As "liI Eva" in the MInStreIs
(Watch Him Smile)

Who is there who is not stirred by
the sweet songs of old time min
strelsy; and who has not shed tears
OF laughter over the jokes and antics
of the end men. And then the mar
velOus specialites of the olio, each OF
which is always advertised as unique
of it's class. The farce for a wind
up, perhaps was never quite so hum
Orous as the show bills and pictures
led us to believe, but it was enjoy
able nevertheless. And medical
science has never been able to eq
ual its black-faced rival as a Destroy
er Of blues and that tired feeling"
Well, just another such show-the
sweet songs, the funny jokes. the
ious wind-up are all to be produced
in the Carson Opera House, Thurs,
day and Friday evenings next.
The scene setting itself is well
worth the financial and physical eff
fort necessary to occupy a seat.
Nearly three hours of solid enjoy
ment is guaranteed every member OF
the audience. Nothing has been
spared to make the entertainment
the greatest success of years. All
sorts of novelties have been worked
out in every detail of the program
from start to finish.
The orchestra, even, is out of the
usual run Of music producers. The
muse is arranged in original manner
and in itself will prove one Of the
attractive features of the evening"
In addition to the first part with
its magnificent choruses, will be
some original dancing. daring feats
on the trapeZe. startling illustrations
in leSendemain, etc, not forgetting
the burlesque on "Pinafore" which
the audience is expected TO believe is
