SOME FINE SPECIALTIES
Mrs. Haldorn Will Take Part-Grand
First Part-The Georgia Minstrels
Come on Tuesday-The Week
at the Union Family.

Tomorrow night the Home Talent
minstrels will hold forth at the Mar
garet and every indication points TO
a crowded house and a successful per-
Torrance. The sale of seats was begun
on Friday and already big blank space
is noticeable on the house plan. The
demand for seats increases as the time
for the production draws nigh and by
Monday noon, it is safe to say, there
will be but few seats left
The gentlemen who are to take part
in the performance are putting all the
time possible into rehearsing their parts,
and they have become so thoroughly
familiar with their lines that there is no
possibility Of a slip. The solos have
been selected with great care and they
are for the most part new to Anaconda
audiences The members of the company
will have one more full orchestral re-
hearsal before Monday night. While
this is considered by some to be entirely
unnecessary. the gentlemen hope by so
doing TO avoid any possible opportunity
for unfavorable criticism.
Mrs. Haldorn of Butte will lend grace
and dignity to performance which is
high class in every way, and no mention
need be made of her qualities as a
singer.
The list of specialties will include an
Irish song and dance by two professional
artists. excellent quartette work, musi-
cal, knockabout and pantomime work,
particulars of which cannot be ade-
quately described
r. c. Logan Of Butte will take the
heavy bass work. MIR. Logan two
years ago secured the first prize in
song competition at Denver. where he
sang before an audience of 10000 people
Extra pieces have been engaged for the
orchestra. including Mr.. Bay. the cele-
brated trap drummer from Butte, ana
no pains have been spared 10 make the
performance first class. Those who
adopt this plan Of assisting the poor and
needy Of Anaconda will do something
that they will never regret.
Love is not what 1t used TO be-" so
sings the poet. Well. perhaps the poet
Is right. for love has, no doubt, changed,
as have great many other things But
there is one thing in particular that has
not changed and positively remains the
same. and that is the excellence of the
entertainments presented by the Georgia
MINISTRIES, who will appear at the Mar
garet on Tuesday night The annual
visit of the Ministries is always elassed
as an event of the theatrical season, and
unusual enthusiasm has been aroused
THIS liiile through the laCt OF the al
ways reliable" show coming with even
stronger company than ever before.
1t would require too much space to
mention the names Of the entire COM
pany; however, 1t is sufficient to say
that an enjoyable performance may be
expected, for the Georgia mnstrels
never disappoint.
