Y. M. c. A. MINSTREL
AT GRAND TONIGHT
Big Aggregation Of Local Talent and n
Program That You VIII be Long
Time Forgetting.

What was pronounced as one Of the
very best shows that has been given
at the state hospital for years was that
given by the Y. M. G. A. minstrels last
night. For three hours the hospital
people were entertained, and the high
est appreciation OF the work Of the
merrymakers was shown.
One of the asylum medical staff. in
speaking Of the performance today,
placed special stress in his praise Of
the work of DR.. Epley and the black
face comedians. The jokes are said to
be remarkably clever and the work of
DR.. Bpley as an interlocutor inimit-
able.
The song hits of the evening were
new and cleyerly executed. The troupe
numbers among its singers the best
talent in the city. The members were
encored time and again by the audi
ence, and the troupe was invited TO
give another show. This will probably
not be done this year, but If another
show is gotten up next year the hos
pital people will probably be accom-.
modated. All in all, the troupe made
a decided hit.
