 Barlow & Wilson's idea of min strelsy is that it must retain all the picturesqueness of the plantation; must exceed in novelty anything known in vaudeville; must delight the eye by the beauty of it's stage en- yironment; must surprise and please the mind by the absolute novelty of its special features and the Spectacular character of it's finale. Such would be minstrelsy and such is the min strelsy they produce, and which leaves nc disappointed person in any of the large audiences that gather to hear these pioneers of modern minstrelsy each season. This grand Spectacular and gorgeons production of up-to-date minstrelsy will be the offering at the opera house Friday night, March 1.
