ence anywhere else in the civilized
world. Here in America alone has
the transplanted African been
brought into intimate contact with
the transplanted European. Other
nations may have disputed our claim
to the invention of the steamboat and
telegraph. but negro minstrelsy is as
indisputably due to American inven-
tiveness as the telephone itself. Here
in the United States it had its
humble beginnings; here 1t expanded
and fiourished for many years; from
here 1t was exported to Great Britain,
where 1t established itself for many
seasons; from here it made sporadic
excursions into France and into Ger
many; and here at last 1t has fallen
into decline and degeneracy and
a decay which seem to doom II to a
speedy extinction. Its life was little
longer than that vouchsafed to man,
three-score years and ten, for 1t was
born in the fifth decade of the nine
teenth century and in the second dec
ade of the twentieth it fingers super
fluous on the stage, with none to do
1t reverence.
Time was when the negro minstrel
held possession OF three or four
theatres in the single city of New
York and when a dozen or more
troupes were travelling from town to
town, and now they have long ago
surrendered their last hall in the
metropolis, and only two or three
companies wind their lonely way
from theatre to theatre throughout
the United States. The few surviv-
