Negro Minstrels?

Small wonder, where there are so many people from the statcs,as We term it, where the negro flourishes in difyer- ent degrees according to his habitat, that a goodly sprinkel of etheiopian imitators should be ready ut hand.
 Small wonder too, that among music loving people where most everybody sings and as we say again, plays, and where mandolins and banjos are easy to buy, that lots of us should thrum the light guitar and brave the breeze with resounding bass and piping treble. Now do you know, as they say in the play of "The Tutor" that like all great manufacturing interests the musical people have made combination. If any class of people can get along togeth- CT in harmony it ought to be those who make it. and that's no josh. Wachtel the tenor was noted on the high c and he was no sailor either, but a number of our young people will do quite as we'll with lower register, in fact bet ter,as far as we are concerned, because Wachtel is dead. The boys are getting together all right, the music is in them and they are soon to be ready to dis course in earnest. Negro minstrels? Gosh. who'll prove it at his peril on my head? Yes SIT, the real Simon, middle man, end man, black man, chief. How are you this evening Mir. Bones? Now this sort of combination can give more pleasure to men, women and children for less money, for an hour or so than any three ring circus or blood curdling drama. Set your house in order be- cause if these people get glimpse of any foible of yours as they peep through crannies you will wish your too solid flesh would melt and resolve itself into dew. We shall have the love sonnets to the moon and something sweet about mother The banjo will talk jig step and help the soloist with "A hot time in the old town tonight Hear the min- strels, Interlocutor: Mir. Tambo 1 re- ceived from young lady in Seattle to- day beautiful bouquet. What pity we cannot raise the flowers here you know" Tambo: "Dars whar yous wrong Mir. Petars.

Tam: "Smart aint yer" ''Yes and he's the handsom est man in town, hear me-" Interlocu. tor: "You don't say so.' Tambo: Look here MT.

Interlocutor: '1 apologize Mir Tambo, meant to in- fer that 1 didn't agree with you. What is the matter with George Glow CT?

At meeting of the Fort Wrangel Gospel Mission held Dec. 2Oth, the re- port showed $42. 50 cash and some ma terial had been collected since the last meeting. A number of men have vol unteered to donate their labor.

 An illuminated Christmas tree at the church brought out every child with papa and mamma as we'll, on Monday evening. The occasion to many child will be memorable one. To please the grown folks, the two hours were enlivened with songs, recitations and instrumental music. As setting stood the green tree, loaded with gifts from fairy land. Capt. Willson acted as master of ceremonies. Every child in attendance and quite a number of gentlemen were favored with gifts. Notably, Dr. Davy, Dr. McAlpin, Eugene Flaw and c. F. Ingersoll. | he members of the Ladies' Aid Society deserve great credit for the success fully carrying out of their most com mendable undertaking. For it is com mendable to catch the hearts of the children.
