STAMFORD

Stratford, April 15-At the meeting of Okenuck. tribe of Red Men held in Red Mems hall, town building, last evening there was a full rehearsal of the coming minstrel show which Is to be given by the members of the tribe on the evenings of April 23 and "A.
 The rehearsal went through without a hitch and to give the boys credit the show was certainly fine. When the participants get into their min strel costume= and appear before the footlights in Red Mems hall on the nights of the public presentations of the show, it is safe to say that they will score the biggest hit yet, and Okneuck tribe has given some pretty good minstrel shows in the past.
 George A. Fairchild is interlocutor of the show this year and George Spa1l. Charles S111irnan, John Graham and Robert Syrett are the end men. Ernest Wilcox and George Pease are ''bones" and "tambo'' respectively.
 Superintendent of Schools William B. Kelsey Is directing the musical end of the show and Asa Parketon is in general charge of arrangements.
 The rehearsal, which was held after the regular meeting of Okenuck tribe last evening, was polished to fine degree showing plainly the effects of MT. Kelsey's instruction in the matter of solo and chorus work.
 All that can be said of the show at this time is that if 1t is as good when it is presented before the public as it was last night, 1t will be one of the best shows ever given under the au- spices of the local tribe of Red Men.
