was the acTobatic
performance OF the '.Craggs." They
are Fix in number and their feats are
simply marves of strength, agility and
skill, the equal of which has never been
seen in Wheeling. and about everything
in the acrobatic line has been here.
