IN OLD KENTUCKY

At the Grand Opera House. St. Paul.
OF all the alleged American sue
cesses, there is none that equals Tn
Old Kentucky in popularity. For
eight years it has gone on playing
record-breaking engagements every
where, and it is now in the ninth year
OF it's remarkable career. It comes
and it needs not the endorsements
from other cities, not the puffery of
the advance agent. It is established
in popular favor here and elsewhere,
and it is sufficient to say that it Will
be presented by Manager Jacob Lift
with the original company and with
entirely new scenery gotten up for
this seasons tour. It is a sharp
dramatic and intense story, with in
telligent, consistent and distinct
able plot, sharp, contrasts, a strong
racing feature and a score of anus
ing: and excel1ently trained Afro
American boys. The plot is laid in
the blue grass region of Kentucky and
presents as it's chief figure, a simple
but warm-hearted mountain girl, who
has loved above her station, but with
the sincerity which brings her out
triumphant, not however, until she
has defeated the ends of vilIainy and
checked the impetuous but we11-mo-
tived young mountaineer in course.
which might have led to viIIainy, but
with restraining influence, quite as
well to generous manhood. ~

scribble, as he says himself, when he
was sixteen s'e and in his early years he

not as an author. Long before he was
old enough to understand much about
