The Band Benefit Minstrels.

The Norfolk Minstrels and the Ga naan Band drew a large house at the Town Hall last Friday night. The band of l5 pieces gave good open air con cert in the baud stand before the show opened. This was the first appearance in public of the present band and they acquitted themselves very creditably.
 The 27 minstrels gave very pleasing performance under the direction of Prof. A. E. Hurst. The opening was very nicely arranged and with an ex- ception or two moved along smoothly The minstrels were assisted by the vet eran, Jerry McEwan, who worked hIm- self into favor with the audience and tickled many rib. MT Corbably very nicely sang "My Beautiful Irish Maid. !" The six funny end men were Stevens, McEwan, Nash, Hollister, Perkins, Peck. The most taking features of the second session were the. "Three Old Sports," the banjo playing of the Eclipse Club, the singing of southern songs by Bland and Rice and the "Washer- woman's Reel" Joe Hollister was funny as usual, and our own artists, Bsckley and Thomson scored hit with their local gags and songs. The danc- ing specialties of O'Connor andKennedy and George Nash were we'll received, and the boxing of Blow and Decker, and tIe acrobatic work of Hurst and the two little Camps with Cole and At wood were all O. K. The Tennis Drill was very pretty with posings by Blow and LeMay. The Norfolk Or chestra furnished the music in the hall The band treasury netted quite nice little sum by the benefit and are work ing up to be good musical organiza- tion.
