FIELD MINSTRELS
BETTER THAN EVER
Large Audience at the Grand Thor
Ouehly Enjoyed Them Last
Night.

AL G.. Field came back to Tulsa last
he and his minstrel troupers can 20
over the same route year after year
and play to capacity houses. The show
Mr.. Field has this year is quite up to
the standard of the organizations he
has headed for the past thirty years
and every seat In the Grand was filled
when the curtain ascended.
Life on the Levee" is the title of
the first part, during which "a realistic
tableau of the famous race between
the two old steamboats,, Robert II. Lee
and NatcheZ Is shown, while songs
reminiscent of the early days of min
strelsy are introduced. Following the
race short history of the event is
related by the interlocutor while the
scene Is changed to represent the in
terror of the grand saloon or cabin
of the Robt. f.. Lee.
When the lights flash on the or
chestra Is discovered on raised plat
form In the rear and the minstrels
seated in the time honOred semicircle
and dressed in colonial costumes of
yellow satin and lace. The arrival Of
the fun corps (those ebony hued joke
smiths possessed of nimble feet) starts
the show off in good style and the fun
never subsidized.
The Field choral ensemble was all
that could be asked. The harmony
was excellent and the soloists were
encored repeatedly 81 Love You
Best of ALL" by Walter Sherwood; I;
"The Little Grey Mother" by Jack
Richards, and Mothers Rosary"
by John Worland, stood out prom
inently.
An excellent olio featuring above
the average dancing and musical nov
elites. concluding with laughable
sketch entitled "Auntie SINNERS
Chicken Dinner Party or Peace in
Mexico" and followed by a series of
patriotic tableaux, sent the crowd
home well pleased.

by medical research men who have
been experimenting TO determine the
carrier and transmitter Of the disease
according to an announcement tonight
by DR.. Haven Emerson, city health
commissioner,
The commissioner stated that eX-
periments with almost all bugs and
vermin had been abandoned as OF no
value, this idea having first been sus-
gested by Or. Mark Richardson, secre-
tary of the Massachusetts department
of health, who lost two of his children
by the disease.
"The flea theory is based on careful
observation DR.. Emerson said, but
the supicion has not yet been fully
verified"
1t was learned also that Professor
c. r. Brues of Harvard University
who studied the disease here for six
weeks, is work on the flea transmits

Football Teams Line Up
For Final Gridiron Battle

The Missouri-Kansas combat will
be the twenty-sixth annual contest
between these teams. The past rec
ord shows Ia victories for Kansas
against 6 for Missouri, with games
resulting in tie score. This season
Kansas has lost two games, while
Missouri has been defeated only once.
The majority of the critics, neverthe-
less. pick the Kansas eleven to bring
home the bird with the gravy. The
prediction is based on the handy man
ner in which the Jayhawkers wrecked
the strong Nebraska machine and on
their ability to hold the Kansas Ag-
gies to a to score. The last named
team defeated Missouri to 6.
This is the way the rival teams
have performed this season:

Al H. Wilson, the singing dialect
comedian, and capable company
will present the new Irish song play
my Killarney Rose" at the opera
house on Tuesday, December 5.
This latest offering of Mr.. Wilson's
was written by Herbert Hall Wins
low, who has an enviable reputation
as writer of successful plays. The
atmosphere of 'My Killarney Rose"
is purely Irish in character ana is en-
HANGED by appropriate stage settings
and a number of electrical effects new
to stage craft.
Around the plot of the play which
is said to be ingenious, the author has
supplied an interesting story through
which is drawn well defined threads
of pathos and comedy. This new de-
parture from the former offerings of
this favorite comedian bids fair to
outrival in success anything he has
heretofore produced, since it offers a
new field for his versatility.
A number of new songs will be in
troduced during the action, the titles
being "My Killarney Rose" "The

fans will see a boxing treat.
The fireworks begin at $50; after
couple of prelims, the evenings en-
tertainers will be introduced and
the rest will be bit of classy hand
work.
