MCINTYRE AND HEATH.

Mcintyre and Heath, the only living
genuine delineators of the style of
negro who flourished in the South in
the days before the War, are the stars
in John Cort S magnificent revival Of
George V. Hobart and Jean Schwartz
big musical novelty "The Ham Tree,
which will be the attraction at the
Grand Opera House on February 81.
These comedians, who have been be-
fore the public for over forty years
present the negro with all his natural
comedy. They long ago established
their right to be recognized as artists
and hold their position as leaders in
this field of entertainment. There is
no riot Of ragtime, coon shouting and
obtrusive substitution of counterfeit Of
the real negro in their performance.
They present a remarkable contrast to
the gprish, noisy style of their con
tempoaries 1t is certainly refresh
ing to see two men, with a few old
clothes and a daub Of burnt cork ON
the counteuances, create the genuine
atmosphere Of the Southland with the
natural touch of the negro, whose very
seriousness is productive of laughter.
IL is this quality in their performance
in "The Ham Tree" which raises
them far above the ordinary, and which
proves revelation to those who are
unfamiliar with their remarkable sue
cess as creators of innocent merriment
They certainly have no equal. Mr..
Hobart, in writing "The Ham Tree, -
took the famous old sketch "The
Georgia Minstrels," which Mcintyre
and Heath had been playing for sew
eral years, and wrote his play around
it. The result is one of the greatest
laughmakers the American stage has
ever known, and from the time of the
rose of the curtain till its fall at the
end Of the performance the clever art
lists keep the audience in continuous
roar of laughter. John Cort has given
these players a splendid production,
and has surrounded them with re.
markRble company of musical comedy
favorites.
