or fashion cut. Hats and other be-
longings found elsewhere may be past

The COIOred Minstrel Show.

There was curtain CALI at the En-
Ipire theatre Wednesday evening before
the end of the first performance of the
minstrel show. The call came from Mr..
Peters, house manager, who was not in
love with the bill and to add to his wrath
he detected the blacks in an attempt to
cut corners i'll running the bill. The
curtain was ordered down and the aud
fence was dismissed, but not till after the
Manager informed those present of the
attempt to cut the performance and that
the same was no up to expectation. He
then directed them to the box office to
get their money back, which was GER
tainly fair on the part Of Mr.. Peters and
shows that he caters to the patronage of
our theatre-goers only on the merits Of
the productions offered. The present
bill is worthy one.
( In connection with the minstrel show,
we wish to add that we have in the city
pious chap who takes notion to sally
forth and gaze in the direction of the
f0ot-ights just about once In five years.
The coincidence of a minstrel shoW ap
pearing on the anniversary Of the bir'h
of Abraham Lincoln, prompted the at
oresaid pious chap to the memory OF
Honest Abe. In his own language he.
puts it thus: Nope, I'll never forget
Lincolns birthday again! AT
ter witnessing a fraction of the show
and returning home, looking upon my
portrait of Lincoln, | was tempted to
turn the face to the wall. The perfOr-
nance CARED all who were there. 1t
was indeed tipskalarious on the bozlne."
Asked what was meant by the final term
we were told to have any inquirers call
next week at o'clock for such infor-
nation. Guess from all accounts, it
wasn't a Fields minstrel.
