SP0RTED THE
 BURNT CORK Society Young Ladies Appear as Black-Faced Come
 dianS.
A Splendid Entertainment Given by Golden West Booth of St.
 Patrick's Bazaar

Young ladies can don the burnt cork | the gaudy raiment and the fuzzy wig typ. ical of the days befo' de wah,' and sing | laugh, crack jokes, rattle the bones and tambos just as well as the members of | the sterner sex. This fact was clearly demonstrated at the ladies' minstrel en- tertainment given by the members of Col den West Booth in Native Sons Hall last night for the benefit of St. Patrick's ba- Zaar.
 When the curtain rose the house was crowded in fact. many persons In the rear of the hall had been shifting uneasily from one foot to another waiting anx- iously for the show to begin and envying their more fortunate fellow-beings who had come early enough to secure seats. The scene on the stage, while made up wholly of gaudy colors. was so harmo- niously blended as to be most pleasing to the eye. There was a bewildering array of scarlet coats and waistcoats against a dark green background of palms and ferns framed in by smiling faces-smiling and pretty even though they were black ened and polished till they rivaled ebony and disfgured by abnormally large paint ed red mouths. There was a clash from tambourines and cymbals. a murmur of delighted applause from the audience. and the show began.
 Of course, as in all good minstrel shows, music held sway. The coon song, the top ical song and the sentimental song were right there, and there was just enough of merry jokes and witty sayings and bright local hits to evenly balance things. The coon girls were well up in their work They laughed, fouted, jigged and rolled eyes which looked large and white in the black cork setting in a manner which would have done credit to the most pol ished belles of the plantation. The la dies, however. may not wear all the lau relS of the occasion, as one of the hits of the evening was made by Master Fay Dougherty, a juvenile member of the sex which is allowed to vote and smoke cigar cites, who appeared as a swell masher. rigged in style that would win any cake walk and strutted across the stage, swung his cane, swelled out pompously and sang about his baby in manner which drove the audience frantic.
 The programme was as follows;
 Opening overture by the entire company; T Loved You Better Than You Knew" Miss M. r: Westhaus; 'Mammy's Little Pumpkin Yer Man?" Mable Norton: Loves Serenade." Mrs M Frances Brennan: I'm the Warmest Love You Best.' J. O Bren: "Ambolina Snow" Newman Sisters; Sunset" Miss Etta O O'Brien: That Black Man From Troy Misses Jessie and and Janette Finnie; fancy dancing, Miss V. Stack; comic selections.

 Miss A. Hoyne made flrst-rate con- versationalist and Misses Jessie Finnie Tessie Smith handled the bones. while Misses Mamie Wells. Jeannette Finnie Mamie Sheehan and Nellie Oakes pounded the tambourines. The stage was under the management and direction of T. G. Eggert.
