Great Minstrels.

Barlow q Wilson's idea of min
strelsy is that it must retain all
the picturesqueness of the planta-
ton; must exceed in novelty any
thing known in vaudeville; must de-
light the eye by the beauty of its
stage environments; must surprise
and please the mind by the abso.
lutte novelty of its special features
and the spectacular character of it's
finale. Such would be minstrelsy
and such is the minstrelsy they
produce, and which leaves no DIS
appointed person in any of the
large audiences that gather to hear
these pioneers of modern MINSTREL
sy each season. The grand spec
tacular and gorgeous production
of up-to-date minstrelsy will be the

ONE MINUTE TALKS

To make business thoroly successful
has become a fine art. There are so
many different conditions that enter into
business nowadays that the merchant
finds competition growing more strsn-
uous.
The whole problem Of making the bust
ness successful once the stock is right is
to get the buying public into the store
This can best be done in Minneapolis thru
energetic and persistent Journal advertise
ing.
This paper goes to the people every day
and reaches the homes. It Is read by a
large. thoughtful, careful class of men
and women. who fully appreciate the val
lie Of money and wish to spend it in a.
way that will produce the greatest good.
These people are believers in The
Journal and have been for years, and
they look upon the advertising which ap-
pears in It's columns with confidence.
With this in mind they read the adver-

The grocers and general merchants
devoted the afternoon and evening yes
terday> to sightseeing and general
good time. They swooped down on the
ne wcapitol in six chartered cars at
3:15. W. I. Nolan Of Minneapolis led
the food purveyors to the governor 3 re-
ception room, where he introduced Pres
tive. After Individual greetings Fred
Mason, the secretary, introduced the
Tke governor 81 's safid in part:
" wish to speak Of one thing par
ticularly, the dairy and food depart
ment, which has become one of the
greatest departments in the gift Of the
governor Of Minnesota: 7 believe it
has been placed in the hands Of very
no more efficient than those who have
occupied the same position in previous
years. The policy Of the new admin
istration will be to educate rather than
prosecute, as we believe that you men
who have been the ones prosecuted in
the past are nearly always innocent of
any intended wrong, but have no way
to determine the true composition of
the canned and bottled goods you have
the next two years you will find little
to criticize in the department. and I
might add that I hope it will find little
to criticize in you.'
The lower house went into mock ses-
sion for the benefit Of the grocers. Rep
resentative Rockne introduced bill for
the dipping of jackrabbits, the dipping
tank to be established in the geograph-
ical center Of each township. The pen
atty, requiring jackrabbits who refused
to be dipped to be sent to the legisla-
ture for ninety days, or to become retail
grocers, worried the delegates a good
deal for fear competition might thus
be overdone.
After an inspection Of the jobbing
house Of Griggs, Cooper & Co., the gro
GERS returned to st. Paul. In the even
ing the members of the convention,
$500 strong, occupied seats at the Bijou
theater as guests Of the Minneapolis re-
tail grocers. The performance was
Williams and Walkers "1n Daho-
mey."

The Journals newsboys have been
invited to attend Friday evenings per-
Torrance Of '"In Dahomey," at the
Bijou theater, by Manager Hays and
Williams & Walker.
The success Of the negro production
in Minneapolis is Of striking charac
ter. There have been colder days dur
ing this engagement than at any other
time during the present winter, yet
houses have been crowded from the
opening performance, and there is not
the slightest doubt that the demand for
tickets is due to a highly meritorious
performance.
Music is the birthright Of the negro
race. Nearly every colored man or
woman can sing musically and with
catchy rythm The blacks on the banks
Of the Congo have their music, which it
may be asserted is about the only real
music ever heard out of the mouths Of
untutored savages.
A people that is musical by nature
necessarily loves music better than any
other art of civilization, and given q
company of negro men and women
whose voices have been trained in the
best schools, it is not surprising that
the result is SO good. Williams s. Walker
and their fifty highly trained singers
are about the best expoRents Of musical

PAY rs MEAGER
Government Wants First-Class Men
at Third-Class Salaries.'

Why are many Of the government po-
sitions offered under civil service rel gu
lations allowed to 90 begging9 The
question was answered unofficially by
a representative Of the civil service
commission today.
"The government desires frst-class
men at third-class salaries,'' said he.
As an example the position offered to
candidates from the twin cities today
was cited. It is desired to fill a va
cancy in the position Of scientific aid
in the bureau Of animal industry, de-
partment Of agriculture. To secure this
position. the applicant must be over 20
years Of age; must have had q college
course with a bachelors degree, includ-
ing certified statement in detail Of
in each; postgraduate course or spe-
cial qualifications, incl uding certified
statement of courses Of study pursued
and standing in each, and thesis or
other literature on scientific subject
bearing upon the work the applicant de-
sires to pursue must be written.
The munifcent salary attached to
this position is $3.50 year.
More federal jobs were announced
by the civil service commission this
mornin. On March Is an examination Of
candidates for the position Of curator

comedy on the stage, for. they know
how to sing and, how to dance. It is
hardly to. be doubted that the colored
race is a naturally equipped race Of
dancers as well as singers. Added to
these qualifications the appreciation Of
true comedy that comes of modern
education, and there is an aggregation
Of talent hard to equal. -.
The genius Of selection has entered
into the. Williams & Walker combina-
ton in. other ways. All the men Of the
company are fine fellows physically,
and nearly all the women are pretty.
Many Of them are beautiful, even ac-
cepting the rather strained code Of the
modern analyst. The girls Of the COM
pany are dainty and graceful. Their
costumes are of the most expensive and
attractive sort, and the entire staging
Of Tin Dahomey" is far better than is
found In the average musical comedy
attraction.
Williams & Walker are really clever
comedians. There is nothing like them
on the stage anywhere. They have
been hit from the time they made
their first public entree at Roster
! Balls years ago. Since that they have
played around the world and been well
received everywhere, especially in Lon
don, where they played 200 consecutive
lnightss at the arlstocIatic ShaftesbuTy
