TRINIDAD RoMpS
away WITH RATION
SCORE 26 TO 0

The Trinidad high school football
team won their first game OF the sea-
son Saturday afternoon. defeating
the Ration high school by the decis-
i've score of &c to 0 on the Ration
tieli. Four Weeks ago the two teams
played a to tie game and the re-
suit of Saturdays game plainly
shows that the local team has i'm
proved wonderfully since then prev
ious game
All last week Coach Kelley per-
sistently coached and drilled the
squad in making and breaking the
forward pass. and ii was through
this play that the New Mexican
eleven was defeated Saturday. The
game was exciting from start to fin-
ish and although marked by unusual
roughness no serious injuries occur
red. The local boys played good
football and succeeded In playing
rings around the Ration eleven which
,was considered to be the faster team
The weather was ideal football
weather. but only a small crowd
turned out to see the game and Trini-
dad rooters were more in evidence
than those who were cheering for
the other team. A large number Of
Trinidad fans accompanied the team
on tn train besides the large number
who motored over to the Gate City
from Trinidad.
saturdays victory has had the eff
feet of stimulant on the Trinidad
boys and they are now determined
to beat the Motne Vista lads when
they come here for a return game
Saturday OF this week at Central
Park. The entire squad is In better
condition now than at the beginning
OF the season and Coach Kelley is
confident that his proteges can take
the Monte Vistans into camp. Only

CLEVER AND AMUSING
Was the Big Minstrel Show Given at
the Temple Tuesday Night


Rich, rare and originl, and scream
ingly funny was the minstrel given by
local talent at the Temple theater
Tuesday night.
This attraction was given for the
benefit of the charity ward of the Ma
rion county hospital, and was a howl
| ing success. 1t was given under the
direction of Mr.. J. J. Gerig, that fact
alone being a guarantee of success.
There was capacity house, and the
minstrel fully measured up to the ex-
| pectations of the big audience.
The stage was very pleasing to the
eye, and was a big surprise to the
/ audience. The chairs for the per-
formers were draped in red, white
and blue. and the background was an
attractive park scene-The Ocala
Park-this scenery having been paint
ed by the Messrs. Collier. We hope
that this conception will soon be re.
allied, and that Ocala will really
and truly" have park as we'll as a
modern and splendid hospital, which
is now one of our greatest prides.
The orchestra playing so splendid
ly for the performers was as follows:
Conductor-Mr. w. w. Condor.
Violins-Miss Conner, Miss Bailey,
Fred Meffert, Ned Smith
| Flute-Leon Fishel
| Clarionette-G. p. Boutwell,
Cornet-D. E. Mellin
French Horns-M. A. TenEyck. H.
w. Tucker.
Trombone B. F.. Borden.
Saxophone-F. E. Weihe.
I Piano-NIiss Perry.
Drums-A. Melin
Accompanist-Geo. w. Martin, Jr.
The entire minstrel cast were the
! following real artists:
Interlocutor-George Mershon.
Bones-A. E. Gerig, Pat Anderson,
Usher Norwood.
Tambos-J. j. Gerig, C. L. Ander-
son, Frank Anthony.
Circle-MeBsrs. Pezzullo, Gates.
Cole, Cullen. Collier, Bruderly, Col
lier. Wilson, Cordero, Drake, Willis,
Woo drow. Wilson.
The company was splendidly cos
tuned in most attractive red, white
and blue suits. furnished by regular
theatrical costumers. and big chrysan-
themums were worn as button hole
bouquets.
After the opening overture. the fun
began, Mr.. Mershon proving an excel.
lent interlocutor, and the end men

have possibly been any better.
The more dignified solos and bal
lads were sung by Messrs. Cordero,
Pezzullo, Lewis Wilson and Fred Viii
son, all of the white-faced as well as
the coon songs being vigorously ap-
plauded. several of the songs and en-
cores almost literally bringing down
the house.
Messrs. Cordero aad rezzullo both
have exceedingly fine voices, and
have sung in Ocala number of
times before, and are always enjoyed.
This was the debut appearance of
both the Wilson's, and their singing
gave very rare pleasure. Mr.. L. P.
Wilson has a splendid bass voice and
sang splendidly, and Mr.. Fred VIII
sons beautiful baritone voice was one
of the best ever heard in this city.
Hanky Panky, burlesque on the
sextette from Lucia, sung by the en-
tire company, was one of the best
things on the program.
While all the numbers on the pro-
gram were simply splendid and very
thoroughly enjoyed, it was the con-
census of opinion that the rendition
by the sextette, composed OF black
faced artists, was the very best of the
evenings entertainment.
The specialties were all good and
enjoyable, beginning with some fun
and nonsense given in a very clever
and pleasing vein by Mr.. Frank An
numbers by Messrs. Boutwell,, Fishel,
Melin and Weihe were splendid.
The grand finale was a very funny
