three days in "A Yenuine Yentleman," by

story Of the play. is as follows: Gordon
Castle. ex-minister to Sweden. returns to
America to engage in mining in Idaho. With
him on the steamer are two daughters. Jes-
sic and Mrs. Florence Nelson, whose hus-
band is manager of the Golden Rock mines.
During the passage over Mr.. Castle meets
Sven Hanson (Ben Hendricks), who once
saved his life, and whom he introduces to
his daughters. On the same steamer also
Is Baron RosenkranZ, who has been sent to
Anerica by a German syndicate to %investi-
gate their mines. The baron pays marked
attention to Mrs. Nelson, while Sven leans
toward Jessie. AT New York the vessel is
ordered into quarantine. The ex-minister is
IN a state OF distress, as he has with him
important documents which must be deliy-
cred In Washington the following day. Sven

rescue. He discovers in Nelson a long-lost

and gives him the money. The third act
shows the Golden Rock mine. with a strike
among the workmen. In the fourth act

play Is said TO be highly diverting. with an
abundance of comedy. The production is
under the direction of Arthur c. Aston,
who for two seasons past has successfully
piloted "Tennessee's Pardner."

Mr.. Markham's verse. which consists of a
succession of social and moral conundrums
to which no answers are given, nor desired

labor, instead of being the necessary fulfill

a tyranny of human invention, devised and
enforced by one set of men, designed by
him as lords and rulers in all lands, for the
purpose OF holding the rest of mankind In
abJect submission to their blind greed, and
that the most conspicuous victim of this
tyranny is the man with the hoe-though
why the man with the hoe, rather than the
man with the hammer. the pick, the broom.
or any other Industrial instrument, we are
left to conjecture.

William II. West. Now If there is one man
IN this country capable. by reason Of long
study and the possession of historical litera-
ture bearing upon the subject. Of answering
that question il is Mr.. West. who will ap-
pear at English's the last two days of this
week with his celebrated big minstrel
jubilee.
You would naturally suppose that that
would be an easy question TO answer" was
his reply. but as a matter Of fact there is
not in existence any complete record or
history OF negro minstrelsy, although II had
It's birth in this country and is but little
