Amusemeats.


Salt Lake has now witnessed one
more amateur minstrel performance
and given verdict quite in @zeeping
with former ones-splendId for ANA
teurs. The show given yesterday aft
ernoon and repeated last night was
under the sponsorship of Held's mill
tary band, and the two performances
were well attended by genuine old
fashioned Thanksgiving audiences, the
class of people who get inside the the
atre about twice each season, and
laugh themselves to death.
The performance opened on a pref
ty stage setting, the interlocutor
seated in a chair surrounded by brill
liant lights. and the circle attired in
evening dress. The effect was very
pleasing to the eye. Willard Squires
was the interlocutor and stage direc-
tor, and in his dual part showed the
results of long association with pro-
fessional minstrelsy. On the extreme
ends were Dave Doty and Johnny Ire
whela, who caused many laughs, Doty
being especially well qualified for that
position. ThewheIa worked up some
hilarity later in his monologue. The
solos by Ashworth, Squires, Robinson
and Siddoway were all warmly re-
cefVed. In the OIio. Hi Henry Held gave
a splendid eornet solo; D. Holt Evans,
late or "Cor1anton, gave a female i'm
PRESERVATION, which was clever in a way,
but more or less suggestive; one Billy
Mack" did a clog dance, and Bowers
and Madsen did some really clever
tumbling. The Squires quartette was
on the stage for about six eneores,
their singing meeting with the great
est favor of any act on the bill.
AS finale, Helds band gave three
rousing numbers, William Tell, :"
King Dodo" and the Anvil Chorus .
This was another favorite feature of
the performance.
There is talk of reviving the min
strels for one night next week, in
which event as large a house as that
of last night would probably be at
tracted.

These Summer days ii December are
not Just what we want to see. However,
we are all right yet, and it is better to
have this fine weather now than later
on. There was a general storm some
days ago throughout Utah and eastern

is good for plenty of water next season.
We are not liable to have two dry years

1t was reported in Battle Mountain
this week that Milo Slavan died in San
Jose, Cal, some two weeks ago. We can
not vouch for the verscity of the report,
but M doubt it is true for Milo has been
a very sick man for some time from
heart trouble and left for California
ahous a month ago in hopes that the
climate would benefit him.
Milo WAS well-l,ked by all who knew
him and had many good traits Of charac-

ing in a quiet market. Advancing raw
material aroused much anxiety among
purchasers Of cotton goods and there
were numerous inquiries for forward con-
tracts, but the volume Of business was
not materially increased. Agricultural
conditions are less satisfactory and II
the official estimate as 10 cotton is not
exaggerated the yield will not be large

Wheat is coming forward freely, though
receipts do not equal the abnOrmally
