BARRE OPERA HOUSE,

Pure, clean amusement is what the pub
lie wants, and the greatest successes have
been built from those forms of theatrical
endeavor that the whole family, from
grandsire to child, can witness without
being confronted BY something objection
able or in bad taste. In directing the
tours OF VIM. II. Vests Big Jubilee Min
strels, which will be the strong attraction
at the Barre opera house Saturday after
noon and evening, Sept. 3, Sanford b.
Rlcaby has always borne this In mind,
with the result that the name Of the fam
Gus organization is synonym for all that
is refined, healthful and invigorating. 1t
is the trademark of lifetime OF endeavor
on the part of Mr.. Ricaby and is one of
the solid institutions of the country. In
no minstrel company the world has ever
known Is so much capital invested and it
is the largest of its kind travelling. In
William III. Vests Big Jubilee Minstrels
this season there are fourteen OF the
sweetest-voiced singers alone, headed by
the famous Charles Ernest the greatest
array Of balladists ever gathered together
on one stage. The end men and COM
edians are the biggist laugh-breeders
that ever set an audience into an uproar
Of meriiment, and they could completely
disorganize a solemn undertakes, conven-
ton. Costly European novelties, for which
Mr.. Ricaby has secured the principal cities
of the continent, will be found, and the
whole performance Is costumed, without
regard TO expense, In the most gorgeous
scenic setting and with barzarre electrical
effects The first part in eerise and gold
Is the most lavish and beautiful ever wit
messed In minstrel entertainment, and is
the design Of one Of the most famous
painters of the day.
