ELK MINISTRIES
MAKE A HIT
Two Splendid Performances Given In
the Auditorium for Benefit
of College Orchestra

Inc minstrel show given by the
Elks of Pullman in the Auditorium
Monday and Tuesday nights of this
week was a success from every stand
point Both performances were at
tended by large crowds, there being
many visitors from Moscow, Tuesday
night. Local and college people pa
tronlzed the minstrels literally and
all felt that they had received full
VaIue Tor their money, in addition
10 aiding worthy cause. The pro-
hts of the performances go to the
college orchestra, which will receive
a neat sum as the result of the two
performances.
Some excellent talent was shown
by those participating in the show
and predictions are made that a num-
Der of those who took part will be
compelled to leave Pullman to ac-
cept star parts with some of the
great theatrical companies. Klaw &
Granger, promoters of the theatre
trust had representative here to
view the performance and study the
work of those on the stage and to
The Herald reporter this representa-
tive stated that he had found some of
the best amateur talent it had ever
been his pleasure to see and hear
and he had wired his company for
authority to sign up several of the
men.

throughout. Some of the jokes were
