Mr. Nate Salsbury's latest and greatest
creation, Blake America," Will be the at
traction at the Convention Hall all next
week. Probably there was never a Show
organized that has received the indorse-
nent of the pulpit as has BLACK America
Mr. Salisbury has in his possession hundreds
OF letters from the most prominent Clergy
men in New York commencing the enter
tainment in the highest terms.
When the clergy take hold of a public
entertainment 1t is certain 10 arouse an
interest among all classes. There are many
church-going people who VIII be attracted
to the show by the Endorsement of the clergy.
Mr.. Salisbury has one letter from clergy
man who states that he has travelled all
over the world and has never seen more
moral and amusing exhibition. He further
states that be will take the greatest pleas
ure in advocating its merits to all the men,
bers or his congregation.
Too much praise cannot be awarded the
magnificent chorus of 900 voices. ANY
lover of music who fails to hear it will
lose one of the greatest treats of his life.
Mr.. Salisbury is particularly desirOus that
the public understand that Black America"
is in no sense minstrel show. The total
lack of effort toward dramatic effect is
evident in the exhibition, and the negroes, so
FAR from being actors, aremerely Y presenting
TO the audience their actual common place
every day life.
To one who has been through the Sunny
South and seen the negro in his own home,
this statement implies great deal. And
for those who have not yet journeyed below
the Mason and Dixon line it is only neces-
sary to state that the songs and dances, the
antics and scrambles are the productions
of the momentary moods OF the artists.
The negro is seen exactly as he is in his
own home, BLACK America" is instruc-
tive, entertaining and refined and should be
greeted by large audiences.
Markos continues his entertaining hyp-
motto exhibition at Odd Fellows Hall.
Fair audiences nightly have witnessed his
remarkable display of the mesmeric pow
er. and really demonstrates to a remark
able degree the mysterious influence over
others. Some ludicrous scenes are caused
by the queer actions of the subjects, and
serve to enliven the entertainment.

There is not better known man in Amer
lea than Bill Nye. Everyone who reads the
newspapers has become thoroughly ac-
quainted with Bill owing to the humorous
articles he writes describing his adventures.
The pictures in the papers portray Nye
(that is really his namel as knock-kneed,
bald-headed, spectacle-wearing specimen of
hunia nifty, but Bill Nye. or Mr.. Edgar VIII
lam Nye, is an able journalist, who, by his
keen wit and humor, has risen to the top
of his profession.
His droilery is essentially his own. He
has crea ted a school his own, in which he
differs materially from the other great
American humorists. Everyone who has
read his funny sketches enjoys them.

junction with another brilliant genius,

This is indeed the electrical age. Now
it furnishes the foundation of a play.
Danicla Harts drama, Government Ac-
ccptance,' which Stuart Robson presents
at the Lafayette Square Opera House Mon
day evening, ,hasmuch to do with electricity.
Theleading character Robert Gordon, which
is assumed by Mr.. Robson, is that Of an
inventor, a young society man who, through
force OF circumstances, is obliged to de-
pend upon his own exertions for an exist
encc. He studied electricity as a hobby:
he uses his knowledge as a necessity, and
secures employment as an electrician IN the
Navy Yard at Washington. He Is i So
cicty man, nevertheless, for the fashionable
world looks upon him as one working for
pleasure. not bread, ard serious and comedy
scenes result.
Act l represents a fashionable recep-
tion in all its splendor, where the nagnfi-
cent gowns Worn by the ladies VIII be 4
delight to many a feminine eye. In the
midst of this gay scene the young inventor
forgcts his surroundings-so thoroughly is
he i'll love with hisprofes>ion-thatn lie mounts
a ladder In the midst of Il dance 10 repair

comedy, relieved here and there by pure
sentiment and pathos. As the young III
ventor, Mr.. Robson has a character thor
oughtly in keeping with his genius. af-
fortling him opportunit les for good work
wholly in unison with h is genial nature.
The characters are all in capa bic ha nGs, end

SHE FORGOT THE BABY.

A rather amusing story is told
on young society matron. The
daughter of wealthy and indulgent
parents, she had never known a
care until she assumed the respon
sibility of housekeeping at the
time Of her marriage a few years
ago. She is now a mother. Her
younger sister was seen recently
in street car with child in her
arms.
"Whose baby is that :" inquired
a friend, who was rather aston
ished to see the young lady taking
care of child.
ooh, it is sisters she replied.
''She was out at the house last
might, and when she left for home
forgot the baby. I am taking it
TO her now"
"But how did she forget her
baby r inquired the surprised
friend.
"She knew she was forgetting
something when she left, and
could not think what it was. -"

The subscription list to raise
the $4,000 stock for the Silver
Springs road is circulating merrily
today When seen by the STAR
reporter today at q o'clock it
contained $500. Mr.. Martin
told the reporter today that this
amount of stock was all they want
ed taken in Ocala-that they had a
man who would build and equip
the road at a cost of SIS. if the
people of Ocala would take $40, 900
worth of first mortgage bonds
and it seems from present indica-
tions that this is foregooe con-
clusion. The party who is backing
the scheme and proposes to build
the road is, a railroad supply man.
consequently one well qualified to
carry out the scheme and to make
a practical estimate upon the cost
of building the road. They expect
to have the road in operation by
January I. Mr.. Anderson feels
confident that the road will be
built this time. Hurrah for the
Silver Springs road We slipped
up on bonds, let US have a road
anyway. If it can be done without
bonding the city, all right. But be.
It as it may, we must have this
road.

of such maDas for a poor girl to sell

IL we ever solve this question OF civil

age and injure society in every

When society learns the lesson the

who injure society.

Now, il that is any argument. it may

development work and new machinery,
80 cents the Isabella mine for 1894,

a party pledged to the enactment OF
administration of such laws.
Tho two old parties, the democratic
and republican parties, have been re-
peatedly condemned by the American
people, but, as has been remarked, no
relief to the people came from such con-
demnation because in abandoning one
and flying to the other the victories thus
achieved, instead of affording relief,
only perpetuated the evils complained
of, and hence the demand for another
party to which men, determined to be
deceived no longer men of courage and
conviction and possessing the power of
self-emancipation, could go and work
out the political redemption Of the coun-
try.
The new party that has come and
has come to stay is the peoples party.
1t has come because you cannot de-
celve all the people all the time" II
has come in obedience to the honest
patriotic thought of the nation.
If there were those who believed that
the peoples party would vault into
power like tabled Minerva, full-growr
and ready armed to beat back the enc
mics OF honest government. they SHOULD
remember that the present is not an ags
OF miracles nor of mythology. Politica
parties are of slow growth, but If they
only the eternal years." but men who
will not be deceived, are pledged to
their final triumph.
The patriots in the peoples party
have a right to feel encouraged, be-
cause from 1892 to 1894 the gains in
the party exceeded a million votes,
establishing the fact beyond contro-
versy that you cannot deceive all the
people all the time"
