The following notice Of AL Fields min
strels is from a Nashville paper: There
are some croakers who think that the
day of minstrelsy has passed. 1t is
true that there has been an evolution
in this class of amusement, and that
none Of the shows of to-day are typical
of the old-time negro Ministries. There
has been a change from what the ris-
ing generation saw ten years ago, and
it is constantly going on, necessitated
by the demands of the public to which
such entertainments appeal. In those
shows which are succeeding the
changes are for the betterment OF the
entertainment, and the best evidence
that exists TO prove that their day has
not passed is the patronage that they
receive here and elsewhere.
AL G. Field returned to the Vendome
last night with the best show he has
ever had-at least it is the best that
he has ever given here, and he has
made Nashville every year for num-
Der past. In the advance notices there
were made certain promises, all OF
which were carried out in the perform

pectations, and the olio is made up OF
