MINsrRELs GIVE SPLENDID BILL
Faust Company Are Favorites in
Americus.

- They came as strangers but went
away conquerors. Such can truly be
said of the Ted E. Faust Minstrels,
who appeared in Americus last night
for the first time. The imposing
street parade and concert was indics-
tive of good chow, and there was no
disappointment for the large audience.
The splendid '6rst part" caught the
multitude, as did every one of the up.
to-date acts following. The program
is replete with fine singing, dancing
and speciality work, and the attraction
ia one of the best ever appearing here.
