This afternoon the famous minstrel
comedian, George Thatcher, will begin
his engagement at the Gaiety theater
which will continue for three days with
a matinee daily. Mr.. Thatcher ar
rived in town last night, and his APP
pearance at the popular little Gaiety
theater is awaited with much interest
by his many Scranton friends. Mr..
Thatcher has not appeared in this city
since he was a member of that once
well-known firm and the conceded
kings of the minstrel world Thatcher,
Primrose and West. Manager Van
Osten certainly shows a very liberal
purse and a strong determination to
give the patrons of his theater the
best obtainable, and no doubt Mr..
Thatcher will be greeted most warmly
from the beginning and throughout his
entire engagement of three days in

gau2a company.
