Colored Troup Gave a Good
Performance Clever
Bicycle Riding a
Feature.

For the first time colored people last
night were sgiven an opportunity to
see play at the Colonial Theatre.
To say that they appreciated the privi-
lege is putting it mildly. The balcony
was set apart for them and every seat
was taken.
1t was in the truest sense a top
heavy house. Whether or not the
players PLAYED TO the gallery is a mat
ter of conjecture. but the gallery
thought so, and applauded to q man
and laughed and appreciated the funny
stunts, 70 a woman. 1.-THE company
giving the performance was entirely
composed of colored people, although
the manager, Mr.. Godall, is a white
man. The company calls itself 1.-THE
Policy Players and last night gave

thought it might have been called by
any other name and BEEN equally en-
joyed.
There are eighteen in the troup.
eight of whom are females. They all
sing and dance we'll. Some OF the
musical numbers were especially good.
The star is Salem Tut Whitney.
typical minstrel end man, who has
some clever jokes and was whole
show IN himself. Among the special
ties was fancy bicycle riding by Mont
rose Douglass, who is down on the
program as Champion Bicyclist. =
He deserves the title for never has
more clever riding on a bicycle been
seen than this exhibition given by
Douglass. He rode in every conceiv-
able manner. even propelling the ma.
chine while standing on his head.
Willie the wheel is in motion he climbs
through the frame and does all sorts
of splitting stunts. The most
clever of all, however, is his riding ON
one wheel detached from the bicycle.
This alone is worth the admission fee.
The performance was very good,
the lower floor was occupied by white
people, and nearly all seats were
taken. Tonight there will be change
of program, including typical cake
walk.

FROM ANNAPOLIS.
When You Have a Gold.

The first action when you have a cold
should be to relieve the lungs. This is
best accomplished by the free use OF
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. This
Remedy lique6es the tough mucous and
causes its expulsion from the air cells of
lungs, produces free expectoration, and
opens the secretions. A complete cure
soon follows. This remedy will cure a
severe cold in less time than any other
treatment and it leaves the system in a
natural and healthy condition. 1t coun-
teracts any tendency toward pneumonia.
