GREENvnLE. MISS. SATURDAY. /,
BARLOW MINSTRELS
Gave a Very CreditabIe
Performance.

The Great Barlow Minstrels invad-
ed the city on last Monday. and that
night at The Grand gave very good
performance. The parade costumes
are natty and very pretty, and the
open air concert given on Brill's cor.
ner was grand treat. AS a cornet
soloist, Mr.. Coburn, the manager and
proprietor, ranks supreme, and lie has
an excellent band.
In the opening, or first part, of the
program the participants proved
themselves capable artists in their
different lines. Many encores were
given, Wolfe, Milton and McAnallon
responding to continued applause as
many as three times. Mr.. Milton,
comedian, has a unique way of de-
livering his goods which Immediately
caught on" with the appreciative
audience.
In the olio Varin & Thomas, Ro-
man ak mainpulators, juggled battle
axes, large and small, heavy and
light, In bewilde1ing confusion to
the audience. but they never missed
a throw, keeping perfect time with
the orchestra. Daily, Strong and
Chaney, triple buck and wing
dancers, gave as good dancing as ever
seen on any stage. Musical Ed Hays
charmed and delighted the audience
with his musical oddities. His best
selections wore "The last rose Of
summer" played with cowbells, and
"Why did they sell Killarney" rem
dered with sleighbells. The famous
Gloss Bros, Roman gladiators, pos
turing and Roman bar experts, were
probably the best feature Of the pro-
gram. The brothers are fine athletes,
and displayed wonderful feats of
physical endurance. The program
wound up with laughsble skit by
Tier, Burk and Mcdonald.
The Barlow Minstrels is strong
organization and is meeting with de-
sreved approval this season as they it
has in the past. ~

Body Lies in
Pauper'S Grave

The body of the unknown man, who
was found in the slough in East Port.
land a week ago, was buried at the
poor farm, no person having identi.
fed the man or claimed the corpse.
Coroner Finley has made every ef-
fort to locate the friends or rela-
tives of the man. but to no avail. Hun
dreds of people have called at the
morgue. many OF them looking for
missing friends or relations, but none
could tell who the stranger was More
than one thought the features were
familiar but none could tell his name.
The police theory now is that the
stranger committed suicide and threw
away every scrap of paper or ether
evidence that would show who he
was. How he happened to be found
in such an unusual position Is as yet
unanswered. While he had no valu.
ables on him II is not believed that
he was murdered or robbed, as there
no evidence OF foul play.
