The first entertain inment at the opera
house since its lease to the Florida Ly.
ceum circuit was the Hon. Luther Man
ship on Tuesday night. Mr.. Manship is
a most pleasing speaker. He presented
the old-time southern negro with such
exquisite accuracy that it really did not

darkey life. The same price of admission
as Tuesday night, % cents, reserved seats
50 cents.
