MONTGOMERY CREATES A
FURORE AT OPERA HOUSE

Marshall Montgomery, the handsome
young man who is creating a furore
almost nightly az the Opera House this
week with a unique specially of a
very high order. Is an excellent typo
OF the college bred man in the show
business. Mr.. Montgomery was cut
out for a business career and had he
not chosen to cast his lot with the
mimic world. undoubtedly would have
succeeded his father as a merchant
prince. But In spite Of parental OBJ
lection and gloomy prediction Of friends
In and out of the theatrical profess
sion, the young man gave up his books
and his career TO accept a very small
start with but a meagre salary ac-
compartment In a prominent minstrel
Organization.
Unlike most tyros of the stage, his
success was immediate and from the
small bit to which he was assigned in
the chorus and afterpiece he quickly
rose TO be one of the features OF the
show. His wonderfully versatile talent.
including both vocal and Instrumental
accomplishments in music. "a gift for
comedy and mimicry and his thorough
training In the art of ventriloquism,
brought MIN speedy recognition. After
short season of remarkable success
with the minstrel company, he became
the recipient OF several flattering Of
fers from the vaudeville managers, to
which he finally succumbed and he is
this week just completing his first sea-
son in this field Of endeavor, which
has lasted forty weeks.
Mr. MOntgomcry's accomplishments
are so varied. that he could. il requir-
ed. go ON the stage of the Opera House
and give an entirely different act at
each performance during the week. and
score "a hit at every appearance too.
His masterful powers of ventriloQuism
are the result of constant practice since
he WIS thirteen years Of age. Such
thorough control of his throat muscles
has he. that Il is possible for him TO
deceive a person only a few feet away.
/ He has frequently given a practical
demonstration of this by taking his
dummy ON his arm and having IL keep
mp "A rapid fire conversation with him
while walking up and down the aislcs
right in the midst Of his audience, TO
the utter amazement OF everybody
present. His feat Of projecting his
voice so as to keep the dummy talking

accomplishing lie plays all sorts &
musical instruments with rare z ~.
but il Is on the piano that he pa aEic-
ularly excels. His various freak Bicks
on that instrument are quite refarS-
able.
Mr.. Montgomery is somewhft Of a
social lion and has been enYertained
by the most exclusive society in New
York and other large cities. He is
quite young. having but recently pass
ed his twenty-third mile stone and a
brilliant future in his chosen profess
sion seems certain to be in store for
him. He has made an impression upon
his audiences in Wilmington that viii
not soon be effaced and may be as
sured of a warm welcome at any time
that he has the opportunity 10 play
