What is universally conceded to be
the most original minstrel show ever
presented for thc entertainment Of the
public is the new production which
has been made this year by AL. Field
for his greater minstrel organization.
While it is bold departure from the
accepted order of minstrel shows, Mr.
Fields conception for this seasons
presentation retains the salient fea
lures of American NIinstrelsy, with
most lavish display of costumes and
scenery. The "Olack" and white
face singers, comedians and dancers,
have an establishment of surround
ings that for artistic effectiveness
has never been equalled in any theat-
rical production either operate, or
dramatic.
The first part is presented in Il

dispatch to the Times says:

Foraker leaders opposed any reference
to the Senator in these resolutions.
Secretary Tafts managers went on re-

Interest that was created and the
amount of discussion that was carried
on when four years ago, It was an
nounced that Wright I.Orimer would
produce on an elaborate scale, the

The fact that Mr.. Lorimer has starred
in the shepherd King" with great
success for four seasons is sufficient
comment. Now comes the announce
ment that he &c to produce another
play. the title If which is "The Quick
sands"
1t was the opinion Of many persons
that "The Shepherd King" was the
vehicle through which Mr.. Lorimer
made his first appearance on the
stage. This however, was erroneous.
Mr.. Lorimer las served a hard and
trying apprenticeship of seven years
prior TO his appearance as an actor
manager in his own production.
The new play Is so different from
any drama produced within the past
ten or fifteen years that it should
create a sensation and achieve re-
markable artistic and popular success.
A play of wonderful power, it also
presents a searching analysis Of the
human soul in tense dramatic scenes
and creates a new idea Of modern
drama.
